Wing Commander IRC Server Open For Business

We're fed up with IRC servers breaking.. first DALnet, then Craplink. So we decided to do something about it. We are happy to announce that the CIC's server is now an IRC server!

Not only is it a home for the CIC's own channel, #WingNut, but it is a community server. Need a place for your fan project crew or Crius.net friends to meet and discuss things in real time? Just connect, join the channel that you want, and talk to ChanServ about registering it in your name.

We offer three wonderful ways for you to join in the chatting fun:
1. If you have a fairly recent IRC client installed, click here and hopefully you'll find yourself in #WingNut within moments.
2. If number 1 didn't work, try plugging the settings in to your IRC client manually. Server name: irc.wcnews.com
3. No IRC client handy? Use our JavaClient! Just click here and our Java client will drop you in #WingNut.

Problems? Let us know and we'll try to help. Don't forget to include details of any error message that you get and what IRC client you are using.

Enjoy this new CIC feature, and feel free to register your nicks and set up your own channels through NickServ and ChanServ.

Wing Commander Saga Looking for Voice Actors

The WC Saga mod is coming right along. Up next they need people to record speech for them. I'll let Tolwyn give you the update.

Considering the fact that we are close to release of volume 1 (5 of 12 missions are in the beta phase, there is a possibility that there will be two campaigns included), it is really important that we can fill gaps in the production.
We're still in need of voice actors, so if you have a clean sounding microphone and a good voice send us an email (Tolwyn@gmxpro.net). The roles we are wide spread from minor to main roles, so it shouldn't be too much trouble even for those who don't have a lot of time to dedicate to this.
If we find enough voice actors, the game will be released in two, three months.
Best Regards Tolwyn
