This is quite a basic version in comparison to the other ones i had seen for the older boards , but i wanted something fast so i did this myself.
No i havent released a hack before , so there may be bugs in this , but it works fine on my own boards , and i dont see there being too many issues with this for anyone else.
Updates - Guests can now log in - this was not available in the first version
Additions - The things added in version 2 are as follows
* Option to choose ports.
* Option to choose language.
* Guest login option added
* Errors with blank pages fixed
This isnt too hard to do - as far as i can tell anyway :s

Next you will need to open the
chatconfig.php and fill in the values for this as required by your server.
Some people dont host chat on the same site as the server, so as such there are two different site values , one for the main site , the other for chat :D
Once you have the chatconfig.php edited , upload the 4 other files (not this one) to the
root of your forums (/public_html/forums/ ).
Finally a Template addition
add the link to chat to your
Navbar :
Find :
Code:
<td class="vbmenu_control"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/nav_memberlist.gif"
alt="Member List" border="0" /> <a
href="memberlist.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[members_list]</a></td>

<td class="vbmenu_control"><img class="inlineimg"
src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/nav_chat.gif" alt="Chat" border="0" /> <a
href="chat.php">$vbphrase[chat]</a></td>
<! ## Digichat Login hack for Vbulletin 3.5 by DjTaz (end) ## >
