Ok a little confused. Is this the same as the actual lightirc client? or is this your own creation. Will the webcam module from lightirc.com work with this mod?

I'm getting the following errors showing up on chatbox.php in vBulletin 4.2.2 PL1 (using the premium no-branding version). Anyone else having these issues?

Warning: Function ereg_replace() is deprecated in ..../chatbox.php on line 40

Warning: Function ereg_replace() is deprecated in ..../chatbox.php on line 41

The modification is not compatible with PHP v5.4. You will need to replace that function with similar functionality.

See ...
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ereg-replace.php

See 'preg_replace' as a possible solution ...

Just got this installed and is we are getting this error message within the chat box on Windows Vista machines running IE and Chrome (works fine on my Windows 8 box.)

It sounds like the chat server needs to update something or is this something we can fix?

I get the same exact error, even trying to connect to the devs demo site... something is amiss here, uninstalling.

Tested on win8 on chrome and IE11 and firefox.

Searching google reveals that the irc network I am connecting to (foreverchat) might not be running the flash server required for this plugin:

I did finally find one irc that works, just too bad mine does not, oh well: blacklotus.ca.us.quakenet.org
