<TWL> now has a x-fire clan page, www.xfire.com/clans/thewarlegends/. Please check it out and sign up if so inclined.

This could facilitate clan matches.... as FQ was saying its a great IM tool and voice chat within the game which could suppliment our public TS.

looks good - how does this compare to TS? Could it replace it? TS will always be available but hate to have to run another background program while in the game.

The IM feature: I hear it is lag free whilst in the game.
The voice chat feature runs independently on a "power users" puter (auto selects the highest speed connection).

Once your use to it's a rather smooth opperation.

Fel, just go to tools/options/ chat and in there you can bind the keys you want to use to activate it in game.

How to accept the invitation I sent them?

Post by Felony »

* How to accept the invitation I sent them?

Your must first have a valid registered email attached to their Xfire username.

* Verify email address?

Xfire is now requiring a valid email address for certain features of the website.
FYI, Hotmail account did not work or me so I used my provider just fine. But this explained why lol.
If you need to validate your email address, first add noreply@xfire.com to your email safe list then follow these steps:

Login to Xfire.com.
Click Profile.
Click Edit Profile.
In the 'Real Email' field, be sure your email address is correct.
Click Verify your email address.
Click the Verify button.
At this point an email is sent to your registered email address. Login to that email account and simply click the link in the email you received from Xfire. For security purposes, this must be done from the same browser and IP address you clicked the Verify link from.

If at any time you change your registered email address you will need to verify it again.

If their email is working and valid they will receive a notification that they have been invited to the Clan or Guild you created on Xfire. They simply click the the link in the email which should take them to http://www.xfire.com/clans/thewarlegends/

Under 'Your Clans & Guilds' they will see their pending invitations and can choose to accept or reject them.


Currently, Xfire supports two voice chat programs, Teamspeak and Ventrilo.

Teamspeak and Ventrilo have “one click join” support through Xfire. So if you have a Friend already in a Teamspeak or Ventrilo chat server, right click their name and select Join Teamspeak (or Join Ventrilo). You can also get this menu by going to Tools | Friends | Join Teamspeak or the Actions menu in a chat window.

If the Join option is greyed out, there is no IP address showing. Make sure you or your Friend talks for about 10-20 seconds in order for Xfire to see the network traffic to the TS/Vent server. Also check the Xfire Tools | Options | Privacy menu and make sure you have "Show my voice chat server to my friends" checked.
