Xfire and it's users.
For game organising reasons, I was wondering how many Multiwinia players use Xfire.

It's a fine program and I'm sure many people run it.
However, I stopped using it after spring cleaning of my computer...trying to maximize performance in games and in general, for good or ill.
Is Multiwinia supported in XFire? Meaning, does it allow you to browse Multiwinia servers or join friend's games? If not, I'd rather use Steam.

Run the game in a window and use an IRC client with an 'always on top' toggle?RabidZombie wrote:Uh, no it isn't.
Someone should create an IRC overlay for video games...
Which would be much better than the steam set-up with MW. I'm forever opening the community window because I'm selecting powerups with tab whilst not thinking to release my finger from the shift key...
Whoever you vote for, the government wins.

they should, and the IRC overlay would be > steam overlay, however since it doesn't exist steam is the next best thing

But I usually still play games windowed so I can alt-tab to IRC easily, hurrah!
Indeed. And the reason I don't use IRC is becasue, no overlay and I run full-screen. It's pointless to alt+tab every time you heard a new message.
But it just came across my mind that Lithilk meant in general rather than in-game. In that case, IRC is better.
