PSPirc


Well, I personally am an IRC junkie. I prefer IRC over other 'newer' chat networks like MSN or AIM. And if you're like me, you'll sure love aserto's newest homebrew - An IRC client for the PSP. And get this straight. It's not just ANY IRC client. It supports a multitude of features like:
  • DDC File reception
  • Multichannel support
  • Basic IRC commands support
  • Private Message support!
And just when you thought this was awesome, check out the upcoming 'planned' features:
  • Improved DCC support
  • Improved CTCP support
  • Add IRC commands
  • DCC multitransfer support
  • Multiserver support
I don't know about you guys but I can't wait to give this awesome homebrew a try. If you're looking for screenshots, here's one more.

And finally, the download link. You'll need Lua Player for this, so if you don't have it, grab it below. Plus, if you're using it on 2.0 or above firmwares, you'll have to use it with Lua Player 0.16. For the people on 1.5, you should be using Lua Player 0.20.

Download: [PSPirc v0.1b for 1.5 PSPs]
Download: [Lua Player v0.20 for 1.5 PSPs]

Download: [PSPirc v0.1b for 2.0 PSPs]
Download: [Lua Player v0.16 for 2.0 PSPs]

Damn

I hope this mod chip comes out ffs. I would use this nice IRC progy but cbf to load up GTA, load up eLoader, load up LUA and then load up the IRC client just to use IRC....

I feel so sad

I feel so sad for updating my PSP to 2.71 *cries* I had 2.6 before, and if this IRC app would work on 2.6 (when it gets released) I'm seriously gonna scream my lungs out!

nice

great work

gotta try

so this has direct client to client (DCC) file transfers? if so awesome. I wonder how fast the files will transfer? I guess it would only really be useful for really small files anyway cause who has the spare mem stix laying around to store the d/led files

Nice!

Nice program....but could we have a NON-Lua player program please?

agree with 11

excellent work but i downgraded to 1.5 so i could avoid having to launch loaders. Lua player defeats the purpose of this.

Yeah, this app is great, but the lua...nah
