TRirc can be accessed mainly in two different ways.

  • By using the in-game web chat client, which connects automatically to TRirc.
  • By using your favourite IRC client (such as mIRC, xChat, ChatZilla, irssi, etc.), that you have installed on your computer.

If you use a standalone IRC client, you will need to configure it with the server address and port number listed below under Technical Details. The TRirc server supports a range of common and advanced IRC functionality that you can make use of according to the documentation of your client.

If you use the TR web chat client, you will be automatically connected to the TRirc server and by default be joined to the main channel #reincarnation. The web client is accessible from the main menu (under Society) of each of the game servers, and from the portal server. You can change the default settings and behaviour of the web client including nickname, perform lists and theme on the IRC Options page, which is accessible through the Options page for each mage. The portal based client has a link to its options just under the chat interface.
