About Guild2Guild

Enables full functioning communication between 2 or more guilds.

Two users are required to have this addon for it to work (1 in each guild), however only 1 user per guild is required to have Guild2Guild for all members of both guilds to reap the benefits.

For example, guild chat from guild A will appear in guild B's guild chat, and vice-versa.


Important Note about Version 8.1.1 and above

Versions pre 8.1.1 may not work properly do to changes in the chat handler, you must update to at least 8.1.1, Thank you.


Features

  • Interface options - Shows All Allied Guilds, Current Relay Channel and Current connections.
  • Interface options menu
  • Information page 3 - how G2G works.
  • You can enable either guild chat, officer chat, or both.
  • Allows item linking
  • Completely secure since the transmission channel is via in game whispers. The public channel that you set is used for cross guild synchronization only
  • You can set the add-on to be even more secure by limiting the guilds that you will accept relays from (in case someone with the addon has characters in multiple guilds) (Gui coming soon)
  • Forwards messages that other addons send to the guild addon channel
  • More than two people from either guild can have the add-on running at once, in fact its encouraged to have multiple characters with the addon for stability.
  • Everyone with the addon will see the guild chat as though it came directly from the person that sent the message. Clicking on their name will have all the same functionality as the regular WOW UI.
  • If you do not have the addon installed you will see [Name 1][Name 2], 1 = the current link to your guild, 2 = the person sending the message.
  • Version 8.0.7 introduced a new feature - If there are NO Allied Guilds listed in the "Guild Info Text" then Guild2Guild will Shut-Down.
  • This has been added to ensure that Guild2Guild cannot, under any circumstances, randomly connect to other guilds.

Usage

To use Guild2Guild, just download and install like any other addon, and have a friend (in a different guild) do the same. Then, decide upon a synchronization channel, and set both of your G2G's to the same channel, like so:

  • /g2g channel relaychannel

Once the channel is set, simply enable G2G as such:

  • /g2g on

You should now be ready for intra-guild communications!

Guild Leaders

You MUST limit the guilds that you can connect to using a white list of Allied Guilds, and automatically set the channel and password by adding a string like: (below) to your guild information (through the guild options menu).

  • <G2G;C:CHANNEL we want to use;P:PASSWORD to keep it secret;A:My Mates GUILD 1,My other mates GUILD 2;>
  • Example: <G2G;C:Fredschannel;P:Flinstone;A:Death to the king,Lushness,Dire Dawn Raiders;>


  • Channel is the name of the channel you want guild2guild to use to coordinate relays and must start with a capital letter.
  • Password is the password for that channel and must start with a capital letter.
  • Guild1 and Guild2 are the names of two or more guilds that you would like to allow to connect to this one. (Guild names are Case Sensitive)

(Password is optional, you don't need to use it if you don't want to have a password.)

  • Guild to Guild will automatically promote people that are allowed to speak in the officer channel to relays. This is so that the officer chat can be relayed as well.

Known issues

  • Error in Achievements showing correctly!

History

A brief History of Guild2Guild - To the few very dedicated people that have maintained G2G in chronological responsibility:

  • Original Author - Elviso of Mug'Thol

Error Reporting

Please post all errors on http://wow.curseforge.com/addons/guild2guild/tickets/ and not on curse.com. Thank You

Important Note

Guild 2 Guild will not allow you to connect to another guild if you are not in a guild. I will not change this and any person attempting to change the code of the addon should be aware that ALL RIGHTS ARE RESERVED.

It is against the T&C's of Blizz entertainment for any addon to allow communication between Alliance and Horde. Guild2Guild will not allow, under any circumstances, an alliance guild and a horde guild to communicate.

    While I appreciate your exemplary ability to display sarcasm,  I never said anything about not being online. I asked if it could run on a lvl 1 WHILE ANOTHER CHAR ON THE ACCT IS ONLINE. But I'm sure that in your part of the world that equates to not being online at all.
    We'd tried running it on the mains, but figured the reason we were getting the errors was due to the bazillion addons both mains are running, which wouldn't be the case with a char dedicated to running that addon only. Didn't seem that out of reach to ask if it worked off accts or specific chars. Sorry if I got your knickers in a bunch.

  • #76

    While I thank you for your comment on sarcasm, if the addon is loaded on a lvl 1 and another char is online, the addon will not load, all addons only load, when the character enters the world.

    So No it wouldnt work this way.

    In regards to all your addons and compatability problems, I run 43 addons and have no problems at all. My guild puts up with testing this addon, For which I am greatly thankfull and Alvina and his guild do the same. 

    If you PM me with the "Channelname", "password" and "Guild names" I will send you back the correct line of code to paste into all guilds, "GuildInfoTextBox"

    *So this only works if both chars are online, which means everyone wanting to use it has to have it in order for it to always be 'up', if the two mains are not logged in, if I understand this correctly.*

    lol, 'omg an add-on that requires people to be logged on in order for it to work!!??!!' Are you actually serious hehe :P That's kindof a requirement of all add-ons isnt it!?! :D

    Having run this add-on since before Jax took it over, I can confirm this definately works, although I appreciate that it can be a bit tricky to understand the set-up at first. It's one of those things that, once you 'get' how it works, you can't understand why you couldn't see it to begin with! And it's not the easiest thing to explain in writing either.

    Those of you who are struggling, keep at it: you'll be glad you did once you suss it out :)

    We've been trying to get this to work for a few days now, and are running into quite a few errors with installed addons, to the point where it won't function for us at all.
    Is it possible to run this on a lvl 1 in each guild that has no other addons installed, and will it work if the lvl 1 is not online at all?

  • #69

    I am sorry to hear of your problems, but the addon works fine.

    Please follow the instructions for the white list and place these in your guild info box and the guild info box of the guild you are trying to connect to.

    There are no known compatability problems with any other addons.

    It will not work with a character not logged on.

    if all else fails, email the list of all guilds (case sensitive) the channel name you want to use and the password (also case sensitive) and i will create the white list line for you to copy and paste.

    In addition, telling me it produces an error but not sending me the error doesnt help.

  • #66

    Im putting all the info in correctly (i think) when i go to save, it says "This button is not working Yet"

  • #67

    Probably because that button does not work yet

  • #64

    Thanks so much for all the hard work ya'll do for us. I do have one request, and terribly sorry if it's a repeat of something you've already heard, Is there anyway you to make it so the guild calandars can be shared? I actually found another add on called interguildlink on the site that is supposed to combine the roster and calandar as well as the chat. Personally I would rather stay with you as I use a couple of your addons and I know you are dependable when it comes to keeping them up to date. So love ya for that Kiss Thank much for your time and consideration

    Interesting idea, and No Know one has come up with that one, I will look at the codeing and get back to you on that.

    We are testing an LDB display roster of Who's on line at the moment, still ab it buggy so not ready for release.

  • #70

    Nice. I work around the roster thing fine, but would be nicer to have to run less add ons for the same results so looking forward to your release on that. And thanks much for checking into the calandar thing :)

  • #58

    Is there a way to allow an Alliance and Hord guild to pass chat through RealID ?

    And if not is this sometime we may see in the futire ?

  • #59

    Ok FOR THE LAST TIME!!

    IT IS AGAINST THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF BLIZZARD FOR ANY ADDON TO ALLOW COMMUNICATION BETWEEN HORDE AND ALLIANCE, IT WILL NEVER BE A PART OF GUILD2GUILD !!!!!

    NOW DOES EVERYONE UNDERSTAND!
