Getting Started

-

This is a short guide to help you with installing Chatty and getting familiar with some of it's features.

+

This guide will help you with installing Chatty and getting familiar with + some of it's features.

-

Download & Installation

-

You can download Chatty from it's Website. - The download simply consists of a .zip-file which you should - extract wherever you want to have Chatty. The extracted files include a - Chatty.jar which you should usually be able to double-click to - start the program (if Java is installed properly). (See the help - if Chatty won't start.)

+

Download & Installation

+

From the Chatty Website + you can download either a .zip-Archive which you need to extract or an + Installer which will guide you through the installation.

+ +

How you start Chatty depends on the version you downloaded and your OS, + but usually you'd double-click on either the Chatty.jar or + Chatty.exe. (See the help + if Chatty won't start.)

Update Chatty

-

If you already have an older version of Chatty and want to update, then - just replace all the files with the new ones in the .zip. - Basicially just unzip the .zip into the same folder and overwrite - all files if asked (unless you have some custom icons or sounds that have the same name). - You can also unzip it into a new folder (just make sure you don't use the old version anymore).

+

If you want to update from an already installed older version of Chatty + then you may be able to simply use the built-in update function which + downloads the most recent installer and guides you through the update + process. If you update manually, then simply extract the .zip or install + the Installer into the same folder Chatty is already in and overwrite + the old files.

-

Your settings are saved seperately in the settings directory - and are not lost when you upgrade to a new version. The new version should normally - automatically use the same settings without you needing to change anything. - If you are interested in what your settings directory is, - enter /openDir in Chatty. There is also a backup - folder in there with backups of the settings.

+

Whether you install Chatty into the same folder or not, your settings + are by default stored separately + and should stay the same when you upgrade to a new version.

+ +

When you start a new version for the first time it will open the + Release Information, which may contain + information about changes that could require your attention.

-

Please check out the Release Information for any changes in a new version that - may require your attention.

- -

Note: If you downgrade to an older version of Chatty, some settings (that the older - version didn't have yet) may be lost. So make sure you don't run old versions of Chatty - without knowing what you are doing, if you have changed settings unique to newer versions.

Note: If you downgrade to an older version of Chatty, + some settings (that the older version didn't have yet) may be lost.

Creating a login

If you are starting Chatty for the first time, you will have to request - login data from Twitch so Chatty can connect to chat for you and do other - stuff like show live streams you follow.

Chatting and Moderating

-

Chatting is pretty straightfoward as you would expect from any chat program, - however the inputbox has a few useful features. Enter the beginning of a name - in chat and press TAB to auto-complete the name. - Press Up-Arrow key to go back to previous stuff you entered.

+

Inputbox Features

+ -

To moderate a chat, you can of course use the regular moderations commands - like /ban, /timeout and so on, but a much more - convenient method is to click on the name of a user you want to ban/timeout, - which opens the User-dialog, containing several moderation - buttons as well as the recent messages of that user, so you can quickly check - if you are actually timing out the correct user.
