A website this big uses a lot of bandwidth and needs a really powerful server to stay online day after day, for 20 years. Thanks for the support!

Description
This script is meant to be used in the room #Dangerous-Waters on
irc.quakenet.org using mIRC, a chat program.
************************************************** ***************
1. INSTALLING THE SCRIPT
************************************************** ***************
1- Extract "dwmp.zip" to your "Program Files\mIRC"
folder. If asks you to overwrite anything,
choose "Yes".
2- In IRC type "/load -rs dwmp.mrc", and if it asks
you anything, just say "Yes".
************************************************** ***************
2. What it does?
************************************************** ***************
This script is meant to be used in the room #Dangerous-Waters on
irc.quakenet.org using mIRC, a chat program.
Many times I have wanted to play a game, but the silent announcements
of new games made it easy to miss them when I had IRC out of focus
doing other things. This script alleviates this problem, while
also making it easier to start your own games.
Usage:
*If you would like to start a server, simply type "/hostdw".
This will alert everybody that has this script installed that
you are starting a new game, and it will even start Dangerous
Waters for you and put you at the Multiplayer Host Screen.
*If you like to join a game from IRC, simply type "/joindw IPADDR".
Where IPADDR = XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX . This will start up Dangerous
Waters and put you at the Multiplayer Host Screen. All you have to
do is select the JOIN Tab and click OK. The game IP you entered is
allready in the IP Box.
*When you play Dangerous Waters in Windowed Mode, you are hosting
and you have IRC still open you might want to notify others in the
channel that the game is up. Simply type "/dwready" and it will
send a message to the channel notifying everybody plus sending out
the IP again.
*When you host Dangerous Waters and your game is allready full type
"/dwfull" to notify everybody in the DW Channel that your game is full.
*If you are looking for a Dangerous Waters game, all you have to
do is wait for somebody to start one up, even if you are doing
something else, the script will play a unique sound to let you
know that a server is starting.
*Other features may be added at a later date, but for now this is
sufficient enough to make it easier to find games for Dangerous
Waters, one of the best naval simulations to date.
************************************************** ***************
4. Requirements
************************************************** ***************
Requires mIRC and Dangerous Waters
************************************************** ***************
5. Troubleshooting
************************************************** ***************
If you type "/hostdw" or "/joindw xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" and it alerts people that
you are starting a new game but it doesn't start the game for you, chances
are you have the game installed somewhere other than the default directory.
Simply open "dwmp.mrc" using notepad, find the directory to the game, and
change it to whatever your directory is.
