Hello,
ArgonathNow is an initiative to connect people to Argonath even while they are not in-game. This will eventually include chrome apps, desktop apps, and even mobile apps. The first phase of our app is coming very shortly but you can begin immediately with getting it ready. We'll be allowing you to sync in-game CB radios with an external chat app called Telegram using one of our bots. You'll need to add our bot (@ArgonathRPGBot) to your group chat, and complete a simple verification process. We are still working on tidying up some lose ends but this should be available later this week.
Want to get started now? Add @ArgonathRPGBot on Telegram, and type !getstarted.
Telegram is available for Windows, Mac OS, Android, iOS, Web and other shit people regrettably use. You will need a phone number to verify the signup process with Telegram. You however do not need to share your phone number with Argonath or any users within the group unlike Whatsapp, as long as you setup as username.
We will continue to share updates as they are available. The !info command will detail more progression notes.
Edit: I forgot to thank StatuZ for helping me with the bot configuration process on Telegram. Thanks StatuZ!

I love innovation like this.
-
Awesome innovation, Teddy!
-
Damn, that's nice.
-
Sick! Good job!
-
Sweet, been using Telegram for 2 years, love it!
-
Okay, now this is really interesting. I'll definitely try the app and see how's it. Great job guys!
-
Damn, time to download it again :lol:
-
I prefer one of Teddy's other bots. That one is specifically hostile towards Monkey :rofl:
-
/me got it to work, but still feels like a caveman next to a parking meter.
This is pretty awesome though, let's see what we can and will do with it ;)
-
You can now leave suggestions for both the Argonath bot on Telegram or for Argonath Now using the command '!suggest'. The bot will then prompt you for your suggestion and it'll be automatically forwarded.
-
Awesome innovation!
BTW: What should I do here?

Great innovation, Good job Teddy :app:
-
It's so fast.
-

Do what it says, I did too :kilt:
-
It's so fast.
That's what I was aiming for, the initial bot as you can ask some who helped test some of the initial features was very laggy (up to 10 seconds to respond at times). I spent a great deal of time really focusing on efficiency and most responses are now within a second.
CB chats, in our demonstrations, are delayed by about 2-3 seconds.

It wont work :rolleyes:

You can only do most commands in a group chat. It will tell you when you use a command if it can be used or not.
Good news, we've finished a first round of testing on the test server using the authentication process (used to link a genuine telegram group chat to an Argonath CB). We've also managed to get the delay of messages from CBs down to around a second (varies on your own Internet as well).
We *may* be set to release this on the 12th, rather than the 16th if trials continue to go well.
You must first add @ArgonathRPGBot to your Telegram group chat. You must communicate with the bot over that group chat in order to complete the verification process.
Once you verify the Telegram chat ALL messages sent in CB will be echo'd to that Telegram channel. As of now, messages sent within the Telegram chat are NOT returned in-game.
Additionally, some have asked about the bot's presence. Yes, the bot MUST remain in the group chat in order to echo the messages.

What if i dont have a group chat?

I cant make a group chat without having a contact on telegram.

This is correct. You need to have people to add to a group to create it. Make some friends!

How to link up my group with the cb in game?

How to link up my group with the cb in game?
If I understood right, it will be available either tomorrow or on 16th, depending when it's ready.
Here's a guide for when it's available http://www.argonathrpg.eu/index.php?topic=113289.msg1782383#new
-
Let's wait then, Thanks.
-
We will release what we have tomorrow and begin building additional services.
One of the suggestions has led us to develop a plan for the next major update to the Telegram service: offline SMS. This will allow an in-game player to use their in-game phone to SMS a player who is offline using the offline player's SMS contact.

Aww yis!

Thats neat af

Can't wait for it ;)

I am beginning to prepare the server and the bot for this release. I expect to have it live within the hour.
No restart will be required for this update.
Do note: the bot's !getstarted and !info information is outdated and will be renewed when the bot is released. You'll want to follow the information from my DevGuide or using the bots built-in guide. You will need to be sure you follow the directions exactly.
Requirements:
* You must be the owner of the CB
* You must have a Telegram group chat
* In the Telegram group chat you MUST have the @ArgonathRPGBot.
* You must also be in that same Telegram group chat.
* You need to be able to follow SIMPLE directions exactly as they are given.
Verification Process:
* The verification code IS case sensitive.
* Only the CB owner can enter the verification code, and ofc request it.
* If you do not see the verification code within 10 seconds, you've done something wrong (likely the wrong ID).
Unlinking Telegram:
/cbtgdeauth (you ofc need to be the CB owner)
-
With a little wave of a wand, this part of the service is now live and functional on the main server.
I'll be here and in-game for the next few hours to help anyone in the setup process.

Seems like it doesn't show everyones message from ingame. For instance, i can't see what truth writes.

Make sure everyone uses /cb while talks in CB cause if you don't use it, it doesn't show up in Telegram. I don't know if Teddy will do something about that, but I hope we can be able to see without typing the /cb in front.

If you mean it doesn't work with /chatmode cb then surely that is a bug.

Will people ingame be able to see what I'm writing from the app?

Yes, I will have a fix shortly.

Not yet.

How do you add people to the chat without adding them as contacts?

They have to use /cb in order for the messages to forward to TG. It doesn't support /chatmode cb yet.

I like this

Just working on a system to link accounts individually, the current trial system isn't very friendly.

You need only one to start a group, then you add the ArgonathBot there.
Yes, it is up.

- Do the verification process
- Give yourself a First and Last name

Step 3:
- Setting up your Telegram, Go at the left side of the screen and use the 3 ||| to go to the option menu
- In this option menu, Go to username and fill in your ingame name (without tags)
(http://i.imgur.com/f95a9Lu.jpg)
Step 4:
- Go into the settings menu and "create a new group"
- Add another member/members to your group with "@Username"
Step 5:
- Authenticating the ArgonathRPG bot, Add @ArgonathRPGBot on Telegram, and type !getstarted.
- You are promoted with the following message:
Hello "Name" ! I assume you have already setup a group for your CB, if you have not, type !group. Once you have done this you will add me to a group chat via Telegram. You can do this by tapping my name and selecting "Add to Group" and then selecting the group you want me to join. Next, you will want to start adding people to this group. Type !getstarted in the Telegram group chat when you are ready.
Step 6:
- Authenticating the Group chat on the group chat and ingame
- You are promoted with the following message:
Excellent! We are now ready to get started linking in-game CB to this chat. You will need at least 5 minutes, amazing copy and paste skills, and maybe a glass of water.
First, lets begin by typing the !link command here in telegram. You will be given a command to type in-game. I recommend you copy and paste it directly. The ID at the end needs to be exact for this process to work.
Once you have run this command in-game, I will send a message here with a verification number in order to ensure you are in this chat. You will need to use the in-game command /cbtgauth [ code ] in order to verify the authenticity with our in-game systems.
Once you have done this you will immediately begin seeing CB radio chats within the game.
Need help?
Contact Teddy via the forums, in-game, or on Skype for help. Do note: NEVER give away your chat ID or authentication code during this process.
Good luck!, you have succesfully installed the groupchat.

On a sidenote:
[DevGuide] - Argonath RPG Telegram (setup Guide) (http://www.argonathrpg.eu/index.php?topic=113377.msg1783798#new) is finished with all steps now.

Good news:
As of today, testing Telegram to in-game messaging for CB links has been successful. We will continue with a bit more testing before moving to the live server.
-
The ability to send messages from Telegram to in-game linked CB will be in Friday's or Saturdays update.
Do note, a newly linked CB may take up to 5 minutes to begin relaying messages from Telegram to in-game, whereas in-game to Telegram takes affect immediately.
You will need to have a username set or your messages will not be relayed in-game.

I thought that it is possible to develop it with Telegram.

It has to be developed both in-game and via a custom bot system developed for Telegram.

No, I am once again having problems with my PC.

The 'Telegram ---> Ingame' seems to be bugged again

The 'Telegram ---> Ingame' seems to be bugged again
If you are subscribed to @ArgonathRPG channel, you should see when it restarts now during the testing of our new system. After a restart it takes about a minute to start relaying back into the game. As of a few days ago the service automatically restarts in order to clear out any issues with the Telegram bots which tend to have undocumented errors, this in most cases will fix problems with the Telegram->In-Game relay. When I come back I can take a closer look at a resolution to this.

No, Telegram is regular messaging software allowing you to communicate with anyone in the world. It isn't limited to just our CB channels.
