==Howto find the Iris2 Configuration?==
During the initial start of Iris2, the Configuration template from '''Iris2/config''' is copied to your UserHome directory. This is the configuration Iris2 is using!


How to find it on Windows?

Just type the following into your Winows Explorer and hit Enter. It's the '''".iris"''' directory.

'''HINT:''' If you want Iris2 to load the configuration from "Iris2/config" dir, you have to delete the "USE_HOME_DIR" file from "Iris2/".

==Howto limit the chat output lines ?==

Open the Windows Explorer and type in: %appdata%/.iris/config/config.lua

Edit the '''config.lua''' with Notepad and put this in, to limit the output to the last two lines:

<pre>gMaxFadeLines = 2</pre>

== connecting to pol shards (allow unencrypted clients) ==

iris doesn't support encrypted connections, so the shard has to allow unencrypted clients for iris to be able to connnect.<br>
add the following to uoclient.cfg(newer pol versions)  or pol.cfg (old pol versions) in the pol shard config.
  Listener
  {
  Port 5003
  Encryption none
  AOSResistances 0
  }

== Debugging ==

put this in your config/config.lua
