Plus plug ins compatability? Plus 2.74 and Plus 3 by jamie198402 on 05-23-2004 at 08:49 AM

Are all Plug ins from 2.74 compatable with the new version Plus 3 :P In particular WMPlus2> i love this plug in :P. i have notice that the screenhot sender 2 plug in is in version 3 if u had it in version 2,74 :). how and why. also why are not the others plug ins :( are the ohers compatable any suggestions that WMPlus2 and others may work. Are there any planned changes to any of the 2.74 version plug ins so that they work with version 3.

Usually it has to do with the ReceiveNotify that the Visual Basic plugin uses...if Plus! 3 accepts a different ReceiveNotify to the one that was used in the plugin it's not accepted...

yep, the plugins for 2.54 can be used in plus 3, however I'd suggest developers take a look at the new template to improve their plugins.

what he changed was related to a bug that made plus and messenger chrash if a dodgy plugin displayed a long text in the toast. I've reported it and patchou added something in the template to avoid that (Y)

I had at least 20 plug ins and now only ten work!!! One of the ones that disappeared is the handwriting one!

EDIT, sry didnt know I had to copy the plugins folder from C:/Programas/Messenger Plus! 2/Plugins
to C:/Programas/Messenger Plus! 3/Plugins...


RE: Plus plug ins compatability? Plus 2.74 and Plus 3 by CookieRevised on 05-23-2004 at 01:48 PM

Patchou also added many security checks for plugins IIRC. This makes that dodgy or bad made plugins aren't compatible anymore...


RE: Plus plug ins compatability? Plus 2.74 and Plus 3 by Pete_M on 05-23-2004 at 06:21 PM

Could anyone please tell me if the popular "window closed/opened" notifiers (Wouters, Mystic etc) are MSGPLUS 3 compatible or not? Thanks.


RE: Plus plug ins compatability? Plus 2.74 and Plus 3 by CookieRevised on 05-23-2004 at 10:09 PM

Wouters OpenConvo plugin works also...


RE: Plus plug ins compatability? Plus 2.74 and Plus 3 by jamie198402 on 05-24-2004 at 04:42 PM

Hi. I was the creator of this thread :). I was one of the first to get MsgPlus 3.

When i got MsgPlus 3 only 1 plug in worked :( i was using MSN Messenger 6.2 with MsgPlus 3 :P most of the day but signed out mid afternoon.
On my return to MSN in the evening I had almost all my plug ins were listed :S:o and i have tried a couple and they worked :) as there is alot of commands so i did not try everything :(. With my latest log on i have all my plug ins i used in Plus 2.74 back again :).

Are any plugins in the process of being updated or in the creation stage (i like plug ins:) and new functions :P) for a new version if so how do a person remove the old plug in and update with an another version.

What i suggest that this gradual increase is the validation process of plug ins for MsgPlus3 did anyone else experience the same or its continuing.

Jamie
