Well, I'm waiting for my grahic designer to finish his work on this... hehehe... told you GFD ;).

The feature itself is now completed, you'll soon have the screenshots and itwill go in private beta in about a week I guess.

Yes, it means it's for betatesters only. Full release somewhere between half febr./half march, depending on how busy Patchou is etc. etc.

The testers will be getting with the private beta, and yes that means they are the only one that can test it. The public version will be released around 15th March.

Edit: Sunshine was faster than me :(

RE: [split] Screenshots of exciting new Plus! feature? by J.J on 01-30-2005 at 10:34 AM

hmm i wonder what it is...


RE: [split] Screenshots of exciting new Plus! feature? by aNILEator on 01-30-2005 at 10:40 AM

i still think its some online storage thing so you can just link to pictures and play sounds etc


RE: [split] Screenshots of exciting new Plus! feature? by Edna Mode on 01-30-2005 at 10:42 AM

its kinda hard to think what else you can actually make


RE: [split] Screenshots of exciting new Plus! feature? by user27089 on 01-30-2005 at 10:46 AM

Patchou is very imaginitive, I'm sure that it will be good :).

That would be nice, but that would need a decent server for all the users who will want it. It could be anything, so just hold tight, we'll find out soon enough...

RE: [split] Screenshots of exciting new Plus! feature? by Edna Mode on 01-30-2005 at 12:04 PM

would you say the new feature is good


RE: [split] Screenshots of exciting new Plus! feature? by TheBlasphemer on 01-30-2005 at 12:07 PM

I would say it's useless :P
but that's just my humble opinion ;)
but you already knew that: Patchou said it wouldn't be something for advanced users :P

That's too bad. :(

I still can't wait to see all the other new stuff though. :)

*Jaguar hopes some of his ideas made it into the new version. :P
RE: [split] Screenshots of exciting new Plus! feature? by riahc4 on 01-31-2005 at 06:32 PM

I thought the new version was gonna be released when MSN Messenger 7 final comes out (This Feb)


RE: [split] Screenshots of exciting new Plus! feature? by aNILEator on 01-31-2005 at 08:57 PM

yeah but patchou is getting a new game and will be zombiefied for 2 weeks while he completes the old one and the new one :P

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to apologise in advance for what's going to happen in February. You see, I've been waiting for Xenosaga 2 (a game on PS2) for the past 15 months and it's finally going to be released on February 15th. So, here is the deal: to play to this game at its full potential, I first have to play Xenosaga 1 from beginning to end, which should take about a week. Then, I anticipate that it will take at least another 10 days to complete episode 2, which means that between February 7th and March 1st, I probably won't give any sign that I'm alive as I'll be stuck in front of my TV :gfdrin:.

I'm still working a lot on Plus! 3.50 but I unfortunately have to say that Idoubt very much that the version will be completed by February 7th, which means that you'll probably have to wait until around March 15th before you can get your hands on this new release. I'll continue to do my best to try to release before that but I can't promise anything (GFD, if you read this, please respond to my emails!! :)).

I'm now going back to my code... you should still expect to see screenshots of the new stuff before I unplug my computer and my phone line.

See ya,
Patch

RE: [split] Screenshots of exciting new Plus! feature? by aNILEator on 02-01-2005 at 11:16 PM

yeah so as i say, he will be zombified

I just got a mental image of fraisie in a nurse suit feeding a baggy eyed driblbing patchou blended up food with a spoon while he is still playing his game :P

Depending on how much changes from the 3.40 beta to 3.50 and how many bugs are found i guess private beta testing will take somewhere in between 1 to 3 weeks. It's a pure guess though, but a new Plus! version in februari is possible when i read Patchou's post here.

On the other hand...

Hmmm... only 7 days left before Patchou turns into a gaming zombie. Maybe we do have to wait until March then.

Or Patchou can just turn 3.40 BETA into final (with all the latest fixes) once MSN7 comes out and wait with 3.50 until after the zombie period :). I personally rather wait a month more and have a nice stable release then have a buggy release just because the release date is synchronized with MSN7.

RE: [split] Screenshots of exciting new Plus! feature? by Fredzz on 02-03-2005 at 02:29 AM

we;re in february already :D :D now lets wait :|

made my 200th post :o):o)


RE: [split] Screenshots of exciting new Plus! feature? by aNILEator on 02-04-2005 at 05:53 PM

just a description of the new feature will do i'm not bothered about a screenshot if its not been created yet :P

but this isn't like the normal patchou at all.

Your usually a good scheduled boy Cyril...


RE: [split] Screenshots of exciting new Plus! feature? by Patchou on 02-04-2005 at 08:13 PM

Ok everyone, that's settled: a description and screenshots of what's to come in Messenger Plus! 3.50 will be released monday, in exclusivity on mess.be and neowin.net :).
