New plugins: please populate with ideas by OWNd742 on 02-11-2005 at 12:05 AM

Can someone please sticky a post which has all the ideas for plugins so people like me can just briefly look for projects to work on?

Been thinking about making a winamp plugin for msn, tell me if this can be done; like you have the next stop ff rw and shit in ur msn dialogue box, and a button to show what song ur listening to and the time left or time progress bar. could be a good little invention and is WAY too complicated for me to do.

idea 2 how about an msn delete checker that actually works, no offence but norooms program is no more than a program that fails to me, doesnt allow me to have my msn open and doesnt delete the contacts i select.
So in conclusion a plugin that is able to be opened through msn and takes the [Tools -> Options -> Privacy list] and checks the allow list and then checks the who has added you list and shows the ppl who dont have u on there list and u have on your list. easy i think but i failed to do so.

idea 3 how about a plugin that is ABLE to go to a website and check the validity of a contacts offline to see who has blocked you, like it mass messages the website and checks ALL your list to see who has blocked you. ofcourse only checking offline contacts! can be hard also too hard for me to accomplish.

Agreed. I think stickying a thread with all the projects would be a good idea.

  1. Done long time ago. Search the forum or start here: http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=23...d=227028#pid227028

  2. NoRooms Listmanager works perfectly. It does delete/add/manipulate/whatever the various lists perfectly. The reason why your msn messenger can't be logged in is because in order to manipulate your lists you need to be signed in, and since NoRoom Listmanager is the thing that manipulates your lists, it needs to be signed in instead of your msn messenger.

    Also, you contacts can only be fully deleted if they also have deleted you on their list. Otherwise they will stay in your allow list.

    Nothing can change all that because this is the way msn messenger and the msn messenger protocol works.

    In order to write your own listmanager you need to know the msn messenger protocol inside-out and this is far from easy if you're not experienced in programming.

    msn messenger protocol related sites:

    http://www.msnfanatic.com/index.php?module=announ...egories&category=2
    http://ceebuh.info/docs/

  3. Impossible. Again because of the way msn messenger protocol works. Read: http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=30637

the winamp plugins are not what i ment, i know there are NAME to winamp song names. but i wanted to have a program that can change winamp songs and shit FROM WITHIN THE MSN. like making it a toolbar in the msn window.

if you are able to use the google plugin like i have had before, then your able to make the block checker. think about it unless msn fucked the whole google thing over i have full confidence in this program

The link to that list is only an example, there are more related plugins, including ones which control winamp (if I'm not mistaken they are listed in that list, read the helpfiles of those plugins; showing the current playing song is often only one of the many features of those plugins)

No, blockchecking is NOT possible, no matter what you use. This is a protocol limit.

About the idea of a sticky thread is ok.. But then people should also be smart enough to search the forum if such things already exist or if they are impossible at first... Else this thread would just populate into a big massive "thatīs impossible" & "already done" replies, and this could get very messy... About the winamp thing would be very easy for me to dio, but I am currently busy with some other project...

That would be an old site that prob used to work back when Msn Messenger 5 or 6 was the newest version,  But as of now, BlockCheckers do _NOT_ work.
