New MSN Messenger Beta the DAY! that Plus! 3.50 comes out?! by user27089 on 03-17-2005 at 08:07 AM

Isn't it a bit dodgy though ... its just came out the exact same day as messenger plus! 3.50, surely, this also means some compatibility errors and that plus! will have to be updated to be fully compatibly with msn 7 beta :-/ .

Messenger Client Version: 7.0.0429

RE: New MSN Messenger Beta the DAY! that Plus! 3.50 comes out?! by Caboose on 03-17-2005 at 08:08 AM

I haven't heard of this new beta yet

[EDIT]: Oh, is this the 7.0.0429 one?

Thats pretty annoying really, actually, it should be compatible, its compatible with other versions of msn betas... lol 604 and so on...

But, this beta, is it just improved or something, i was hoping that it would have the search button and stuff

RE: New MSN Messenger Beta the DAY! that Plus! 3.50 comes out?! by Thatdot7.1 on 03-17-2005 at 08:16 AM

The "personal message" feature isn't too bad...

But other people using the previous beta will only see boxes

RE: New MSN Messenger Beta the DAY! that Plus! 3.50 comes out?! by Thatdot7.1 on 03-17-2005 at 08:21 AM

Some of the features in MsgPlus! 3.40.112 (I think) don't work in the current beta... but I think 3.50 does

Lame attempt at what exactly? They are just making builds of a product which is under development, and someone leaks one once in a while. Don't be paranoid, if they wanted to stop Plus from working they've done that long ago.

RE: New MSN Messenger Beta the DAY! that Plus! 3.50 comes out?! by Thatdot7.1 on 03-17-2005 at 08:40 AM

Nah... I probably want to attract more people to use MSN Msgr, then ripped off Patchou's code

RE: New MSN Messenger Beta the DAY! that Plus! 3.50 comes out?! by Screeny on 03-17-2005 at 08:45 AM

This new beta is currently only avalaible in English.... All other Versions is still Build 405 :dodgy:

RE: New MSN Messenger Beta the DAY! that Plus! 3.50 comes out?! by Guido on 03-17-2005 at 08:46 AM

It's a Public Beta, so you can grab it from http://messenger.msn.com/Beta/

RE: New MSN Messenger Beta the DAY! that Plus! 3.50 comes out?! by Thatdot7.1 on 03-17-2005 at 08:52 AM

There is also a gay MSN Messenger 8 Alpfa but it:

Look really bad
Doesn't have many features

RE: New MSN Messenger Beta the DAY! that Plus! 3.50 comes out?! by user44571 on 03-17-2005 at 08:55 AM

I have that... but that didn't come today at all, it's weeks old.

MSN's homepage gives me an older beta, I can't install it because of that... are you sure it's there? Or is this actually an older build?

Which beta du you have currently installed?

No, not sure.... I mean, its an official beta, so it should be on the official Site.
But I've got no clue. Sorry.

Please restate your question

[EDIT] Sorry... it's a illegal copy

I have .0632, but didn't download it from MSN.com -- from various mirror sites on the net, and it was available long ago.

After reading this thread I downloaded the beta from messenger.msn.com, and the installation aborted saying it couldn't install an older version over the current one.

Jep, it's just because your Build is newer (higher) than the 405/409 Build.
Just deinstall your current Version, and then reinstall. (But it's a little bit dumb to do this, why downgrade to a MSN Messenger Version with less features?)

And the 632 Build isn't on the off. MSN Site, of course.

Ok... Ever tried system restore, i highly doubt it but it could work

:/ I already posted about this here.

RE: New MSN Messenger Beta the DAY! that Plus! 3.50 comes out?! by CookieRevised on 03-17-2005 at 12:26 PM

People, get your build numbers right if you are gonna talk about this stuff!

There is no 405, 409, or whatever.... It is 425, 429, 604, 632... The confusing with all these leakes versions is already big enough...

Furthermore, everybody is talking about .429, but I yet have to see the first real file. Even on http://messenger.msn.com/beta there is no 429 (like mess.be reports) It still is 425...

Also, yes it might be crazy for MS to release a public build lower then an exitsing leaked beta. But remember that you aren't even suppose to use, heck know, builds >604 (unless you're a beta tester)... So don't go with all this bashing at MS, this is a normal way of development and it is the leakers you should be bashing...
