Extra settings for advanced users by Patchou on 02-20-2003 at 02:54 AM

Hey everyone!

you want to customize your Messenger Plus! a little more than everyone else? lucky you! (I loved this Coke ad... sorry) I just finished a little documentation about the extra registry settings you can play with... see them at http://www.msgplus.net/regset.htm (Update: Problems Fixed with Website) . Oh, yeah, you're not dreaming, my web site is BACK ONLINE! wouhou!

* Patchou dances alone in his appartment

god I hate Linux.... why? lol, for the same reason a lot of people hate Windows: I don't know how to use it :p. Anyway, have fun with these settings, I really hope Tweak Plus! will be ready soon so that everyone can benefit of these 19 extra options.

Oh... one last thing... about the site design, it's all about content ok? I know it's just a FrontPage teme, it looks ugly but don't say it, Fraisie is the one who chose the theme so ;)..... you'll just have to wait for gfd to finish the real new web site. In the meantime, I'll put a lot of information on the web site so be sure you go read it.

Patchou.

Just talked to Patchou:

Jae says:
dude.. your site is very slow / down again 
Patchou says:
hahaha... I know..... it receives 120 requests per minute and it's far from finish... it's every people with older version of MP2 who need to update their software ... it will probably be like that for some days

RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Wabz on 02-20-2003 at 02:38 PM

I was on the site this morning coz it had a rather gay frontpage design on it and i thought i was gonna be sick


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Patchou on 02-20-2003 at 03:23 PM

Yep, the web sitewill be very very slow for a while... but I checked my server log this morning and I'm happy to see that auto-update works.... it will just take some time so that every people who have MP2.0016 or below can update their software so that the site is not flooded of requests every day. Concerning the advanced reg settings, when I'll be back home this evening, I'll put the page on another server so that you can access it right away.

RE: Extra settings for advanced users by [white]shark on 02-21-2003 at 08:53 AM

[edit] Just looked at them, some nice options tho :tongue:[/edit]

Er, fyi, mind the 'refuck' smiley behind my sentence, which would mark it as a joke, which would make it.. a joke.

RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Sholin on 02-21-2003 at 05:16 PM

I just restarted on patchou's server, it seemed to be leaking a bit (i'm going to check on that). Just be sure you guys dont hit refresh every 2 seconds. Apache doesn't like 10,000 concurrent connections ;)


Also, if your running an older version that still updates, PLEASE UPGRADE. There has been over 19,000 requests for the update file, it will help lower the load on the server if everyone upgrades

Another update: Dont worry about posting outages here, I have a services watcher email me the moment the server is down (Patchou, if you'd like the same, ill add your email address also). Thanks for everyones patients.


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Wabz on 02-21-2003 at 05:23 PM

Cool I have visions of the website being super funky with patchou style cleverness


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Menthix on 02-22-2003 at 08:30 AM

php+flash+html... sort of a bit of all... and thanks patchou for your comments :$
RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Patchou on 02-22-2003 at 07:40 PM

Yep, the web site is finally up and running nicely :). I'm sure it will continue like that... yesterday the server received 2,100,000 hits and it didn't die so... :).

As Sholin said: upgrade!!! if you have a version inferior to 2.01.17 to definitively have to update. If you sent Messenger Plus! to your contacts some weeks ago, you could send them the new version to be sure they upgrade asap.

Appart from that, I'd like you to tell me if you finally used some of the information of http://www.msgplus.net/regset.htm ... I really wonder if it's useful for some people.

Patchou


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Pure_BY on 02-22-2003 at 07:49 PM

that is VERY usefull, Patchou!! Very nice page!! but i did not change anything so far cuz' all deafult settings are (Y) for me [Image: icon_Smile_big.gif]


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Whacko on 02-23-2003 at 05:51 PM

RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Pure_BY on 02-23-2003 at 06:25 PM

i thought [white]shark was away... :undecided:


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by big_matty5 on 02-24-2003 at 05:16 AM

That would explain why its taking a fair while....


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by [white]shark on 02-24-2003 at 12:21 PM

I was away indeed, had to go away this weekend, then a format went bizar so I had to work on my computer, had to go and fetch myself a new copy of Windows XP. Everything is sorted out, and I apologize to anyone who has been waiting this weekend for a copy of Tweak Plus!. I'm may be a slow coder, but I don't break my promise to anyone (I wouldn't gain anything no would I).

Sorry again, but watch your mailboxes people :tongue:.

RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Chrono on 02-25-2003 at 06:22 AM

Dont worry :wink:


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by LilAngel on 02-25-2003 at 07:09 PM

Hey Patchou, the site looks good! I like it.


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Patchou on 02-25-2003 at 07:53 PM

Thank you! coming from a girl it's 10 times more appreciated than coming from a guy (and 100 times more appreciated than coming from Chrono :p)


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Pure_BY on 02-25-2003 at 08:20 PM

well, as i told, i like the new webdesign of Plus! very much, it suits the software very good :P

maybe better not change it no new design? LOL


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Wabz on 02-25-2003 at 11:59 PM

Chrono must have issues because everyone likes the site but him :P :refuck:

Only kiddin ;)


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Dane on 03-07-2003 at 02:53 AM

Heh...PLUS ROCKS! Some of these settings are being employed by MsgPlus Zone!


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Mnjul on 03-09-2003 at 04:20 AM

I accidentally found http://www.msgplus.net/regest.htm has a setting "since 2.02.24"...is that a typo or Patchou when're you gonna release that?!


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by WDZ on 03-09-2003 at 04:24 AM

Patchou probably added that setting after 2.02.23 was released, and it'll be in the next release, 2.02.24. I think there were some problems with remote assistance that had to be fixed...


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Patchou on 03-09-2003 at 06:35 AM

yeah, and in fact, it may disappear as a fix has mabe been found for Remote Assistance.


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by WDZ on 03-26-2003 at 01:03 AM

I made a PHP script that automatically generates *.reg files to apply these advanced settings. You don't have to mess with regedit or download any programs... (Y)

RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Swt_Azn_GurL on 03-26-2003 at 06:32 AM

nice =)


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by fluffy_lobster on 03-26-2003 at 05:42 PM

woah, great work WDZ!  shame i can't think of any reason to use those extra options... the defaults are fine for me


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Patchou on 03-27-2003 at 08:11 AM

wow, that's really nice! don't tell me after this that there is too many people going on this forum because you'Re doing everything you can to attract them :)


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Wabz on 03-27-2003 at 03:18 PM

lol I think it's getting to a point where we're gonna have to distribute the scripts around the web and not just in one place


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Pure_BY on 03-27-2003 at 03:41 PM

great job, WDZ! (Y)

so you made a kinda Online Tweak Plus!, right? :P

yeah :P

tweak plus is more automatic, as needs no execution of .reg files, but basically its the same. Tweak Plus probably will have more features.
RE: Extra settings for advanced users by WDZ on 03-28-2003 at 12:14 AM

I'm sure Tweak Plus will have more abilities... this is just a simple script that makes simple *.reg files... :P


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Wabz on 03-28-2003 at 03:22 PM

I hope so whats happening with Tweak PLus anyways


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by soccer_baby_player on 03-29-2003 at 10:24 PM

what is Tweak Plus???


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by Guido on 03-29-2003 at 11:54 PM

Its a program to change the hidden registry settings that msgplus has (not released yet)


RE: Extra settings for advanced users by mark17563 on 04-02-2003 at 07:44 AM

ok .. tweak plus sounds like it will be really good and so so easy to use ., so ppl's when do we think it will be released .... also i have had MP when it first started on the screen its an unreal programme congrats again Patchou !!! woohoo..
