RE: Is this a proper WLM i got in my inbox? by Skitz on 01-10-2006 at 03:05 PM

is it possible to run both msn7.5 and WLM8 at the same time? does the StuffPlug polygamy work? or it just aint possible yet?

cheers

i thought that was just having  both installed at the same time? not actually USING both at the same time?

oh sry my fault, read a bit to fast I guess, but I do think you need to install both first anyway! :) And maybe try to like run 7.5 first with StuffPlug and the polygamy setting on and then start WLM! Might work..

yeh i run 7.5, applied polygamy, and then run WLM, it loads.

so both are loaded. but only ONE can be signed in. if you try sign into the other, it disconnects the other one.

anyone know how to use both same time?

Are you trying to login on the same account?  You cannot login on the same account from more than one place.

ok this is talkin from my other post in a simler thread and yeah i know its not full on the topic but eh it works out all for the best

theirs the Mess Patch (322) and "enable polygamy". (ploy in its self)
theirs A-Patch(i think its writen like that mite be worng and sorry to the ppl if i am)
and StuffPlug works too (but i cant be sure never realy worked for me)
and thiers a few others but i dont think the others work with WML but i most likly be wrong

This is how I managed to run both MSN Messenger 7.5 and Windows Live Messenger Beta 8.0.(It's to easy and at the same time)

1. Download and install the more recent public version of  MSN Messenger(7.5.0311 or 322 after the patch)


2.Download the corrisponding Mess Patch (322) and "enable polygamy".


3.Open Windows Explorer and navigate to "C:/Program Files/". Rename the folder MSN Messenger 7.5 to Messenger "instead of just MSN Messenger" (and remember it dosent matter about the windows messenger so jusst over write it :P)

Remember its extremely important because if you install Windows Live Messenger after, it will just over write MSN Messenger.

4. After renaming the folder, go ahead and install Windows Live Messenger.

5. Navigate to the installed directories,
"C:/Program Files/Messenger" - MSN Messenger 7.5
"C:/Program Files/MSN Messenger" - Windows Live Messenger
And create "ShortCuts" to the desktop for both "msnmsgr.exe" porcesses in these folders.

Step 6:
Run them both and sign in!

WARNING!
You will need 2 (two) different accounts. One for each, msn and wlm (both dont need beta accounts only the one using WLM)

and if msnplus! does not load up with msn7.5 but it does with WML just exit them and load msn7.5 1st and then WML.. if that dont work then reset computer or just crash msnplus and restart it.

or if it doesnt want to open up 2 messengers just re-run the messpatch...


------------------
owell any questions just ask i had no problems yet expte for the 2 i put at the bottom their ejoy and have fun
