the two versions of plus are completely different. you can't import settings from plus! 3 into plus! 4

well,  may i ask when can the preference settings made in version 3 and 4 be used in your latest versions (Messenger Plus! Live 4.23.276)?

the settings i made are so important for me that i can not use your new version without it. (it's impossible for asking eveyperson for their real names in my list and making a new setting for the new version)

Unfortunately, the custom names feature of Msgplus! 3 has been left out. The reason is that Windows Live Messenger comes with a feature to rename your contacts. I don't think there's any way to transfer your settings.

When you install Messenger Plus! Live over Messenger Plus! 3, all the old settings which are relevant to Messenger Plus! Live will automatically be ported....

Custom nicknames aren't relevant as Messenger Plus! Live doesn't have that feature anymore, as lizard.boy explained.

You can't import a preferences file from Messenger Plus! 3 into Messenger Plus! Live, nor vice versa...
