Extending max. name&PSM by fayte7523 on 07-23-2007 at 07:13 AM
Hi, is there a script available for extending the maximum amount of characters that's allowed in name and psm? Thx

Don't quote me on it but don't the servers check the number of characters used, thus if you did extend your nickname and PSM it wouldn't work at all?

I know that it was possible to boost the Personal Message length on previous versions of Messenger by doing a resource (or hex) edit (All the patches stole this function off me! Those asses 
) but I'm not sure if it's still possible. There was a max length checked by the server itself which was significantly larger than that allowed by the client.
As for nicknames I believe in the past you could type /nick <name> and it would allow you to have larger nicknames, I might be imagining this (as I'm not a person who uses excessively long nicknames) and I'm not sure if this is still possible or not.
EDIT: I just checked some patches' features and they dont seem to have the boost PSM feature any more so I assume it may no longer be possible (or at least as simple as it used to be without manipulating protocol)...
