Custom emotions clashing with default ones! by Chrissy on 06-06-2010 at 10:57 PM

I have already searched the forums and found nothing.

I've added an emotion (I think) under the :D short cut. It's not showing up in the panel and when I try to edit the default one it wont let me, because it's default.

So whenever I send :D, it comes up as the default one in the textbox but once it sends it changes to a custom one (I cant see it, but the box is there were the emotion should be).

Any ideas to remove it?

Change the shortcut?

I can't..

Reinstalling messenger? [It usually deletes the old emoticons...]

When you try to add a custom emoticon using one of the default shortcuts it doesn't let you and gives an error message.

So how precisely did you manage it?

How do you even know it's a custom one and not Messenger failing to display it in that context (ie inside the message history window)

Well to put it short, I type :D and got a clear box.. but I remember someone sending me a custom emotion with the shortcut :D as well and I could add it fine :S.

Are you sure it's not that code but with a space after?

StuffPlug used to allow this IIRC. Just re-install

Well, I might as well. I'll install an older version that has the one-way web cam feature :P

When installing it finishes then gives me an error saying it couldn't be installed because I canceled it. I didn't cancel it. :S

* Uninstall any Windows Live stuff you currently have installed (as it won't install when you have a newer version installed)

* Download the full installer http://rnd.menthix.net/windows_live/Windows_Live_...sh/wlsetup-all.exe

* Clean out the dust from your harddisk.


RE: Custom emotions clashing with default ones! by Chrissy on 06-07-2010 at 06:15 PM

That's what I did.


RE: Custom emotions clashing with default ones! by Menthix on 06-07-2010 at 06:48 PM

That's why it failed.


RE: Custom emotions clashing with default ones! by Chrissy on 06-07-2010 at 07:01 PM

Why? I only installed it as anyone else does.
