Messenger Plus! Version 5.10 Released



RE: Messenger Plus! 5.10 released by Oxy on 09-07-2011 at 10:38 PM

Havent properly visited the website for a while. Thought the design was coming along good, and was particularly please to hear about this new version!

but then i saw, the forums hadnt changed.

*sigh*

anyway, i will download the release promptly


RE: Messenger Plus! 5.10 released by CookieRevised on 09-07-2011 at 10:51 PM

congratz on the new release... but:

1) from the link http://www.msgplus.net/News/Messenger_Plus!_Version_5_10_Released!:

quote:
All builds of Messenger Plus! 5 support both Messenger 2011 and 2009 and can be downloaded at downloads (There is always only one build of Plus! 5 made available at this section).

the "downloads" link is wrong
(the prefix "http://" is forgotten, making the URL relative to the current page... aka 404)



2) And the wrong 'webinstaller' versions of all the translations are included (old ones) for the setup!! And the previous translation for Dutch instead of latest version for Plus!.



EDIT: both fixed
RE: Messenger Plus! 5.10 released by warmth on 09-07-2011 at 11:10 PM

Very nice... :D congrats guys!

Does this fix that bug with double smiles? (Is there an offline installer available?)

Unfortunatly no, not at this time. Previous public build (716) didn't had an offline installer either btw.

Congrats on the release! A lot of hard work has gone into this release and we acknowledge that.

It is a shame however that the site, albeit improved, still isn't matching the quality of the software. I mean what is with the black bar behind the menu? Also why is there a green gradient above it? As you can tell from this message we all CLEARLY love gradients...

Lastly what is with the font in the news section not matching the font on the rest of the site? Inconsistencies like this are going to make people question the quality of product that is released.

By posting this I am simply trying to make a point.

Some of these features do look quite interesting, will be fun to try them out.  And others...  well...

Just what I always wanted!  8-)

Perhaps me just being really picky, but during the install, the taskbar button progress bar follows the download progress rather than install...  perhaps more logical to use installation progress?

Also, what is this?

Edit: grr, use of the word "plugins" instead of "scripts"...  :mipdodgy:  Script debugging, but plugin preferences?  *facepalm*

Also, since when does changing preferences require a UAC prompt?

A simple program would've been able to do that automatically :p

I posted this on the beta board a while ago. This is my thought on the new release:

Nooooooo...  that guy's everywhere though (preferences panel, animated button logo etc.), I wouldn't be surprised if he soon started giving pointless advice.  *-)

Plus 5.10 sure has interesting features but I couldn't use it because it did kept making my msn to use 50% of CPU even if it was to open a menu.

I returned to messenger plus 5.2 and all is back in order as in msn using 0% and all responsive.

Small note: Plus! 5.03.716 was the previous public version, not 5.02 ;)

Yeah but I missed that one due to first, not having enabled the automatic updates, and second due to have been busy with family issues :P

So that's why I had version 5.02 installed.

thank you for the info..


RE: Messenger Plus! 5.10 released by aNILEator on 10-31-2011 at 07:22 PM

not even the hardcore regulars use messenger much anymore, when i asked the 4 people left online in my list most replied they just haven't gotten around to unticking turn on at startup yet. Messenger is pretty much retired in favour of browser or mobile app based services it would seem despite trying to integrate with them it hasn't saved itself and the buyout of plus brought with it poor management and undesired features and community split, things may see a slight surge again when windows 8 comes out, but don't imagine many people will continue to use Messenger Plus, or rather Messenger Plus More Ad's!

Messenger Plus! for Windows Phone could be a great idea!

With Nokia's partnership that's gonna change drastically in a very few time... have you seen the massive advertisement campaign? Nokia Lumia is everywhere less than a week after Nokia World 2011 (Nokia Windows Phone launch event) :-#
RE: Messenger Plus! 5.10 released by chris752 on 12-19-2011 at 06:09 PM

It lets me download it but when I go to run it it wont install, the install starts before downloading starts and tells me to try again later. Its been 2 weeks and i am tired of waiting. When you get it fixed or repackaged so it gives us the complete install from the start then email us all and I will try again.
