O.P. Windows Live Messenger 8 and Messenger Plus!
This is a general thread to post any issues


And for the first time in some time the Plus! menu activates itself in "Compatability mode"

This could be very bad news.

What do you expect it is taking patchou's features too, patchou should wait a bit until he gets a full features list then start trying to make compatible. What did they say to him in raymond?

The beta isn't even out yet, and when it will be Patchou still won't have a reason to make Plus! compatible with WL Messenger 8. The meaning of the beta is to test WL Messenger 8 to make sure it works the way it should. It's done best without any additional programs like Plus! installed.

btw: you're not allowed to have any beta unless you're a beta tester.

Its completely changed. Even in Reshack...
Alot of things will have to have a major update as soon as this comes out as public..
(they could get a head start with the private ones (6))

I expect that once its officially in beta, not final as mentioned above, but in beta, Patchou will more than likely begin programming a beta version of Plus! for WLM8 and get that ball rolling....put it this way, has he ever left us without Plus! for an unreasonable amount of time?

true. wait until they settle with their basics ideas then develpers can start again. Eveything atm is test test test, and the whole program may still change and become incompatible again :)

Patchou is an MVP (Most Valuable Professional). He does get into any beta he would like.

As far as Messenger Plus! not working properly with MSN Messenger this is expected. It was the same thing that happened with MSN Messenger 5.0. Plus! was unable to hook the internal workings of it causing that menu to be displayed. It is nothing new.

Once Windows Live Messenger 8 is released publically then Patchou will release a compatibility update to support it. Until then Patchou has bigger things to worry about.

[Image: attachment.php?pid=560448]

Messenger Plus! source code is backed up on multiple sources but currently Patchou is trying to recover other data from it and wont be worrying about Windows Live Messenger 8 any time soon since it is still in beta stage (non beta testers shouldn't be using it) and not publically released.

We can actually close this thread and not worry about this any more.
