As mentioned in my previous post, its works great. However, my countdown event has already passed, now my PSM says "-1days....."

Could you change it so that if an event has pass it just says 0 for the days, hours, minutes and seconds fields?

Open it in something like Winzip or WinRar and extract the files into the  Messenger Plus! Live Scripts folder

and then?

Sorry never used scripts this way before.

I asked a few people on my msn but they dont seem to care.

Restart WLM and enable (checkbox) the script in Plus!Live preferences (plus > preferences > general > scripts).

Edit: you're welcome

Ok this works great, now that i finally got it to work.. my fault.

Now how do we set more than one date for count down and allow our PSM to rotate between 2 or 3 count down dates?

Like Birthdays, Special Events and Other?

Be a good feature if it could.

Also if you have more than 1 account signedinto msn at the same time,the count down appears in the PSM for both logged in users, anyone to limit this to just the 1 account that set the date?

Yeah, it works so well that it motivated me to add a "filter" option for the event viewer . I think the updates should be at the minimum once every two ir three minutes, else, you're goign to flood the Messenger network as well as flood the chat logs of people (remember that name/psm changes are logged during the chat and no, I won't add a time out ).

yeah i noticed that it floods the chat logs, ill change the default time to 2 minutes.

Thanks, just tested it and it works great. Although, could you add it so that format can include hour, minute & seconds for countdowns that don't include midnight

---

i will take a look at it.

What do you mean by "default" time? Do you mean the user can set it to 1 second (for example) anyways or is it a "minimum allowed" time?

Allowing the user to update his nick/PSM too much will flood the servers (as Patchou already said). So if this "default" time can still be changed to anything less, then please don't release this script in public...

Also:
HolidayCounter Plugin. This will be made compatible for Plus!Live.

Ok fair enough. pitty though. Would be impressive.

Great work other on it though so far.

Bump...is either PSM Countdown or Holiday Counter Script (after requested time interval adjustments ofcourse) gonna be put on the script db/official release?

Thought i'd bump as there are requests for this already:
