Ohohoh, merry Christmas everybody! be sure to get a network adapter for your PlayStation 2 to be able to beat Santa next time he connects on your online-gaming server! If you don't have a PlayStation 2 or if you don't plan to get extra accessories for it, don't worry, the new version of Messenger Plus! is free! I planned to start selling licenses of use for around $199, get rich and move to Tokyo but I finally decided that I could leave it free at least a little longer .

Enough spam for today. I'm writing this news to inform you that a new version of Messenger Plus!, version 2.54, has been released. As always, you'll find bug fixes and new features. This time, the interesting new stuff is called "Come-back Message". You can now right click on an offline contact and enter a message that will be automatically sent next time your contact signs-in. This feature was so heavily requested that I don't doubt its future success.

As I probably won't post another news before next year, I also wish you now to have a happy new year. I sincerely hope that we'll all stay together for another great year in the Instant Messaging world.

Patchou

CL thanks for the christmas gift

Happy NY Patch I hope itll bring u lots of fun

Added "ImprovePopupMenus" registry setting to prevent entries to be added in Messenger popup menus. That's for those of you who really like pointless customization .

mmm... just now i'm not sure of the last i've said. maybe you only see <the personalized name you've chosen from him>

sorry, i've explained you the other setting
the popups menus it says are the ones that appears when you right click a contact at the contacts list. if you use that setting, you won't see the messenger plus extras menu
maybe there are other menus (of messenger) where plus adds its own entry. with that setting, plus won't add anything to those menus too.

I guess it's a memory problem... i'll let you know if it's still there when restarting. For now, forget it

I looooooooove the tag-use (!N) and (!M) in the custom names.... Dreams do come true
Now it is the first time ever I'll use custom names....
W00T W00T

Patchou, in the next weeks you can expect something which was promised (well, demanded by you actually )...

Oh, and btw, TAKE A NICE LONG BREAK!!!

Happy Chirstmas and Merry Newyear...

It's great, thanks Patchou

Thanks Patchu!

Have a Happy Christmas and a Merry New Year

Yet again Patchou has out done himself....each version seems to be the best it can be and then Patchou ups the ante and a better one is released!
Nice work, thanks for sharing PLUS! with us all, can't imagine using messenger without it.

Happiest of holidays to you and your family & much success in 2004!

First I thought I was going to look thru all of these 6 pages, to see if there were people who actually said more than "Great!" or "Patchou "
But as it turns out, I cant be assed. I just see that on this page, people have something more to say (the regulars here for the most part).


Patchou, this addon is great. Whenever I have to format, this is the first program (second to MSN itself) I reclaim on the computer.
Many fun times I have had with me and my friends with this program and the plugins.

I still remember the first time I discovered the code to see your pic in this program.... Im not gonna lie to you. Me and my friend laughed a bit. (You looked weird on that pic....)

Of course I speak for everyone who used this program when I say you make our MSN experience better, easier and more fun. We all respect you and greatly appreciate what you do.
I cant speak for everyone on this, but I at least think it is bloody annoying to see you getting flamed for trying to help people learn how to program the freatures in Messenger Plus!. Perhaps you should somehow test persons requesting the source... To see if they are just looking for pre-programmed greatness or whatnot.



Thats my 2 cents anyways
peace out

Yay! This version is really great!

I really love this program, thanks Patchou!

Yeah. So do I/ I dont understand the (!M) thing though. Help please??

KIOFCOKI

(!M) shows ur contact's mail in the IM window.. now u can use this tag in custom names. just type it as a custom name and see what happens

Hi,

I came to take a look what the new features were for the new plus, I must say, I'm pleasantly surprised . I also noticed that the annoying weird advertising-bar that always showed in my i-explorer has gone. Just wonderful!

Thankyou

Happy Newyear (s eve) all

(en een extra woordje voor de Nederlandstaligen onder ons: feest ze!)
