What version is that? v1.20a had already 7 tabs in its preferences, so it must be before that... v1.00, v1.02, v1.10, v1.20?

RE: first version of plus! by Dempsey on 07-13-2004 at 11:21 AM

how did you find the old screenshots?  http://web.archive.org ?

RE: first version of plus! by Patchou on 07-13-2004 at 04:23 PM

Word of advice: do not install anythign below version 1.20, or you'll probably regret it :).


RE: first version of plus! by Vantage on 07-13-2004 at 04:33 PM

Patchou Why?


RE: first version of plus! by Guido on 07-13-2004 at 04:48 PM

Hmm whatever that is, the key must be here:

RE: first version of plus! by musicalmidget on 07-13-2004 at 06:02 PM

Wow, it's good to see all those screenshots again.  Hardly seems like yesturday.  I can't remember whether I started on 1.20 or 1.40...but if I look hard enough I'll probably be able to find the installers still sitting on my computer somewhere... :p


RE: first version of plus! by saralk on 07-13-2004 at 06:07 PM

RE: first version of plus! by Wabz on 07-13-2004 at 06:37 PM

* Wabz remembers version 1


Oh my god I can still remember the excitment of MsgPlus 2 coming out.  I'm still excited now a year and a half later!

Version 1 is about the standard of anyone else now.  Patchous years ahead at this game :P

why are you saying that? is it because it only works on 3.6.xxx?
RE: first version of plus! by CookieRevised on 07-13-2004 at 11:54 PM

No, because there are very nasty bugs I assume...


RE: first version of plus! by Johnny_Mac on 07-13-2004 at 11:56 PM

Probably both reasons tbh, I cant see 1.2 working on msn 6. :P

Also dont apply any Patchou Patches you might have picked up to anything less then version 3 of messenger, they cause some major problems. :s

Especially after all those menu hook problems and stuff with MSN 5 and 6... :S

Actually I only know Messenger Plus! from version 2.00.32 or so... shame on me :P

I would love to completely downgrade everything for a day though, like to the old MSN Messenger versions with those pixely smilies (or even before those existed!), and an old Messenger Plus! version... :P Lol I love those screenshots, thanks Matty. :banana:
RE: first version of plus! by Patchou on 07-14-2004 at 03:19 PM

You can install version 1.4 anytime, without having to worry. It still works well with Windows Messenger 4.x (and probably MSN Messenger 5.x too if you're not using Windows XP). Old versions of Messenger Plus! were using a whole different technique (prior around 1.20). At that  time, Messenger Plus! was replacing the Messenger files by his so that Plus! would be launched instaed of Messenger. This caused a lot of problem and I don't want these problems to happen to you :).


RE: first version of plus! by Dempsey on 07-14-2004 at 03:21 PM

what ever happened about the 1.42b source code being released?


RE: first version of plus! by Patchou on 07-14-2004 at 06:50 PM

Well, I never abandoned the project but there was so much controversy on msn fanatic when I talked about it that it somehow killed my interest. As most people were complaining that the source of the old Plus! was not what they wanted, I didn't bother to start to clean the code for a public release.


RE: first version of plus! by Dane on 07-14-2004 at 07:09 PM

:p.  I downloaded the "lost and critical" version of 1.20, the one that Patchou had a horrible bug in :P.  It was on KaZaA, with a whole crapload of viruses (Most commonly W32.Jeefo).  Anywayz, you should make a ZIP file of the Plus! 1 Public Versions and the Plus! 2 Public Versions Available :P (I have alot of the 2 public versions!).  I'd be interested to run them on my "Test System"

Err... he said don't use below 1.20, not 1.20 or below.
RE: first version of plus! by Chrono on 07-14-2004 at 09:37 PM

RE: first version of plus! by sasquatch on 07-15-2004 at 06:09 AM

omg.. this reli brings me bak... i still remeber wishing i had access to those transparency feature bak in my old comp... *sighz*


RE: first version of plus! by saralk on 07-17-2004 at 10:21 AM

i remember that, i was really annoyed that i couldnt get the transparency, then i got windows 2000, and the first thing i did was get messenger and messenger plus!
