Hey yea im newbie to these forums.
i signed up because i would like to ask about a plug-in that sumone may be able to make ok the idea is...

when u play a game sumtimes you forget to set ur status to busy or away on msn, unless u hav to that auto away thing/busy

right what i would like to know is if u can make a plug-in so that when u double click ur .exe to run ur game well the plug-in picks up which game ur playin and take the name of the game and puts it in ur status and automatically makes u 'away' or 'busy'

any able to do so???

thanks

yea it doesbut i wanted it to like show the name of the game im playing

without having to type it in, so it puts the name up automatically like when u listen to music but a game....?

this is probbaly possible but would be probbaly hard...but I dunno Im no programmer...see what the others think

Ummm.... I'm thinking you could make a Quick Text command...

Command name:
/gamename

Command text:
/run C:/path/to/game.exe
#5#/nbusy Game Name

More info on commands.

Edit: learn more of MsgPlus! by reading the tutorials.

Quick Texts, other help topics...

where do i put that text but?

You set the text where Regexp wrote 'game name'.

yeah but wont that only for for `1 game..... i will hav to do it all over again for another game cant i set it to pick up the name of the game automatically cause if i enter say

'max payne' in its gunna say 'max payne' if i go to play warcraft3 ...

There is already a plug-in for MSN messenger that when you run a game, it automaticly changes ur personal message to the game you are playing. For example if i want to play counter strike, when i run the game, my PM is changed to Counter Strike.. However this plug-in needs xfire to be running. IF you don't know what is xfire, it is a gaming messenger program...
