Auto file receipt failed when more than 3 files are transferred at the same time. by zhouzhaohan on 09-19-2006 at 08:25 AM

1. Set the peer to recieve file automatically
2. Drag four files to the chat window with the peer to start file transfer.
3. The peer will start to receive the first three files automatically due to MSN's constraint.
4. Even after all the first three files are tranferred successfully, the fourth file won't be received automatically.
5. Transfer one more file to the peer, and that file will be received automatically while the fourth one of the last transfer is still pending there.

Sorry, I forgot the version information:
1. MSN version: build 8.0.0812.00
2. Messenger plus version: 4.01.0.240
3. OS version:  2600.xpsp_sp2_gdr:050301-1519:Service Pack 2

I wouldn't consider that a bug. It is simply a limitation of WLM. Although it should be able to be worked around.

It's already a workaround, as you can't transfer more than three files at the same time. Anyway, it's not possible to do a further workaround, as the Auto-Accept basically sends Alt+A to the window, which will only ever trigger the last request.

can you not write a script that tests how many incoming files you have coming and and whats being dealt with by WLM and the script then queues the rest to start transferring proactively when one of the first 3 finishes. alternatively how about a script that checks from client side whether or not transfer has started if transfer not started it resends the file on a timer cycle of x amount of minutes until the file is eventually logged as transfer in progress.. just a thought.

No, as you can't detect incoming files by script at the moment.
