the new msg plus by automatic91 on 10-30-2008 at 07:33 AM
is there any chance we can get some low down on some of the new features that are going to be in the newest msg plus??
i sent a pm to lou offering my ideas and these included:
ability to remove all the advertisements and annoying buttons (similar to the A patch)
an imitate feature like msg discovery
and ones that i forgot to mention:
removing the "groups" in msg 9 as i have an empty group called "groups" which realy irritates me
grouping convo replies for people who give many short replies in succession so make it like:
BLAH says:
*hi how are you
*it was an interesting day wasnt it
instead of
BLAH says:
hi how are you
BLAH says:
it was an interesting day wasnt it
and last idea... make it that nicks in convos can be fixed so its like...
he says:
you say:
instead of having HUMUNGOUS nicks in your convo

Simply go Tools > Options > Messages > Group sequential messages from each contact together

Simply give a nickname to your contact like this:
Right click on a contact > add a nickname.
To shorten your own name, you can use stuffplugs Chat-Only Name feature. See www.stuffplug.com/

Glad i could be of some help 
Welcome to the forums
RE: the new msg plus by NanaFreak on 10-30-2008 at 07:45 AM
1. removing the ads is against the terms and conditions of windows live messenger so patchou will not implement this
2. imitate feature is already done by many scripts, search the script database for these
3. i dont know about groups in wlm 9.0 but in 8.0, 8.1 and 8.5 there was no way for plus to work with groups so this may not be able to be done
4. the grouping of messages is a feature in 8.5 and as i have not used 9.0 i do not know if it is still a feature... in 8.5 if you go: options > messages > check "Group sequential messages from each contact together"
5. this could be done i think if patchou re-adds his nickname stuff from previous versions, this was going to happen but i dont know if he has gotten around to it (reason for it not already being in is that he was waiting for the wlm team to update theirs, which they havent as of yet... for 8.5 and i dont know about 9.0)
i hope this helps you with what you were after...
edit: bah damn you thermal ]=

even if i click on the actually emoticon picture or if i type the shortcut... my friend said she can see it as the emoticon, but how do i fix this, so i see the emoticon in my conversation??
i already put settings as "show emoticons" and "show custom emoticons" so i dont see why its screwing up...
i can show a printscreen if u wna see it for urself
RE: the new msg plus by Th3rmal on 10-30-2008 at 08:53 AM
IIRC, some people have been having trouble with their custom emoticons, im sure if you do a search of the forums you will find their posts/threads and see what they did and if their problem was fixed or not.

This bug was confirmed by the Windows Live Messenger team and will be fixed in the next build.
For information, even if you can't see your custom emoticon, when you send the shortcut your contact will see it
