Messenger Plus! Live 4.82 by Patchou on 06-30-2009 at 09:55 PM

Hi all,

A new version of your Messenger add-on is now available on this very web site. Version 4.82 will probably be one of the last of the 4th generation of Messenger Plus! as work on version 5 will officially begin during summer. For that reason, a complete health check-up in Windows 7 has been performed in today’s release. Some things have been fixed, some other things have been by improved. One example of that in the tighter integration of Tabbed Chats with the new Aero preview thumbnails.

As usual, you can read about every improvements and bug fixes in the change log. You can also give your thanks to the translators and the beta testers who help make sure Messenger Plus! keeps being reliable and dependable, every step of the way. Among the improvements, because so many users now enjoy skins and scripts of all kinds, the Import/Export feature of Messenger Plus! now back-ups your entire scripts and skins settings. One less worry for you to have next time you format your computer or you want to bring your set of personal settings with you.

And finally, if you saw nothing else in the change log that motivates you to upgrade, consider this: this release integrates everything that will be needed for the Messenger Plus! 2009 Contest which will begin next week! More about that will be said soon, but those of you who’ve been using the software for some time will probably recognize the little golden icon in their contact list and the meaning of it… you’ll just have to be patient for one more week until the contest and its prizes are revealed :-).

Patchou

by the way patchou, unlike Quebec, the dollar sign for the rest of us is displayed in front of the dollar amount, not after

Hey Patchou!!!!:D

Thanks!

RE: Messenger Plus! Live 4.82 by Chancer on 07-01-2009 at 04:37 AM

Cool! Translation updates on the way!

Update: nice Windows 7 features!

The last missing feature is to drag one convo out of the window (when tabbed chat is enabled), separate from the others. And, if possible merge 2 windows.

Work on Messenger Plus! 5 will begin after a short break for Patchou; I will also begin revamping the suggestions list shortly.

Congratulations for the release Patchou! :)

I will probably have my sister playing in the contest for me since I will be away from next Monday.

RE: Messenger Plus! Live 4.82 by ahmetgns on 07-01-2009 at 05:23 PM

Thanks for the new version, especially for the contest. I have missed it very much for 2 years. I always find it very entertaining, and of course easy to play (but difficult to win) :)

RE: Messenger Plus! Live 4.82 by blessedguy on 07-01-2009 at 05:39 PM

By the way, wasn't this version the one that would change the old Messenger 8.5 buddy icons in Plus! to those WLM2009 new ones? Or was it Plus! 5? =)

Same question here, also will version 5 change its appearance to look like Messenger 9 wave? I think the old one deserves an update :P

BTW thanks for the news Patchou, I´m waiting for that contest too :D

Messenger Plus! 5 will not be released sooner than next year.  Therefore, it is likely that we will see Windows Live Messenger 2010 before Messenger Plus! 5.
RE: Messenger Plus! Live 4.82 by Patchou on 07-02-2009 at 09:54 PM


The icons will be modified in Plus! 5. I hesitated for this update but finally decided Plus 4 woud just keep his current look.

RE: Messenger Plus! Live 4.82 by mathieumg on 07-03-2009 at 01:56 AM

Thanks! :)

Looking forward to the contest and MP!L 5 as well :)

RE: Messenger Plus! Live 4.82 by Hinyer on 07-03-2009 at 05:47 AM

thanks patch

RE: Messenger Plus! Live 4.82 by dbgarza on 07-04-2009 at 09:46 PM

It works like a charm! I'm currently using the hard disk I have with my Windows 7 RC1 installation and messenger plus works great.

Love the hability to go through the tabs from the Aero preview thumbnails, that's really useful.

Great work Patchou! :D

Wow, thats like 5 months until another major release, that is a very long time for nothing new to occur, but, oh well, nice release Patchou! Installing now.

Thanks very much.  Works Perfectly on RC1!

RE: Messenger Plus! Live 4.82 by The_Joker on 07-11-2009 at 07:08 PM

Thanks. The tabbed chats look cool. (H)
Any chance it will be fixed for RTL versions of WLM by the 5.00 release? I can't see it myself :(

P.S. yay! the contest is back! And next week is over here in a couple of hours...
