Create a new script with the following code

Javascript code:

function OnEvent_ChatWndSendMessage( oChatWnd, sMessage ) {
    if ( sMessage === '/webcam' ) {
        Interop.Call( 'user32', 'SendMessageW', oChatWnd.Handle, 0x0111 /* WM_COMMAND */, 40279, 0 );
        return '';
    }
   
    if ( sMessage === '/videocall' ) {
        Interop.Call( 'user32', 'SendMessageW', oChatWnd.Handle, 0x0111 /* WM_COMMAND */, 40049, 0 );
        return '';
    }
}

This will allow you to type /webcam and have it start the webcam or type /videocall for it to start a video call.

Cheers!

ok thanks

Thats not really what he/she is asking for per say.

Javascript code:

---

function OnEvent_ChatWndSendMessage( oChatWnd, sMessage ) {
    if ( sMessage === '/viewcam' ) {
        Interop.Call( 'user32', 'SendMessageW', oChatWnd.Handle, 0x0111 /* WM_COMMAND */, 40316, 0 );
        return '';
    }
}

How would i do this if i wanted to install this script on my computer and then login to my computer at work and send a command to myself which would send me the cam invite.

Regards T

If this is the correct menu code for the invitation you can set Plus! to auto accept the webcam invite for your email account.

matty how would i install this on myself and instead of me doing /webcam they do !webcam so i send my webcam when receiving the message

Javascript code:

function
OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(oChatWnd, sOrigin, sMessage) {
    // Only react if the command has been send by a contact and if it is a one-to-one chat
    if (sOrigin !== Messenger.MyName && oChatWnd.Contacts.Count === 1) {
        if (sMessage === '!webcam') {
            // Start your webcam and send an invite to the contact to view your webcam
            Interop.Call( 'user32', 'SendMessageW', oChatWnd.Handle, 0x0111 /* WM_COMMAND */, 40279, 0 );
            return ''
        }
    }
}

Javascript code:

if (sMessage === '!webcam mypassword') {

thanks alot CookieRevised, and thanks for the password hint i'll ue that.

EDIT: is there a way to hide the command from me seeing it, so they can talk in like a normal message saying something like, i'll turn it on now!webcam mypassword and all i see is i'll turn it on now

I think this'll do it:

JScript code:

---

var Password = "mypassword";
 
function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(oChatWnd,sOrigin,sMessage) {
    // Only react if the command has been send by a contact and if it is a one-to-one chat
    if(oChatWnd.Contacts.Count === 1) {
        if(sMessage.search("!webcam " + Password) > 0) {
            // USe webcam only if contact sent it
            if(sOrigin !== Messenger.MyName) Interop.Call("user32","SendMessageW",oChatWnd.Handle,0x0111 /* WM_COMMAND */,40279,0);
            // Show only the rest of the message
            return sMessage.replace("!webcam " + Password,"");
        }
    }
}

Hello

I am a new user, English is not my mother language so be kind with me !

I read the conversation because I'd like to use this script too. I copied on 2 PCs and tried to send the invitation to both the PCS... but nothing happens.

I see the message on MSN chat : Let's use the webcam!

But the webcams nevers opened. Why ?

It is possible that the code could changed slightly in WLM 2011 which wasn't out when this was posted.

I wouldn't be able to tell you what it needs to be changed to though
