4.85.386? by Mnjul on 07-24-2010 at 10:00 AM

I just checked Plus! download page and it shows the latest version is 4.85.386 released this Monday. Nothing in the change logs. Any ideas?

Just installed it.  Can't any visible differences.  :S  Maybe something to do with the WLM 2011 beta?

That's alright, I have XP.  Besides, from what I've heard, I think I'll avoid 2011 for as long as possible.  ;)

Messenger Plus! Live 4.85.386 (19/07/2010)
  • Microsoft recently released a beta version of Messenger 2010/2011 (Wave 4). Although Messenger Plus! is not compatible with the new version yet, this new release properly detects the beta and do some basic initialisation for things like the auto-update feature.
  • When the new Messenger beta is detected, Messenger Plus! adds its usual "Software not loaded" menu in the contact list. From this menu, the compatibility window can be displayed to display some information and, more importantly, to let more advanced users disable "safe mode".
    -- When safe mode is disabled with the beta, Messenger Plus! activates some of its functionalities. Using Messenger Plus! in this mode may cause all sorts of errors to occur, no support will be given for beta versions of Messenger.
    -- If you experience issues after disabling safe mode, use the Maintenance wizard (available from the uninstaller) to revert Messenger Plus! to its normal state.
  • The Repair Wizard of the uninstaller now resets the "safe mode" setting of Messenger Plus! even if user preferences are not erased.

Can anyone confirm which features do work when disabling safe mode?

RE: 4.85.386? by robert_dll on 07-26-2010 at 06:37 PM

Messenger Lock and Event Logger work, those are the only relevant features (imo) that I have seen working. Chat history, text formatting, etc, etc. are not working.

RE: 4.85.386? by blessedguy on 07-26-2010 at 06:44 PM

Can resources be extracted?

RE: 4.85.386? by robert_dll on 07-26-2010 at 07:29 PM

Seems like it can't decode UIB files. Pictures, bitmaps, icons and so on can be extracted.

RE: 4.85.386? by djdannyp on 07-26-2010 at 08:14 PM

Hmm......chat logging is one of the main features I use from Plus! so I won't be upgrading just yet then ;)

RE: 4.85.386? by coolzee on 07-26-2010 at 09:39 PM

it would be great to have plus! with the new wlm beta, but it would be better to wait for the final version. :)
