No it wont, ever.  Patchou has been working on Messenger Plus! for years and he's not going to make it open source so loads of n00bs can just change the credits and release it as their own program
SoundPacks   -   Scripts   -   Skins

that's not a bug, thats an unexpected feature

Hi,

Messenger Plus! is better kept closed source, then you wont get loads of other n00bie w00bie's trying to edit little stuff and re-releasing it under their name.


Kind Regards,

well it was not intended as flaim orso, i just though heck things liek emule are also op-source, if you want 64bits you just have to re-compile it as 64bits....

Then your just silly...

Sorry I would have used a worse word but didn't want my post deleted...

The latest line of AMD processors (Venice and San Diego) kill anything Intel has to offer. Even take a look at their dual core offerings and they smash Intel in 90% of the tests. Not to mention AMD run cooler, quieter, use less power, have more features across the board and are cheaper (apart from their dual core chips which are more expensive than intel but perform better).

I don't know maybe where you live Patchou you need a Prescott processor to use as a heater to keep you warm

As for 64 bit Intel processors, they have been available for a while now...

http://techreport.com/onearticle.x/7998

AMD has had this support (as well as NX bit and everything else intel introduced in their 600 series since SEPTEMBER 2003).

And Windows XP x64 was offically released over a month ago.

Someone is a bit behind the times

Edit: Has someone tried to run MsgPlus on XP Pro x64? Does it install but just doesn't work properly? Or does it refuse to install or what?

Im with Patchou on this one as well....

Some of use just like Intel....We dont care for benchmarks or anything we just like the company and will continue to be loyal to them as much as we can. Really if we're set on Intel dont try to make us switch over to AMD. We're happy with what we've got and thats it.

(Ontopic:)
Like Patchou said I dont think there will be much benifit (other than running 64bit code on a 64 bit processor) by releasing Messenger Plus! 64 (It accually has a nice ring to it :P). Plus! doesnt do any complex calculations or anything. I think the only reason would be so it natively runs on a native processor.
