Compatibility. I desirably want a good im that uses most major services. i did use trillian but since it hasn't been updated in so long. than gui and pretty stuff next. of course nothing looking like windows 98ish is impressive but compatibility is high for me.

i shall beta test.

I don't use MSN Messenger for its name. I use it for its features and because other people use it. :sleep:

I'm just saying iMessenger sounds like iNSTANT Messenger which is copyrighted by AOL they own the whole IM they have a patent, so becareful. :laugh:

Honestly the last thing I need is another IM Program.. can't you make a plugin for one of our already existing IM Apps.

hmmm i got all this

Yahoo, MSN, ICQ, AIM, XFIRE....ugh.. now another. :s

I don't use Trillian because I enjoy using the multimedia features of each application serperately.

the man has got a strong point there, why not just make a plugin for say miranda or something, which it'l be better since i already use it :p . Or you can go ahead an keep making the nMessenger as you said, hopefully many people will use. Good luck with it btw....

rotflmgdfao - yeah, all would be nice, but priorities:

1) interoperability between different messaging systems

2) Ability to load more than one instance of each type (I have 2 ICQ accounts, 1 yahoo, 1 AIM, 3 Messenger accounts, etc...)

3) very low resource consumption - in other words, write is in Assembly! (lol - all praise Steve Gibson)

Why is this called iMessenger, it's like something made by Apple.  How about calling it NeoIM or something.

dL

Sigh... Not Everything that has a "I" at the start has to do with apple and if apple dont like the sound of the messenger then we will simply change it. Plus "I" is A letter and Apple cant copyright a letter someone mentioned this before..

:whistle: :rolleyes: ;)

What will be the point of it? I can really see the attraction if its just for neowinians so you can just add people by neowin username etc.

I'm slightly worried that "Msn, Yahoo,Aim,Icq..Compatibility" is on that list ^ What would be the point in having neoIM at all if it was compatible? :wacko:

Why do we need another Messenger program??? Using the chat will bring more and more people to the site.. The chat is just like a messenger but better.... The chat just needs to be known to the whole neowin community...

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets big bug-fixing and balancing update

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Forza Horizon 6 gets big bug-fixing and balancing update by Taras Buria Today, Playground Games released a big Forza Horizon 6 update with a long list of fixes, patches, and balancing tweaks that the studio promised earlier. Version 375.327 is now available on Steam, Microsoft Store, and Xbox, offering users improvements for AI, audio, design, performance, road discovery, upgrades, visuals, online play, and more. Some of the most notable changes in the Series 2 update include rebalanced drivatars, particularly their difficulty and race start behavior. As such, the game should be more balanced on higher difficulty levels, and AI cars should not shoot out when the race starts as if they have rocket boosters. Speaking of difficulty, developers nerfed Drag Tires physics for a more expected and realistic behavior. They are no longer the go-to option for record-breaking times in road racing, and all leaderboard entries with drag tires will be removed. Completionists will also be glad to get a new feature that lets you see road discovery percentage in each region, which should make discovering all roads easier while keeping it quite challenging and interesting (I spent quite a long time finding the last road). Festival Playlist is also getting some much-needed fixes, including patches for bugs that allowed completing Seasonal Jobs ahead of time or where weekly challenges would not unlock for some players. Developers will retroactively give reward points to all who could not complete all challenges due to these bugs. Other changes include changes to Horizon Play progression so that it is easier to reach Level 100, audio improvements on lower-spec devices, fixes for visual glitches, including pixelated smoke, and more. Developers also addressed the currently non-working Eliminator, an online mode gamers used to farm credits with a Hummer EV exploit. Playground Games plans to re-enable it soon. As a gesture of goodwill, players will get a free McLaren Sabre. Those who used the exploit will not be banned, but developers plan to roll back credits to a maximum of 10M for all who farmed credits using the exploit. You can find the complete changelog for the latest Forza Horizon 6 update here.
