NeoWin Messenger

[chacho]

I think I'm partially to blame for this. I'm the one who was running the server program yesterday and I don't have a static IP. The IP address for the server is hard-coded into the program.

So, would someone with a fast Internet connection that is always on, and who has a static IP please step up to the plate?

maybe the program could be integrated with/use no-ip?

im thinking of making a Neowin messenger were you can see who is online in neowin and send them a messege.. why am i goin to do this well coz neowin rocks!!!...if anyone wants to help please comment here.. :happy:

why not hard code in a free dns address from say dyndns.org.. then who ever is on, can update the dns to point to their computer....

Sorry all been away since yesterday. Between then and now I have fixed many critical bugs

So, would someone with a fast Internet connection that is always on, and who has a static IP please step up to the plate?

Yes.. if anyone has this, and dosnt mind donating a small area of their systray to run the server app, it would be much appriciated. A static IP is prefered. Although anyone running the server app wont be able to use the messenger program yet, as they both will use the same port + address

Next Neowin Messenger update in a couple of hours hopefully

static i found an odd bug...

if you select logon then private message the ip 127.0.0.1 while its connecting.. you log onto your self....is that something you've found?

edit: by this i mean it stays connected.. doesnt say host not found...

yes the whole IP to IP message system (not buddy list) needs a revamp which i will probably do tommrow. at the moment im trying to fix this annoying bug where the buddylist dosnt get updated when someone logs off.

I was thinking how come the messenger has to be square, just a question.. I know this is still early on, but seems that everytime I look at a popular IM they are all square...

If we are able to see the other users that are on the messenger that would be nice, without having to add people....

still appealing for someone with a static IP address :p

There was a problem connecting with the server. Check the server address. I get this error.

I can type my sign in name fine.

[Crazysah]

0.1.4 will be released as soon as a static server is up

I have ceased connection with 0.1.3 at the moment, as its pointless with no server running

[enigma-penguin Veteran]

[Crazysah]
