1. i have tweakUI enabled and the background seems transparent no matter what i do.

2. how do i get rid of the icons and the "no view mode" bar?

3. is there a plugin that supports characters other than english?

4. this might be my stupidity, but everytime i chat.... the chat window does not auto scroll to the new message, but instead moves up to old messages. which leads me having to scroll down to read new received messages.

thank you.

This isn't exactly in reference to customisation, but just a general problem I'm having with Miranda - it won't log onto AIM for me. It tries to log on for a bit, but no luck. Do I need to change my login sever settings and such?

It's been asked some posts before

Ok, i'm getting really frustrated about my message log. I'm not using any plugins for it, but to put it simply ibasically just want it looking like mynimal's. See here.

I'm not really sure what you want, but I think you want it to look like Mynimal's? So, let's see. Go to Options -> Events -> Message Log.

Uncheck: Show icons, Show times, Show dates, Show status changes.

For the fonts, change: Outgoing Messages, Incoming Messages, Message Area to the colour Black, and whatever font he's using (I can't tell, but it looks like Verdana bolded); Outgoing Name, Incoming Name, Outgoing Colon, Incoming Colon to Light Blue and the same font as the one he's using.

Background colour (above the font changes), change it to grey.

I think that's it.

I personally don't use AIM, but I think updating the AIM connectivity plugin usually works. Or maybe revert to an older version if you've already got the newest.

I have a related question. I've never had trouble editing the styles for the default SRMM, but my name always shows up as (unknown contact). How can I change that?

Like i said in the previous page, i don't have those options:

I presumed i would find those options under the Message Sessions > Message Log window, but there's basically every options but the ones i'm looking for.

You can customize the message log under

Options -> Message Sessions -> Message Window -> Message Log -> Standard templates...

Here is a screenshot:

Hi, Newest modern contactlist 0.4.1.4 unicode is totally invisible. Miranda 4.3.42 starts without crashing, but no icon in the system tray is visible and there is no way to access the contact list at all. Did also create a new profile ... same problem. Deleted all unneeded plugins, but nothing helps. can't create a versions info because, I can't access the main menu. I'm using WinXP Pro with SP2 installed, latest ICQJ plugin, and the png2dib from miranda core package and the imgdecoder. ???? Please have a look on it.

Hey i was wondering where i could get the clist and icons that are in this picture...http://www.deviantart.com/view/19030603/

and then also, what ieview template he is using...thanks guys

The ieview template is Longhorn by russellc.

Not sure about the other stuff you're after though sorry.

    • Playground drops 30 minutes of Fable gameplay, shows off life sim and morality system by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Playground Games gave fantasy RPG fans a new look at its Fable reboot last Sunday at the Xbox Games Showcase. While that was a short cinematic trailer revealing the main villain of the storyline, played by Hayley Atwell, today, the development team released an entire gameplay demo to show off the game in action. There is some combat and action near the end of it, but most of the demo is focused on the game's NPC simulation, relationships, choices players can make, and the complex reputation system. The studio is touting over 1,000 hand-crafted NPCs who have jobs, homes, routines they follow in their villages and outskirts, and a memory of what is going on in the world and what actions the player has done. All of these are voiced by real people too. The demo begins with a short interaction with a butcher who wants to kill a talking pig named Colin. The protagonist chooses to save Colin by paying the butcher a bunch of gold for his troubles, giving the hero a rise in reputation for being shrewd, merciful, and virtuous. There were also options to simply let Colin get killed or even fight the butcher for the pig instead of paying him. How NPCs judge the player depends on how they interact with the world. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doV0yq4kAP0 Later, the demo shows off how purchasing and managing businesses work, where players can hire employees, change their wages, tweak the price of the shop items, and reap profits if they do well. Different NPCs react differently to each type of reputation the player is touting. One shop owner jacks up prices by 80% just because the player is rich and owns businesses. The demo even shows the player deciding to attack random villagers and causing a ruckus in the streets, turning the hero into a criminal. This is where the magic combat systems are shown off, where the player can teleport, turn enemies into chickens, sword-fight, and more. "This is how you’ll build an extraordinary life in Fable. It’s all about shades of grey – it’s not us or the game telling you what is good and what is bad," says Dan Greer, Lead Game Designer. "With the Living Population, it’s the NPCs themselves judging your actions." Fable is releasing across PC and Xbox Series X|S on February 23, 2027. Premium Edition owners will be able to play starting on February 18 instead. Xbox Game Pass subscribers will also be able to jump in at launch for no extra cost.

    • My current phone, on left, is starting to go to sleep, and not turning on, even though I press the power button 100 times. Like CPR.   I tried factory resetting it, and nothing changed. So it's the hardware failing. I currently am using Twigby as my service provider. Cheapest I can get around here. But all their phones are carp.. https://www.twigby.com/shop/twigby-phones A friend warned me about the Moto G, as his neice has one, and isn't that good at $130. Also the Samsung A15 is laughable at best. Everything else is expensive af. I want android, (hate iOS) any version, that works with Twigby, under $100, please. Refurbished/Used is OK with me, as long as it isn't beat up.   If you know the IMEI number, you can see if it works with Twigby: https://www.twigby.com/page/byod
