Online - Here

Offline - Not Here

On The Phone - Doh..

Out to lunch - Doh..

Invisible - Hiding :p

Away - Not Here

What does NA Stand for? and Occupied like busy etc. what are they

thanks.

Ok... installed them... and loving them... by far the most complete set for miranda.

Now for the questions:

I am using Tabsrmm and smileyadd... any way to display animated smileys in the message log, not just the picker?

Also... i wanted to customize it a bit more... So i opened the .asl file and edited the following line:

Smiley = "Be right back.png", -125, "(brb) ", "Be Right Back"

to

Smiley = "Be right back.png", -125, "(brb) ", "Be Right Back", "brb", "BRB"

Saved, reloaded, restarted... it won't budge. Still won't display "brb", and "BRB" as an emot.

that is a bug that i have experience with Russellc Gonedark ie template.

Hey everyone,

Sorry I've been somewhat "ignoring" the Windows community. As you may or may not know, I've switched to the Mac platform myself :shifty: and to be honest, I have not looked back to Windows for any use whatsoever. The bug, as a matter of fact, is actually fixed (on my PC), but I haven't had the chance to upload it seeing how my host trashed itself a very long time ago. What with university preparations and whatnot, I have much to prepare as well, so I have not had that much time. I'll try my best to update it as soon as I can! Sorry again, for the lack of updates for anything :/

is there any way i can get miranda to not minmize games like counter strike and call of duty while i am playing them...its very annoying becasue when miranda is open itll minimize the game and show miranda :(

Are you sure its in there like this

C:/x/x/miranda/plugin/smileyaddw.dll

and not

C:/x/x/miranda/plugin/smileyaddw/smileyaddw.dll

Sometimes when you extract it will creat a folder and you dont want that you just want the dll to be in the plugin folder.

also... smileaddw.dll is in the plugin diectory...not its own folder, i still dont know what is wrong :(

For smileyadd... Do you even see it in the plugins listing?

And as for windows popping out, install Tabsrmm. You can configure it there.

Loving the fix russellc, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to change the background colour of the messages (not the background image itself, but the 'bars' behind the text). Is it the transGrey and transGreyContext pngs? Or is it some hex colour I'm supposed to change in the css files?

add the line height: 11px; at the end of .content in main.css , that worked for me

Thanks bsommer for the suggestion, but it didn't pan out. Instead, I fixed it by editting the style css file (I chose to mod Arctic) and inserting

'background: url(../images/specify image here);' in the .content section.

Works like a charm! :D

Btw, does anyone have any good suggestions for clist icons to go with my miranda? These don't fit anymore:

On my contact list, I have avatars being shown on the right side. Exactly like this:

http://addons.miranda-im.org/files/screens...405-scr_333.jpg

However, some avatars do not appear and show the default Miranda MSN icons.

The way I get my contact's avatars to be displayed is:

Right Click > User Details > Update Now, for each contact.

I know they have avatars because when I message them, it shows up in the conversation window, while people who flat out don't have avatars show nothing in the conversation window.

PS: For those who just don't have avatars, is there a way to add one for them myself onto the contact list?

For some reason my clist_nicer plugin wont work. I've got IEView 1.0.9.5 installed too, and clist_nicer 0.3.4.11. When I check clist_nicer in the plugins menu and restart Miranda, it's unchecked again. I'm Using Miranda 0.5 Unicode. Any help on how I can get it to work please? Thanks!

    • They couldn't have done a better job, this is beautiful!
    • Oh, of course not. The real "victims" are the people who snipe kids in the head, have killed more journalist than all the worlds wars combined, do double tap strikes on medical personnel, claim history started on October 7th, have a $700 million dollar annual Hasbara budget and pay influencers $7k a post to spout exactly this kind of propaganda. How dare you question the most moral army in the world. Victimhood belongs to these genocidal freaks alone. Anyone who denies that is literally Hitler. If you're going to support a terrorist state, the least you could do is come up with better talking points.
    • Gears of War: E-Day brings 12-player co-op, smoother traversal mechanics, and more by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Right as the Xbox Games Showcase came to an end today, The Gears of War developer The Coalition took over to show off its next project: E-Day. This prequel project was announced back in 2024, but now we have a lot more details about its campaign, new gameplay mechanics, and even a release date. The studio says this is the first time it has managed to get the time to build the entire game in a new engine, as it had worked non-stop on new titles for years while porting classic code and assets. With Unreal Engine 5 now powering Gears of War: E-Day, The Coalition says it started completely anew, with all assets, animations, environments, and others being built from scratch. The campaign will take place across three days in the city of Kalona. The story will follow the events through the eyes of Bravo Squad. This is made up of the returning classic duo Marcus and Dom, as well as the new characters Mags Carter and Lucas Reyes. Watch the trailer below to see Marcus in action without his iconic armor and gear, just as the Locust invasion kicks off. The story will draw on classic Gears novels like Aspho Fields as well, with the studio even collaborating with author Karen Traviss. "That continuity is what makes the destruction land," says the studio. "In E-Day, you watch a living city torn apart—homes still lit, meals half-finished—while people abandon their cars and run for cover. Small details—a child’s toy, an uneaten dinner—make the loss real as everyday places collapse under the Locust assault." The movement system is getting a big overhaul here. Players will be able to slide while running, jump across gaps, climb head-height covers, and even crawl on the ground to avoid fire from enemies. As for the returning horde mode, The Coalition teased a new 12-player PvE mode. This will involve three squads of Gears going up against the incoming Locusts in larger city maps than usual. The studio says that it is going to reimagine the classic formula just as co-op games are going through a resurgence. Multiplayer was touched on today too, where Versus is coming back touting four versus four Gears PVP action set across Kalona maps. More details about multiplayer will be revealed later. Open beta weekends are kicking off this August for fans wanting to jump in early too. Gears of War: E-Day is releasing on Xbox Series X|S and PC on October 6 with pre-orders available now. It will also be a part of Xbox Game Pass on day one. Microsoft has confirmed this as an Xbox platform exclusive, as there are no plans to bring it to PlayStation or Switch.
    • Microsoft announces the return of Xbox exclusives with Gears of War and Clockwork Revolution by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft had plenty of announcements to make today at the Xbox Games Showcase celebrating 25 years of the gaming brand. Now, under the leadership of the new Xbox CEO Asha Sharma, Xbox games are going back to their original release methods. She appeared in the livestream itself to announce the return of Xbox console exclusives. This means two major upcoming games from first-party studios won't be coming to PlayStation or Nintendo consoles: Gears of War: E-Day from The Coalition and Clockwork Revolution from InExile. Both titles will only be coming out on Xbox Series X|S consoles and Windows PCs, ditching any plans they had for PlayStation. "These are not timed exclusives," confirmed Microsoft. "We’re committed to investing in and growing XBOX both on console and beyond." The company confirmed that any already announced Xbox titles for PlayStation, under previous leadership, will continue to arrive for the rival platform. This means games like the new Halo remake, Forza Horizon 6, Fable, and State of Decay 3 will still be available on PlayStation, either at launch or later. It sounds like any new projects announced by the company will avoid other consoles in the same way. Microsoft first opened the floodgates by bringing titles like Sea of Thieves, Grounded, Hi-Fi Rush, and Pentiment to PlayStation and Nintendo consoles back in 2024. Since then, almost every new game release from Xbox Game Studios has arrived for rival consoles alongside Xbox and PC. This decision follows Sony's plans to ditch its own multiplatform releases too. Outside of multiplatform live service titles, the PlayStation maker is even abandoning its PC porting endeavors that started years ago.
