Is there a plugin to show a sign in dialog for msn?

One to show a window or something to type user-id and password as I don't like to set it in the options.

This program never fail to make me find stuff in the options for hours.

Now how do I make the main window show up in the taskbar.

I think this is my third time installing Miranda in the course of this few years.

Just can't stick with it as its too customizable and I'm always lost in it.

The addons website is kind of messy and I can't seem to find things like a plugin for the sign in window.

Why I installed again?

Maybe my urge to shake off the bloated MSN Messenger came over me again.

alright, how the freak do i customize this thing? im a total virgin to miranda! i want to use the tango miranda skins and idk, i'm just really lost. it's doing nothing but freakin tick me off.

I would suggest starting off with miranda pack: http://www.miranda-pack.com/

Then work your way around skinning and other tweaks.

i installed the miranda- pack, but it doesn't have aol on it, only icq and jabber, how do i put aol support on it?

Alright, after a week of research I found out how to work with Miranda, lol. (The developers should really make it a little easier to work with)

The above picture has four things. The dark box on the right is my friends list for AIM, the middle are my current plugins, the top box on the left is the message I get everytime I sign on and the bottom left box is the message box I open up to send someone a message.

I have a few questions:

1) How do I get rid of the SNAC error?

2) I had TabsRMM installed but every time I would type a message to anyone, Miranda would stop working and I needed to restart it. So now I use srmm, which doesn't have many options. Anyone have any suggestions on what happened?

3) How can I skin the message window? I'd like to get the same color as the main contacts window.

I've installed popup plus trying to get the popus to show up whenever someone logs on or sends me a message, but i dont see any popup, the miranda icon in my systray just blinks.... any help?

You need Message Notify: http://addons.miranda-im.org/details.php?a...ile&id=2415

and NewStatus notify: http://addons.miranda-im.org/details.php?a...file&id=207

Put the AIM dll in your plugins folder: http://www.snaphat.com/aim/download.htm

1) I never heard/read of the SNAC error...maybe its a Vista thing given that you're hardly using any extra plugins.

2) A good alternative to Tabsrmm is Scriver: http://addons.miranda-im.org/details.php?a...ile&id=1885

3) It looks like only some alpha builds of TabSRMM support this right now: http://miranda.or.at/tabsrmm-articles/39/

I would suggest new Miranda users to also go over the customization guide over at miranda forums: http://forums.miranda-im.org/showthread.php?t=7001

how can i install this pack ?

http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/38893939/

this are copule DLLs/ICO files, go to "Icons" in Miranda options and one of the buttons there will let you set up the icons
OMG. This **** is impossible. Spent several hours trying to get it to work and nothing.. Well, the main window is kinda alright now but the message windows still look like shait. Anyone know how to fix my problem (see ss)?
you need IEView plugin, what you are trying to do is to set up skin for the window (border), not the content inside of the window (which is IEView plugin)

When I'm talking to people on MSN i get this error pop up A LOT!

---------------------------
MSN
---------------------------
Unrecognised error 800. The server has closed our connection

OK

Whats up with this?

    • 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.
