MSN 5 released


Recommended Posts

I had wondered what those .pobj files were, but looking at them in TextEdit shows that they are simply XML.? Cool!:DD

Great! Let's get rid of that tab bar!:pp

Edit:

In case anyone wants it here are two replacement buddy pop-up screens without the ugly MSN logo. Just replace the current ones in the Microsoft Messenger.rsrc file with ThemePark.

Thanks! As you can see on the pic it has a bug, the bottom bar is too thin to fit the resize thingy > it's overlapping a part of the contact list and looks especially ugly when the scrollbar is visible.

not bad, but all you did is stretch the contact list, i did that before, i'm looking for a way to completely remove the the tabs, but everytime i do the main window wont load (im guessing its crashing)

its nice that you posted the file for everyone to use though

I just did! :) A quick question does it really matter if they're hidden or gone, just curious

They are actually hidden and the main contact window is repositioned, if you try to actually remove them the contact list will not show up (mallformed code I guess).

Anyone having problems being disconnected? with the old MSN4.0 and 3.0 I would be disconnected constantly with the msg "you have been disconnected to the internet so you have been signed out of Messenger" Same with 5.0 ..... which is wrong since I am still connected! with Adium I can sign on and it will never disconnect me ever.

Why are Microsoft doing this to us? :( and did anyone notice the date of the build? 15th of July

I haven't been disconnected since the download was available (about 5.5 hours ago).

I doubt you can patch something massive like that into Messenger 5 without recoding the whole thing. I mean half the interface needs to be adapted let alone the video/audio support itself.

I've gone back to Adium lol, I was looking forward to this release but its not that good. There is now no way to remove the little timer when someone sends you a msg, and when I deactivate the in msg display pictures there is still a big white box there where the display picture would fit... :( Never mind.
