I have to ask this in here as well... if only I could see tiny display pictures in the contact list, I'd be sold to use A-Patch now and forever. It's the only reason why I'm still waiting for Mess Patch (which seems to be slow when it comes to adapting new beta releases...). Please add this feature!

Change log (build 3)

- Fixed: Window Title padding in Contact List when Logo is removed.

- Fixed: Toast Logo was being removed when Remove Toast DP was selected.

- Minor program updates.

Praise be to God.

Pulling an "all nighter" I'm 7 hours past my bedtime with a sore back, but I made it, A-Patch has been updated for Windows Live Messenger 8.5!

With a new (beta) version of Windows Live Messenger (8.5) comes a new and improved A-Patch. A-Patch makes patching Messenger easier than ever before. Not only are there tonnes of options to choose from, but now there's a (rough) Preview which lets you see the changes as you select them! (A change log will be added once I've come back from work and caught up on some sleep.)

Change log (build 1):

- Removed "Remove Extra Padding from the Contact Manager Bar" option - no longer needed.

- Removed greyed out "Remove Packs Button" option - no longer needed.

- Removed "Add Send Button to Handwriting Tab" option - no longer needed as Microsoft decided to implement it themselves ;)

- Removed "Add Custom Games" option - doesn't work.

- Removed "Add Always On Top Button(s)" - didn't want to mess up the new caption buttons.

- Changed "Remove 'Get a webcam' Link" to "Remove 'Get Accessories' Link".

- Removed "Descriptions" button because now the descriptions are permanently viewable.

Few other misc fixes.

- Added the "Preview Area" which shows the customization effects as you click each option (this will be tweaked further :) )!

More options will be added when the User Interface of Windows Live Messenger becomes finalised.

MASHALLAH brother....keep up the great work

see we can't make the display pictures small again...

Besides.. mess-patch sucks (N), they take too long to make it, and only reason it's on the market.. is because they have mess.be to back it up.. A-patch is the original patcher, and WAS posted on mess.be before mess found a coder to make the mess patch..

LONG LIVE APATCH

Thanks for your compliments, but the truth is Mess Patch started out one complete year before A-Patch and was posted on mess.be from day one. Besides, there is no recollection of A-Patch ever being posted on mess.be.

    • Really? Despite the memory price rises, nothing can kill it? I thought something would.
    • I think there will be a 27H1 for actual users of 26H1 The 25h2 supports ARM too : Snapdragon X, Snapdragon X Plus and Snapdragon X Elite
    • Poll: Grand Theft Auto VI price predictions, cast your vote by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe After years of waiting, Rockstar will be solidifying the launch date of Grand Theft Auto VI with the launch of pre-orders next week. While the studio has confirmed a date for this occasion, it is yet to attach a price to the highly anticipated game. So let's see what our readers think it will cost at launch. The Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders will kick off on June 25 for digital and physical editions. Unless some last-minute changes happen, the release date will be November 19, 2026, across Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. Unfortunately, there's still no information about a PC version from the developer or the publisher Take-Two. Now the question becomes, how much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost at launch? The game is predicted by some analysts to be the biggest launch of an entertainment product ever. With the amount of hype that has been built behind it and with ballooning development costs, Take-Two may price this Grand Theft Auto entry differently from other AAA titles. The current price of a AAA game is $69.99. That norm almost rose to $79.99 before calming down. But with such a massive release, Grand Theft Auto VI may be the game that pushes the boundary again. It's also possible that Take-Two keeps the price relatively low to increase the number of players that jump in early and keep them hooked on Grand Theft Auto Online to spend on microtransactions for years to come. Keep in mind that the below poll is asking for a prediction of the standard edition price, not a deluxe or any other special edition that Take-Two will introduce for additional benefits. Also, there is the chance of the company splitting up the campaign and online portions. If you think that will happen, put your vote on what you think will be the total cost of the two. Poll Poll: How much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost? $59.99 $69.99 $79.99 $89.99 $100 or more Submit Vote If you have a very specific prediction in mind, sound off in the comments below.
