torrentthief Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 please add support for WLM 9 v14.0.5027.908 (wave 3 official beta), been out for a few days, no new a-patch out yet though:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmorris003 Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 they said there is protection that is stopping them so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Berry Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 See, you can modify the executable/DLLs interface code, but the changes you make aren't reflected within Messenger itself, giving hint that some kind of protection or dummy code is at play here. Stuff like the contact list ad and stuff like that aren't possible right now. However you can remove the IM text ads and stuff like that using something like MessPatch Light.

ahmz Posted September 20, 2008 Author Share Posted September 20, 2008 Praise be to God. Due to the new protection in the new version of Windows Live Messenger, I can only bring you 7 options at the moment. The gurus in the Messenger community are working hard on bypassing this protection, and once it's done I will be able to bring you the normal 70+ options that A-Patch contains, God-Willing, please be patient and thank you all for your continued support :) At the moment the current options available are: Polygamy Remove Advertisement (in IM window) Remove Nudge Delay Remove Nudge Shake Remove Featured Content Accept more than 3 files (transfers) at a time Disable Windows Live Spaces Contact Card Integration http://apatch.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Berry Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Since it's now possible to patch the ads due to the efforts of certain wonderful individuals, a full A-Patch should be coming soon for the new beta. :) Ahmz055, could you please please please add the feature to swap artist and song like Mess Patch has? If you can add that, I can say goodbye to Mess Patch forever. :) Pleaseeeeee. *begs* :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ahmz Posted September 21, 2008 Author Share Posted September 21, 2008 Praise be to God. I'd like to thank TheSteve and also give shoutouts to Willz, Ipab, TB & Matt Hollwood for working on the "protection" work-around, now we finally go back to customizing Messenger like we used to! So after 8 hours straight updating A-Patch for Windows Live Messenger 9 version 14.0.5027.0908, with no further adue I can finally bring you A-Patch with a whopping 56 options to play with! Some options were removed because it seems that the Messenger team implemented them ;) And some more options will be added in future builds God-Willing, including the "Preview"! http://apatch.org/ I can finally see my username!

Boo Berry Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Question, some of the future enhancements going to include things like DPs on the left side, formatting toolbar on top of the input area, instead the bottom, and perhaps remove Groups from the contact list... in addition to that Artist/Song swap? :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahmz Posted September 21, 2008 Author Share Posted September 21, 2008 Possibly, I will look into more features once I have my sanity back from lack of sleep :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FiB3R Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 (edited) Not bad, I just wish I could get rid of those garish colours around everybody's DP, maybe have them in different shades of the same colour? And/or be able to have them ordered by availability. Also, removing the text from the title bar, doesn't seem to work, and I can't get my email button back :( Edited September 21, 2008 by DARKFiB3R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahmz Posted September 21, 2008 Author Share Posted September 21, 2008 You must "restore backups" to regain the Email button. If you patched again without restoring backups first, then you'll need to re-install Messenger (and delete the backups from the messenger directory).
