DeadAIM 4.0 is out, and is no longer freeware. Suffice to say there have been some significant changes made, though whether or not they're worth paying for is up to you. :no:

The following new features were added:

  • Buddy aliasing - rename the buddies on your buddy list to what you want.
  • New configuration screen.
  • Talking while away.
  • Transparency - Fade down transparency.
  • Tabbed IMs - Always on top.
  • Notifications - Select the time period for notification display.
  • Logging - Optional whether to log images and inline files.
  • Logging - Chatroom logging.

The following bugs were fixed:

  • Sometimes even if the "advertise DeadAIM in your profile" tick was not selected it would get added to the profile anyway.
  • Notifications - Clicking on notification alert replacements opened a window to the wrong screenname.

so i assume that the previous two threads of the same topic were deleted?

anyway, i'm waiting for a good reason to buy this software. till then i'm keeping my current version.

Yea because some of the participants encouraged cracks for it. They were also subsequently warned/restricted.

:unsure: you'd think if someone was willing to put that much effort in finding a crack, they'd be willing to drop a mere $5 for it

i, on the other hand, won't drop $5 of an addon to a FREEWARE service

The people at <a href='http://<< spam >>' target='_blank'>this site</a> have a cracked version and it works! You have to sign up to see the forum tho :\

....

for the love of god... IT'S ONLY FIVE DOLLARS... skip buying your big mac extra value meal for one day and pay the poor man.

did i buy it? yes, i did. because i still prefer AIM over trillian (back off) and i feel like anyone who writes software that i really enjoy - something that makes me smile and think "thank god for so-and-so's program" - deserves to be paid/recognized for it.

HAHAHAHA, Pure Gold. I am going to pay him too. Like the man said, it's only $5! It's incredibly cheap for what you get.

I bought it, nothing too special. I don't even really notice any changes. I would suggest sticking with the version you have.

When you pay for it, does it let you download it immediately; or do you have to wait for JDennis to email you a registration code/website link/whatever? I'm about to buy this thang and I want to use it right away....

AOL is gonna bitch at him sooo hard, im just waiting

Why would they? Because AIM is free and he's attempting to profit off of it? If that's true then JDennis clearly didn't think this out enough when he first implemented this in 3.2.1....That's why I have a version of 3.2.1 archived on my hard drives....somewhere......hopefully...

an email is sent, with a download link (that's only active for 12hrs) and your serial. that email came to me *immediately*, though - i closed my paypal window in Opera, opened a new tab, logged into my email.com account, and it was already there, waiting for me.

    • Microsoft Edge 149.0.4022.52

      It's time to say goodbye to Edge and switch back to Firefox. There's no way to disable the ugly rounded corners that appear everywhere. Not even on the page frame. No one uses screens with rounded corners, you idiots.

    • Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The mind behind widely well-received games like Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and The Last Guardian, Fumito Ueda, showed up at Summer Game Fest today, and that was to reveal his latest project. Being developed by genDESIGN, Gen Atlas is incoming with what looks to be plenty of mech and robot action. Watch the reveal trailer, which makes not much sense, above. The game will have players waking up on an abandoned planet where deserted facilities and grand designs from the original creators remain. Soon, they will stumble upon a colossal robot, from which players gain access to the power to change the world. "Across an endless expanse of time, the remnants of those forgotten constructs begin to move once more," adds the studio. The gameplay snippets seen in the trailer show the player character climbing giant robots (as expected from the creator), while also controlling these titans somehow as well. This is a fully single-player open-world adventure. “The team and I are grateful to all the fans who’ve been eager to learn more about our game,” says Fumito Ueda, CEO and creative director of genDESIGN. “Their passion and enthusiasm has always motivated and inspired us. We hope to share an experience that inspires moments of quiet wonder and discovery.” Before gaining the name Gen Atlas, Ueda first announced this project back in 2024 with the codename Project Robot. Interestingly, this will be a project being funded and published by Epic Games, which should mean that a Steam release is out of the question. Gen Atlas will be releasing on Epic Games Store, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced just yet.

      How backwards can you have it? Yes, Linux was gaining because of Linux handhelds and the push for gaming compatibility, but that's not desktop users, it barely converts anyone who owns a SteamDeck, though it helps for those who wanted to do it, but anyways, the AI+RAM debacle helped Linux because people can't easily upgrade their PCs easily and many hate AI so they'd be incentivized to try Linux.
