2.00.16 |
January 10, 2003 |
- Using /me commands with 2.00.15 with emoticons didn't produce good results. It is due to some testing I've done before the release of this version and I forge to remove some comments in my code.
- Going in the Appearance tab (where the language is displayed) shouldn'T crash your Messenger anymore.

2.00.15 |
January 10, 2003 |
- Personalised Away, Station Lock First-Time and Boss Protection First-Time windows are now displayed at the top of every window everytime when activated.
- Setup does not refuse to install anymore by giving a false "You must have Messenger 4.6 installed" message.
- In Windows XP, if Messenger 5 is installed, Messenger 5 is launched at the end of Messenger Plus! setup.
- Contacts email adresses are encrypted in the registry. Because of that, data recorded in previous versions of Messenger Plus! will be lost (for Contact Manager). Also, old entries are not deleted automatically. It is the responsability of the user, if he wants to protect his privacy and if he installed a previous version of Messenger Plus! 2.00, to clean his registry or uninstall MP2 before installing this new version.
- Better banner hiding when the Messenger contact window is maximized
- "Personalised Status" is not shown multiple times in the title bar of Messenger. Also the text will be correctly shown every time it is relevant.
- Added support for multiple monitors. It should solve Quick Icon panel problems... let me know!
- Fixed bug in logs... when "Truncate Contact Name" was not selected for logging, name of the contacts were not logged for action messages (/me).
- Tried a fix for the Share button problem "You can't send a directory".
- Added a bunch of new events in the Event Viewer.
- Logs are correctly saved when Windows is rebooted.
- When you double click on an item in the Event Viewer, a simple window is displayed with all the associated information.
- Possible support of beta versions of Windows higher than Windows XP (like Windows .NET or Longhorn). However, I didn't tested it.
- When the Event File name is incorrect, it is automatically fixed by the software.
- Added a warning when going in the Preferences the first time if no user signed-in yet (preferences are saved by account so in that case, first time you loggin you will lose all your previously recorded settings).
- Messenger 5 Compatibility Info message modified to be more understandable.
- When the Personalised Away window times-out and disapears by itself, Personalised Away mode is not activated.

2.00.11 |
December 30, 2002 |
- This private alpha version was leaked to the public by one of the testers.
- Pfieww.... and I thought this was going to be a small update.... :)
- Same important bug fixed again (chats being messed up)... this time, for real I hope. Merry Christmas and have a happy new year! :)
- Action messages and Personalised Status messages now show emoticons in contact names
- Again? yes again... auto-update should work better in next versions
- Little corrections in the dialog boxes of the software.
- Chinese characters are now logged correctly in the event log under Windows 9x
- Custom color now supports HTML-like input (#FF00A4 for example)
- Chat Logging is more intelligent... when you close your IM window and reopen it after a short time period, the header in the log file is not recreated.
- Added a Share button in the icon bar of IM windows. Use it to send Messenger Plus! directly to yoru contacts!
- Added a Share menu item in IM windows
- Added a fix to prevent crashes when exiting MEssenger.. waiting for your feedback
- Auto Away delay is fixed (it was sometimes reset to 1440)
- Messenger Plus! does not unload when you logoff/logon in Windows 9x.
- Fixed a bug that crashed Messenger when you exited it
- In Messenger 5, right clicking on a notification make it disappear (not right clicking on the notification text/button.... the area around it).
- Contact Sounds are not played while in Boss Protect or Lock Station mode.
- Some IM menus are disabled when the contact is blocked (or whenever the edit box is disabled).
- Note more "has modified his phone" event when a contact is added
- MP2 now supports MSN Messenger 5 in Windows XP! that's a very very important update and I count on all of you to test it real good. This support can be removed in the Various panel of the Preferences. Only limitation: the Messenger icon in the systray will look like the old one. I really think it's not a big deal.
- MP2 should now be compatible with polygamy patch.. I've not tested it though. If someone can, I would appreciate that.
- Things that didn't worked well when a new IM was created by someone else (someone talking to you for the first time, not you clicking on a contact to talk to him) should now work correctly (this includes the Override Text Format option).

2.00.08 |
December 24, 2002 |
- Private alpha version. Messenger Plus! was completely re-coded for version 2. Details of MP2 versions before 2.00.08 are not available.
- Important bug fixed concerning emoticons in contact names and usage of Personalised Status. It generally messed up all the text.

- Setup now requires Messenger 4.6 to run, not 4.5
- Messenger Plus! Update notification now shows the progress of the download. You'll see that for the next update (probably end of week to do a test).
