LeeC1987 Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 Nexus is composed of about 30 modules which are very large in size and that ive hand written so im probably to blame here, and the VB IDE keeps failing me.... Compiling it often causes the IDE to close without an error and many other strange things. Thats probably because of the API ive used that should be compiled to run, not testing inside an IDE. One theory is the spec of the machines, i run a 2800+ AMD with a gig of ram. Ive only tested Nexus on P4 equivalent machines with at least 512 MB of ram and Windows XP SP2. Ive had none of the errors found on this form. Though not everyone will have that kinda spec pc i understand. What i think i need to do to fix this problem, is to somehow find a way to make Nexus use less resources... then it may work. Its eating a good 30mb of ram on my machine right now... Did any of my previous versions of Nexus work for the people with 'System Error' ?

fock neow1n Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 It's normal for a .NET appilcation to use up 30 MBs of memory, that is how .NET works, in about 10 minutes that size should go down to what the application really uses.

ProclaimDragon Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 Wooo... I forgot to visit this thread once in a while and I missed so much. I've downloaded the latest version and I've been reading the last 4 o5 pages of this topic and I have something to say about it. It's looking great but I have some suggestions and some questions to make. 1) Is this the only public place where the developer and such discuss nexus? As I recall it there where some kind of site and forum, is that still alive? Is the site updated or will be continued? 2) I know that the original coder let you keep the name nexus, but why do you call it nexus 2? Will you release it as nexus 2 in the final build of this "first new version"? In my opinion, you shouldn't be calling nexus 2 just because the main coder is a different person. It should still be called Nexus Messenger and Nexus Messenger 2 should be a different version in the future. That's what I think. I think you should keep calling just Nexus Messenger or change the name and come up with a different logo or keep the logo and just change the name. I don't know, it's up to you, just making some suggestions. 3) I think you should point out in the setup files that this is a beta version and the build number should also be included in the title or somwhere. For me, this versions you keep releasing looks like they should have been only for internal development, beta testing and not for releasing. Going through the installer and after the installation is complete, it looks like this is a final build to be used on a day-to-day basis, wich it ain't and we'all know that because we are following the project on this forum but some people ain't. 4) I don't what are you going to answer to 1) but also this topic is getting quite big to discuss everything related to this project if it's ever going to be continued till a final a release. But, have you ever considered in using something like Flyspray? It's a bug tracking system for those who don't know, like BugZilla! but imo this one is better. And you can create tasks categories and use it a simple forum... just a thought. 5) I have some other suggestions but as these are related to the layout and designing and since the actual design isn't going to be the default and final one, I won't say anything just yet. I think that's it for now... Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/285122-nexus-messenger/page/45/#findComment-586054389 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eli Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 Nexus development DOES have an official website but it's up to Lee to decide if he wants to use it or not (I provided the webspace for him). As for forums, the old ones were gone. I can see about setting up new ones as soon as I can afford webhosting.

ProclaimDragon Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 I don't get it Cryptic_Night, you said that you provided webspace but then you're saying tht you need to affroad webhosting for forums? Yeah, forums would be nice, but I still think that a flyspray would be a good idea too, to keep track of bugs and ideas at least, there are so many options you can set to each task, take a look at the features here: http://flyspray.rocks.cc/features btw, free hosted scripts sucks... no hard feelings though robert27 ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/285122-nexus-messenger/page/45/#findComment-586055509 Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeC1987 Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 (edited) did nexus's original webmaster turn over all the passwords and stuff for nexus's orginal webspace and domain?P.S sry for going off topic but Nazgulled: what did you think of FeedMonster 586055979[/snapback] The original nexus team or the one man as he liked to say he did everything, left my team with Null. Well the right to call it "Nexus" still. He said he was going to send the gfx over to me, but that was months ago and he vigorously closes convoy?s on me when i try to communicate with him. I was able to slice lots of screenshots up, however, and some very nice nexus fans have been posted some very sweet skins. I am grateful for all their effort and their support. When i get time i will make Nexus sinkable and include their skins. Cryptic_Night is my 'everything related to the web' guy; I am interested in this "BugZilla" idea:whistle:e: . If you need funding from me, let me know Cryptic_Night, ive done a few comp programs for a few companies and sold them very recentl;);) . I have also been thinking about what else Nazgulled has stated. Yes i will start stating very clearly on installers that this is still an experimental messenger that may or may not reflect on the final product. Btw, at the moment all i have been working on is bugs and optimization. I spent all weekend on them and i have some good news:):) . -- Nexus is called "Nexus Messenger" in grouped XP windows instead of "prjNexus20.exe". -- Nexus now in general uses less CPU time to do things such as Contacts going offline and online did cause heavy CPU usage for a small amount of time. -- Display Pictures download themselves on the list now. (Instead of waiting for a convo to be opened) -- Cached Display pictures will be loaded up on start-up instead of ignored. -- There is no more temp freezing on lower spec pc's anymore. -- Failed DP's will now be downloaded again. -- Weird scrollbar being misaligned at start-up. -- I?ve cleared up the functions a bit to give a better performance hopefully as well. -- The URL Encoded nicknames in the Convo tabs i thought i got rid of, that seems to have come back. -- Finally a System tray icon. Special thanks to Tim Rogers and Cryptic_Night for finding these. PS: I don?t know if this will affect that silly system error module not found that a few people have been getting. Though i hope it does make that go :)ay :) .

JAbad28 Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Hey! I have been following your project for awhile now. So far I think it's great! I love the whole concept of it. The GUI is great too. I hope you will keep on working on it. This will be a successful project. Anyways, good luck and keep sending them betas!

ProclaimDragon Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 did nexus's original webmaster turn over all the passwords and stuff for nexus's orginal webspace and domain? guess not, but I didn't know that... but maybe if we get this into a bigger team, a bigger project, someone can work something out. P.S sry for going off topic but Nazgulled: what did you think of FeedMonster I'll reply on your topic :p @LeeC1987 you say you are going to include their skins but what about the default skin? is it going to be the current one or someone (who?) will make a new one? and the logo, will still be the same? another thing, don't use bugzilla!, use flyspray isntead, it's so much better :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/285122-nexus-messenger/page/45/#findComment-586057483 Share on other sites More sharing options...
black.ops Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 I'm guessing what he likes best (or maybe what we vote on) will be the default skin. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/285122-nexus-messenger/page/45/#findComment-586057805 Share on other sites More sharing options...
