Dukeicon Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 (edited) After more than a year since 0.94, aMSN 0.95 is finally released! [25th December] New features include webcam support, tabbed chat windows, improved skin and plugin support, new file transfer protocol, many new plugins (like Ink and Nudge support), an improved bug report system, as well as LOTS of bugfixes! We hope it was worth all this wait! :)We also have a new website, which not only looks nicer than the previous one, but is also a lot easier to use and find what you need! And, best of all, aMSN is still ad-free! :) aMSN is an free open source MSN Messenger clone, featuring: ? Display pictures ? Custom emoticons ? Multi-language support (around 40 languages currently supported) ? Sign in to more than one account at once ? File transfers ? Group support ? Normal, and animated emoticons with sounds ? Chat logs ? Event alarms ? Webcam support (Detachable Webcams!!!) ? History in color ? Ability to autoclose the filetransfer window when it is finished ? New plugins log window (Alt-P) ? Plugins compatible with supported languages ? Faster loading skin window ? Skins in chatwindow ? Resizable chatwindow bottom ? When you add a new user, you can define in which group you want to add them ? When a contact change status, the top of the chat window changes color ( green for away, grey for offline, etc.) ? New panel GUI to alert when there's a new aMSN version ? Possibility to download the new release directly by aMSN ? Automatically update language files and plugins from the web ? New gui for deleting users (also possible to block on deletion) ? Possible to add notes for each user (XML) ? Support for MSN Mobile service ? Tabbed windows so you can group conversations using tabs ? Status is displayed inside a frame, so it won't dissapear when you scroll ? Display picture in notification alert (like MSN 7) ? Statistics for history (logging) ? Now possible to choose any state for your login status (before it was only possible to login invisible or online) ? Timestamping But that's not all! More features can be added to aMSN with plugins, or for the adventurous, completely change the look of aMSN with different skins!

migo Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Found the Ink support, doesn't seem to work for sending to MSN, but otherwise everything works fine. Has really bad load times, but otherwise works well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Suraci Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 I might use it if it didn't rely in skins for a bunch of stuff (scrollbars etc). :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Echilon Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 It used to add features, but aMSN doesn't do anything Messenger plus doesn't do as far as I can see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
