officesheep9 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 (edited) Can someone confirm that ad-hack works? The only version of Ad-hack I can find is 5.3 ...the guy's site appears to be down so I can't get 5.4 right now. Does anyone have a mirror by chance?

officesheep9 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 ^^ Thanks for the link, 5.3 didn't really work ...it chopped off some of the bud list and it looks like crap. I'll give 5.4 a shot, but I am already kinda missing Gaim :) ... I just wish Gaim had a "listening to" plugin like AIM does. oh well :pinch: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KGHtheII Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Smiley Showers still broken for me :/ I don't think I like the new Info dialog box though. I feel like the Updates pane takes up too much space, i think i liked it better on the bottom. Or maybe there can be some kind of Hover box that can be implemented only when changes have been made that goes away after a certain period of time after checking info. Other than that, I like this release. Keep up the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mancode20 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Did they fix the bug or annoying feature where AIM Radio constantly plays when you open the program? Like say it's minimized, then you bring it to the forefront and it plays. Is there an option I have to turn off to make it only play when I manually turn it on? That auto crap is annoying.

It's there for the user to take advantage of.

KGHtheII Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 So I finally got my roommate to switch over from an old AIM 5.2 DeadAIM he was using to the new AIM 6. For some reason, whenever he tries to set an Alias for someone on his buddy list, it just doesn't work. The alias will remain in the Edit Buddy dialog box, but doesn't update on the buddy list. Is anyone else having this issue? Also, a feature that he really liked in DeadAIM was that if he was away, and someone IMed him, it did not send his away message to the person. Is there any way to implement this feature in AIM 6, or could it possibly be added in the near future? I finally got him to change, but he's frustrated with it already :) Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bangbang023 Veteran Posted March 22, 2007 Veteran Share Posted March 22, 2007 For the first problem, make him go to the "View" menu in the buddy list and check on "Friendly Names". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
