To add 3rd party IM go to Tools->Options and “3th Party IM” (This should say “3rd Party IM”, developer typo)
Ive added Facebook Chat and MSN. One thing to be suggested though, especially for facebook chat, have an option to sort by “Who’s Online” - I personally have over 400 friends on facebook, and EasyPVN facebook chat sorts out everyone, From A-Z, offline or online, in one list, and it’s difficult to then see who is online (Gotta keep scrolling down to see who else is online in names starting with J, etc). Normally facebook web based chat would just view whos online or idle/ and does not display off line people (Example: 90 people online) instead of 400 names! Also the ability to enable and disable sign in/sign off notifications as well would be nice.
Just a suggestion to prevent fatigue of scrolling down and down… But great release guys! Loving the new IM integrations.
My Skype contacts appear off-line. I can send messages to Skype contacts, but I don’t receive any messages from them. I use Skype Portable, but updated to 4.2.0.166.
but there are few things “features” that will be awesome if you added to this piece of art and talent, like:
the ability to show contacts in different groups according to my accounts ie, grouping according to my registered accounts then sub-grouping according to the categories.
ability to show contact’s logos instead of status icons
ability to change skins
more smiles etc… on conservation window
note: please change the “send” button to “share” on the conservation window because it is tricky and make you think it is to just send what you wrote like other softwares.
this beta seems very stable and i really haven’t found many bugs besides whats listed below. sometimes the 3th party plugins disconnect but they usually come back online. oh and as to the comment below about having skins for it, that would just ■■■■ the size up and bloat the file leaving room for error. in my option, if you decide to use that then set up install as minimal and full for people who wish to exclude them.
I was unable to install it on my Vista x64 system. A 64-bit version would really be appreciated… which it took me 30 more secs to find. I swear my eyes sometimes blocks my view
