Andrew Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Today I started to use Miranda IM. I was introduced to it a year ago, but did not use it as it seemed to have some "bugs" (stuff I didn't understand). But today I tweaked it to my liking, installing skins, plugins, and a lot of other stuff to add functionality. Literally everything is changeable/editable. The only drawback is installing the plugins etc which can take time. But once done and tweaked, well you don't have to again. Also from what I can tell is that you can change the directory of Miranda to anywhere, which leads me to believe you can put it on a USB stick and use it anywhere. It also uses little memory. Curently with a bunch of plugins installed it uses 5.5mb ram, while msn beta 7 uses 7 mb ram.You can customize Miranda to be just like msn or icq in case you like those IM programs look/feel.It is also available in many languages.I was using MSN messenger, but it had ads and other junk that is no fun.Miranda IM combines most IM clients into one (or you can use it for just one IM like ICQ or msn).The attached image shows my current Miranda configuration compared to the size that I used msn messenger at. As you can tell Miranda takes up 1/6 the space that messenger does.Currently Miranda has probably 200 more options than messenger (which has like 20?)Highly recommend it. I am currently using the latest night build, which is supposed to be stable and better than the latest public release. It's odd to see opensource stuff like this be much better than corporate IM, when they spend money to build them, and when they do update them, they are no different (msn beta 7). Had a professor from York University today talk about blogs and how the media is changing dramastically. Was interesting.Pros:Customizable in every way. Easy to install (easy as unzipping a file).Cons:Can be a hassle to customize, but since customization is not required...10/10http://miranda-im.org/What IM do you use? why? any recommendations?[attachment archived by Gobalopper] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slaphapy Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 sounds kool, but not sure if i want another IM progy... already using msn and AIM, but only because that's what most people i know use so... ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted March 15, 2005 Author Share Posted March 15, 2005 But this program combines the use of the two programs you mentioned. Thus only requiring the Miranda program to be open to use contacts from both the programs you mentioned.Should try it. You won't have to worry about having to start two programs when your computer starts. :)This isn't a program where you have to sign up an account to use (like say hotmail or icq #), it just needs the account info that you already have with another IM program (email, icq #, etc) to run.

slaphapy Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 well that sounds good and all, but also i dont have msn signed in most of the time, mostly so people cant message me lol... so having them both in one would not really be in my specific interests, although i'm sure it would be to the liking of most people.

Gobalopper Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Trillian works fine for me, I've been using it for years and looks a lot nicer in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted March 15, 2005 Author Share Posted March 15, 2005 Hope you weren't basing looks on my image. :P It can look any way you want it to.This thread shows how some people have it customized.http://forums.miranda-im.org/showthread.php?t=188Although trillian does look good :).well that sounds good and all, but also i dont have msn signed in most of the time, mostly so people cant message me lol... so having them both in one would not really be in my specific interests, although i'm sure it would be to the liking of most people.You don't have to sign in to all the accounts at once. You can choose whether you are online, busy, away, offline, etc for each individual account (icq, msn etc). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slaphapy Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 kinda cool, maybe i'll give it a whirl... since its a SNOW DAY TODAY! (woohoo)EDIT: i'm having some problem adding my contacts list... ??? it keeps saying "the message protocol had an error in initializing the search. please try again" or something like that. wtf.

Andrew Posted March 15, 2005 Author Share Posted March 15, 2005 Sorry, I'm new to it and don't know too much about specifics. Which contact list are you trying to add? aim or icq?Check the website or forum. Or do what gob said and try trillian.Miranda seems like an advanced IM program. Not for people who want a simple quick fix IM program. ;)We can all agree that these free programs are better than messenger or icq, you know the big corporate programs that tell you what you want it to be.EDIT -List of IM programs.http://www.jabber.org/software/clients.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slaphapy Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 trillian seems to be working for me, and it was really fast to set up (though i wouldnt mind the customizable options on Miranda) But i even tried reinstalling, but for some reason it wouldnt find my contacts that i added (plus it would have taken forever to add all of them...)

Andrew Posted March 15, 2005 Author Share Posted March 15, 2005 Hmm, Miranda should work. Maybe you didn't enter the right information.Oh well, if you ever get lots of spare time you can always play with Miranda to see if it works.Hopefully they will come out with a latest version in a month or two. As they havnt released a new version for a year (except betas). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slaphapy Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 well i know i did enter the right info, i mean i entered it exactly the same as i did on Trillian, and it found everything ok. Plus i did it twice, now i screw up a lot, but twice in a row?maybe i have some setting on my accounts that it couldnt work through or something... i dont know.

erjin999 Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 I have already been using Miranda for a while, but only on my USB drive when I am on other peoples computers (which is a lot, as my work involves computers...lots and lots of em) it can run straight from the drive with no install/config.When I first got it I looked at it and thought "ermm...yeah...what now ?". Within 2 mins I had sussed it and I was online (I wasnt too shure I was though!). It wasnt as easy as msgr to use, but it can log me into many IM protocols and without install, and it works well, so why not ?I kept msgr and msn msgr at home so I can do voice and video and file transfer (it might be able to do those too ??).All in all a nice little proggy for me, but I hardly use it to its potential.

Andrew Posted March 18, 2005 Author Share Posted March 18, 2005 Hnmm. Only thing left to do is change my "chat" windows, and I have not succeeded yet.

Andrew Posted May 6, 2005 Author Share Posted May 6, 2005 http://www.aus1.info/news.phpHas one of the latest builds of Miranda and installs it with several plugins. Probably recommended for people who don't want to do much work to get Miranda working.I am mentioning it because I just tried it for the second time and this time I got tweakui transparency to work!!This is important to me as I have been trying since I got Miranda to get it to work but it never has. I think tweakui transparency has not been working for me because of my former profile or something.Now my contact list looks nicer.Would post an image, but it doesn't seem to want to take a screenshot with Miranda in it.EDIT - Finally found the problem with tweakui contact transparency. It requires 32 bit color and does not seem to support 16 bit. I swore I tried 32 bit before with no luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Posted January 7, 2006 Author Share Posted January 7, 2006 Long time no posty. Miranda has come quite a ways since June. There are talks for a new release sometime soon.Attached is pretty close to my current configuration (someone made a plugin that you could remove any personal info from the profile so you could share your config with anyone).It is the latest nightly, with some plugins that I feel work best with msn.

veK Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 miranda is very cool... I use it for some time now because there are still people out there who communicate via msn/icq instead of getting on irc (instant messenger sucks, get on irc folks).my miranda looks very simple, I removed everything I don't need and now currently it looks like this:http://www.planetvek.de/pics/tech/desktop.jpg <-- in the lower right corner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted February 19, 2006 Author Share Posted February 19, 2006 Miranda has come some more way. With the introduction of google chat within gmail, you can chat with users who are signed into their gmail account using Miranda (and other clients found here). This works the same as if they were on google talk client or any other jabber protocol. There is a mod of the protocol that can also check your gmail inbox for new emails.I really like the chat feature in gmail. It's simple and easy to use.My current miranda config which is different than before (click for enlargement):Only 34 plugins running and one message window, taking up 13mb of ram (that's not much!) :)Miranda IM - VersionInformation plugin by Hrk, modified by EblisReport generated at: 19:52:59 on 19 February 2006CPU: Intel® Pentium® 4 CPU 1.70GHz [x86 Family 15 Model 1 Stepping 2]Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP [version: 5.1.2600 Service Pack 2]Installed RAM: 512 MBytesFree disk space on Miranda partition: 39857 MBytesMiranda path: C:MirandaMiranda IM version: 0.4.3 alpha build #47 UnicodeBuild time: 21:41:44 on 10 February 2006Profile size: 2,757.74 KBytesProfile creation date: 11 Feb 2006 at 01:46:43Nightly: YesUnicode core: YesActive Plugins (34):AutoReplacer.dll v.0.0.1.1 [06 Mar 2004] - AutoReplacerAutoReplacerImport.dll v.0.0.0.2 [30 Apr 2003] - AutoReplacerImportBehindEdge.dll v.0.0.0.2 [21 Nov 2004] - Behind The Edgechat.dll v.0.3.2.1 [11 Feb 2006] - Chat (Unicode)clist_modern.dll v.0.4.1.24 [11 Feb 2006] - Modern Contact List (UNICODE)crashrpt.dll v.0.0.0.2 [20 Dec 2005] - Crash Reportdbeditorpp.dll v.3.1.3.2 [11 Feb 2006] - Database Editor++dbx_3x.dll v.0.5.1.0 [11 Feb 2006] - Miranda database driverfontservice.dll v.0.0.2.6 [19 Feb 2006] - FontServicehistorypp.dll v.1.5.0.90 [18 Feb 2006] - History++ (2in1)IcoLib.dll v.0.0.0.2 [15 Apr 2005] - Icons library managerieview.dll v.1.0.5.2 [20 Jan 2006] - IEViewJGmail.dll v.0.4.3.0 [19 Feb 2006] - Jabber Protocol (GMail) (Unicode)loadavatars.dll v.0.0.1.14 [03 Feb 2006] - Avatar service - BETAmsn.dll v.0.4.3.0 [11 Feb 2006] - MSN Protocol (Unicode)mtextcontrol.dll v.0.0.1.10 [09 Dec 2005] - Miranda Text Control [build #160]mToolTip.dll v.0.0.1.5 [07 Feb 2006] - mToolTipmydetails.dll v.0.0.0.36 [14 Feb 2006] - My Detailsncn.dll v.0.0.2.9 [28 Sep 2005] - NickChangeNotifynewawaysys.dll v.0.3.6.7 [12 Feb 2006] - New Away System [ Build #2257 ]NewStatusNotify.dll v.1.1.2.2 [14 Jul 2005] - NewStatusNotifyopenFolder.dll v.1.0.4.0 [20 Oct 2004] - Open Miranda Folderpng2dib.dll v.0.1.3.0 [11 Feb 2006] - PNG images processorPopUp.dll v.2.0.3.97 [09 Dec 2005] - PopUp Interoperability [RC2]rss.dll v.0.0.3.9 [07 Feb 2006] - RSSNewsseenplugin.dll v.5.0.2.5 [11 Feb 2006] - Last seen plugin modsmcn.dll v.0.0.2.10 [08 Nov 2005] - StatusMessageChangeNotifysmileyaddw.dll v.0.1.11.10 [13 Feb 2006] - SmileyAdd Unicodetabsrmm.dll v.0.9.9.99 [11 Feb 2006] - tabSRMsgW (unicode)TypingNotify.dll v.0.0.1.6 [06 Jul 2004] - Typing Notifyupdater.dll v.0.4.0.8 [19 Feb 2006] - Updateruptime.dll v.0.1.1.0 [02 Mar 2003] - Shows Windows uptimeVersionInfo.dll v.1.0.1.17 [03 Feb 2006] - Version Informationwebview.dll v.0.1.2.0 [18 Feb 2006] - Webview ProtocolI'll probably create a version of mine so that others can unzip it and sign into their msn account and have it do the same thing as mine (with the customizations).EDIT:Miranda also now supports Sametime IM protocol (Lotus Notes).

Andrew Posted March 21, 2006 Author Share Posted March 21, 2006 Updated my Miranda config.Seems my last one was downloaded ~70 times. Think cause I posted it at miranda forum a couple times to help people.Latest version of it can be found at [link deleted]This is set up mostly for MSN users, although gmail chat plugin is included (which alerts you to new gmail email as well as chatting with people signed into gmail) as well as some regular plugins I use.4.66mb zipped, 11.2 mb unzipped. It's using the latest RC version nightly build that was released a couple days ago. I'm thinking in a month a new final release will be released. It will be a huge improvement over the last major release which was a year ago.I actually used Miranda on my portable usb stick today at university, as I don't like to use msn messenger on those computer as I don't think it's as safe (some people actually leave their email address in it) :P.

Andrew Posted April 4, 2006 Author Share Posted April 4, 2006 Updated it again :)For msn users, go to option->network->msn and input email and password (like you normally would to sign into msn mesenger) and it should work.http://www.mytempdir.com/568900I changed some stuff, so if you downloaded it within 15 minutes of me originally posting this post, you can redownload it if you want. I just removed some redundant stuff and extra popup and skin themes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Posted April 4, 2006 Author Share Posted April 4, 2006 Hmm. I'm not sure. You're saying that you got msn to work?I wouldnt think the .dat transfer would work too good, as you would have diff plugins/themes etc than my version. You can import history from your other .dat if that is what you want (otherwise, why would you want your .dat with my config?).Well you could always try copying and pasting your .dat into my version and see if that works (just delete or move my current profile.dat somewhere else).

Dunenewt Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 I'm using the nConverse thing which seems to work quite well. Need to work out webcam support, and how to change my fonts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
