Hello buddies,

This update ran a little later than expected because my (Tony) day job has been very hectic lately, however despite that we've had a lot of help and input from users who have spent a lot of their free time helping us iron out the kinks.

So in general I apologize for holding up the release, but I want to thank you Patrons for your continued support, it's helped more than you probably realize!

If you're an ICQ user and your issue is not addressed here, it likely will be in the next update, which I promise won't take as long.

Updates:

  • ICQ: If you created a UIN before the free registration week, it now also has free access.

  • ICQ: X-Status messages now supported along with moods

  • ICQ: Batch query for ICQ 6.5 implemented

  • ICQ: Versions < 2003 shouldn't freeze anymore on certain circumstances

  • ICQ: New cool ICQ "ads" (just an image of our logo) as banners and windows on certain versions which should help with clients that hang if the ad request fails (partially complete)

  • TOC: Formatting your username is now available

  • TOC: Setting your away message is now available

  • TOC: You can now query someone else's info (away message, how long they've been online, their privileges)

  • TOC: You can now receive (but not send, yet) rendezvous (file send, etc) requests

  • TOC: Warning users is now available

  • AIM/ICQ: Improved buddy icon support, added support for big buddy icons

Fixes:

  • AIM: Issues with directory information not loading properly should be fixed

  • ICQ: Initial fixes for profiles, more fixes coming later after further testing

  • TOC: Warning percent should be fixed when receiving a user's warn level

  • AIM/ICQ: First message to offline user not returning error now fixed

  • AIM/ICQ: Issues where directory information is set at sign on by older clients should be fixed

Developers, Developers, Developers:

  • General: Bots will no longer receive broadcast announcements from "aolsystemmsg" or "1"

Soon:

  • AOL: Mail has been postponed until a future release due to some extra work required

  • AIM: Finalizing features for AIM 1 to 5, patches for 6 - 7 (which do work)

  • AOL: More content from former channels will be restored

  • MSN: We promise, we're still working on Escargot 2.0 it's just a huge upgrade compared to the current server
