When the source will be free to anyone? Is it hosted on github? gitlab?

If you need a server for testing, don’t hesitate to pm me :wink:

For @Cuki87’s server, I don’t think it’ll be public anytime soon.

As for the original Escargot repo and Cuki’s fork of it, they’re both on GitLab, but Cuki’s is private. @valtron’s, however, is open to the public with no restriction. :stuck_out_tongue:

Hahaha I think my low-end PC can handle the very little traffic load I put my local server on while testing. :stuck_out_tongue:

Cuki87’s fork is not public and it’s ok if you don’t want rn my server :wink:

122

LOL I just found out.

Will edit. :stuck_out_tongue:

Hi guys, my fork is now public. Go try some 2009 messaging on Escargot :wink:

Well, what do ya know? I had to remove some offending code to make WLM happy and send messages almost instantly. :stuck_out_tongue:

Now that that’s done, on to perfecting the rest of MSNP18! :stuck_out_tongue:

I wonder if it will be ready before September 6.

I wish, but there’s a bit more to finalize before considering WLM 2009 ready to go:

  • Fixing up contact management so that it isn’t buggy

  • Implement scenes, dynamic display pictures, and avatar syncing

  • Implement Circles, or persistent group chats in WLM

  • Test MPoP and see if it’s functional enough

And I don’t think that list will be completed within a couple weeks. :stuck_out_tongue:

if 2009 support is added, might actually upgrade, but half of my content packs still use wlm2011 badges
so… maybe in like some months then, still have to make support for even the most obscure content

Well, I am aiming for late 2018, so there’s that. :stuck_out_tongue:

I have a suggestion: don’t limit yourself.
just don’t even think about time
time doesn’t matter
fuck it

I’ve pushed a new branch onto the Escargot repository named feature/wlm2009 where all of the WLM 2009-related support will be added into until it’s considered finished. Have a look, and maybe even download it to test the messaging features of 2009 and get a little of that nostalgic feeling back. :wink:
