DeeHawk Posted September 26, 2003 Posted September 26, 2003 Does anybody know how to change the text-color in the buddylist/mainwindow?I've used ResHacker to edit the PNG's, BMP's and UIFILE's.. I've succeded in changing the look and text of the chatwindow, but I can't find a THING to just TOUCH the buddylist... :cry: help me....Peace\\DeeHawk
Doggie Posted September 27, 2003 Posted September 27, 2003 well you would need to A) have good knowledge of Visual Basic Working with API's. You would need to find the main window Handle(hWnd) by using theFindWindow API..i'll get some more info on it if i can
DeeHawk Posted September 28, 2003 Author Posted September 28, 2003 Thx... I don't know much about programming besides HTML That's pretty much the only thing...But I just don't get it... why I can't find that mainwindow, when I can find the chatwindow?

Doggie Posted October 4, 2003 Posted October 4, 2003 hey Doggie, I have fairly good knowledge of VB. How can I edit MSN ?wat exactly do u wish to edit or modify?
rolando Posted October 5, 2003 Posted October 5, 2003 wat exactly do u wish to edit or modify?Anything I am able to .Just how can I view it's source ?
Doggie Posted October 5, 2003 Posted October 5, 2003 wat exactly do u wish to edit or modify?Anything I am able to .Just how can I view it's source ? cant view it source.. really all u can do with VB is, hook it and add menus etc, edit some of the gui like Contact list, IM Windows text etc etc.. i cant really help u atm as i'm crushed in with study mate.. i see u at msn fanatic so try over there for the time.. as i said i'd help , but school work is top thing atm cheers
DeeHawk Posted October 5, 2003 Author Posted October 5, 2003 hmmm.. You CAN edit the source.. well not the entire source but the GUI like Doggie said... Use ResHack to edit msnmsgr.exe.. from there you can extract all the PNG-img's, Bitmaps UIFILE's and more.. well, try it out.. You'll be able to change almost everything... even the places were the graphics will be shown.. anyway.. I still have my problem, so if you find out how to edit ANYTHING in the buddylist please tell me...Peace
rolando Posted October 5, 2003 Posted October 5, 2003 I know all about that. I made four skins and you can check em out at http://rolando.ya2ew.com/skins.htmlBut what I wanna edit is the way MSN Messenger works. Therefore be able to restore custom tabs to 6.1

Therefore be able to restore custom tabs to 6.1 well i can tell u that after i disassembled the main msn exe, i found the Tabs were inside it.. really, i think it would be more of editing via VB with making a patch by opening the file and editing.. or hex editing if u knew what u were doing
rolando Posted October 6, 2003 Posted October 6, 2003 I've had many attempts using ResHacker. They all failed
Doggie Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 I've had many attempts using ResHacker. They all failed well try eXeScope.. same as reshack but far greater power and uses..
