For those who have been having problems with getting a decent channel listing on secondary connection with WinMx Christmas has arrived early , courtesy of KM 8)

http://www.kingmacro.net/?section=get&file=olepro32.dll

This patch needs to be placed in your ProgramFiles/Winmx/ folder
and WinMx restarted for it to take effect. Any details on its operation KM ?

However it works its a job well done KM , I,ll talk our friend over at Vladds and tell him to stfu :D

IMPORTANT UPDATE New address for the patch is this one

http://www.kingmacro.net/kingmacro/get/olepro32.dll

Save it directly into here C:\Program Files\Winmx\

Cool, KM, what does it do? Does it get the listing from your webchat or something?

it just uses a simple method of taking over the data recieves by winmx (same as MCMA does - but with a better method for loading itself in the first place) but rather than monitor chat connections, just monitors for a secondary connection and watches the data comming in.... if it see's an erronious room listing then it basicly screws up that listing up (makes it not a problem by trimming it down to something winmx will accept)

the code for the patch itself isn't anything too complex in fact if you ignore all the bits for getting the patch loaded then its only about 50 lines of code

quicksilver: i assume you mean the person who pissed me off... it wasn't anyone from vladds, it was a certain room who's topic is modified by the patch if you're using it...

one possible bug which i cant confirm, sometimes winmx takes a while to connect with or without the patch, but it seems that it might do this more with the patch than without.....

Yes it seems KM has been updating his forum so I suspect a few web links are not as they should be , hopefully it wasnt deliberate :?
Nice to see you again Jimmys :D

the forum upgrade is fairly minor compared to the other upgrades (or downgrades depending on your opinion... i am starting to think perhaps linx is a downgrade because i cant get the thing working! lol)

it was just a problem with the configuration on the temparary web server (my workstation) - should be sorted now :-)
