Forums General Discussion When's the new mIRC coming out.

:P

I know I know, I just had to use that topic. I know I know, we don't know.

I've read a bunch of posts about speculation of when it will be released.
I'm deciding to ask what we think will make the cut into the new mIRC.
(I say it has to be something -BIG- otherwise it would have been out before!)

Will it be blue?
Will it have anything to do with cows?
What do you think?

hopefully it will be soon... all this waiting is really killing me!

There will be just a few minor bug fixes and perhaps a new command or identifier, or two. I don't expect more than 5 items in the new versions.txt entry.

He'll streamline everything and make it look like WinXP, causing mass suicides across the nation.

I'd like to think that the interface is going to be changed to what degree, I don't know, but being that its been awhile since the last release it will be something some what major.

We all hope it will be a major update. Something like this:

1. Rewritten mIRC under MS VC++.NET
2. Added 20 code comments.
3. Fixed "Year 3000" bug.
4. Made changes to simplify rewriting mIRC under MSVS 2003.

As long as it's relatively small in size, I'm happy.

In my opinion (as 56K modem user) you could double the size of the mIRC.exe and it would still be small enough.

If it's only five things, then why would it take this long to be released?

Obviously Khaled's entire life doesn't revoilve around mirc like some people we know.. hint*hint*

But isn't mIRC Khaled's job?

im sure he works on mirc quite a lot.....

You may be able to say that but you gotta keep in mind that Khaled probably has a life too. I mean I highly doubt that he's been coding non-stop since the last version. I am anxiously awaiting the new version as much as the next person and all I can say is it will probably be released when Khaled is ready to release it...

who knows, maybe july 4th >:D

Hard drive size and RAM is extremely limited though.

If Khaled has a life, i want mine back.

lol owned

<funny>
Hehehe but it was your choice to give yours up...nobody twisted your arm to make you join the rest of us on IRC....LOL

(just a witty reply no harm intended)

Unlike hundreds of thousands of other people, I actually don't think about the new mIRC version being released. I'm happy with 6.03...it does its job anyway - it's been able to do everything I've wanted it to do so far anyhoo.

True, it will be interesting to see what will be in the new version, but all this talking about it is going to make the process seem a WHOLE lot slower, and make you feel as though you're waiting an eternity in anticipation :P It's like staring at a clock waiting for school/work to finish - it'll feel a lot longer when you concentrate on it (I'm sure we've ALL stared at the clock and thought..."has that stopped? Come on...COME ON YOU DAMN THING, TICK DAMMIT, TICK TOCK" - or maybe I'm just a psychotic maniac )

I'd just forget about it, go chat, have some fun, maybe even *gasp* do something in real life *shudder*

Happy chattin'

Regards,

i think the next mirc isnt being released...its been too long
