You can get mts theme loaders at http://www.mircscripts.org I perfer KTE - E-Mail: mirc_sabby@hotmail.com Network: irc.enterthegame.com Channel: #Helpdesk

Personally I think it is a bloated piece of muck and one would be better off making their own theme system which would most likely be alot smaller, easier to configure, argueably more reliable and better to package in scripts. You can make a basic theme system using the existing command framework in mIRC.

Example: SelfJoin Now you are talking in <chan> (<modes>) would be the same as... Code: on *:join:#:{ if ($nick == $me) { haltdef echo $chan Now talking in $chan ( $+ $chan(#).mode $+ ) } } - E-Mail: mirc_sabby@hotmail.com Network: irc.enterthegame.com Channel: #Helpdesk

I don't doubt that but I believe something that is custom-made performs better. I write a mIRC script for one particular network and I doubt I could get any addon to do the job any better or even as well. MTS probably has a place in the world though I do think it is over rated.
