Trillian 3 is out

Post by The Kernel »

Cerulean Studios

This is a MAJOR update and includes such features as full webcam/audio/image support, a spiffy new UI, automatic Wilkpedia lookup and a ton of others. The Pro version is nice in that it adds the mentioned webcam support, and on the first night of using it, I'd have to say it's totally worth the $25 asking price, although the Basic version also looks powerful.

If you are looking for an IM client, look no farther. This new version improves Trillian beyond any of my wildest expectations and truly gives a first class IM client to the Windows platform.

Does it fucking support UNICODE?

Ok, this program is fucking sweet. It seems to have come a long way from 2 years ago, the last time I used it.

Goodbye MSN 7, hello Trill 3 Pro :)


Only one gripe, why doesn't it give me popups when a new mail message arrives like MSN did, and previous versions did? Its not in the options either.

EDIT: nvm, works now.

I havn't used Trillian for a long time since it had a bad habit of not signing me in to AIM even when the network wasn't having a problem. Maybe I'll download this one.

Only complaint I have is the length it takes to startup other than that, it's awesome and definitely looks better than the old.

Edit (12/27/04): I'm really starting to get ticked off by its loading time and blocks part of the browser while doing it. :evil:

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

Does anyone know where to find soundpacks for version 3.0? The default ones are too soft, and I can't hear them unless I turn the speakers way up.

On the same note, does anyone have the Gmail notifier for trillian?

Am I the only one that's had massive problems with the stability of the program? I've had it freeze up my computer completely several times when I've had a window open and recieve another message from another person.

I've reverted to the old version as I like the format and functionality much better and it had proven very stable and user friendly.

T3 is kicking ass for me at the moment.

Could someone tell me where the option is to not nest ICQ messages? I want separate windows for each if possible.
