MemberWhat is Y!mLite – Y!mLite is a new chat client for yahoo, like the rest it’s a 3rd party free chat client. I started developing it just over 2 months ago, so you will find bugs I am always updating and improving it, listening to peoples’ suggestions i will only be too happy to implement peoples ideas.
Visit Y!mLite’s HomePage here: http://www.lagmaster.net/~ymlite/index.html Chat Without Exploits!
– So please email me with suggestions/Bugs the more i get the more i can make it better for everyone to use (Any Delphi developers reading can download the source code to help with thier own programs). It’s also bootproof (well from the testing we have done so far) 🙂
Thanks All and Happy Chatting!.

KeymasterThanks Craig. Could you give us a bit more info on Y!mLite, and what it does differently from Yahoo? You know… why would we want to use it?

MemberWithout having to copy and paste from the website too much, the client is still in development. I don’t want everyone to simply just use it and give up everything else
but at the moment just throwing around ideas. But for all the information as to what it can do can be found on the website located here:
http://www.lagmaster.net/~ymlite/index.htmlIT’s basically an alternative chat client, it’s not a sub for Y!Messenger as that is for IM’s alone – this client is just the “chat” side of yahoo messenger. (For now anyhow) i am working on the IM side at the moment.
As for Voice, I am 50% complete on writing a modual that interfaces with yahoo’s own OCX drivers (yacscom.dll) but
from what i am aware, nobody has yet (appart from yahoo messenger) got a working program that uses it, i could be wrong.WebCam – I simply have not had the time to look at it, but yes
it’s on my agenda. I have been working on Y!mLite all the time i had free to get it to the stage i am in this short time. So at the moment it’s just have a look and have a play. The main reason
for Developing it is simply because i was getting fed up with
people “booting” me, i say “booting” loosely as booting simply
refers to a bug in the chat client that crashes the rest of the
program if invoked. At the moment there is no known exploits (boots) for Y!mLite.Craig C.

MemberNeat program,it does seem to have the booters stumped.
I do like to hear as well as talk so how long do you think it will be before we have those options?June 20, 2002 at 5:47 am #68178Larry

KeymasterSure enough… I tried again this morning and now it’s working! Go figure.
The moral of the story is, if at first you don’t succeed, hit F5 until you do!

MemberHi folks – thank you for just reading this thread 🙂 I am at
the moment working on Voice but it’s seeming impossible, i heard that Cheeta Chat 7 (beta) has voice but since i can’t get it, i do not know. Geoffery is hardly online these days (Writer of cheeta chat) so i can’t ask directly – so if anyone has cheeta Chat and has working version that uses Yahoo Voice – please let me know thanks.The Voice Race goes on for 3rd party chat clients :).
Thanks to all who have tried the client (I had not posted in a while because i got hit by a powespike and was without a computer for nearly 2 weeks

MemberI know this has prolly nothing whateva 2 do with the chat client u have developed, BUT…..
I would really like a chat program that allows you to dial directly to your friends computer, something like phone dialer except it has all the functionality of an IM program. Just sick of slow yahoo cams and pixelated net meetings….I want SPEED!!!…lol
Anyways..like i said, prolly nothing anyone can do 4 me, but I needed 2 vent…:D

MemberMark – lol…
As i found out about 3 days ago, Y!mLite can be booted under YMSG due to a server exploit which is a yahoo problem!
when logging in select “DHTML Chat 2” and you will be safe!
