Counter Strike DL > News > XFire 1.45 Released

The gaming chat program Xfire has been update to version 1.45!
Xfire allows you to chat to your buddies just like a normal IM client, but you can also use it in-game without minimizing, and it shows what games and servers your buddies are playing on.
One of the biggest changes with this version is the ability to block people, something now regarded as pretty standard amongst IM clients.

Changes:

Added the one feature that everyone keeps telling us we need... blocking. You can block individual user names, and they will no longer be able to message you, send you friend invitations, or show up under friends-of-friends. You can NOT block friends (if someone is your friend, why would you want to block them?).
Added ability to set a text status and a game status at the same time.
Added estimated time remaining for file downloads.
Added server name colors for SWAT 4 (bold and underline too!), America's Army, UT2k3, and UT2k4 in the infoview.
Added custom filters for CS:S on the servers tab. It's still a bit slow; we're working on improving this more.
Increased the maximum number of sources you can use during file downloads.
Improved paste support into the Add Custom Game Server to Favorites dialog.
Xfire In-game marks group chat messages with a double arrow to distinguish them from instant messages.
Added sensitivity setting of voice activation for voice chat (go to Tools | Options | Voice to set it).
Added a search field on the top of the infoview for the files tab.
Improved error messages when initializing Xfire In-Game fails..
Fixed several uncommon crashes.
Added Xfire digital signature to Xfire.exe and all of our .dll files for additional security.
Added support to play sounds specified in skins in .zip files.
New games supported: Madden 2006, The Bard's Tale, Half-Life Source Blue Shift, Legion Arena, NTE, Grim Fandango, 1602 A.D., and Conquer Online.

Nice ..updating.

Personally I think Xfire sucks... it just doesn't have the simplicity or the functionality of many other IMs... not bad for in-game idea...

Its getting towards being a ideal IM. When i first got xfire i thought it was rather bland, but theve added loads of stuff since then, downloads, chatrooms, voice chat. Maybe theyll add a file transfer system so you can send stuff to you friends.
