I also forgot to mention: the InstantMessage function in the Avatar.cs file curently generates a new UUID every time you send an IM. THis causes new IM windows to open in the recipient's client every time you IM the same person.
The fix is to generate and use the same UUID in your calling function. Since I'm tracking separate conversations in separate iterations of my ChatWindow form, I create a UUID when I load the form (or get the UUID from the incoming IM if the other person IM's me).
the fix in Avatar.cs is to change lines 269 and 279-280:
public void InstantMessage(LLUUID target, string
message, LLUUID id)
Packet packet = PacketBuilder.InstantMessage(Client.Protocol, target, Client.Network.AgentID, 0,
RegionID, Position, 0, 0, id, Now, Name, message, "");
it's probably also a good idea to check id for null and generate a new UUID. My thought on that was to make id an optional parameter and return the id back from the function. this way, you could call the function with no ID the first time, then use that ID in future calls.

So I'm not the only person working on a chat program?I started on a chat program today. It's actually at the point where I can IM anybody in-world, and IM's from in-world show up in new windows. I don't have a friends list or anything like that, though. I also don't have the avatar "dressed". The avatar just sits there with the default shape and no texture.What I did discover is that since all the network traffic is being handled on a separate thread, I can't create windows in that thread. So what I did is create a queue in my main window. An IM received event just pushes the IM on to the top of the queue. Then a timer in my main window pulls the IM's off.I'll probably handle the friends list via a config file, rather than trying to track your SL calling cards.
