⚒️ Change log:
- Change the UI colour to represent Skype 7.24
- Remove the Italic style from the statuses text (Online, Away, etc..)
- Make the Contact / Chat separator fill the entire window
- Improve the call pop out (make it able to see the conversation like - how it is in 2.5)
- Fixed the translator (uses Google API without a key, so you might get rate limited pretty fast)
- Fixed a bug where you would get stuck loading forever
- Added previously removed items from the menu bar
- Combined help and debug menu into one (help)
- Changed the menu bar to resemble Skype 7 more
- Added the ability to start automatically on start-up
- Added the ability to start automatically minimised (or closed in the tray)
- Removed the dark semi-transparent background of the call header (the top area)
- Added option to not send typing indicator
- Added ringing deferring (mute ringing for a certain amount of time)
- Added ability to disable chat notification sound
- Ability to auto play video messages
- Made the retry call button green
- Add a button to make the call pop out
- Fix personal expressions / stickers / Mojis
- Change copy behaviour to "Copy Text" as default (instead of "Copy Quote")
- Fixed call button properly (you can no longer call if you're already in a call)
- Added "Call error" when the call failed instead of "No answer"
- Added support to see message reactions
- Dropped online ECS config (i.e a.config.skype.com and b.config.skype.com won't be contacted, this prevents Microsoft from breaking features)
- Change the offline status colour to be green when in minimal mode
- Changed all references to Skype for Web to Skype Classic
- Changed all sounds to the original Skype for Web ones (as they fit better)
- Fixed received message notifications (they broke once we removed the ECS config)
- Restored most old emoticons
- Restored hidden secret emoticons
- Made emoticons be stored locally
- Made the call relay be international so calls are routed to the local relay to get the best call quality and latency
- Made the badge icon always show the current status (it still shows the unread badge when appropriate)
- Fixed the duration of incoming calls being 30 seconds short of the new client (i.e the incoming call notification would stop, but the new client would still keep ringing for another 30 seconds)
- Skype Classic is now named Re(vived)Skype (all references have been changed accordingly)
- Fixed the notifications displaying electron.app.ReSkype instead of ReSkype
- Made the Google translation API use a different client to allow for a larger rate limit cap
- Removed auto language detection (this used to crash the client when you had a language that was not implemented)
- Removed the useless information on the incoming call notification

    ⚠️The installer we use (the default electron-builder one) is falsely flagged as a virus due to it being silent and unsigned, not much we can really do about it, if you don't trust it, use the portable versions

List of features might come in Skype Classic v3

List of features might come in Skype Classic v3:
- Old call animation
- Restore the old emojis fully (also remove the dependency on the cloud)
- Setup similar to the one from Skype 7
- Old custom notifications
- Split view
- Disable typing indicator option
- Start with Windows automatically (and minimised)
- Double click a contact or group to call
- Add detection of Teams (includes Skype for Business)
- Change copy behaviour to "Copy Text" as default (when doing CTRL + C) instead of "Copy Quote" (Skype 8 did this in 8.30, there is an option to re-enable it)
- Fix the translator

 

⚠️ These features might never see the light of day, they are just some ideas we have that we could implement at some point

Fake DMCA from "TrySkype"



    We recently have received a notice from Discord and Mediafire about us infringing a copyright or a trademark, this is the fake DMCA letters that the idiot (Pavlosik) that owns the Skype Classic Community (TrySkype) has threaten us with

    The point of this post is to tell you guys to please not use any of his software nor support his community as he is a scumbag doing criminal activity

    He also sent us a fake DMCA letter as well that apparently applies to TrySkype (not a copyright nor a trademark, and it can't be) and also SC Community (yes, we didn't abbreviate ourselfs), to try and sabotage us, where he was suggesting that we modify Skype Classic (assuming to change the Skype branding to TrySkype) and post a link on their Discord server

    This is complete bogus (and illegal) as he has no rights over Skype or anything, if we received a DMCA from Microsoft we would've removed Skype Classic and stuff, but he has no rights over Skype or anything like that, further more he himself is breaking the copyright (by stealing the Skype branding, and claiming the client code is his) 

    And if we somehow are forced by this illegal DMCA (it is illegal because they don't own the copyright, trademark or the software and to send a DMCA you must do that) to do something, we won't ever transfer the client to him, we will just take it down, we won't ever admit loss and transfer our hard work over to an idiot that is mad simply because he is investing all of his resources over trying to dox us instead of his client

     From now on we will use Anonfiles (it's blocked in Russia, and the scumbag is from Russia) instead of Mediafire, as they hopefully actually verify the DMCA take downs so idiots like Pavlosik won't be able to do much, but I suspect they also don't verify DMCA take downs

Skype Classic v2.5 is out right now! Download it now and enjoy the old times on Skype

 

    ⚠️Copyright notice:  Fieme is not affiliated nor owns any copyright or trademark associated with Skype Communications SRL, all rights go to their respective owners

 

⚒️ Change log:
- Fixed a bug where the emojis would take a while before becoming available
- Added button to remove profile picture (making it now possible to use this client as your only client)
- Fixed incoming calls (everything except Skype for Web to Skype Classic, won't be fixed (as it is an issue with Skype for Web), everything else works)
- Fixed incoming call freeze
- Changed the background of the photo viewer to white
- Integrated the Skype flags server (now listens on a random port)
- Fixed the ability to directly call a phone number instead of it going to your chats
- Removed the SMS pricing indicator (as it was disfunct)
- Changed "FAQ" in the about version to our Discord server link
- Changed the welcome dialog
- Removed the following languages: Deutsch, Hindi, Nederlands, Portuguese, Chinese, Swedish (this was done to make it easier to add new features that are missing)
- The build is now for 32bit
- Fixed viewing older conversations properly (up to April 2017)
- Changed the call colors (
thanks to @fucktheoic on Discord)

 

    ⚠️The installer we use (the default electron-builder one) is falsely flagged as a virus due to it being silent and unsigned, not much we can really do about it, if you don't trust it, use the portable versions

    ⚠️ anonfiles and uplovd falsly detect the x64 portable version as malicious, we have yet to find out the reason (x86 and x64 were both compiled in the same way with the same source code), if you don't trust the client, don't use it, no one is forcing you to do so
