Microsoft Agent 1.5 is the first public release of [[Microsoft Agent]]. It is an upgrade to to beta versions of Microsoft Agent, and dropped compatibility for characters created in the beta version. It replaced using multiple files for a character with a single ACS file that would be used for characters. It also simplified the API for developers and changed all mentions of "AgentX" to "MSAgent" or "AgentSvr". Microsoft Agent 1.5 also installed itself in the Program Files/Program Files (x86) directory. It's character folder was also named "Characters" instead of "CHARS", which is the name of the character folder in [[Microsoft Agent 2.0]]. | Microsoft Agent 1.5 is the first public release of [[Microsoft Agent]].
