Umm, i'm deleting all ie6 related registry entries from ur windows installation (that are added by ryans update pack). And i dont suppose that Ryan added ie7 related updates. COrrect me if I'm wrong.

It's based on 7.0.5730.11 files. but AFAIK, only cat file and some setup related files were changed with 7.0.5730.13 release. Its on my to do list. Will check it out.

If yes, could you tell me which inf files did you write to get it works, just entries_NR_IE7en.ini and NR_IE7en.inf ?

Of course u can my friend

all inf files in the addon needs to be changed with ur language. PM me if u need more details.

MrNxDmX i assume ure addon has the same hotfixes as onepeices 1.9.2 addon?

cause his has 4 and 3 of them were in ryans pack, i cheked both guys .inf file and the same 3 hotfixes were there.

so thats why i was assuming ure addon would have had about the same hotfixes as onepecies' addon.

Tested with lastest version (1.0.7 alt). Everything Works fine!
Great job again!

sebbie · Post by **sebbie** » Tue Jan 22, 2008 6:55 am

I am fairly new to using your addon but I have been testing the lastest 1.07 version. I have put my own reg tweaks into the xie7en.inf for all users but have found they only get applied to administrator users and not to limited. Is this by design or can it be fixed ?

Nameless Mofo · Post by **Nameless Mofo** » Tue Jan 22, 2008 8:32 am

I'm pretty sure you need to add the tweaks to both the xie7en.inf file and the nr_ie7en.inf file. The nr_ie7en.inf file is actually the one that applies the tweaks at time zero, and it also sets runonce entries to replace itself with the xie7en.inf.

I have added to both and setup a couple of users as administrators and a couple as limited accounts. The tweaks get applied ok to the users setup as administrators but not to the others.

RogueSpear · Post by **RogueSpear** » Tue Jan 22, 2008 9:32 am

I have found that some, but not all, tweaks put into the .inf files will take hold. This isn't anything new with v1.0.7 however. It was the same thing for me back with the old version. And I think that it may just be a limitation with how XP setup works. I've tried some more exotic things in .inf files on my own such as deleting shortcuts from the start menu and while they work post-setup, they do not work during setup.

MrNxDmX · Post by **MrNxDmX** » Wed Jan 23, 2008 9:33 pm

bober101, onepecies' addon has KB935560 and KB945007 that my addons dont have. I'll make an addon for KB945007 in next update but i'm not sure about KB935560. I can add it to pack if users request so. But i dont want to add unofficial ie7 fixes to my addons.

SoKoOLz, thanks for report

I'll update my addon after microsoft's new release at feb 12th (See KB946202 and KB940767). They will release a new ie7 installer, and i will update both addons with that. My addons are based 7.0.5730.11 currently. I'm working on 7.0.5730.13 now.

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Fri Jan 25, 2008 12:05 am

it could have been great if the effort was going towards IE7 builder like the one made for sysinternals by odyn and n7
that includes also the localizing part in the addon building ...
but then of course the data base would have to be extra clever in rendering the correct download links for each language per a hotfix
with an announcement thread announcing a "feed" or a "key" for getting latest updates ......

until that happens...

can you make one regular addon for ie7mui
so from there, i will maybe try to make a tool to select the localizing layer wanted by the user
removing the rest so it wont be extra bloated with all the language packs in it ...

So, you want me to make an addon of "Internet Explorer 7 MUI Pack". Am I right?

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Fri Jan 25, 2008 12:44 am

i was thinking only the mui hot fix... at first

then with using edits with integrator to apply it over i386 having a pre integrated IE7 addon

thinking about it ...
maybe breaking the mui pack for each wanted language offered as addons is best ,but maybe its better having a tut for making mui in the wanted language ...

what do you think ..?

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Fri Jan 25, 2008 12:59 am

i think its maybe best to break the muiPack per the languages offered and upload them as addons

Us2002 · Post by **Us2002** » Fri Jan 25, 2008 3:41 am

But muipack can be installed by guirunonce in silent mode, is realy need to make addon for IE, if first must to make muipack addon for windows?

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Fri Jan 25, 2008 4:08 am

im not sure if you need to install mui pack for windows shell, in order for ie7 mui to work. or what is depended ...

i am only curious to know how it will work successfully triggering it a little ..

i don't mind testing...

MrNxDmX · Post by **MrNxDmX** » Sat Jan 26, 2008 8:26 pm

I installed MUI pack for IE7 on a windows xp sp2 ryanvm 221b3 integrated machine. MUI installed ok, but i can see no options to choose the language in ie7. No other mui pack installed on the machine. Also an addon seems to be too diffucult for me. there are lots of directories with lots of files containing same name. a switchless installer would do the job easily IMO.

I can make a tutorial for translating my addon. But anybody can ask me anytime for help in translating my addon

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Sat Jan 26, 2008 10:22 pm

thanks for checking this out a bit ...
at first i was looking at getting the inf file cleaned up side by side with folders.

but now i think deleting the unneeded languages by folders will do, as the inf file will probably look to install only the files available specific to the UI used in winnt.sif ..
i may be wrong, but i will need to test some ..and see .. what gives

btw, in vista all files and patches will use the same base files
and you can change the language to any one you wish at anytime
vista takes the full advantage of MUI. no more localing or local files needed like in xp

Hi MrNxDmX, will the next release version of this addon require Integrator 1.5 or still compatible with 1.4.3?

Sry for the stupid question but what's the difference between this and the onepiece addon?

RtOaNn · Post by **RtOaNn** » Sat Feb 16, 2008 10:58 am

I've a question regarding the updating of IE7 files by Automatic Update.

If I integrate either MrNxDmX's or OnePiece's IE7 addon, can Automatic Update update those IE7 files?

I was just worried that after integrating this addon, my IE7 files won't get updated later on.

So I just need an answer on this. Thanks!

I can only speak for this addon, but I see no reason there would be any difference with OnePiece's addon, yes the updates work fine. It would make absolutely no sense at all to integrate IE7 if that didn't work. And I'm sure you would have seen an awful lot of posts regarding the topic.

Yup, will search more before I post.

What I meant was that if the updating didn't work properly then there would have been a lot of posts about that. After re-reading my post I can see that what I wrote could be a little confusing.

In general, things posted for download here should operate in a normal fashion unless otherwise specified. For instance, some people will specify that an addon does or does not follow the 8.3 file naming system for compatibility with launching setup from Windows. In my experience you can assume an addon does in fact follow that naming system unless specifically stated otherwise. We try to achieve integrations that would make your source appear as close to "stock" as possible to the uninitiated. The main difference being that the source will be superior in that you will not have to perform any (or as many) updates and since you have the updated file integrated there will hopefully be less chance of some kind of error/crash or security vulnerability.

Alright, I got your point now. I thought I missed out some posts which stated that using this addon meant our IE7 can't be updated anymore.

Thanks for the clarification!

Ok, main post is updated with new links.
Added KB947518. Tested alternate addon in vmware, and worked fine. Normal one isnt tested yet, will be glad if u can test and report back here.

Edit: Addons are compatible with integrator 1.4.3.
As 1.5 is not final yet, i havent changed the addon structure yet.

Updated to 109a.
I removed plugin.ocx from obsolete files, now using reg keys to delete it, thanks HJW for info. The error report in setuperr.log should be obsolete now. (It may occur with Ryans update pack, though). And i added KB947513 related entries.
Will do a version change after release of RVM Integrator 1.5 final.

any idea if this will be addable to an XP disc with SP3 integrated? this is the only addon I really need to add when SP3 comes out.

Also, will the RVM Integrator be able to do this, or should it be done by nLite?

In theory yes, it can be added to SP3. But since SP3 is not yet released, bugs can be discovered and so... just stay tune.

pupil wrote:Also, will the RVM Integrator be able to do this, or should it be done by nLite?

I prefered RVM Integrator for it's simplicity. nLite has so many option that some of them don't really work well.

MrNxDmX · Post by **MrNxDmX** » Wed Feb 27, 2008 8:12 pm

I havent played with sp3 yet, as its not final. My addons may work with sp3 rc's or may not work, no official word from me

But i know that it has worked for sb.
Like project51, I prefer to use RVMi in integrations, but its always up to you, both does the job.

pupil · Post by **pupil** » Thu Feb 28, 2008 7:09 am

oh yeah, i always use the RVM Integrator, I only use nLite to remove components at the end, I wasn't sure if the RVMI is compatible with an XPSP3 disc, I guess it would be though.

Thanks, I'll experiment when the SP3 goes final, just thought Id ask here in case someone had been playing with the RC's.

thanks

Does this mean it currently does not work with RVM Integrator 1.5.1 Final? Or do you mean you will be just changing the version of the addon to compensate with the RVM Integrator release?

from the first page "Addons are compatible with RyanVM Update Pack from 2.1.6 to 2.2.1.
Addons are not yet compatible with RVM Integrator 1.5."

so we will be waiting till they are to use this new integrator

No problem here.

I think he just meant that he will be using the more advanced functions of the integrator now that it is final.
