[Release] VistaXP Theme addon

Kelsenellenelvian · Post by **Kelsenellenelvian** » Sat Nov 05, 2005 8:02 pm

This theme had several problems so I rebuilt it!
Should work fine now...

This theme was actually created by the guy at
http://www.studiotwentyeight.com
I just packed it into an addon with his permission.

Cool. Thanks.

Would there be a way to add the Vista icons to this theme by any chance? Like the My Computer icon etc. That would be awesome.

Thanks again Kel!

@Kel,

Can you check this theme on your server please? I've tried several times to download it, each time ending up with a 774Kb file with a hash of AE76DA39B8071CB2F26E67E8C4F0BEA6 which is coming up as corrupted in WinRAR tests.

Damn I am gonna half to rebuild it give me a day or so...

Kelsenellenelvian · Post by **Kelsenellenelvian** » Sat Nov 19, 2005 5:56 am

Fixed

Siginet · Post by **Siginet** » Sat Nov 19, 2005 11:42 am

Kel can you check your txtsetup_dirs. I think this one clashes with the Ferrari Theme. Actually... I will fix the Ferrari theme later.

So don't worry people. But for now you should not integrate VistaXP and Ferrari Themes together.

Edit: Nevermind... It has been brought to my attention that it has allready been fixed.

Mithrandir · Post by **Mithrandir** » Sat Nov 19, 2005 1:05 pm

Sigi had asked this before but I am also wondering if there is any way that you or someone can integrate the vista icons with this. That would just be too sweet. I'll do it myself if I can find out how to do it lol.

I get these errors too and I do not use nlite.

"The file vistaxp2.dll was not copied correctly"
"The file vistaxp1.dll was not copied correctly"
"The file vistaxp0.dll was not copied correctly"

s2mishappy · Post by **s2mishappy** » Thu Nov 24, 2005 11:02 am

after I finished installed it (ignored the errors and just continue)..
there are some errors, like 2 themes didn't get install. they are vista themes and InspiratSEMod themes.
and for Luna element, there are no differenet between compact with no compact. they are the same in start menu.

here the links of the screen shoot :
windows media player:
Link
Luna themes (compact):
Link
All Themes:
Link
Attributes after applying regtweaks:

the successful installed before had this error:
vista (& love it):
Link
inspiratSEmod (love it too):
Link

dgelwin · Post by **dgelwin** » Thu Nov 24, 2005 12:12 pm

@s2mishappy, just two questions
1.- when you used integrator 1.0.4 did you do any regtweaks with nlite afterwards.
2.- have you tried just using integrator and no tweaking?

--edit, also couple of the errors your getting are from sfc, saying that it is not a valid windows image, whats happening is either
a.- those files were not modifyped, or
b.- your not using sfc hack. or
c.- nlite is not applying sfc hack or
d.- all of the above

I am going to look into this latter tinight doing the uber pack now.

s2mishappy · Post by **s2mishappy** » Thu Nov 24, 2005 12:40 pm

Hi dgelwin...^^
here the answers for your questions...^^
1. yes. I did any regtweaks with nlite and all the process are the same with the new one (the error one).
2. no, but I will try it. but tbone2 didnt used nlite and he got the same error as mine too...
the error just started when the new intergrader came out.

thanks anyway...^^

Siginet · Post by **Siginet** » Thu Nov 24, 2005 1:14 pm

Also a while back I noticed that the cabed vistaxp.th_ was vistaxp.theme instead of vistaxp.the. Not sure if the latest one is like that or not... but I'm sure it was.

These errors were not caused by the integrator. I am pretty positive of that. I know in the past I noticed quite a few themepacks that were not compatable with each other. I would suggest that people redownload their themepacks because I know that some of the themepacks have recently been fixed.

I also have made a new Multi-ThemePack-addon that I will release in a couple days. It works very well. I have only compiled together the basic themepacks... I did not add the advanced themepacks. I will release an advanced themepack later.

Paul_365 · Post by **Paul_365** » Thu Nov 24, 2005 1:17 pm

Actually, its not even there at all in the version i just downloaded from the top link.

yep just redownloaded it.
vistaxp.th_ is not present in this cab, but is referenced in the ini

s2mishappy · Post by **s2mishappy** » Thu Nov 24, 2005 1:40 pm

hei... mine too...
they are :
entries_vistaxp.ini, seguibd.tt_, seguibk.tt_,VBliss.jp_,VistaXP.ms_,vistaxp0.dl_,vistaxp1.dl_,vistaxp2.dl_,vistaxp3.dl_.
no vistaxp.th_

@Kelsenellenelvian on that site http://www.studiotwentyeight.com the guy is hsowing his creeny and he using VISTAXP GLASS theme.. it looks so good..but i cant find it anywheer..

any ideas..
thx

keytotime · Post by **keytotime** » Thu Nov 24, 2005 3:16 pm

He's releasing the msstyles version later.

dgelwin · Post by **dgelwin** » Thu Nov 24, 2005 3:19 pm

vista glass is only for windowblinds 5 because msstyle format does not support alpha layers, and all attemps to mimic it use dead pixels which are a real pain in the ass to have in a visul style because sometimes you click on air

keytotime · Post by **keytotime** » Thu Nov 24, 2005 3:25 pm

That explains it.

Lumina · Post by **Lumina** » Thu Nov 24, 2005 6:50 pm

Kelsenellenelvian do you think you can please create the windows blind vista glass addon?

avneet25 · Post by **avneet25** » Thu Nov 24, 2005 7:01 pm

i think for that u will aslo need to intergrate windows blinds..

Kelsenellenelvian · Post by **Kelsenellenelvian** » Thu Nov 24, 2005 7:42 pm

Lets get this straight! First off I did not make this pack I just posted and hosted it for someone. NO this is not the windowblinds version and I will rebuild this tonight!!! Now quit yer bitching!

avneet25 · Post by **avneet25** » Thu Nov 24, 2005 8:06 pm

lol kel calm down..dont need to get hyped.. lol

dgelwin · Post by **dgelwin** » Thu Nov 24, 2005 8:55 pm

believe me i understand very well why kel is feeling the way he feels. exhausted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@lumina, in order to make an addon for windowsblinds you must have windowsblinds installed, and i would gladly make an addon for that theme, but there is no way in hell im not going to make a windowblind addon, if someone makes it, i promise you i will make your theme.

keytotime · Post by **keytotime** » Thu Nov 24, 2005 9:07 pm

Agreed

Kelsenellenelvian · Post by **Kelsenellenelvian** » Thu Nov 24, 2005 11:56 pm

OK I rebuilt it and it all should be fine now. I am really tired though.

avneet25 · Post by **avneet25** » Fri Nov 25, 2005 12:00 am

cheers

Is this the "Longhorn 4074" vis style on studiotwentyeight.com? I like to test everything out before I integrate it,

ricktendo64 · Post by **ricktendo64** » Mon Jun 12, 2006 1:45 pm

I got a litle tiny problem... not that big, just wondering wy:
When I install this theme and the "windows vista sounds" viewtopic.php?t=2172&highlight= together when i switch to this theme (VistaXP is hand's down my

FAVORITE theme) it switches the vista sounds back to the crappy default windows XP sounds, i have to go in the sounds and audio devices and manually change it back, dont get me wrong, its no biggie... but this is the only theme it happens with, anybody else got this problem

I know a lot of you don't have it but could you test the trial evaluation version just to get VistaXP to work for Windows 2003 server.

Windows 2003 Server allows themes too. It worked with the XP style theme. I just want my server to look like Vista.

<Off Topic>

Oh yeah I now got Windows 2003 Server to my server. So no more ranting about gurgemeyer for getting sick just to patch my Win2000 Server.

No I am not spamming, or advertising. I'm just telling the moderators, and TAiN why I was so mean to the moderators. sorry TAiN I was blaming you it's just no one would complete uSP5. Now with my new server the moderator War is over.

I repeat I was not trying to harm, or hurt moderators so TAiN forgive me. It's just I wanted every hotfix patched up on my Windows 2000 system. I was not trying to troll the forums, spam the forums, or hurt the forums.

Forgive me moderators for being such a Jerk. Hyipo is better now. I just want your forgiveness. Oops I should have posted this in MSFN.

Could you tell MSFN , and moderators my off-topic message please?

Will this theme come as a default theme after installing if?

Is it possible Kelsenellenelvian to build an addon which is includes the VistaXP theme and the vista sounds in one addon?
and to make it all in one you can also add vista icons...

Thanks in advance!

RaGhul · Post by **RaGhul** » Fri Dec 01, 2006 5:20 am

I second that.

Kel, if anyone is up to this, you are!!

I might also start a new thread requesting this. I think alot of us would really appreciate an "all-in-one" Vista pack:
Sounds
Icons
Theme
(and maybe) VisualToolTips

(Forget about Sidebar. IMO, it's too big, and the RSS feeds in FF work just as nice.

)
