Looks good - now if only RapidShare would make their site compatible with NTL, all would be good.
Any chance of alternate hosting please?

I have checked the patched files and find tow of them are old, and they are:

1- netshell.dll newer virsion came with "RVMUpdatePack2.0.5.cab" as part of the KB915428 the virsion is 5.1.2600.2858

2- mstsc.exe newer virsion came with "Kels_Uber_Addon_v7.3.CAB" the virsion is 5.2.3790.1830

I would love to do do this patch thing but i think better leave it to the master.

I tried it......I found a wierd icon superimposed over my desktop icons. I tried it three times with the same result.

I can’t grasp your meaning.

av8tor_64D · Post by **av8tor_64D** » Thu May 04, 2006 12:47 pm

well........I can see the pograms icon (Firefox for example) under or behind what looks like a open folder icon.

Works great here. Thank you.

Spiritus · Post by **Spiritus** » Mon May 08, 2006 4:05 am

Desktop icons get overlaped with folder icon, Acrobat Reader, Firefox etc.. Otherwise great work! ..... Thanks.

newsposter · Post by **newsposter** » Mon May 08, 2006 11:52 am

I really hate to point this out (great effort here!!!), but y'all do realize that anytime MS releases patches that overwrite these files, all of your efforts will be obsoleted?

At the core, this is MS' fault for inserting icons, etc into DLLs and not using resource forks and/or reference files a'la MacOS, but still............

ginger · Post by **ginger** » Tue May 09, 2006 9:08 am

It looks quite ok, but did you make effort to include all this in a dutch pack also?

maybe not. you can make it self - it's easy.

benners · Post by **benners** » Tue May 09, 2006 5:36 pm

Thanks rytukz for this addon, loving all the icons except the network icon in the system tray, just not as obvious as the original. Which File\icon do I change to use the old one?.

biatche · Post by **biatche** » Tue May 09, 2006 6:23 pm

this is a great pack, as pointed out previously, the icons are stored in dlls, so if they are replaced, good bye to icons? how about a program that could repatch the icons when needed?

One must remember that with an update the icons stored might also change. So a patcher will not do very well if resources change.

That's the problem, one must keep up with the patcher aswell (probably).

Thanks for releasing!

biatche · Post by **biatche** » Wed May 10, 2006 2:06 am

any other alternate solutions? i remember there was this vista transformation pack that had this icon rebuilder or something.

owikh84 · Post by **owikh84** » Mon May 22, 2006 1:49 am

tested working fine flawless. cool vista alike icons!

rytukz · Post by **rytukz** » Thu May 25, 2006 11:33 am

Updated:

Renamed - now name is "Vista Icon Pack Ultimate - System Patch"
Added icon patcher

Hello, I am a newbie here.. it is not so clear to me the difference between the first 2 link (approx 6MB vs 12MB).
Could anyone explain to me?

First link - it's script for patching files.
After sames windows updates, patched files (with vista icons) can be replaced (with originals files) - you need this. This script splited in:
file patcher
file icon Repairer

Other files
(rytukz_patched_files_with_VISTA_icons_MAIN_addon_1.1.cab and
rytukz_patched_files_with_VISTA_icons_WMP10_addon_1.0.cab)
- only patched files, if you want have them after windows install at one.

Fede · Post by **Fede** » Thu May 25, 2006 12:31 pm

Ok, thanks a lot, man.. so i download the 12 Mb pack to integrate in my custom Windows iso

Thanks again.

rytukz · Post by **rytukz** » Thu May 25, 2006 12:49 pm

I recomend integrate and rytukz_Vista_Icons_Pack_Ultimate_System_Patch_addon_1.0.cab - it's system files patcher and after replacement files will be useful.

Other addons only as additional.

Rudi1 · Post by **Rudi1** » Thu May 25, 2006 12:56 pm

Thanx rytukz,I always like to change only icons in xp,without change the vista style and now i can!;)

owikh84 · Post by **owikh84** » Thu May 25, 2006 10:33 pm

it works flawless in nLite 1.0 RC8. btw, is it possible to make it automatically applied during windows setup? (as the previous version but with rebuild icon cache, repair icon patchiing, etc..)

what for?
Use *removed*
this addon and after install you have that.

Yes, maybe it can add that in RunOnceEx.

rytukz · Post by **rytukz** » Fri May 26, 2006 2:35 am

Only in RunOnceEx

Thx for update

Does is this addon now automatically applied during windows setup ?

rytukz · Post by **rytukz** » Mon May 29, 2006 5:13 pm

No, it's not automatically. But now you can return to original icons after patch. This patch based only on ResHacker!
For automatically, I now only one way - replace original files in your install cd with patched files. But, after that you can restore original files in yours windows.

You can use these addon (after all addon):
http://addons.ryanvm.net/rytukz/rytukz_ ... on_1.1.cab
http://addons.ryanvm.net/rytukz/rytukz_ ... on_1.0.cab (only if you intergrated WMP10)
USE ONLY FOR YOUR RISK – YOU CAN HAVE SAME ISSUES – THOSE ADDON MAYBE HAVE OLDER FILES THAN IN YOUR CD SOURCE.

hi rytukz! i'd just like to ask if this pack has issues with XPize (http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=80327) as i noticed that when both are slipstreamed .. either 1 causes some apps (& their shortcuts) not be installed correctly ... some apps affected are boooggy's wmp11, lclock ... i can't recall the others as of this writing

...
next question is when all these (rytukz_Vista_Icons_Pack_Ultimate_System_Patch_addon_1.1.cab, rytukz_patched_files_with_VISTA_icons_MAIN_addon_1.1.cab, rytukz_patched_files_with_VISTA_icons_WMP10_addon_1.0.cab, Themes_rytukz_VistaCG_addon_v1.1.cab) are present, wouldn't there be any conflict ... because i think there is ... i figured i'd only use the 1st one

lastly, would it be possible to slipstream rytukz_Vista_Icons_Pack_Ultimate_System_Patch_addon_1.1.cab in such a way that it permanently replaces all replaceable system files ... something like /S ... where no shortcuts would be created anymore?
please know that you're work is appreciated!
thanks!

Now I recommended use only this:
http://addons.ryanvm.net/rytukz/rytukz_ ... on_1.1.cab

Other addons (rytukz_patched_files_with_VISTA_icons_MAIN_addon_1.1.cab, rytukz_patched_files_with_VISTA_icons_WMP10_addon_1.0.cab) that replace file in your cd, never will be updated. You can get same issues as file version be different.

Maybe after XPize can't use this addon - I don't test. I only tested with WMP11 - all work perfectly.

lastly, would it be possible to slipstream rytukz_Vista_Icons_Pack_Ultimate_System_Patch_addon_1.1.cab in such a way that it permanently replaces all replaceable system files ... something like /S ... where no shortcuts would be created anymore?
please know that you're work is appreciated!

Not ease make that. This patch very simple - use only ResHacher, but not ease make that automatically. Maybe I can't make. Yes, old addon (rytukz_patched_files_with_VISTA_icons_MAIN_addon_1.1.cab, rytukz_patched_files_with_VISTA_icons_WMP10_addon_1.0.cab) be as you want, but I say - in this addon can be have old version file.

Oh Yeah!

rytukz,That is what i was searching for.....Great Work Man....You Rocks....

Can I also Integrate XPIZE with this Pack....Or Does it really means after this Pack?

ricktendo64 · Post by **ricktendo64** » Wed Sep 13, 2006 12:55 pm

@mindcurd
This does not slipstream the icons into XP CD it integrates a patcher proggie that you run after you finished install

and yes you can integrate XPize and then run this patch after you reinstall, its also uninstallable

Oh No........!!!

This is Not the one i was really exited for...

As an Addon Pack this ICON pack should automatically Integrated in windowsXP CD....
This should be automatic by default , Every one knows what the hell he is doing...

Now on the Other side Xpide...
I just Download and Installed XPIDE Manually and I am not much Impressed with it.....Even it does not Change the Default "My Computer" Crapy Icon...

rytukz · Post by **rytukz** » Wed Sep 13, 2006 4:44 pm

Automatically... it's not useful. How I can make this? Need make same as program - patcher your source windows cd. It's not ease. Not for me... maybe

Yes, first version this addon (old - my experimental) replace files in your source windows cd. But it's must have same version files. But after update windows can replace these files. I say - it's not useful!
