When using the TURBOLAUNCHER script, you are automatically using the "long", full version of the VORAPIS V3 userscript. The TURBOLAUNCHER script is a launcher which processes and launches the actual VORAPIS V3 userscript. The advantage is for example the processing which is first done before finally loading the complete script for execution in the browser. That's why @UCyborg could execute the replaceALL command before then using this modified version of the userscript locally. So in the end, you are always using the script Vorapis.user.js, only in different variants depending on the code inside the launcher script. Another advantage is that you are always using the most recent version of the VORAPIS V3 userscript without the need to manually modify it. As long as the browser or the userscript have not been fixed, the modified TURBOLAUNCHER 2.1.0.0 userscript is currently the best option for using the VORAPIS V3 frontend in UXP browsers in terms of the already reported issues.

Tried your XP skin , very bright for me , all is white and acid blue , it distracts from the pages , it's eye fatiguing , sorry my opinion , folks love bright colours these days (I guess) , but you're a cool skin modder anyways. What I noticed - if I I simply replace en_skin and skin (without adding the actual XP skin) - the browser will load faster , and the skin is still dark , like I want it to be (I'm on a dark theme) , even though I do not like the original 360 style . So , thanks ! I'm not sure why this is happening . Less compression ?

Yep! But this toggle button does not work on playlists in New Moon 28 when using the VORAPIS V3 frontend. At least not for me. Whether it works in the original YT interface, I can't say as this modern interface is totally unusable on my Windows XP computer.

Surely it simply leads to the same MILE LONG script? turbo_launcher.gcc.url = "https://vorapis.pages.dev/product/v3/game_service/patcher/get_latest_client"; ...https://vorapis.pages.dev/product/v3/game_service/client/online_instance/1727286007541/Vorapis.user.js Ben.

Supermium with GDI versus DirectWrite is still very bright compared to 360 13.5.1030.

Here I'm giving the best 7300 GT driver NVIDIA GeForce 307.90 WHQL Those are of exceptional quality and tested by Microsoft.

It's not enough , you need to patch chrome.exe , resources.pak and chrome_elf.dll too. This is what I dug up from my memory . chrome.exe has : http://www.360.cn (2 times , at least , depending on the version) . And some other IPs (inverted , the chinese devs are getting smarter , lol) . And like you said , I don't remember everything what I patched too, I didn't make records , it was kinda on the fly, but I think you will find the rest by yourself. chrome_elf.dll has : (don't remeber , sorry, on the fly patching again, perhaps will remember later) resources.pak has (from what I remember): https://ext.chrome.360.cn https://ext.se.360.cn https://skin.chrome.360.cn http://chrome.360.cn/themes http://warn.se.360.cn (this one is 100% to leak your data). Also , plenty of Gurgle, github telemetry addresses to report "bugs". Again , I'm sure you will find the rest by yourself, with your persistence . And maybe this is why it still connects looking for a new skin and reports to that IP (even after the editing of options.zip) EDIT: Don't forget , the main file chrome.dll has quite a few of inverted IPs too. EDIT 2 : I'm talking about the repacked version . Yes ! None of those were removed by the "talented" russian hackers/packers, who were supposed to "remove telemetry" . Oh , and the chinese DNS , I wrote about earlier, is still there , checked again.

Oops, in Firefox, I forgot to disable Improve YouTube! extension, that's where it came from. @NotHereToPlayGames and others Mind trying if this works via Greasemonkey without video player crapping out with an error after 40 seconds or resetting sooner? // ==UserScript== // @name Project VORAPIS TURBOLAUNCHER // @namespace //www.github.com/VORAPIS // @version 2.1.0.0 // @description V3 is the alternative solution to a fast and responsive YouTube frontend which combines performance with beauty, bringing back Google's best web layout. // @author eov3cv@hotmail.com // @include /.*:\/\/.*\.youtube\.com\/.*/ // @include /.*:\/\/www\.googleapis\.com\/youtube\/.*/ // @include /.*:\/\/youtube\.clients6\.google\.com\/.*/ // @include /.*:\/\/content-youtube\.googleapis\.com\/.*/ // @include /.*:\/\/myactivity\.google\.com\/.*/ // @include /.*:\/\/storage\.googleapis\.com\/.*/ // @exclude /.*:\/\/.*\.youtube\.com\/embed\/.*/ // @exclude /.*:\/\/studio\.youtube\.com\/.*/ // @exclude /.*:\/\/consent\.youtube.com\/.*/ // @exclude /.*:\/\/.*\.youtube.com\/oembed.*/ // @exclude /.*:\/\/.*\.youtube.com\/api\/.*/ // @exclude /.*:\/\/.*.youtube.com\/subscribe_embed.*/ // @exclude /.*:\/\/.*\.youtube.com\/s\/.*/ // @exclude /.*:\/\/.*\.youtube\.com\/img\/.*/ // @exclude /.*:\/\/img\.youtube\.com\/.*/ // @icon https://www.google.com/s2/favicons?sz=64&domain=youtube.com // @grant none // @run-at document-start // ==/UserScript== //Project VORAPIS (V3) License & Disclaimer // //Copyright (c) 2024 VORAPIS (eov3cv@hotmail.com) // //All rights reserved. // //DISCLAIMER // //Project VORAPIS (short.

The original version is 2.0.9.9 and that part of the code just does "return r;" A workaround 'till either party either fixes the browser or the script. Probably local storage for www.youtube.com should be cleared in developer's tools under Storage tab in case the launcher was used before as the old script might still be in there. Edit: Sorry, edited million times, should be OK now.

"Kaspersky AV software uninstalls itself and mounts UltraAV in its place" "Kaspersky replaced with UltraAV in the US" https://software.informer.com/Stories/kaspersky-replaced-with-ultraav-in-the-us.html My ancient version of Kaspersky still updates OK: Update on 12Apr2025: the 3 screenshots here were deleted, but can be seen at http://web.archive.org/web/20250412184845/https://msfn.org/board/topic/184730-antimalware-firewall-and-other-security-programs-for-windows-xp-working-in-2023-and-hopefully-beyond/page/80/

I never got the remaining time displayed on the video player. How would that normally work? Usually, I only get the time already elapsed and the total time. I should mention that I am never signed in to my Google Account when playing YT videos in New Moon 28. Edit: I found a working script to retrofit the remaining time on the video player in New Moon 28: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/19120-youtube-remaining-time

@roytam1 Well I don't get it, but I opened the issue in UXP repo with the list of values that throw TypeError so it's not forgotten if they get around to tackling it sometime. @AstroSkipper I know about updateURL, it was just for testing. I put the VORAPIS script inside the old Palefill extension so the latter loaded it for YouTube, that seems to work well. But the question remains what's wrong with Greasemonkey. Oh and I don't get remaining time displayed (the one counting down) on the video player in Pale Moon.

Due to my hardware specs, I can't run 1080p videos on my Windows XP computer, neither in browsers nor in external players. My comment refers to medium qualities up to 480p. But I also use this extension or a script version of h264ify to ensure avoiding unwanted codecs. And I disabled too demanding codecs via prefs.

just did a quick search, strict-origin-when-cross-origin should be supported even in vanilla 52esr, but changing them may require patches from 67 and 68: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1530076 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1544131

What a bunch of useless w*****s! @NotHereToPlayGames You can save yourself the trouble and wasted time and download the patched VORAPIS V3 user script from my drive if you'll bother with it (I won't keep it updated though), basically the only difference compared to original linked at https://vorapis.pages.dev/product/v3/game_service/patcher/get_latest_client is that I removed referrerPolicy and mode parameters from fetch calls wherever they're set to strict-origin-when-cross-origin and cors respectively. They're supposed to be default behaviors of fetch anyway and UXP doesn't understand strict-origin-when-cross-origin. cors for mode appears to be OK. The player works, search box suggestions work and dislike count works as well! As at least some of us know, the latter comes from 3rd party Return YouTube Dislike.

You didn't follow the discussion. The search box issue only appears when using the VORAPIS V3 frontend and not the original YT interface.

you may need to update your K-Meleon: http://kmeleonbrowser.org/forum/read.php?22,151512,158054#msg-158054

Screenshots won't do it real justice due the compression, about win7, yes, no way to tweak it to display normal fonts, Vista can be tweaked though.

This is how the fonts look like on my old Siemens XP laptop with a very low screen resolution 1366x768 (it can't go more). Driver nVidia 346.26. Take a note, the website automatically switches me to the Dutch website https://www.dpd.com/nl/nl/ because I am from Holland.

It may fail to start due to the broken dependencies. Did you disable any other services?

What does your event log say? Did you read it?

Kind of makes one wonder whether the browser itself has bugs of the same "quality".

I'm on Vista without any updates and not gonna "upgrade".

I can give you a free advice , yes I'm in a good mood today and I still think we can be friends , esp. being from the same generation . Why won't you compare the original files with your modded files from the same version , of course {using any HEX propramme} and publish the results here ? As simple as that.

1 - I'm sorry, I didn't see where you said about the other files needed to be fixed too. Perhaps I missed something , but you were talking about options and chrome.dll only. 2 - I didn't document it too , but if you think we need a guide , you're welcome to create one and be it's leader . I will publish my own findings there or you can just copy them from here and mention me. I will definitely add on if I remember or find something new. Though, I think 360chrome is not very popular. BTW , do you know how to restore Aero ? I'm tired of that ugly and flat win8/10 skin.

What do you mean by "my view" , huh ? I already asked you (very politely) to stop discusssing me , my views , my ego , etc. I even thought (for a second) you will finally let go and stop . About the "russian" browser : I'm stating the facts , that I proved , BTW. People need to know the truth and what to expect from that russian version , where is says they "removed telemetry" (false advertising) . Let's say someone is going to use this browser for storing sensitive data , they need to know what they're dealing with . If I discover (again) something that russians didn't remove (on purpose or not) , I will publish it here : this is what this topic is for and it's NOT against the forum rules ! And you , go ahead and report me again , let's see what the moderators think about your strange behaviour.

Told ya , use betas . They are far more stable. I have no crashes. Oh , and I see you want to be on the safe side and not use the russian loader , in that case you can add any flag to the shortcut , as simple as that.

@NoNameNeeded , still it doesn't explain why I have everything in English (even when I'm on the repack version) . I tried it , just out of curiosity , all is in English , except the gugle.ru search (which they forced , but I quickly fixed it). BTW , I think youtube may use your IP to detect the location and set the language , no ? Perhaps it has something to do with the IP ? Also , as I wrote before , I do not have this line "accept languages" at all . Because of the flag , perhaps.
