Not really. If you want to test it then you take the risk of it crashing your PC however... To Test: Simply install 2015.9 Test un-install re-install 4.2.5 If at anypoint you cannot boot into windows Safe Mode WILL work since Kex is a driver that is not loaded there. simply uninstall from safemode. --------- Test result for me. It works so far. No crashes or anything. I also wanted to say that I realised earlyer that Jumper released the dll's for .8 and I tested that with no adverse effects. I didnt realise there wasnt all that much to the installer. It simply does a wininit alteration. One difference between 2015.8 and .9 is that the debug window fails with Missing export KERNELEX.DLL:blogFile However, that debug window never worked for me anyway. I checked the box in an exe property to enable it but even with the window open nothing was output. so nothing really lost. Now, using Ktree I notice there are a lot of duplicates between kstubs and kexbasen. What order does Core.ini have to be for Kexbasen to take priority? Trev

Cool Testing. By The way, MSFN is working again for me. Either the site changed or it was because I installed some of jumpers recomended updates, well... the only one I was missing was MSXML 4 SP3. Trev

Haha, Thats why I Tested it. If nobody tests it then whats the point. Trev

Ok, so I got tired of waiting on a full 2015.10 installer and so installed Drugwashes latest 2015.3. As soon as the system booted into the desktop I got hit by an Illegal Operation. After dismissing it explorer would re-load and cause it again. I enabled DRWatson and my screen quickly filled with Ill-Ops! I mean Compleatly, Taskbar had a scroller on it too!

I did that once a long time ago, and did think about that last week, however when I tried it wouldnt load... How do you get it to load? Trev

Ah, ok, so the official builds of Skype have all been dissabled but this has been 'unlocked'. Pitty it didnt allow messenger ID to be used. I used Messenger 7.0.820.0 right up till the day it stopped working (sometime last year) I also tried 7.1, whiched worked with KEX but obviously wanted to upgrade to 2013 (wouldnt log in without doing so) and then broke. Now Im confined to my phone for IM Conversaions. Trev

What does 3.8 do that the latest 9x one does? Does it allow Microsoft ID usage? If not I dont see the point. Trev Edit: I just found out that Skype 3.8.118 IS the last official supported version... so What does your version bring?

OK, I finally fixed my access to this site by dissabling everything in IE6. It turns out its a scripting error that causes a crash in mprex 0177:xxxxxxxx, so dissabling active scripting solves that. (Ive noticed the segment 0177 a lot througout the topic, does it have a meaning? most of my faultlog.txt is 0177 or 0005 or 0000) Anyway I just wanted to say Im glad there is an update to KEX and I have to congratulate Jumper for being such a gentleman with regard to the threats of DeathlyGhost. I say threats because I too as others read your comments as hostile. A simple "I want to help" would have been much nicer. I guess Ill have to wait on *.10 for an installer but Im really looking forward to it. If feature requests were accepted then I guess Id like some of the new Mods to X-Wing Alliance to work, however they have been compiled in .NET4 and so dont run. Not even sure what dlls would be required, it surely wouldnt be all of them? Trev

wow did someone just say they tested ie8? that would be pretty awsome ... Damit what's wrong with the site... It wont load in IE6, crashes Firefox and now I can hardly type using ie on windows phone 8.1... anyway, on topic. what ever happened to kex 4.6? Are you not going to be adding those things to this? addmitadly, they needed far more.yesting than laylok game them but they were a good way forward. what we really need for kex is a per version (win 2k, xp etc version not kex version) dependency addition. Some decencies are required for nt app but crash 9x apps. trev

Goldeneye setup editor PerfectGold is compiled in msvc 2008 and runs under 9x with kex. the official redist from ms installs under system32 which proves to be no problem. Moving to system folder can be done but has no advantage. (ive often thought to move all 32bit dlls to the system32 folder as an experiment) the 3d window requires d3d31.dll in the editors folder set to 2k otherwise editor will crash when using 3d.
