Welcome Spence

I'm trying to figure out if a progress bar if possible without atching the ntoskrnl.exe Logon and boot wont be installed using I386 feature.

Internet Explorer 7 will not be supported in XPize 4 I will when IE7 reaches final version.

larciel: I removed the file causing that problem in this new version. maniaq: Never! magicfly: Final next week probably.

I tried, really problematic one. About the screenshot, I will add one soon, still wrking in the site. About switches...man you dont have enough!!

Not yet, you all have to test this one to make the next one the definitive

http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=55280 Will be fixed for next one

Thanks It is written using NSIS

Fixed version not ready for download. Wait for final please. Maybe next week or the end of this one.

surcix: I will ask Seven Alive (the creator of the logon) your ideas WeAreOceans: Some users have problems installing the VS. I think I managed to fix it. One of that users was able to install it.

The VS included in XPize is standard Luna + Royale, so the color schemes available are Default (blue), Silver, Olive Green and Royale.

Working on that issue, please be patient

I had in mind IE6 when developing XPize. IE7 will be supported when final version of it comes.

It does since first editions.

Use rapidshare or megaupload

OK, lets wait for SevenAlive, the creator of the logon screen.

1) They are not applied 2) Start the installation and have a look in the components page. PS: Thanks guys for comments

the process XPize taks is as follows: 1) back up the original luna.msstyles 2) copies the Royale shell 3) replaces the original luna.msstyles with the new one 4) applies it after rebooting It seems that the file hasnt been copied to C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes\Luna. but I'm sure the backup (C:\Windows\XPize\backup) and the copy of the Royale shellstyle was made. I really dont have any clue on how to fix this. Has your system something special? edited variables, dleted luna with nLite, removed the theme service?

Martin L and iCEhOT: XPize replaces original Luna with the Luna + Royale VS. I cant explain why it doesnt work for you both. BTW it is not that XPize loads classic theme after reboot, it is just trying to load Royale, but the thing is that the .msstyles file was not replaced properly. I'v checked and checked and I cannot figure out a solution for that. I will still be looking at it.

Thanks! The more spread XPize has, the better

Thanks

Thanks all for comments and thanks SHD for mirror

Forget about uAE. Both full and lite versions works with nlite. All 128x128 icons have been removed. this is specially good for those having memory allocation errors or those that simply dont want to increase size of system files.

Example: xpize.exe /S /mode=i386 /source=C:\XPCD\I386 /dest=C:\Users\XPero\Desktop or (in the case that the path has spaces, you need to surround the switch with " ") xpize.exe /S /mode=i386 /source=C:\XPCD\I386 "/dest=C:\Many Users\XPero Rulez\Desktop" Note 1: The order of the switches is not relevant. Note 2: /source and /dest are only available when used with /mode=i386 Note 3: All the switches can be used in the normal way (not silent). They will change the default values.

Install XPize and look for reshacker scripts examples in C:\WINDOWS\XPize
