Installation Latest version is here: http://tihiy.net/files/RP9.exe Previous version is here: http://tihiy.net/files/RP9.0.exe Revolutions Pack 9 is compatible with all system updates. I would recommend Unofficial Service Pack, 98SE2ME and IE6. Revolutions Pack 9 may require updating system files in order to use all features. Installer will point you to this page. But it is broken. Download required updates from here: http://tihiy.net/files/RP9Updates.exe Uninstallation Revolutions Pack 9 is uninstalled as you expect - from Add/Remove programs, or from installer. You can upgrade or downgrade any version without uninstalling. Installer will retain the features you have installed and won't force others. Revolutions Pack 9 is not active in Safe Mode. You can boot up in Safe Mode and uninstall it there if you have any problems.

Revolutions Pack 9 Version 9.7.0, released Nov'10. Revolutions Pack (RP) is an unique program designed to improve Windows 98/Me user experience with: * Stability and Control. It provides new Ctrl-Alt-Del dialog allowing precise control over system resources. It includes technologies which are improving system reliability by protecting system resources and providing better resource utilization and cleanup. * Appearance and Personalization. Revolutions Pack has UberSkin with it - the most powerful free skinning engine built around closed-source OS. It is able to change almost any GUI element at no cost over usability. You want Windows XP skin looking better than real Windows XP? No problem. Now, with RP9, you'll also have all-out power over icons. RP9 reintroduces 32-bit icons - with shadows, smoothed edges and rich colors. Do you care? RP9 comes with fine set of icons which you can choose from - and restyle whole system icon set in one click. Where to click? In RPConfig - new control tool for personalization. It's the storage for your wallpapers, skins and icons - your style. * Usability and Effects. New RP version has neat little features like: ClearType - Microsoft subpixel font smoothing technology which greatly improves reading on LCD screens; Big buttons for taskbar - greatly improves task switching on big screens; Menu fading - if your eyes are tired from pop-roll menus; Hotkeys - for keyboard pundits. Now you can use WIN+UP/DOWN to maximize/minimize windows. And I've just started. Over all mantras, Stability and Control is the most important for whole RP9. That's why new Revolutions Pack is completely modular - you don't install what you don't want. That's why new Revolutions Pack won't touch any system file or registry key - it plays nice. It was created and polished to play nice with your applications and your system. Note: RP9 contains the great Watercolor Emico: Ergonomic Blue theme, by Gelosea, who kindly granted permission for its redistribution (in Win 9x/ME compatible format) with the RP9 package. Thanks Gelosea, you rock!

Unfortunately NO. As i said, it fights with buggy programs and resource leaks. Not more. It can't expand heap beyond 64K.

You can ask me to do 98 part. Though it depends how much you want to port.

You should ask WildBill, I've advised him thing but he hasn't answered. Maybe he doesn't want it for legal/performance reasons... I won't implement it, unless there will be profit.

I'm pretty sure it's in nls files.

No, they're not; check pixels. As I said, i've pushed CT down my "features" list and won't be back to it soon. But later.

Fixed it. Same download link.

aha.Preview version 4 Same download link. - ClearType is disabled for whole printing process If you find major glitches within Word, please post evidences. whatever420: That's a nice thing you've done. Although i could & intend to use ctras.dll independently, i can't do that now for test sake. I can't advice using your archive. (7z? hardcoded strange paths? also, unnecessary entries)

I've uploaded a new version on the same link. However, it does not contain any noticeable changes at all; you shouldn't bother to install it. There are only slight code changes. I've decided to not develop ClearType wider now since performance of rasterizer is quite bad. Maybe later, maybe another renderer. ClearType will be available as the optional component in upcoming Revolutions Pack. Don't worry, there will be no extra calories. Also FYI, you can tweak font look a bit from Microsoft Reader options.

I've clearly stated what is this 4 years ago when i wrote this post. I can't answer you clearlier since i can't understand what you want.

New version is available! Same link. - Fixed ALL known and reported bugs.

I've found that discoloring problems manifest themselves when UberSkin is installed. Unfortunately, i can't control them until i combine them in Revolutions Pack. Yes, i've noted that IE metrics are all broken Expect all-fixed version in a several days... Also, everyone, mind writing Office Service Pack (and any other updates) version if you find Office problems.

Yeah, it seems not everything is so good here. I'll try to fix those issues (although Word 2000 works well for me; maybe you guys have many fonts installed?)

Now, that's a response. Can you post screenshots / program version?

ClearType is the Microsoft implementation of subpixel rendering technology, aiming to improve the appearance of text on certain types of computer display screens, especially LCD flat panel monitors. It turns that this copyrighted technology was available for quite some time for old systems! And now, i'm proudly presenting system extension which allows your Win98/ME systems to take advantage of it! Included into Revolutions Pack 9.

Using "free-ram" programs to solve resource problems is like drinking urine to heal cancer. Bulls***.

It's a bug in user/32 which is present in 98SE newer versions. You can install those files from ME to fix this bug if it annoys you much.

http://tihiy.ahanix.org/IpTest.zip extract dll & exe into \windows\system and run install.reg.

Either Uberskin or Eppie

You won't be able to reverse engineer it, no tool will help you since the compiler is carp. I have the old sources (for DLL only), and i know what bug is causing imagelist color bugs. But i have no intention to continue this project, and no one wants to. There is Daedalus project on WinPrj by alexanrs/others which provides 32-bit icons.

Sorry, but English SP won't ever work on DBCS systems.

KernelEx 0.3.5 (and above) archive contain this DLL. That psapi.dll can work without kernelex installed.

Mmm, it's outdated info now. KernelEx 0.3.6 (and psapi.dll from it in \windows\system) is all that you need. So it works fine? Nice to hear.

It is written on the first page, in first post, on requirements line. Being able to read is the source of 9x knowledge.
