Aloha Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Mara-, what you posted looks like from Vistamizer 1.2.1 by Manuel Hoefs, if I remember well. The newer version 2.2.1 has a black screen, not this one. Correct me if I am wrong.

The newer version 2.2.1 has a black screen, not this one. Correct me if I am wrong.No, I never used that pack. I think I downloaded just logonui.exe, I did not extracted it from any pack.but maybe users want a less "old" logonui?How do you mean "old"? It is almost same as Vista RTM log on screen, clone as you said.Cheers Edited April 23, 2008 by mara-
X'tyfe Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 how compatible is this with SP3 RTM? has anyone tested
damian666 Posted April 23, 2008 Author Posted April 23, 2008 yeah, ofcourse i tested man ...and the good news is, that there is maybe 1 or 2 files that dont get patched right.but that is all!!!so it wont take me long to finish it up.i will release a in between version, to make this compatible all the way with sp3@mara, i meant "old", in the way that it is everywhere...all packs have it, and i like to stand out personally...BUT, if users choose it, i will put it in.So to all users, apply your logonui that you like here, and when i get a piece or 10 of themi will post a poll to let YOU guys choose what to include.Bye guys...Damian666
kontini Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 I want to advise another little bug when I was creating a new partition:
X'tyfe Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 vista pack also patches uxtheme.dll right? want to make sure that is also okiv heard alot of people saying that they needed a new one for SP3
damian666 Posted April 25, 2008 Author Posted April 25, 2008 good that you mention it man, the uxtheme is NOT patched by the current pack...i need to find a way to patch it myself, or get a updated uxtheme patcher...which i both can not find till now...damian666
sombahd Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 (edited) Well, here's my 2 cents about boot and logon. I attached pics of how my XPsp2 goes from boot to desktop. With umpteen bazillion megahertz modern 2 core CPUs not much time is spent on the boot screens and with different graphics all over the place start up gets to look like a really bad cartoon animation so I'm using a dark (easy on the eyes) background for boot, logon and desktop. If anybody wants to try these, let me know where to upload the kernel, logonui, etc because it's all bigger than I can upload here.SoambahPS Oops I'll have to put pics of logon and desktop in other posts. Edited April 29, 2008 by sombahd
sombahd Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 (edited) Here's the logon. The desktop uses the same background as wallpaper but without the center login rectangle. For some reason I can only get these two uploaded. Maybe there's a daily upload limit? anyhore, I'll try to put up the desktop tomorrow.Soambahboot_sample.bmpLogon.bmp Edited April 29, 2008 by sombahd
Tripo Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 Hello I can´t get it to work to patch the I386 folder on the CD that is copied to hard drive.So I have another question.when it is installed is there any silent patch switch for the Vistapack.exe.So I can patch the installed files silently not need to push the patch button also so it close Vistapack when it is patched.and what is the silent switch for the installer.why this is use it when I make my unattended win2k CD so I get this silently also I can restore it if I do it this way.
damian666 Posted April 29, 2008 Author Posted April 29, 2008 yes there is man, the switch for silent install is " /S" , but without the "" ofcourse.and its so weird man, i tested it again, and see no problems what so ever...did you check if the txtsetup.sif file was present?have fun mandamian666
