How to customise the gui...

[thedogcow]

Just wondering how to get the gui to look like the screenie on the home page (http://xplode.voidfx.com/) cos what i get brought up looks nothing like it

Does it use a hack of the windows setup to change the visual appearance of it then use the guiinstall option to overlay XPlode???

[Wraith]

It uses a custom winntbbu.dll, and gui install mode is on.

[spyderx]

where we can find it ?

[Alanoll]

find what?

winntbbu.dll?

If that is the question, i would say search.....

or check one of the links in my signature.

[spyderx]

[SetupHotfixesToRun]
update.exe -q -n
XPlode.exe /xml:"#XPLODE#\XPlode.xml" /log:"C:\XPlode2.log"

When the t13 intall , anything was comming and the files doesn't be installed :\

here joint the unattend.txt

unattend.txt

[Alanoll]

is XPlode.exe and Xplode.xml in your svcpack/update folder within the I386 folder?

is the XML file saved as unicode? Was a LOG CREATED? This usually helps in solving most problems.

I believe that the whole line for Xplode.exe needs to be in quotes, but I'm not sure.

as for the integratation....

What you have should do it, assuming you get the program running to begin with.

[spyderx]

is XPlode.exe and Xplode.xml in your svcpack/update folder within the I386 folder?

yes it is

is the XML file saved as unicode?

yes !

Was a LOG CREATED?

no , the patchs and programs doesn't been installed :\

Wraith, could you send me youre winntbbu.dll ? I will test it

thank you Alanoll for your helping

I'going to trying the xplode 1.00 because it doesn't use the transparency for the guiinstall

[Alanoll]

umm...his winntbbu.dll makes no difference whether or not it the program runs.

as for the log, it doesn't matter if anything was installed, the log will be created even if XPlode even starts. Do you have a log file?

have you tried the quotes thing?

[spyderx]

no , any xplode.log was coming and any program was installed

i will try again now with virtual pc

[shadol]

Heya.. Is there any place to post our customized winntbbu.dll files? or even Jpeg's of them. Im jus proud of myself and would like to share.
