NotHereToPlayGames Posted November 20, 2023 Author Share Posted November 20, 2023 I plan to upload an all-new from-the-ground-up build 1030 within the next few weeks or so, I don't really have a timeline on it. It merges much of 2044 into 1030 and uses a Win10 skin. It's still "blue" as I intentionally use XP's "blue" desktop even in Win10 and accent color and title bars in Win10 are also "blue" for me. I also axe Win10's "immersive menu" and revert it from can't-stand-dark to love-my-light menu colorings. I've been rewriting the menus to include icons and added an avatar menu "User Center" (still in-process). No real reason, "just because". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPerceniol Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 (edited) Thank you for the explanation as this new version is choppy on youtube on my aged system with only 3GB of ram. Edited November 20, 2023 by XPerceniol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win XP had a choice of colours, there were two other themes, not only your favourite blue theme - olive green colour and the acid silver colour themes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotHereToPlayGames Posted November 21, 2023 Author Share Posted November 21, 2023 I am well aware, I wasn't born yesterday, lol. I'm actually planning six different Win10 color choices. I call them Win10 because the title bar (and min/max/close/restore icons) is (are) "flat" where XP's title bar (and min/max/close/restore icons) is (are) "rounded". My RGB / HTML color combos are below. I figure SIX is more than enough for members to grab one that suits them. No timeline, they will be done when they are done. The color combos are basically being defined "for me". Official Ungoogled Chromium does NOT use Win10's "inactive title bar" color (Win10 defaults to white [Light App Mode]), but selects its own "inactive" color based on 'masking' the "active" color. Once an "active" color is manually defined (registy entry also provided for reference), it is Official Ungoogled Chromium revealing the other colors used in my skins, I don't just pluck them out of thin air, lol. Blue 0 99 177 = #0063B1 72 143 199 = #488FC7 26 115 232 = #1A73E8 Olive Green 112 130 56 = #708238 153 166 133 = #99A685 232 113 10 = #E8710A Metallic Silver 170 169 173 = #AAA9AD 194 193 196 = #C2C1C4 128 134 139 = #80868B Iron Gray 82 89 93 = #52595D 131 136 139 = #83888B 128 134 139 = #80868B Bronze 177 86 15 = #B1560F 199 134 83 = #C78653 176 96 0 = #B06000 Brick Red 170 74 68 = #AA4A44 194 125 121 = #C27D79 217 48 37 = #D93025 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\DWM] "AccentColor"=dword:ffb16300 "AccentColorInactive"=dword:ffc78f48 Note that Win10's registry uses BGR instead of RGB and the first two letters define the "mask" (typically ff for Light App Mode and 00 for Dark App Mode). I've not yet experimented with "masking" 'in the middle' for a skin that works well in Light App Mode and Dark App Mode. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi there. I hope this new version helps, but the YT choppy behavior affects all browsers currently working in XP, unless you are willing to suffer ads in a vanilla profile. And even then it chops. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YouTube is absolutely fine for me. I have 8GB of RAM fitted, but my 32 bit XP installation can only see 3GB of course. Try installing this extension, which can get rid of a lot of the bloat which slows down YouTube. Note that this is the last usable version on this browser. 360Chrome Enhancer for YouTube Extension 2.0.115 (Last for 360Chrome).crx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True that. Enhancer for YT still does the trick in 360chrome. Thanks, @Dave-H As per its creator, "Distribution of Enhancer for YouTube™ temporarily stopped! Due to the countless changes that the YouTube developers have made, Enhancer for YouTube™ is now completely broken for Firefox (partially works for Chromium based browsers) so I had to pause its distribution. A huge amount of work is necessary to fix all the issues so don't expect a new version to be released in the upcoming days. Please do not contact me for an estimated date of release, I don't have one." https://www.mrfdev.com/enhancer-for-youtube PS: enhancer for youtube works well in mypal68 too.

Dave-H Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 @dmiranda Thanks for the information about the current status of Enhancer for YouTube. I didn't know that development had stopped, temporarily I hope. The version I attached is the last that will work on 360Chrome anyway due to manifest version changes, but I use the latest version on Windows 10 in Edge and Firefox. Strangely, despite what the developer has said, it seems to be still working fine for me with the latest Firefox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
