RyanVM Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 Do you use LZX compression when you use makecab?EDIT: I checked and you didn't, nevermind. If you're interested, you can knock about 5k off the size of SFC_OS.dll and about 15k off the size of UXTHEME.dll by enabling it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeenThereB4 Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 @RaveRodYour dll produces an error in setuperr.log to the effect that it's unsigned. Is this expected? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prathapml Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 If you're interested, you can knock about 5k off the size of SFC_OS.dll and about 15k off the size of UXTHEME.dll by enabling LZX compression when you use makecab.Yes, I'm interested - how would I do that (enabling LZX) ?@BeenThereB4-Yes, that is an expected error entry.

RyanVM Posted August 8, 2004 Share Posted August 8, 2004 makecab /D CompressionType=LZX file.xyzI'm pretty sure that's what MS uses since the LZX compressed files were the same size as the original MS ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vorte[x] Posted August 8, 2004 Share Posted August 8, 2004 @cybertron: I found these edits by using debuggers, process watchers, hex editors etc. They take some time to find but if you know what you're looking for it's easy. I'd suggest searching for some cracking sites (eg. sites on creating No-CD patches are a great start).No you didn't, you simply compared the original Uxtheme.dll to a patched Uxtheme.dll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only patched the SP2RC2 SFC_OS.DLL based on your files. The rest is my work.SP1 is the only file that I used someone elses file to hack. These SP2 hacks are entirely my work... Not a comparison of someone elses file.I'm sorry if this sounds a little abusive but I don't like my work being put down to me copying someone elses (especially when you have no proof).

Saw that coming ... I would be a bit peeved myself. A post like that adds nothing but insults ... In any event, RaveRod has been doing these for us for a while now, and I, for one, appreciate it.
