August 12, 200422 yr I don't have the NT Plus! pack so I'm afraid I couldn't check those. Since it's NT based it may require some other dlls. You might try running it in NT compatibility mode though.I think the sage.dll is just used for the system agent feature that let's you launch them by clicking in the corners. I don't really need that so I didn't look into it; they work without it. You can always just create a shortcut to the scr files if you want to launch them manually.The files below do not work using Resource Hacker to change the "Wildlife 32" to "name of screensaver":Dangerous CreaturesInside Your ComputerLeonardo da Vincibut the _original Resource Hacker makes works and shows up in the Screensaver listDangerous Creatures_originalInside Your Computer_originalLeonardo da Vinci_originalThat also happened for me, I have no idea why. It might be because there is a space in the file names. Anyway just remove the _original from the name and they will work fine. Make sure their dll files have the same name as each scr file. All of them do show up properly in my screensaver list now.
September 10, 200718 yr I've created an .MSI package that will install the Win NT 4.0, Plus95, and Windows98 themes on Windows XP. Also it adds the WinNT4, Win95, and Win98 sound schemes, and some Vista eye candy. Now I'd like to have a look at adding the Plus98 desktop themes. However, some screensavers don't work; like Corbis Photography and the Horror screensaver. Anybody know how to get those working on WinXP? Thanks. Edited September 17, 200718 yr by enuffsaid
January 6, 201016 yr hello! my apologies for reviving this old thread ... but recently i thought about the possibility to get some plus! 98 themes & screensaver work in xp sp3 ... has there been more definitive success in this? appreciate it.
