A splash screen/color change


Recommended Posts

Posted

Nifty litle program. :)

1. Is there a way to make a splash screen before executing the .xml or starting a splash screen from the .xml?

Ex.: Starting Programs Installation (keep this ~5secs) - execute the rest of the .xml - Installations Finnished Successfully! (at the end, againg keeping it for ~5secs).

2. Is there a way to change the images set inside the <colours> tag?

3. If 2. is not possible - is there a way to execute multiple .xml so I can change the <colour> tag for each one? Will this slow down the integral installation proccess of Windows?

1.

You could launch a splash screen from your xml...

2. Dunno

3. You could call another instance of XPlode with a different xml from inside the first xml to have different settings. I do so for hotfixes.

Using your own program. XPlode doesn't have built in functionality for that (atleast last I saw)

/xml:%PATHTOXML%\xml2.xml

As for changing the images, you CAN change the images inside teh colour tags, but you have to do it on a per XML basis, and can't be changed from within XPlode. You just need to have your own image, and just tell it that path.

I was thinking... is there a way to delay the next cmd in xplode or freeze the current one for a few secs? That might look like a splash screen :)
