john0452 Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Looks good Alanoll, this is really the definative guide to UA Windows. B) I really like the Beginning, Intermediate & Advanced categories.The Reference section seems to be a lot more comprehensive as well.Keep up the good work.

MAVERICKS CHOICE Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Well done Alanoll, a very nicely setout guide & Im sure it will be helpful to most of us as sound reference material. I think it would be a suitable starting point to any would be spammer here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eirogge Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 home -> changelog - 404 - fixedhome -> sitemap - 404 - fixed - soonbeginning users -> step 1 -> manual way - why is there a picture of the servicepack extracting when you copy over files from a cd? fixedbeginning users -> step 2 -> manual way - why did you shrink those two messagebox at the very end and linked it? guess for saving space but it looks awfull fixedintermediate users -> methods of install -> runonceex - there's just a C in the headline of the page - fixedintermediate users -> device drivers -> drivers from cd :1) you mentioned only that the drivers dont have to be part of the $OEM$ structure but maybe it is necessary to mention that the advantage of the drivers from cd is gone if you put it into $OEM$ as this would copy the drivers to hdd again2) the download for SETUP.EX_ does not work fixed3) in the explanation "expand C:\XPCD\SETUP.EX_ C:\XPCD\SETUPORG.EXE" doesnt it has to be C:\XPCD\I386\SETUP.EX_ or C:\XPCD\AMD64\SETUP.EX_ or whatever system strcuture you're installing on? fixed4) the string to search for in txtsetup.sif is not "setup.exe = 100,,,,,,,2,0,0,,1,2" but "setup.exe = 100,,,,,,,2,0,0,,1,2" - different number of spaces. if i search for the pattern from the guide it wont find anything. maybe thats not so good for beginning intermediate users edit: ah, d**n, the forum removes useless whitespaces. so just check it in your txtsetup.sif.intermediate users -> applications -> office -> advanced - be sure to keep the list of hotfixes updated as it will be outdated soon. maybe you should just describe the usage of msi patch once and then refer to the office update thread in the forum as you did with windows hotfixes. but thats just my opinion.intermediate users -> applications -> install systems (inno, installshield, nsis, etc.) - keep the style of linking pictures from the rest of the pages for those pages, too. just cosmetic, no errors or something.advanced users -> advanced methods of install -> introduction - the pictures are squeezed terribly. make the thumbnails better (bilinear or bicubic resizing) and keep the aspect ratio.reference -> downloads - there is no whitespace between the links for wmp9 and wmp10 - fixedall in all a very good and needed update. keep up the good work.one thing that i dont feel so comfortable with is the window style on the screenshot. i guess its your favorite theme but for the guide i guess it would be better if the screenshots were taken with windows classic look. this saves some space on the pictures and compresses them better as there arent so many color fadings. again this is cosmetic and perhaps just my feeling.did aaron have no time anymore to maintain the site or why did he give the job away? just for interest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
durex Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Holy crap Alanoll.... nice work! That must have taken a good chunk of time to do.Great job man... cant wait to check it all out and learn so new stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bâshrat the Sneaky Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Superb work, Alanoll! B) But the small page about my DriverPacks isn't exactly up-to-date DriverPack WLAN is already outthere...DriverPack Graphics should be (coming verysoon)andDriverPack Chipset (coming soon)The worm attack thingie is also fixed Just out of curiosity: if you estimate it, how long have you been working on this update in hours?

Alanoll Posted February 3, 2005 Author Share Posted February 3, 2005 But the small page about my DriverPacks isn't exactly up-to-date Just out of curiosity: if you estimate it, how long have you been working on this update in hours?Thanks for letting me know! That page was written back when you're website was down. And you never got me an iconAs for hours....what section?Estimate - over 150 I'm sure. I kinda lost trackI've also been testing RyanVM's new update packs, as well as the new XPlode. I went digging through WINNTBBU (as you may have notcied) and take over 150 screenshots throughout. Just think, the page still isn't fully operational.The site without the additional downloads is 10MBs in size, which is just HTML and images. Later,I'll look up the statistics of the exact number of each.@eiroggeSitemap wasn't ever finished It will be when I put up the PDF later thoughI coudn't find what you're talking about with the setup.exe. That's the exact line from my txtsetup.sif. I'll look again laterThe links were bad because I tested on a Windows system, and the server is linux, so case sensitivity bit me in the butt.advanced users -> advanced methods of install -> introduction - the pictures are squeezed terribly. make the thumbnails better (bilinear or bicubic resizing) and keep the aspect ratio.Getting fixed as we speak.one thing that i dont feel so comfortable with is the window style on the screenshot. i guess its your favorite theme but for the guide i guess it would be better if the screenshots were taken with windows classic look. this saves some space on the pictures and compresses them better as there arent so many color fadings. again this is cosmetic and perhaps just my feeling.You may notice there is a transition at the moment from my style to classic. To be honest, I really didn't think of it.@Astalavistaummm....Next update will be in the coming week or so, to add the Application Switches and Registry Tweaks.I'll be rewriting the introduction page a little bit more later (I typed it last night at about midnight) with more styling and stuff.
