XPero Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 XPize is a resources transformation pack for Windows. It replaces most of the non-XP icons, avis and bmps that Microsoft has always overlooked. The installer simply automates the process of replacing resources in critical system files, making your XP's look better. XPize is compatible with Windows XP, 2003 and MCE Editions. The installer also comes with an Updater, which you can use after visiting Windows Update.XPize uAE 1.0 has been optimized for unattended installations. Main features:- Build on XPize 3.0 base- Resources optimized and more files replaced- No extras- No uxtheme.dll patch- No System Restore point creation- No "i386 Patching" feature- Lite file sizeSilent switch /S Example:ECHO.ECHO Installing XPize uAE 1.0ECHO Please wait...start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\XPize\XPize.exe /SFor a package with all features, download XPize 3.0.EnjoyXPeroDownload @ DevARTDownload @ MSFNXPize_uAE_Changelog.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostrider Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 I noticed that the IE icon on the quick launch bar has no transparent background, it's white or light colour. There is also a black aura around the compter icon in system properties also around the computer icon in computer management Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glent Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 I did a manuall install and do not have those problems.EDIT: I do see the black aura around the "my computer" in computer managment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPero Posted April 9, 2005 Author Share Posted April 9, 2005 I did a manuall install and do not have those problems.EDIT: I do see the black aura around the "my computer" in computer managmentthis black border cannot be fixed. The main Computer managment icon is used also in that place. Since that main icon is 32 bit and the icon with black border has to be 8 bit, there is no way to fix it.About the IE icon, I dont se that bug. Do you have 32 bit color configuration for your monitor?I forgot to say: I removed all 8 and 16 bit image formats in icons, only 32 bit (XP) were kept.XPero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XPero Posted April 9, 2005 Author Share Posted April 9, 2005 @Ghostrider:Looking at your screenshot, it seems to me that you have 16 bit color config in your monitor, am I right? Thats the problem. I've just kept 32-bit image formats in icons to reduce installer size and RAM consumption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I will add this feature to uAE next time. So normal XPize will be just for the general public, without any "advanced" feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
