XPize 4.0 MCE Release Candidate

Almost finished, reaching perfection :P I want you to test this version. I see it as the definitive one, but I want to ensure everything works ok for the majority of you. I dont want to be releasing a 4.1 very soon. Lets make this on perfect :)

Among the main new things you will find in this version are the unification between normal XPize and uAE into one package and the inclusion of advanced switches such as /norestore /nouxtheme /nologon etc...

******

******

Advanced Info:

******

Silent switch: /S (this switch is case sensitive)

Example:

ECHO.
ECHO Installing XPize uAE
ECHO Please wait...
start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\XPize\XPize.exe /S

You can also create an XPized Windows CD using the I386 Patching Feature, which also has silent switches support. Example:

xpize.exe /S /mode=i386 /source=C:\XPCD\I386 /dest=C:\Users\XPero\Desktop

or (in the case that the path has spaces, you need to surround the switch with " ")

xpize.exe /S /mode=i386 /source=C:\XPCD\I386 "/dest=C:\Many Users\XPero Rulez\Desktop"

Note 1: The order of the switches is not relevant.

Note 2: /source and /dest are only available when used with /mode=i386

Note 3: All the switches can be used in the normal way (not silent). They will change the default values.

Note 4: /mode switch supports this two values: i386 (i386 patching) or normal

Advanced switches:

  /norestore     <---no system restore point creation
 	 /nouxtheme     <---no uxtheme patch
 	 /nofiles       <---none of files are patched
 	 /nodll         <---no dll are patched
 	 /noexe         <---no exe are patched
 	 /nocpl         <---no cpl are patched
 	 /noocx         <---no ocx are patched

Installed the Lite version and the boot screen works. Look if in the windows directory there is a file called boot.bmp and are there the attributes 

/noguiboot /bootlogo

in your boot.ini behind your the boot entry.

BTW: Everything works fine for me. Don't wanna miss it. :D

Now, both version are supported by nLite? And what 128 icons are missing in the lite version? Don't know them :no:

Forget about uAE. Both full and lite versions works with nlite. All 128x128 icons have been removed. this is specially good for those having memory allocation errors or those that simply dont want to increase size of system files.
