wixfigura Posted April 2, 2006 Share Posted April 2, 2006 @ lawrencahey - good work! but wouldnt it be better to leave wpi as it is, and let ktool check which kind of installation it is? Im not good in autoit, but it isnt very hard, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawrenca Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 I'll take a look at it but I won't be doing much more with kTool as we should be gaining the progress bar functionality in the new WPI 4.4rc2 (if it is still called that). Better performance and nicer GUI.Will lobby hard to add some of the extras I put in modified kTool to limit the number of external programs (Sleep, Killing Processes, closing down annoying readme windows after install, reboot flags, etc.). Having these in the config template makes it easier for me as I don't have to place paths in for these and carry those external tools.Will also try to get Greyed Condition (in my case, indicates program already installed) to parse the silent arguments and launch the setup.exe for repair, modify, uninstall. A pretty easy mod that I added in my copy of WPI. Would also like to see a more convenient configuration manager to make startup and maintenance of programs easier adding a filter by category so it is easier to manage UIDs, deps, and excls, and most importantly, install order. I use a tool I wrote myself to configure WPI, unfortunately, it is geared toward my modified version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelsenellenelvian Posted April 5, 2006 Author Share Posted April 5, 2006 It is being looked into lawrenca definatly some if not all your mods will be implemented in WPI 5.0... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wixfigura Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Here is a little modified ktool. the rightsidebar is called ktoolside.jpg size 172x413 and background ktoolback.jpg 1280x1024. you can replace it by your own pics. place all in your tools folder. You can also exit the installation by pushing the esc button. To fit for your own language the autoit ktool.au3 source is included. just search for headline= "Installiere Programme" and Progress= "Fortschritt" and compile the ktool.au3 with autoit to get ktool.exe.Looks like this:Download it: Ktool modified Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wixfigura Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 @Yurek3 Take a jpg in your desired resolution ( maybe if your Monitors res. while installation is 800x600 reformat your pic to 800x600 ), rename it to ktoolback.jpg and copy it to WPI\Tools folder - thats it !! ktool cannot stretch or resize a small pic to full window size Maybe in a later version of Autoit. If you do not want a background just remove ktoolback.jpg and make shure there isnt a copy of it in your %temp% folder.If you want to resize a little just edit line9 in ktool.au3:SplashImageOn("1", $destination, 1280, 1024, -1, -1, 3)you see - resolution is 1280x1024 - you can change it anyway you like it first -1 means x-position middle 2nd -1 y pos middle, 3 means always on top, without headerbar.If you modify it like this:SplashImageOn("Yurek3 WPI", $destination, 200, 150, 20, 400, 0) then you have a Pic with 200x150 dimension, 20pts x-pos from left and 400 pts y-pos away from top. Title is: "Yurek3 WPI". Compile it with Autoit - thats all !You see - quite easy.If you want to know more, here you can get Autoit. It has a very good helpfile inside!AutoIt 3 DownloadHere you get other language Help FilesOther Language HelpfilesIts pretty interesting to work with Autoit. You can do many things better or more than with .cmd files. And is not as heavy as it looks like ( I began 1 month before to work with it).Bye - good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wixfigura Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 (edited) Its not the right place in that forum for things like that - but what does it matter!!!Nice that you like my theme. I created it completly by myself - from Hellacopters Album Cover "By the grace of god". So I called it graceXP. Overall it looks like this:If you want that the theme appears before first logon you need to run the regfiles at T12And you need a hacked uxtheme.dll in your XPSo here you can download it:GraceXP Theme + regTweaksBye Edited April 11, 2006 by wixfigura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
