Paul 365 Posted September 13, 2003 Posted September 13, 2003 It did yes - but as that was the only difference - changing it would just make it the same file as the one miso gave us. I think i am missing the point as i dont understand what you would gain from that.Edit sorry it dosnt give me the offset, bc is more of a text based compare tool.
Yazoo Posted September 13, 2003 Posted September 13, 2003 Well I finally got the uxtheme.dl_ to install, but I have another problem. Its doesn't reboot like it should and it doesn't clear out the drivers folder. Also the visual style is still classic I have to manually select my visual style and apply it.@Paul 365: In you post, below, Does it bootup with the DarkXP visual style enabled?[shell]CustomDefaultThemeFile = "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Windows\Resources\Themes\DarkXP.theme" DefaultStartPanelOff = No DefaultThemesOff = No
Paul 365 Posted September 13, 2003 Posted September 13, 2003 yes sir it sure does.Open your .theme file with a text editor and copy and paste it here, this smacks of a path error or something like that.

Aaron Posted September 13, 2003 Posted September 13, 2003 It did yes - but as that was the only difference - changing it would just make it the same file as the one miso gave us. I think i am missing the point as i dont understand what you would gain from that.What I would gain from it is learning what hex value controls the digital signature. It appears it can be disabled completely in the file, and by learning that we can apply it to other files we want to replace too.
Paul 365 Posted September 14, 2003 Posted September 14, 2003 @yazoo all the settings in your theme use %WinDir%somethin.whatever, I think it is missing the first \ after %windir% - like%windir%\resources\Themes\Ximian\Ximian.msstylesEdit - Ive just looked at mine and its like yours so forget that.Edit again - I have looked at others and they are done correctly, its about 50% each way so i don't think it would hurt to add the offending \ in place but im not sure it will fix your problem.@ AaronXP - Sorry dude i told you i was missing the point. I still think its the cab thats signed and not the file but time wil tell

I still think its the cab thats signed and not the file but time wil tell@Paul it was the .theme file, it's got some custom icons which I didn't copy over. I copied the icon library over to $$/icons and set the paths in the .theme to reflect that. Now it works great. Thanks for the tip you were on the right track. Now to start adding other things
KonuS Posted September 18, 2003 Posted September 18, 2003 HiI have hacked uxtheme as cab ( uxtheme.dl_ ) and windowsxp setup will accept it without error . provide me with a link to upload it so any one can download itHacked UXTheme.dll | Hacked UXTheme.dll (mirror)How did you do this??Did you use loaders or sth??or only pack it with other tool then cabarc??
GreenMachine Posted September 18, 2003 Posted September 18, 2003 Does this method prevent the error message in the setuperr.txt (or whatever it is called)? I did as many others, and just copied a version posted here into the I386 directory. Works fine, yet is listed as a problem in the error log, and causes a red flaged event in the event log. Does hacking the checksum overcome this problem as well, or does it just prevent setup from crashing?
Paul 365 Posted September 19, 2003 Posted September 19, 2003 I think it just prevents setup from throwing one. As in, he is just explaining how he made the file in this topic and the wfp cab topic.
kenneth11zz Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 Is this hacked version theme DLL for Windows XP or Windows SP1 or both?-Kenneth
Aaron Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 It works for SP1, so I wouldn't suggest using this on a copy without SP1.
kenneth11zz Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 Thanks AaronXP. Just making sure since there was no reference to it.-Kenneth
