These could be names that include what the pack does:

Why not WPKG instead ?

In this way your project could have something *really* different from other updaters...

eXeScope.

This project is under progress and is doing good.Haven't made any new stuff just adding drivers.

Wow.Why aren't people posting on this topic and other topics?

Why haven't people been posting on MSFN alot?

The setup design is underway with Windows Cloud is underway.I am just trying to change the look of the Original 98 Setup,I will problary will have to have a rewritten 98 Setup but i do not know how.I am not programmer or a artist.I need to create a new setup because it turns that alot of the stuff I am putting into the original 98 Setup will not install with the old 98 setup.
Unless someone can tell me a way to include lameskins without rewriting the setup.

I am in deep poop.

Hey Guys,I was wondering if yu would wait for graphical improvements to wait a few weeks to months.I am designing and right now I am trying to get Windows 98 to a very small size.I am going to be using guide from nano98.I need to find a way to include system.ini and wini.in in setup files even though it is created after a 98 installation.I will release a beta in 2 weeks after I find a way in include system.ini and win.ini.That will not have a lot of things such as webview,ie,and other things.If you want these things then tell me and I will include them.There is this program that I will include in setup that is the best compression tool.It can compress files but the decompression s really fast.It's called UPX.

Everyone thinks I am spamming the RP 7 forum.I just want lameskin in Windows Cloud.I am probulary removing some DOS stuff to make it faster.removing command.com and trying to make shell32,explorer to a small size but still have new icons and make it modern.
Also,
To Marxo:
Why has the the Windows Project Community forums server has been down for so long?The last time I was on was Monday or Tuesday.Today is Saturday.

I have noticed not alot of people have been replying on my topic .This project will only live with the MSFN community and Windows Project Community forums replying on the topic.

Someone please delete the "contents not accurate.contents deleted" posts.

Sincerly,
computerwizkid

Dude you can't just remove command.com....

WPC issue: PM'ed...

oh i read in nano98 or mindows don't what one that you can.
How did you put lameskins in Lupus????

Hmmm .....


Windows 98 without command.com ..... well, that will be interesting to see ... yes, very interesting ..... very interesting ....
Perhaps the cloud is moving over to windows cloud ? ...... (sorry for the pun ....)

I hope you understand what you're trying to do to poor command.com, shell32.dll and explorer.exe .....

Anyways, applying LameSkin onto windows is not difficult ... making LameSkin over the years is ....
Out of respect to Tihiy, I'd be keeping mum over this ...


Rgds

OK I cleaned your posts just try to use the edit button more and not post multiple times. Thank you.

Oh maybe I can't remove command.com.Blame Microsoft for that.But I havent been working on it.
Following features CONFIRMED:
Slimmer explorer with new icons
Slimmer shell32 with new icons
NO WEBVIEW(Bye!! )
New Start Menu and Backgrounds
IE6
New Shutdown,run,and search dialogs
Better System Properties(maybe like xp?)
98 Updates
and
Replacements for common 98 programs

Feature to be worked on:
Lameskins(How to include in OS?????)

computerwizkid--

I have no kernel type programming skills but I like the idea of this project and have no doubt it will have a long and strong future ... IMHO every release of a MS product since 98se has been a greater and greater threat to humanity ... back doors are opened to "internet insiders" and they become harder and harder for a user to shut down (not accidental) and the EULAs become downright insulting and demeaning ...

I'd love to see a 2k8 kiosk version, where on shutdown, the owner has the option to have physical device HD0 (C-drive) wiped clean (reformatted at the bios level and then reformatted at the dos level), and then have the operating and program file systems copied over from clean sources on a second physical device, HD1 (D-drive). shutdown would probably take two hours or so ... that's not the point. the point is that when users turn their computers back on, they will know that they are starting from a pristine C-drive. I know this sounds radical, but with all the deep hacking of personal computers coming from ***extremely well financed operations (hacking personal computers is a form of domestic terrorism, financed by Federal Reserve Marxists and big business fraudsters heaving their last gasps in search of a domestic cash flow), the time will come that either we admit that we own nothing whatsoever in, on or about the computers that we pay for (because our purported control over use of is file systems is totally illusory... absolute control being voluntarily surrendered by the EULA to higher powers at the other end of "that wire") or ... someone is going to come up with an OS that boots ***everytime the same set of files, from a set of files over which a user can have some degree of control.

linux is not quite ready yet, and most of the larger distros have been taken over by Marxists ...

sorry for the rant, but a 2k8 distro which gives the owner the ability to restore to pristine condition all operating and program files during shutdown, would be gain a reputation as a distro that return control of the computer back to the owner, or at least that diminishes control from "big-boy" stuff that gets slipped in by wire at the back end.

Um,yeah I think that is too complicated.I am not going to do that but you can work on it.

Looks Like Everyone is voting for 98 to be the best Windows OS.HMMM..kinda werid because 98 always used to crash if you didn't take care of it.If someone will tell me how to put lameskins into the OS,I will put a mixed version using rp6 core for taskbar skinning,rp7 files for more skins,and pr8 preview for srollbars and progress bar skinning.That way lameskin will be optimzed for 98 First Edition.

1) Everyone votes Win98 because WinXP users don't visit this forum.
2) Skins?
3) NO WEBVIEW! How about NO WEB at all in shell/desktop?
4) Slimmer Explorer & shell? Win95 Explorer.exe maybe? I tried it. It's fast but it only works with win95 shell32.dll, and newer programs don't work with win95 shell32.dll.
5) Biggest problem with win98 is not how it looks or how fast it is. It's hardware compatibility, especially display adapters. Why use new skins and icons and backgrounds if all you get is 16 colors in VGA mode?

Well it would be ridiculous to make a whole new icon pack ...

Or would it?

In reply to Molecule perhaps what you require might be easily and speedily achieved by using our old friend dos to compress and/or encrypt your windows folder . Then on start up, do the reverse into a ram drive via lfn utilities. This would be very difficult to circumvent especially at higher levels of encryption.
"I'd love to see a 2k8 kiosk version" clicking start/shut down holding ctrl alt shift whilst clicking the cancel button allows the last app to run and explorer to close requiring a reboot to bypass, might be of some use to you.

LFN tools don't work with RAM drives.

lcopy then doslfn

Are you sure you know what you are doing?

Some of the other topics you've made regarding help with DLLs and such seem quite silly and trivial for an advanced user. Combined with your post about removing command.com, it almost seems like you don't know how Windows 98 works. Just my opinion though, since I don't know you personally.

I'm just concerned, 'cause you have great ideas, but you can't run a project on hopes and dreams alone.

I know what I am doing.And just a question,Do you want Windows 2008 Home Edition look like XP or VISTA?

And.GUESS WHAT?
I am getting Windows 98 Se and Windows Me so OS Base might change.OS Production delayed aleast 2 Weeks because of this.I was wondering is there any way to put System Restore into Windows 98 using ME Files?

Aw,crap!I had to reinstall my Windows today and lost all my modifed windows files. But,I am restarting the project from a different perspective.What OS Base do you want:
A.98 First Edition
B.98 Second Edition
C.Windows ME

I have Windows 98(both editions)but I can get ME.


OH!And Windows Project Community Forums is finally back up.YOU HAVE TO SIGN UP AGAIN THOUGH!I got a pm from marxo.This is the new website:http://www.winprj.net/board
