Well if I edit logo.sys from RPlite5 or 6 and change something
on pic than bmp file is 921,654 bytes...
but in original option is logo.sys with 308,278 bytes...
I use PhotoFiltre and every is correct but when booting PC
there is only black screen (nothing)...
I would like to change progress bar possition,its location on screen
and some diferent logo...
Is that possible!? shifty.gif

Aah... Everything is possible, of course.
Original logo.sys is 256-color, that's why it is that size.
You should convert your to 256-color one.

Source codes for WLL are available on previous pages.
Progress bar coordinates are highlited.
Just change and recompile.

Tihiy, I just wanted to say that you've done a great job with Revolutions Pack....

I mean, after all, you really need time and knowledge for something like that.

But... Why are the File Types icons old? I would be very happy do new ones... If you want.... So u can forget about that copyright-shi*....

That's problem with RPLite6, where i had to update many icons with registry method and i haven't updated all of them.

Please post some screenshots of that old icons or new ones you would like to update. thumbup.gif

Tihiy I wanted to ask you how did you put the boot logo in that format (RPLite5)? When I opened it it was bigger than 320x400... Is there a tweak or you did something with it?

BTW a DLL File icon for tihiy (Vista style but XP color biggrin.gif) Click to view attachment

Aaa... Really there is new application which loads and animates that logo.sys instead of io.sys.
QUOTE

Really not bad. I really want these icons.
I'll choose them if they're looking better than Vista ones in 32x32.

You've got PM for that.

Sorry about that last one I'm new to forum so I don't know all the rules sad.gif and you can almost read it because Serbian and Russain are very similar languages biggrin.gif...

So do you want to convert them to 32x32 and send them to you?

And on what page is WLL source code?

No, i want them in all formats. (ico like File_30.ico: 16,32,48, maybe 256 sizes and 4,8,32 bit colors.)
Here's direct link to WLL: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?act=At...st&id=13763

Yeah ok I'll do them that way and attach them soon... There is something you might be interested in....

I have a few questions: is it safe to install latest version of rev pack on a "non test machine" ? and can someone post here the winme files i need to install this thing as i don't have a winme cd and i dont wanna "get" the whole cd just for some files. This thing looks neat, you really have reborn win98 to year 2006. Thanks

Add/Remove programs applet replacement for Windows released!
for win98 and up, RPLite5+ or Windows XP+ is recommended.

http://tihiy.ahanix.org/programs.zip

* Fixed various bugs
* Added some features
* No longer libraries needed

To RPLite Localizers: You have some time (week?) to localize it if you want it on your language. If you don't, then fine... whistling.gif
NOTE: This version is compressed with newest UPX version. To translate it, you must unpack it first. If you can't shifty.gif , ask me.

To anyone else:This is a release version. Try to find a lot of major bugs.

P.S. It seems that LameSkin is not very friendy with this proggy. It will be fixed in RPLite6+.

If you've translated other RPLite tools without problems, then there will be no problems with ARP too.

Here is a QUICK QUICK BUGFIX for this LameSkin issue:
[It also contains other RPLite6+ Lameskin improvements, but i won't recommend it without testing]
Acheron
Here's my bug report for the new RPLite 6 Software Panel.

Most stuff is graphical, but I discovered I could not use all functionallity under Windows XP.



1. After removing TweakUI the display is not updated.
2. Empty space displayed. When resizing windows this space won't go away



1. When Maximized on Windows 98SE the Software Panel gets drawn behind the taskbar.



1. On Windows XP no white space is displayed next to the Size dialog (Green)
2. An horizontal scrollbar shows up anytime. None of the Software Titles is too large, so this shouldn't happen.
3. Inconsistence use of checkboxes. First checkbox enables something (show). Second one disables something (hide). I would like it to be consistant.
4. Type to Search.. is displayed nearly unvisible. Please display it a bit darker.
5. Bug under Windows XP. When I want to do install a new program, or do a system rollback, this dialog shows up. It doesn't work after reboot either


Software Panel won't start when Unlocker assistant is not running.

Except for these minor issues it is a great program. I would like also to request a feature. When pressing F5 I would like to have the installed software list rebuild.

UPDATE



Program crashes when entering text in inputbox on a clean Windows 98SE machine. Probably to do with the auto-input text option. I would like it to have also a browse... button here. Typing in complete paths is difficult for most people.

Add/Remove applet has been silently updated
http://tihiy.ahanix.org/programs.zip

It contains minor graphical updates and fixes for updated LameSkin.
Plus it is in English, Russian, Dutch, French and Italian. [THX AGAIN ALL TRANSLATORS]
This version will be included into RPLite6+ if no more languages sent to me.

I am working on polish translation for "Programs Panel". It should be done in a few days.

I tried to install RP Lite6 on my Win98SE and had same problem again:
error while extracting file "docprop.dll" (when installing RP5 the file was "dimm.dll").
So i couldn't finish RP instalation.

Another thing:
the "!" sign next to Graphic Card. In RP5 setup (english only) this was ok.
I have GeForce MX440.

Tihiy, anybody - do you have some ideas/solutions?

Make sure:
1) You're pointing to dir which contains win_*.cab. Check if CD is readable.
2) You have working extrac32.exe.

Can I still send in bugreports?



You might add a Extension filter for it to allow it only run .exe

Thank you for replacing the window pop-ups with wizard dialogs smile.gif

Yes, of course.
All RPLite versions can be reinstalled on top of older (upgrading) and even newer(downgrading).

RPLite 6+ will be released today, i hope.

You can change your programs language when installing RPLite (in dropdown combo).
You can also change your system language after installing RPLite, however, it will also affect fonts and codepages you using.

And if you don't want Add/Remove programs in your language, why'd you translated it?

I have not used Revolutions Pack before, but if it's stable I probably include it as an option in my Windows 98SE integrator project. So that's the main reason I translate it and try to catch bugs.

Am I free to distribute Revolutions Pack Lite as an option with Windows 98SE Tihiy?

P.S. You might consider adding a donation button on your site. You can use some support I think for your great work!

I'm currently not using RPLite, i like my desktop as it is now. However i'll probably try next version on my laptop (don't want to screw up my main PC right now newwink.gif )

Well, i have my own secret Windows 98SE integrator project and when RPLite will be finalized, it will eventually arise in it.
You're free to include RPLite [with credit ofcoz], anyway my project will contain much more features. biggrin.gif

Common, please cooperate. I don't like doing stuff twice. I already have working fully updated MDAC 2.8 SP1 and Jet 4.0 SP8 optional components to replace the Windows 98SE one's.

I want to buid a custom distro with fully updated components, but all optional, so you can also have a kind of Windows 98 Lite if you want.

I know; that's the problem.
I want to build modern all-updated Win98 with amost none optional components at all, but everything shrinked to mininum. Making optional components is a long and dirty work so i don't mind doing it.
I'm concentrated with new drivers, new/replaced tools, updated graphics and super-new-ultra-cool installer.

I'm still in the progress to convert all new stuff to the Advanced inf Installation Structure. It shouldn't be too hard to convert it later on to a new installation format. It's a lot of work to do testing and such, but since I already have finished the work on some components succesfully adding new components should go faster now.

Okay; if you'll need help with making RPLite as optional component, ask me.
Although i have doubts if it possible to make it fully optional/easy uninstallable one.
