Vize 0.4 Beta

This version has proven to be very stable. Lots of work on the patcher stuff and new features to avoid system damage.

Changes and Download

Enjoy

It would be much much better to start from scratch with this version

[Smiley89]

Uhm... not to break happiness, but I get an error when trying to patch All Files. Here it is:

Unhandled exception - Reference to an object not set on an object instance.

And here's the code:

Informations on how to recall JIT (Just-In-Time) debug instead of this window are reported at the end of the message.

************** Debug JIT **************
To activate JIT debug, it is necessary to set the jitDebugging value in section system.windows.forms of application's/computer's configuration file (machine.config).
THe application has to be compiled with debug activated too.

For Example:

<configuration>
	<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debug is activated, all unhandled exceptions will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer,
instead of being managed by this dialog window.

And sorry for eventual translation errors too

This is good I want bugs now, happiness will come later. I will look into that. Are you using Vista or Server 2008? vLite?

Cheers

[Smiley89]

I'm using a Vista Home Premium version, not vLited (yet )

[XPero]

Ok, found the bug and will be fixed for next version

[Smiley89]

Great, thank you very much!

And BTW, I found other old resources in Windows\system32\mspaint.exe
Icon groups 3, 114, 115, 116, 117 contains old icons.

I'm focused now in the inner workings of Vize. When I am happy with it, I will start adding new resources and extras

[alsiladka]

Good to see Vize going to Stability before the resources first. A stable build can always be injected with resources later!

BTW, the logo of Vize does not make much sense to me. I hope we get a new logo before the final build of 1.0 is released.

I was just about to ask if you were going to make a Vista GUI replacement tool and it's looks like I'm nearly two months behind! This is really excellent work you are doing! You should be very proud and I think we are all grateful to you for the time and effort you are putting in for what Microsoft should of done in the first place. You should take all the credit. Now with this new version will you be thinking of adding new features apart from the ones you've added already once you've got it stable enough? Maybe an auto-updater or a way of cross-referencing patched files for updates? That would make it easier then having to download version after version although I have to say that it isn't any problem at all doing so. I haven't got a spare copy of Vista to test Vize at the moment so I think I'm going to leave it until version 1.0 is ready to go. I'm getting a high-end laptop in a few days with Vista Ultimate and it will be my second home near enough. I don't want to mess up at the moment lol anyway keep us right up-to-date with any bugs you find and changes/improvements you make

Hi XPero,

I've tested Vize under Vista Sp1 16659 and got a System.NullReferenceException just after pressing the Button Patch Files.

Here is the complete log (sorry I used the German SP1 ISO, so error is in german):
