Okay guys I have talked to Hasi001 and he told me I could update WPI.

Here is the changes I have made so far=

3.5  Change log

(Reason for the build # change is because of the fairly major changes)

* Made font installation customizable and smoother.
* Added in a resolution changer (Set at 1280x1024x32) But you can denote your own setting through wpi.cmd.
* Added auto-reboot after installation through wpi.cmd.
* Added in a clean up command which will delete all shortcuts placed on the desktop after installation through WPI.cmd.
* Added version number displayed through the help button.
* Bypassed the Win XP/SP2 Installer Warning that prompts on each program being installed if WPI is used after Windows XP/SP2 is fully installed.
* Added the following languages.

     Swedish
     Russian
     Spanish
     Romanian
     Czech
     Turkish
     Japanese
     Traditional Chinese
     Slovenian

* Multiple grammatical, punctuation & spelling corrections and changes. Mainly in the options wizard.
* Alphabetized Lang.js and Language entries in optionswizardtemplete.
* Added autorun.inf.
* Updated the Icon for cmdow (32 bit alpha blended).
* Made the delete button more noticable in the config wizard.
* Cleaned up some of the coding.
* Made an "official" WPI icon.


Does this look good to you guys??

I do need help on a couple of things though.

I need to figure out how to make the vidchanger dependant on the theme so when WPI starts the vidchanger will work for whatever theme is selected as default.

As it sits now if 1280x1024x32 does not work for you just change it in WPI.cmd to what resolution you need.

Also I left my config.js file in with over 100 entries to some of the most popular apps and progs so alot of the work may be done for you. Just pick and choose then delete the ones you want.

Mirrors would be nice.

When Hasi001 comes around I will ask him to update the main site.

PLEASE POST ANY COMMENTS.


For updating from older versions just copy your config.js and useroptions.js into the new version.

WARNING!!! The wpi.cmd HAS A ENTRY IN IT THAT WILL DELETE ALL SHORCUTS FROM YOUR DESKTOP!

If you do not want this just delete this line=

REM Cleaning up the desktop.
del /s/q "%userprofile%\desktop\*.lnk"

I am also trying to figure out how to make a popup box that has some text and then buttons for yes or no for my personal usage.

Yes will continue with WPI and no Will cancel WPI.

God that would be sweet but how do i run it in wpi.cmd?


If you would just build me a blank one with two buttons one to continue and one to quit. Leave the text and title part open for me to fill just like put a crapload of aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa's there so I know where to enter my text.


Or could you build one that if continue is clicked it starts wpi.cmd and if Quit is picked it just closes?

Okay now I think I got it let me try to make one first.


How is this???



$MsgBoxAnswer = MsgBox(36,"Windows Post Istall Wizard","At times during the install proccess some of the programs will use the cursor and answer the boxes automatically. So it is suggested that you start WPI and then leave you PC alone untill the process is complete. Do you wish to continue?")
Select
Case $MsgBoxAnswer = 6;Yes
Run("WPI.CMD");Program To Run If 6 = True
Case $MsgBoxAnswer = 7;No

EndSelect

Box is still too wide and I have'nt a clue how to rename the buttons.

It deletes all of the SHORTCUTS on the desktop in an effort to make the process cleaner if you dont like this just delete the line in WPI .cmd.




REM Cleaning up the desktop.
del /s/q "%systemdrive%\documents and settings\%username%\desktop\*.lnk"

The part that deletes shortcuts is only in wpi.cmd

Hta would not clean the desktop.

As a standard rule most applications are installed daisy-chain style ie... One goes and then after it is done 2 goes and after that 3 goes.

Almost all programs will automatically install like this.

The couple I have encountered don't matter they will finish in the bacground.

WPI is smart enough to run progs one at a time not all at once. (God what a mess that would be)! :blink: :realmad: :blink:

yes i know this, but few minutes ago i was testing on virtual pc and 1. prog was insatlled correctly (sound drivers), second was AGP driver. instaltion of it (AGP) started instaling ATI drivers and then ATI driver wizard said that no AGP found. probably because AGP driver wasn't installed totaly. BDW first aplication is set to be AGP driver, second sound driver,... .... and ATI software and drivers were set to install 5. !!?? :}
