clavicle Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 @XperoThanks for the new version! But I am really sad for 3.1's disability to patch i386 folder!I think I will have to do it manually! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, use uAE 1.1 for that. I want normal XPize to be for the general public, and uAE for advanced. That's why I made that switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Hey, I love this pack thanx you for making it what I'd like to add is well I'll let the picture speak for it'self (the about bout is nice VERY nice) but if you look at the pic the monitors look out of place (the one with the theme on it really looks out of place) could something be done about it ?? Oh plus I did a Fresh install of 3.1 and the logon/logoff is in the "old Luna" style. While I'm at it when windows is shutting down you dont have a status (windoers is saving your settings/windows is shutting down ext) Could something be done about this (I like to know what windows is doing)-Romey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPero Posted April 23, 2005 Author Share Posted April 23, 2005 @Bytestar: thanks, I will check it@Romey: first of all thanks for the comments. About the monitor..I will try to replace that. About the logon, you're saying that the XPize logon didn't work for you? anyone had this issue also with 3.1?XPero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynaletik Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Perhaps he thought of the royale shutdown dialog. After I installed 3.1, I had another shutdown dialog than in 3.0 I think. But it is not the original Win XP one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
