Dont worry i dont!

I'm am the master of typing errors, and my written english isnt the best either.
Besides that i am trying to create an app to make modders life easier, so any
input is welcome, maybe i wont be able, maybe i just dont want to realize everything thats suggested, but i at least will consider any suggestion.

And i'm happy about any help i get

I download the WinntbbuED,but i found if it could only modify the winntbbu file in english version.

there is a error dialog when i open a chinese version winntbbu.dll file.

I hope the WinntbbuED could sustain the other language.

Hi! Actually it does work with other languages, at least i tested it with english and german, but never with chinese, if you can share the winntbbu.dll that gives you that error, i will look into it and try to figure out whats different and why it gives you that error.

Hi All!

so i have some good news and some bad news,
the bad ones first, i havent completed syssetup.dll support yet, and research might still take some time
the good one, did some more changes to the editor, which imho are worth a new release.

so here we go:

V0.3.1 Mainly Bug Fixes

f - filename check for .dl_ is no longer case sensitive

f - case of filename is no longer changed after expanding

f - minor error in the internal preview, the internal preview
     has an extension of 640x480 but the top left logo was the
     medium size which is used with 800x600. Now the appropiate
     Picture is used
    
f - makecab is now executed passing the path of the original
     file to be compressed, before there was no path used.
     Which let the compressed file end up somewhere on the system
     instead of the directory of the uncompressed one

f - some minor grammar errors

f - bug with the color editing, where canceling didnt restore the
     previous colors

c - Default selected Logo in the Edit Pictures Dialog is now
     small, reflecting the change in the internal preview

c - Link Destionation for the first and Description for the second
     link in the about Dialog. They are more accurate now

c - the order of the items on the extra menu. This should improve
     handling a bit

c - the way the edit pictures dialog fetches its images, this was
     neccessary to display the step pictures correctly. this was no
     longer correct since the Transparency color was added

c - minor layout corrections to the Edit Pictures Dialog

c - Moved Cabbing Menus to an own submenu on Extras

c - most of the loading messages to reflect the actual filename

c - Release mechanism and release point, hopefully eliminating the
     error 70

a - Auto Expand for syssetup.dl_ aswell
     now, if no syssetup.dll but a syssetup.dl_ is found in the
     same directory as the winntbbu.dll you will be able to let
     WinntbbuED expand it automaticly if possible

a - two new options to settings to dis/enable syssetup expandation

a - sub menu to Extras to apply makecab on syssetup.dll if present

a - right click context menu to the pictures in the edit picture
     dialog, you can save pictures from there now

a - clear option to the context menu for the pictures. you can
     now remove the logos and the step images completely
    
n - clearing works in different ways, for the logo's they get
     completely deleted from the resources, the step pictures are
     replace with original size images in the transparency color, so
     if you change that color you will have to reclear those images.
     This is necessary because of the way winntbbu.dll handeles its
     resources. This is the most compilant way possible.

     Clearing of the Animation Images is NOT supported, winntbbu.dll
     doesnt handle that, if you want to remove those, i suggest you
     replace them with 1x1 pictures matching your background image
     color.

Now Get your WinntbbuED 0.3.1 and enjoy

Oki doki here we go:

First  launced v0.3.0

then opened up a copy of winntbbu.dll (that i have copied from my unattended winxp sp2 dir, to the WinntbbuED dir)

then i made some changes (doesent matter what kind of changes, i have the same error when i just save it over whitout have done ANY changes)

then i save it to the filename winntbbux.dll (note the X inte the end)

then i made some more changes to winntbbux.dll and try to save it again (over the already existing winntbbux.dll file)

This is where the error occurs.

Tell me if you want more info on hardware, WinXP sp2 patches i have installed, Programs i use or any other info neseccary to fix this.

EDIT: Ohh and in the settings of WinntbbdED i have ticked both options!

Thanx
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

This is very weird, i have hardly tried to reproduce this error,
using different winntbbu.dll's and making no or different changes.
I just cant raise this error

would you be willing to run a special debug version, if so i will build one
which will produce a special .log file, since i currently have no idea why a lock
is kept open!

Besides that it would be nice if you could look at this Post and get unlocker to verify it's the editor itself keeping the lock open.

Any help is highly appreciated on this one
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Sure ill give it a shot no problem. just PM me when its done and ill test it for ya

[Fascix]

Btw. Will get a look att the new version now.. sweet
ill test tis puppy out

great proggi

I can open the standard Winntbbu.dll on the xp installation and make modifications to my hearts content
BUT if I download anyones dll say from the Yahoo group and go
Edit -> pictures I get the following error

Runtime error '91'
object variable or with block variable not set...


is there a solution to this problem...
Thanks

[maxXPsoft]

@darkstonexa
Hes on vacation right now and keep that dll available so maybe you can post it somewhere he can work with it or a link. The ones I d/l used to do that but they don't anymore. I haven't tried any new ones lately.

[TheMadGuy]

Hi All!

Ok, I'm back!
Time to catch up...

Added the Mirrors to the release post, thnx again to maxXPsoft & Kelsenellenelvian for providing them.

[TheMadGuy]

@All Experiencing Unknown Problems & Errors:

Here is a special Debug Version:
WinntbbuED_Debug.exe

To find and iron out the Bugs i cant reproduce, i will need your help,
so please get the Debug Version and post what happens when you run it
on those files that dont work, and if you can share those files here aswell that would be perfect.
The Debug Version provides extended error information for me, so either post the message or simply post a screenshot of it here. tia.

@those getting error 70:
you will find a WinntbbuED.log on your Systemdrives root, i need you to
post this log here, and as mentioned several times before on this topic
please get Unlocker and check which programs have a lock open on the file in the moment the error occours.

Hope we'll get further now.

Hi!

ok, i downloaded the files and checked they work just fine, so i suspect this could indeed be a problem caused by the os that WinntbbuEd is run on.
To narrow down on this problem i will require you to run the Debug Version i put online.
Please check this post here and i am sure we'll get this fixed aswell
