[Release] Gant 2 v.2.0 gant2ocean

[axis]

Ok, have the last word, I don't care. Get upset at me, the guy all the way across the world who got upset about forced registration. I am not the only one who is upset, I just stood up and said something about it.

[fukachu]

man you keep missing the point of everything i said. its just rediculous to even try to talk in a calm way with some1 like you. if i was a promoter of force registering then i wouldnt put my modules on deviantart. unfortunately i cant put guir on there because its not my program. and i have already told you i ahd not intended for forced registering but you just go aorund calling it bullsh?t etc and saying we are low people for insisting on it. i had already told you the site is far from ready for release and it was not our intention to do that. we are webmasters.. i know incredibly little about webpage making and i couldnt find a way to turn it off. i ahve said this probably 3 times not and you just seem to ignore this bit all together. its that kind of mentality that im sick of. just stood up ey? so you probably see mike moore as your hero then. he stood up against bush with a bunch of half truths and didnt bother to look at the other side of the story. this is EXACTLY what you have done. you didnt even take a second to consider the other side of things and you just flamed the site b4 you knew the facts. keep that mentality up and im sure you'll have plenty of friends..

I'm having a hard time understanding what the big deal w/ registering is, i mean it takes less than a minute. It's not like he's asking for your 1st born or anything.

hi there =) great work

I had some trouble with the module back on windows server 2003 which i eventually could solve with the help @ shacal foruns.

Only the shutdown icon didn't seem to work ok.

Now i'm @ sp2 and did clean install, got guir and put the pack togheter but the shutdown icon doesn't seam to change :(

I even tried to replace it manually with microangelo, editing shell32.dll

It does look stupid all the cool icons and the big flashy shutdown button :(

Any workaround sugestions? HELLLP :p

P.S. Sorry about bad english

[fukachu]

are you wanting to remove the icon from shutdown or what? im not understanding what you wish. a screenshot attached here would say a thousand words in any language :)

[azharsdin]

is this SP2 compatible? :p

[thankins]

From what I have read from Fizcal, it will work on a SP2 system. Please let me know if it does!

[azharsdin]

means i have to test it? :(

[eversor]

It should work on SP2. GUI Replacer should do the work replacing all the icons/bmp/... whatsoever in the dlls. If the entry isn't there it doesn't replace anything. At least this is how I understand it (didn't bother to try GUIR yet though; as i'm happy with yz toolbar and windows default settings)

[evo0o]

I think it does work on SP2. At the most just backup info and try :p

[fukachu]

look i cant promise you it works on SP2.

there have been mixed results however i havent been able to see why it didnt work for some people. but initial tests by some people for me said it was working great. version 2 of guir is in beta testing atm so if this doesnt work now then when version 2 comes out it will and there will be new options with guir 2

cheers

this is what i mean :) the shutdown icon doesn't seem to change even if i rebuild the cache 300 times :p

By the way it runs smooth on sp2, at least here :D

[fukachu]

hmm maybe i havent got that in the script for icons that should be changed. can any1 tell me where that icon comes from exactly? so i can check that i got it right. i havent played around with this for a while in terms of icon locations. also you said you tried changing it in shell32.dll with no luck so that makes me think its somewhere else. i have a feeling this might have been a problem i was having with one file and i had to remove it for some reason.. but i cant be sure on that.

[WiSh]

i'm quite new in the subject. I opened shell32.dll in microangelo and tried to set your icon, which is there, with the name of the default shutdown icons which are also there and they are 2. shell32.028 (i think that this one it's the one on the start menu) and shell32.216 which i suppose it's the one which appears at the login screen.

hope u can solve it out cause i absolutely love ur set. btw the same thing happened me @ server 2003, never tried @ sp1

Cheers, WiSh

[fukachu]

that icon in not in the list i have in the scripts.. however you are correct that there is the shutdown icon there. im curious as to why i never saw that b4. anyway depending on when version 2 of GUIReplacer is going to be released will depend on if i update this soon or not... because when comes out this will need to have the cripts re-done.

[dpanda]

i got an archive not supported error while executing it.

[aggrophobik]

Works fine on my laptop w/ SP2.

[ciaran00]

A lot of bitmaps seem to be missing transparency. The system bitmap in the Control Panel -> System window has a white background. The monitor bitmaps in Display properties have white backgrounds. Is this a known bug?

ciaran

[fukachu]

if you read the readme it states that these bitmaps are done by Jeromebzh as he originally did the Gant2Ocean as a shell pack and i got permission and converted to GUIR. with a few changes icon wise that i made all the bitmaps and avis are his doing.

i cant see myself amending this in the future as im getting less and less time to spend on GUIR.

[VenQWish]

Won't work for me on SP2, I only see the icons and the explorer bar icons being replaced, nothing else... I quickly confirmed that windows had to use the non-official versions before the reboot but when I came back, I had my old VS and all... Here and there there are some adjustments being made but not all.

[D!rtySh@dy]

Fizical I want only your Visual Style (First page), can you release it ??? Please.

[fukachu]

please note when using this its not meant to look EXACTLY like the screenshot.

GUIR changes icons, bitmaps and avis. it will not change your Visual Style.... YET :) the next version of GUIR will give you the option to install the VS with it :)

@dirtyshady.. that is a windowblinds skin called DogmaX you can find it on this forum in the windows blinds section or at wincustomize.com

[bontakun]

i get a user.dll error on windows boot now, i haven't used guireplacer since i went to sp2, so i don't know which one to blame it on

[evo0o]

The Beav, GUIR causes an error in user32.dll

Just get the original SP2 only, and replace the edited one using Replacer.

User32.dll crashes stuff like iPodservice etc...

[bontakun]

i don't have teh user32.dll problem with other modules, like right now, i'm using fizcal's gant 1.9 release since it doesn't produce the error, it's limited to this one package
