CeL_dAmAgE Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Holy crap, this is pretty big news. I'm pretty sure it was stated that this would be more closely emulating "Tiger," no more "Panther." Probably new programs too! So, Flyakite, when you see this, keep up the awsome work! The 2nd version was just stunning, I really want to see how this'll turn!

However, mine did leave two things during the uninstall. The notepad icon and the Help and Support Center images. However, this has been fixed for v3.0. In fact I've redesigned the install/uninstall method so that there will never be any files left behind during an uninstall.

»X« Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 I am currently using a custom logon, startup screen, iconpackager and a custom visual style. How will this programme handle that? Will i need to reset it all to default first?

flyakite Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 I am currently using a custom logon, startup screen, iconpackager and a custom visual style. How will this programme handle that?Will i need to reset it all to default first? 586861970[/snapback] Depends on what is controlling those elements on your system. Icon Packager will always override the system icons, so that would definitely have to be disabled. If the custom logon is set by the logonui key in the registry to a new one, then FlyakiteOSX will override that, since that's how it sets it. The startup screen is more than likely also changed by an app by using the /kernel=newstartup.exe type switch in Boot.ini. That you'll need to set to default, since FlyakiteOSX v3.0 will set a new /kernel value. The visual style is generally controlled on startup by a registry setting, so FlyakiteOSX should override this as well. To be safe though, if you plan on using FlyakiteOSX, it's best to set the other stuff to default or disable any other apps you have controlling those elements.
