[Shell Patcher] Tango Icons for Windows


Recommended Posts

Was anyone able to change TC button bar as seen here:

I did everything as described @ http://www.darkt.net/tango/?page=apps&app=ttlcmdr but still I can't change button bar.

Adding this to wincmd.ini

[Configuration]

drivelib=C:\Program Files\totalcmd\tango_shell32.dll

IconLib=C:\Program Files\totalcmd\tango.icl

The way I see it in order to change button bar there has to be a filename*.bar which is not included with a pack. If that's not the case please correct me. :)

Another "Tango" visual style which works perfectly well with the Tango icons:

i totally hate this startmenu with userpicture, can anyone remove it (edit the start menu) and send to me?

thanks

Huh... got a new one. It's a generic system icon, found it in IE7 printing dialog and checked my printers and faxes and there they were: default shared printers...
If a generic printer icon is alright, that'll be in The Next Revision.

Hmm... I guess I'm going to have to finally get around to grabbing the shareware version to fiddle with it.
High resolution enough? :whistle:

What do you need that much resolution for, wallpaper or heckling me for my cheesy vector skills :wacko:
Any word on any updates to the Tango! patcher?
Say the word and you'll be free. Say the word and be like me. Say the word I'm thinking of, have you heard the word is love?

Another icon that needs fixing is the font types icons (.tff etc)

When viewed for tiles, they get all pixelated.

+1 for that :pinch:

Also, you broke scalyvectors_wrong.png in the mouse control panel.

Is there an appropriate Tango icon for use with audio files? Namely MP3s?

Is there an appropriate Tango icon for use with audio video files? Namely MP3sAVIs?

I made my own filetype icon but it don't work too good.

Wireless network wizard icon is b0rked at 16x16. Looks weirdish.

Can you add support for "Wireless Link". It is installed on all XP systems but not activated (I believe) unless you have the correct hardware. Or I could be completely wrong and everyone sees it.

Again in the mouse control panel, could you replace the bigass mouse with a bigass Tango mouse?

Also :

Address Book

Synchronize

Program Compatibility Wizard

Paint

"Network Connections" icon is b0rkage. (16x16)znxrznucz.png

The left side is... dead.

Remote Assistance

New Connection Wizard

Everything Accessability

System Information

Can you edit the registry? If so, you should make my DVDShrink toolbar better (or make your own, transparent png goodness) and change the registry to point to it. [HKCU\Software\DVD Shrink\DVD Shrink 3.2\Preferences\] [string : CustomToolBar \\\ Data : p:\ath\to\file.png

If you can edit INIs, you should edit opera6.ini and point the icon to a Tango one. [And edit the start menu shortcut to point to the Tangified icon)

You should change them manually ;)

That's another Windows bug, not an STTP bug.

1. You broke <sizing> in the mouse control panel.

2. Is there an appropriate Tango icon for use with audio/video files? Namely MP3s/AVIs?

3. Wireless network wizard icon is b0rked at 16x16. Looks weirdish.

4. Can you add support for "Wireless Link". It is installed on all XP systems but not activated (I believe) unless you have the correct hardware. Or I could be completely wrong and everyone sees it.

5. Again in the mouse control panel, could you replace the bigass mouse with a bigass Tango mouse?

6. <random miscellaneous stuff>

7. Network Connections" icon is b0rkage. (16x16) The left side is... dead.

1. Yep. Looks like I forgot to add the enhanced 32x32 image for that.

2. Audio-x-generic and Video-x-generic, respectively.

3. Same as fonts.

4. Maybe. I'll have to see if my notebook's IR port is supported, otherwise I'll try to skin it blind.

5. It'll look bad. It needs to be a 16-color Windows default palette image, so I'll have to get even more creative with using no-and-a-half colors than I did with the bootlogo. It's all greys, which might help.

6. Some yes, some no. Lack of pre-existing icons and good metaphors for some of that stuff, etc. I can edit registry entries and INI files, though, and Opera's INI file is planned for modification.

7. That's normal. That's what it looks like.

Probably kill the on-boot reloader for now. If you like, I'll PM you my email address or MSN account so you can send me your logon.scr file for analysis and/or spin a quick build or batch script to dump the reshack log. Firefox - use the uninstaller with only the Firefox option enabled, or use the override functionality to provide an unmodified firefox executable (which you should be able to find in the pack's "backup" directory) Edited by vertigosity

@whizbt77: there was a link in the topic somewhere ;)

yep. i searched the topic, found a link...also realized that something was wrong with it (i tried everything, safe mode and all) so now im stuck again. will any1 be willing to share their tango screensaver? id appreciate it very much.

Yeah, sure. Download here, version 5.1.2600.2180 (xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158) if the version pertains to your problems using it. Edited by vertigosity

This is probably going to sound stupid but does anyone know how to change the icons that some programs (such as Yahoo Messenger and whatnot) put in the System Try? I think it's got to do with reshack but I'm not sure. I want to change my Trillian icon to the generic Tango Chat icon :D

Hehe, that's my creation. I think I am going to make the .ico file in different resolutions (instead of the just the 32x32 one). Say so, if you think I should.

edit~I wish I was good at iconing to help you guys out...but sadly, I am not :(

Theres a generic Tango chat icon? :o

Reshack, reshack, reshack.

I have given up on MSNIM as I cannot for the life of me get it to work.

thx vertigosity! it worked but how excatly do u set it as default screensaver?? it keeps on changing it back to the old one....
Either give it another name and use the normal pref. UI, or do the necessary trickery (google for instructions, or use Replacer. Replacer's nice and simple.)

    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation by Taras Buria Story time. A couple of weeks ago, I experienced a very odd thing with my computers. I was trying to reinstall Windows 11 on my primary device, and everything was going smoothly until the installer performed the first restart. After that, my computer entered the boot disk selection screen instead of continuing the setup process. Huh, that's odd, said I, and selected Windows Boot Manager only to see it fall back into the same screen right away. Then I tried booting from the USB drive with the same result—the PC kept returning to the boot device selection screen, and removing the drive would send my PC to UEFI, again, with no way to launch Windows 11. I fired up my spare laptop, which has been sitting unused for quite a while, to see if I am dealing with a defective USB drive. Nope, Windows 11 installed and started without issues. After trying another drive and checking all the possible settings in UEFI, I decided to try disabling Secure Boot. Lo and behold, Windows 11 started as it should have been in the first place, continued the setup process, and reached the initial setup screen. Victory! After I finished the setup and applied all updates, I re-enabled Secure Boot, and Windows 11 started without issues. Some time later, I tried reinstalling Windows 11 on my laptop only to experience similar issues, with UEFI claiming a Secure Boot violation. I checked whether the drive works on my main PC, and yes, it installed Windows 11 without errors. I scratched my head, went to UEFI, turned off Secure Boot, and installed Windows 11 without issues. After that, I enabled Secure Boot. Note: I used the official Media Creation Tool app for my USB drive. Also, UEFI was properly configured for Windows 11, including no Legacy Mode, a GPT-partitioned drive, and TPM and Secure Boot enabled. From my experience, if you are dealing with similar symptoms, I recommend two things: If you use old Windows 11 install media, create a new one with the latest Windows 11 release, especially if you know your PC already has the latest Secure Boot certificates. If you cannot create a new one, turn off Secure Boot, complete the installation, download all available updates, and then re-enable Secure Boot in UEFI. Note that you need to turn off Secure Boot after installing Windows 11. Otherwise, the installer won't run, claiming a hardware requirements mismatch. I believe the problem hides in Secure Boot certificates that expire this month. Microsoft is currently rolling out new certificates, and maybe a mismatch was causing these issues for both of my systems. I am out of my depth to make a definitive statement; this article is flagged as "Opinion," as I only share my experience and some tips on how to fix the problem. If some of you possess deeper knowledge and understanding of the situation, please share it in the comments. As for everyone else struggling with computers not booting after a clean install, the two steps above should get you out of the pickle.
    • I gave the tool a chance the other day to make a USB. An hour later it was stuck at 0% downloaded. I downloaded the official ISO, downloaded Rufus, and made the USB myself in 15 min.
    • <Moved to software discussion and support> I've got fond memories of Winamp. Changing the skins, the different visualisations etc. But now I just need a simple music player. MSN messenger would be another one, MSN Messenger Plus (I think?) offered so many different plugins. But again, it probably wouldn't work for me these days. And then there is miRC. i think it's still going these days, but lord i had fun with that back in the day. Now it's mostly stuff like Discord, WhatsApp group chats, Signal, Telegram... /me is showing his age...
    • ive always been fascinated by old software this is an old video player for windows from apple
    • In the way that you framed it incorrectly. You wrote: "The constant need to close all browser sessions and wait for a new version to install" There's no "constant need to close all browser sessions". That's factually incorrect. The browser downloads its updates in the background and installs them when you open it again. Silently. And there's no "wait for a new version to install", updates are small and take 2-3 extra seconds AT MOST, if any. If you have an SSD, there's zero extra time. Also, every mainstream browser operates this way. Firefox, the FOSS go-to browser, the default on almost every Linux distro, does exactly the same. Also, you don't need to constantly restart Edge for updates to install, you can completely ignore them and it doesn't even ask you to handle them, it's all silent and automatic. So I don't understand what else do you want.
