really? is it any buggy?

I'm a new poster here...but I kicks it with this transformation pack, and so far I haven't found anything to whine about...yet :whistle:

But I gotta say that this pack rocks, and even though I haven't tested the previous versions, I still find this one quite stable.

looks good, installed fine on my computer but i think i found a bug (not much off a bug, just a bit annoying), all the balloon tips on the taskbar, the ones next to the clock, all appear but they all show behind the taskbar

apart from that, good work!!

I'm pretty sure that's a bug in Windows, happens to me all the time no matter what visual style I'm using. The tooltips always come back after a reboot though.

    • Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 PC case is now 33% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 is currently $109.99 on Amazon, down from its original $164.99 list price. That's 33% off and $55 saved on this premium aluminum mid-tower case with a modular design. If you're upgrading your PC case and want something that doesn't force you into a rigid layout, the MasterFrame 600 is worth a look. The case is built around the Cooler Master's FreeForm 2.0 platform, which lets you reconfigure the internal structure according to your hardware. Magnetic side panels allow for straightforward adjustments, and the case supports everything from Mini-ITX to E-ATX motherboards without compromise. There's also generous cooling headroom. Four pre-installed PWM fans handle airflow out of the box. GPU clearance goes up to 410mm, and the case supports radiators up to 420mm with room for three simultaneously. Truth be told, this might not be the prettiest case on the market, but it’s highly functional. The aluminum construction keeps the whole thing lightweight despite its size, and the finish looks noticeably better than the plastic mid-towers competing at this price point. If you want a serious, flexible case that prioritizes function over flashy aesthetics like RGB lighting, the MasterFrame 600 delivers at a reasonable price.
