[Shell Patcher] Super Turbo Tango Patcher 6000

[vertigosity]

any newz?

Not really... I haven't really had time to work on it since the Fourth of July holiday, benpbrown.com is going down, and I don't really want to throw a half-assed pre-alpha up on DA, so it's going back into hiding for a while. I found out what I needed to know from the simple little preview version - that I'm going to need to do a lot more work to get everything right for everyone, and ATM I don't really have time to do much more with it. nVidia drivers still run my GPU fan at 100%, so I still can't use Vista as my primary OS, anyways.

Take your time. :)

[MrFuji]

^ Exactly :)

I'll use Ubuntu till then... ^^

Slightly off topic, but if you install nVidia's nTune app on vista, you can control the fan speed. BTW, if you need hosting, I might beable to provide something ;)

Yeah the vista's nvidia drivers no longer have temp sensing, Overclocking ect.. you have to download nTune, that might work to control your fan speeds.

This looked really good :(

Success! The last version of nTune I tried didn't have that option exposed/visible for me, but the version that I downloaded yesterday along with the new dets did :D

Now time will tell if it keeps it from melting down, or just statically sets my fan to a percentage and leaves it there...

What happened to the Tango XP thread?

[MrFuji]

^It's in the XP Forum :whistle:

Those tangerine folders look fantastic, how long before the links up ?

[KaLiBL33K]

Seriously, I'm DYING to download this. I've been using the XP Tango Patcher for a while now, and I'm literally not going to upgrade to Vista until I get the Vista-compatible one. Haha.

Does anybody have the file they can upload and link until vertigosity returns?

the sooner the better...i love the way tango looks on linux. I would use it but my X-fi isn't supported (thanks Creative) so I'm stuck with Windows.

[vertigosity]

Is it supported on Vista anyways :p?

Should you be asking that question :whistle: ?

Why not? I've heard same bad things about Creative's Vista drivers lately; apparently, they're lazier about proper Vista support than... well, me.

It's uploaded to DeviantArt, for anyone who's brave/stupid enough to try it.

[DrivenDaily]

haha the x-fi is a little shaky on vista too...especially the crackling/hissing/angry sounds when i have cool & quiet enabled (due to a long known nForce4 conflict that creative wont fix) but at least its better than onboard.

i'll let you know if the shell patcher solves any problems lol

[Tuco]

Looks fantastic ! soooo much better than Vista's standard look, cheers !

[BlakByte]
