just thinking for the sake of the developer and the progress, i fully understand that he can't fully focus on the project, so couldn't this project be made more openly available, and let others work on it?

I'd planned on releasing full source code as an option in the installer (2600 does, now) whenever I released the next big revision... but that hasn't really happened yet. Sourceforge won't accept it as a project, they don't accept Creative Commons licensed projects, and a large enough potion of STTP is CC-by-SA to make that a significant problem... a true central SVN repository for multiple people to access would be nice.

Dunno, maybe after I've got enough done for the Python-Powered Patcher (I do still spend a little time piddling at it, I'm planning on attacking it with full steam over my Christmas break), I'll try to make a project on it again. Since iconsets and OS definitions are used as pluggable modules, I wouldn't have to do any/much eulabending, and they might accept that as a project.

Would it be possible to use this app as a delivery method for other custom icon sets?

For example, compile a bunch of icons in a folder/file hierarchy that perfectly matches the one used by Tango patcher, then run tango patcher to have it install those icons?

It would be cool if it could. That would make icon themes in Windows as easy to use/create as icon themes in Linux (gnome in specific).

I have a few on my deviantART as well. Maybe people could start requesting what apps they would like to see skinned?

I need Virtual PC 2007 SP1..it is lot of technical work ... icons needed are 16x16 and already available....I get overworked lastmonths with doing stuff (Tango Jambo was hell of a work) and I need a rest or I will develop negative attitude for this Tangomania.

I use VirtualPC to run all non portable apps there ....programs that are hard to skin and I do not use them daily. Also virtual box app is a good idea. I will release in public my foxit reader and mime icons in return

/watch my deviant for tango stuff

Well well well, i've just got mad with tango. A shame the shell files are not windows 7. Some works, but now it says Windows Vista Tangofied, instead of Windows 7 Ultimate. :(

Oh, and i'm including a picture of witch applications wont work. I get and error each time i try to apply shell files.

      Thanks, Sony and Nintendo, you effectively killed platform-agnostic gaming. Long gone are the days when you could wish to play a specific game on whatever platform you were. Now, you have to buy the hardware just to play that single game. What, you're only interested in THAT game and nothing more? Bad luck, suck it and buy our console.

    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.

      This and Crazy Taxi are the two games that interested me the most from this showcase.
