Here's mine. Made the windows and the config myself. Icons were snag from here and there. The konfabulator looking weather is REAL. It's a WORKING version , which will update the weather pngs dynamically every hourly, to reflect the currect weather condition, and it's script is compatible with 0.80a and up till 0.84.

Holy cow, how are you doing this? Even Cure and Sim said this wasn't possible.. If you've found a way around this I'd love to know how you did it. btw, are you on the samurize forums?

hmm...it's possible. When you are in samurize official site, look under weather scripts, look for weatherPLUS. Look at the instructions on how to install it. Basically is to get ur city id.

For eg. http://weather.interceptvector.com/weather...DAwMDM%3D" is an example of my country xml page. So my id = "U05YWDAwMDM= " . Open up the 'refreshweather.vbs' and change the city id .

Note the id is the 'U05YWDAwMDM' but you have to add a ' = ' sign behind it , then after that, save and load the config. PM me if you still have problems.

And I forgot to mention, the refreshweather.vbs needs to be on the MS schedule. The refresh weather vbs will grab the infor from the web eg, temp and weather symbol and restart samurize on it own. When samurize loads, it will show the new symbol , if there's any changes , new temp and condition.

You can set the vbs to run every hourly, to avoid hammering the server.

Here's mine: Unfortunately I haven't fixed the weather errors yet.

Hey gambit, could you please tell me where you got those YzDock icons from, especially that winamp one! It's heaps mad :D

Anyone have a script for samurize that can receive optus netstat information? or maybe the tv guide for foxtel/optusnet?

I've been working on Samurize for a couple days now (weather icons still a bit iffy), the attached image is what I came up with... comments welcome :)

Hi,

For the weatherplus script,

how to set it is being run once an hour?

I can only set the script run daily on a specific time

I don't expected it needs to add 24 schedules...

Thanks.

Ok, first for 'schedule' to work, you need to have a password for your log in account for XP. I know some people like me who doesn't use password will find it a hassle, but I couldn't cheat schedule, it just plain refuses to run without a password. So added my password to my Log in account.

Ok.. after that, set it to run 'daily ' , 'schedule task' = Every 1 day . CLICK on ADVANCE Button, CHECK on "repeat task" , then for "Every " field, put in 61 minutes.

Next, Check on the "DURATION" and put in there 24 hours. Click Ok, Click apply, that should run .

Ah okay, your using the scheduler to change the png. I kinda figured that's how you were doing it..

I won't have problem installing the script, I'm on the crew ;)

:( Can't get it how to make it to change the png's

Any1 that like to explain it :( for a newbie on scripts....

Ok.. the "refreshweather vbs" is the file responsinle for getting the image infor from the website, and changing the tmp one on your computer.

So every hourly, this vbs will get the updated data from the website, changed the tmp image to be shown on your computer, then restarts samruize so that samurize can show the new image along with the new weather.

any chance of hooking us up with that script?

I can't attach the file as it's 546 kb..... way exceeded the site's maximum, anyone wants to host it? My icq, msn, aim infor is in my signature, contact me 9- 10 hrs later, coz i need to sleep. Night all.

If you can't wait, go www.samurize.com. The script is under "weather" section. It's made by cicada.

    • Chrome is Google's commercial web browser product; it consists of their proprietary features (Googlified everything including profile sync) plus their chromium project barebones web browser. Google developers control the chromium project. The chromium project is the "core" for the web browser product from other vendors including Microsoft Edge (their own proprietary features), Opera (their own features), Brave (their own features), etc... The "downstream" teams at Microsoft, Opera, Brave, etc., can either integrate their original MV2-supporting code into future builds, or they can integrate chromium wholesale and simply add-on their own features/functionalities -- their 'current' build pipeline, so to speak. THIS is why changes at the chromium project affect so many products besides only Google's commercial Chrome browser. -- Edit to add: The chromium project is open-source, and is the piece that's Google's code contribution to the W3C and world wide web at large; there are no licensing fees for others to use the code in their own products... which is what they do. Other browser engines do exist (Firefox's for example) but it's nearly impossible to have both engines bundled into the same 1 browser product.
    • You're comparing settler colonies to colonized war torn nations. It's easy to become the richest by coming in and stealing other people's land, culture and resources.
    • ABP has become "old news" when MV3 started rolling out. They've gone downhill and is now simply irrelevant..... in my experience.
    • About two years ago, I switched to Brave and haven't looked back.
    • FWIW StatCounter has been trash for over 25+ years! Back in the day (circa 2000 and GeoCities pre-Blogger era), it was useful to paste a number on your webpage indicating how many visitors you had. In the ensuing 25+ years, they've grown in reputation and changed their ways... but their overall consumer value has remained abysmal. Serious marketing agencies only cite StatCounter when there's literally no other sources available to support any marketing claims! They are the absolute lowest threshold serious companies use to push any sort of narrative about this-or-that happening. Besides their credibility being what it is, they are forever subject to quality issues. They're so bad that my DNS-level ad-filter prevents me from even viewing their main website! HA!
