What do you guys think, this is my first samurize script. I copied the images from a guy who didn't want to share his script.

Here's the final version...

I'm still trying to see if I can add more to it, but I'm done for the day.

There's a white outline above the partly cloudy in the weather... I did that on purpose... I removed the name of the city I'm in (I don't want no neofreaks stalking me ;) )

It is nice isn't it? You wouldn't believe how many people have asked me about the clock! (if you don't know what I mean, see that the hands on it matches with the windows's clock? That's right, it moves!)

As for the scripts, they can be found in samurize's website, but the BBC news/TV channels and Weather are all from the BBC site and written by various members on OCUK. I find that the Weather forcast in the BBC site is more accurate then the normal Weatherplus script.

still fiddling with it though

Great looking config Raymond, awesome, how did u get the clock to move?

[ToastGodSupreme]

mushroom, what weather script are you using? I'm thinking about going back toa simpler one here for .85b

[Vidar]

Nice adaptation ToastGod, I've been looking at a smaller config for that. The cards are nice :)

[NeoWhen]

ToastGODSupreme: Thanks for the script!

First 'real' foray into Serious Samurize. Each box is a separate insance of Client.exe. The weather is based on WeatherPlus - had some problems with the restart script not killing off the old instance of client/weather. Think I've fixed it but it needs to run for a while longer yet to be sure. Also modded the weather script to use the recent ability to pass arguments into script functions.

Maybe I need to add some icons to this. Whaddya think?

[Bizkit]

damn! hook us up with the scripts. at least the clock, and weather one for me. on for me! and tell me where you got those dock icons!!!

[edit] and the wallpaper too! great stuff man!

The clock has been posted. Check this thread I believe and the samurize site.

That setup judge is using is quite simple.

He's using extended calendar (samurize site), the clock, a weather script (i prefer weatherdotcom 2003, seems the fastest and the one with the least amoutn of bugs), and the bottom stuff is just some simple monitors... pngs, well, not too hard to recreate what he's do\ne either ;) hehe

But yeah. :)

Anywho, my latest version of samurize is in the screenie below. Updated the weather to use weatherdotcom2003 (no it does not support pngs, those are static).

Heres a link to that clock by Binary https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?act=...l

[Bizkit]

thanks man, but i would like his pngs for the dock and samurize, and his wallpaper also, but i will look for the wallpaper

[r0c]

sorry fellas i seem to be the newb on samurize..

if i understand correctly, i use the image and incorporae it with a wallpapper and place the samurize config to fig the image ?

thats what im assuming needs to be done

[wreckk]

Wow... redFX pretty nice job on emulating my samurize script.

I'm using Vidars thingy but the weather isnt updating at all and do those pngs change with the weather?

Don't worry about it. Heh. I had his weather thing up and running too. F*cked with it for hours and couldn't get it to update. Finally, just as I was going to use another weather script, it updated itself.

Honestly, I'm not too pleased with weatherplus (that script).

So now I'm using weatherdotcom 2003.

It updates properly, and no use of messy xml, or cached files to clear, etc. :)

Not sure if the pngs update too.

lol that sounds annoying

So now I'm using weatherdotcom 2003.

can you use that for citys in the UK?

Hrm, to be honest, I don't think so. I'm not 100% sure about that though. Easiest is to have to have a US zip code.

But being that it's weather.com and they go all over the place, there's a chance, that instead of entering the zip, you enter the city/state/region/etc where you are, and it should work out. I'm thinking it may work along the lines of how extended weather worked.

I'll look into how the code actually brings up the info and get back to you on it.

and icedevil, how about cropping it man? we don't need your entire desktop to see what appears to be 200x300 pixel's worth of area used by samurize ;) :p

[ToastGodSupreme]

HEY MONKEY MAN!

Found out how to get it to use stuff in places like the uk.

Instead of entering the zip code (it'll ask you to do it for each piece of active script you add in the samurize config, no need to edit the vbs files at all), well, here, I'll show you... :)

UKXX0085

That's the "zip code" for London, UK.

I got that from this address:

http://www.weather.com/outlook/travel/loca...LocalUndeclared

I got that address from here:

http://www.weather.com/common/welcomepage/...?from=globalnav

You have to search it from there.

Now this works if you select the weather.com.FORCAST script... not sure if the weather.com.OUTLOOK will work though. I'll take a closer look later. I'm off to the lake for some fun. :)

OK This is my version of WeatherPlus. It only uses one script file, and it updates the PNGs - no need to use the windows scheduler to kill/start samurize - it is all done from within Samurize itself.

The script currently relies on you running a specific samurize instance called 'weather'. There is a link file in the ZIP that should do it for you if you just double-click on it and then select the 'JudgeWeather' config.

You will need to edit the config to change your location - you only need to edit the script if you want to change to using celsius.

To find the code for your location go to http://weather.interceptvector.com/list.php, then you can either use the Samurize config editor to edit the meter, or you can just edit the .ini file directly: search for 'Param1=' and change the value. If you use the config editor there is a meter with no text hidden between the two PNGs :unsure:

If you want to use the script in you own config, you will need to make sure that you call getCacheFile() - it takes two arguments the first is the number of minutes to wait before updating the data and restarting the Samurize instance called 'weather'- the second is the location you retrieved above.

If this all sounds complicated - well, it isn't really :rofl:
