Vista Transformation Pack 2.0


Due to many serious situations, Vista Transformation Pack was caused to be improper release with some conflicts and incomplete. This time everything (in my eyes) has been corrected and pushed into the right way. No more adware bundled, transformation repairing feature, decent Aero Style VSes update and popular 3rd-party softwares included such as Glass2k and LClock. Moreover, I'll release Vista Transformation Pack in two versions. First version stands for full package transformation from firstly leaks until now and second ones stands for Vista light-weight transforming for users who want to experience only Vista.

The"Lite" version doesn't include previous stuffs from Longhorn Transformation Pack for the adventages of users who have dial-up connection and want to use only Vista stuffs. This can save up lots of time and bandwidthes to download from over 25 MB to less than 5 MB!

What's different from "Full" version?
-1 font (Segoe UI+Bold only)
-2 skins (Longhorn SideBar, Vista) and Vista clock for Longhorn SideBar 6.0
-3 visual styles (Aero Style (Glass - 50xx), Aero Style (Glass - 51xx) and Aero Style (Vista - Beta 1))
-5 wallpapers (Keynote Glass+Widescreen, Keynote Grass+Widescreen and WinV_Wallpaper)
-Removed MSN skins
-Removed previewer
-Replaced all radio options with checkbox option (of course Vista's ones)

Changes in Version 2.0

-Added Glass2k (Make window transparent)
-Added LClock (Longhorn tray clock look with calendar)
-Added transformation repairing feature (Check for different file from backup and re-patch only that file)
-Fixed failing to patch system files in non-English OS (For sure this time)
-Fixed Longhorn SideBar first run error (not 100% and still occurs on another account)
-Fixed losing after transforming updated files during uninstallation
-Removed WhenU's bundled stuffs (I feel regret adding it but money pressure is really something)
-Updated Internet Explorer 7 icon with new branding for Vista's icons (I forgot to put it in last version)
-Updated visual styles
|-Splitted 50xx and 51xx themes in "Aero Style (Glass)"
|-Added "Thin TaskBar" theme into Aero Style
|-Remaked "Aero Style (Glass - 50xx)" visual style
|-Updated "Aero Style" (Glass and Vista - Beta 1) visual style with 5231 graphics
||-Transparent Start Button and TaskBandButton

yah i looked at the screenshot and turned it down.
DarkJedi
its not supposed to be a complete transformation as u can't get explorer to look like vista in XP.

Does everybody remember Longhorn Transformation Pack? Remember how that fucked up your system? Ain't no chance I'm downloading this. But def. nice work. Just not for some of us.

The Last One crashed my System. Must format the OS....
Forget it cool2.gif
Windows X
So far nobody reported me 2.0 crushed their systems except failing to change boot screen or something minors which can be corrected once they transform again. It's up to you by now because criticial issues are gone.
HybridShadow
i used to use lhtp and i never had problems, its usually people not reading the instructions and getting it wrong.
Windows X have you thought of using bricopack type transformations like xpize or Inspirat. Pack?
The Chozen
Same as DarkJedi and matt5108.

I've been with the LHTP since it first surfaced - and despite all the bugs people have been talking about I have never had a single problem with any of the packs smile.gif

And the Aero Style Glass is just great!! But at the moment I will continue using my OS X style untill I get my Powerbook biggrin.gif
