this will be nice fix before your vocation starts

livexp.boot-land.net is not in download list of newly downloaded winbuilder.exe

Nuno must have made some changes or something when moving servers. My guess is that the 'winbuilder.net:8000' is supposed to be the LiveXP one. I don't know whether that is correct, or if it needs to be modified back to 'livexp.boot-land.net'.

[Galapo]

Trial-and-error ruled it out. Problem is now fixed, thanks for pointing it out.

Regards,
Galapo.

Back to localization issue

after many trials i found the .nls file i am looking for

for a reason i dont know, copying c_1254.nls and adding registry for c_1254.nls solves the problem of no icon of bootup when refresh on iso is selected.

Here is the ready script, fxscrpt just copy this to Basic\Tweaks\ in the test project i sent before
http://lancelot.winb...rnational_b.rar
I hope this gives clue for a better solution ?!

To summarize findings, with combing fxscrpt, galapo, my test results :
(please warn if fix needed)

HostOS x64:
1.) Enabled icon refresh on iso boot:
1.1) ahkcucontrolpanelinternational.script disabled : all icons are ok.
1.2) ahkcucontrolpanelinternational.script enabled : no icons for check disk gui + imgburn.
1.3) ahkcucontrolpanelinternational_b.script enabled : all icons are ok.
(thats the issue I reported)

2.) Disabled icon refresh on iso boot:
2.1) ahkcucontrolpanelinternational.script disabled : no icons for check disk gui + imgburn.
2.2) ahkcucontrolpanelinternational.script enabled : no icons for check disk gui + imgburn.
2.3) ahkcucontrolpanelinternational_b.script enabled : no icons for check disk gui + imgburn.

HostOS x86:
3.) Enabled icon refresh on iso boot:
3.1) ahkcucontrolpanelinternational.script disabled : all icons are ok.
3.2) ahkcucontrolpanelinternational.script enabled : all icons are ok.
3.3) ahkcucontrolpanelinternational_b.script enabled : all icons are ok.

4.) Disabled icon refresh on iso boot:
4.1) ahkcucontrolpanelinternational.script disabled : all icons are ok.
4.2) ahkcucontrolpanelinternational.script enabled : all icons are ok.
4.3) ahkcucontrolpanelinternational_b.script enabled : all icons are ok.

fxscrpt notes for situation 2.)
build from x64 all API created shortcuts (e.g Add_Shortcut,Desktop) have no icons,
but if directly created via BuildModelScript all icons are ok.

It was pure coincidence, after many trials i found that
shortcuts to %Systemroot%\some.exe are ok, but %systemdrive%\...... are not ok.
It doesn't make any difference whether API or BuildModel.

On x64 host OS plus the checkbox "Do not refresh shortcuts on ISO boot" checked on
e.g. in ImgBurn.script using these lines:
[codebox]If,%pCheckBox1%,Equal,True,Add_Shortcut,Desktop,,,,,,"%PE_Programs%\%ProgramFolder%\%ProgramEXE%#$c0" If,%pCheckBox2%,Equal,True,Add_Shortcut,StartMenu,%pTextBox1%,,,,,"%PE_Programs%\%ProgramFolder%\%ProgramEXE%#$c0" If,%pCheckBox3%,Equal,True,Add_Shortcut,QuickLaunch,,,,,,"%PE_Programs%\%ProgramFolder%\%ProgramEXE%#$c0"[/codebox]
Does it work?

Yes, yes yes

thanks again
Peter

[Lancelot]

should i PM link to Project and/or ISO?

No,

nothing else changed!!

This is what it should be.

I guess further will be made by api or psc !?!?

Also i remember galapo had shortcut issues time to time (i guess with bootsdi), so it may be related to this too (i tested with bootsdi too, and i see ImgBurn shortcut icons with dera's adding loaded too

Lets wait what will peter say.

Thank you dera

ps: i just see you are writing to vistax64 topic and happy to see that

[Lancelot]

Continuing from dera's finding, "Do not refresh shortcuts on ISO boot" checked on with changing ImgBurn.script

Add_Shortcut,Desktop,,,ImgBurn0

Add_Shortcut,Desktop,,,ImgBurn1Dera,,,"%PE_Programs%\%ProgramFolder%\%ProgramEXE%#$c0"

Add_Shortcut,Desktop,,,ImgBurn2,,,"%PE_Programs%\%ProgramFolder%\%ProgramEXE%"

Add_Shortcut,Desktop,,,ImgBurn3,,,"%SystemDrive%\Program Files\%ProgramFolder%\%ProgramEXE%"

Add_Shortcut,Desktop,,,ImgBurn4,,,"#$pSystemDrive#$p\Program Files\%ProgramFolder%\%ProgramEXE%"

(source xpenglish )

except ImgBurn0 , all others icon works

ps: I am not sure and i dont remember which post but i remember Galapo had this issue when "Do not refresh shortcuts on ISO boot" checked on with bootsdi method, and galapo's hostos is xp32. I guess dera may verify or unverify that

[pscEx]

@Dera!

After some weeks of wasted time with a lot of tests,
Maybe you spend 10 more minutes and try Explorer.Script version 050 (inside nativeEx_barebone_075, my signature)
Delete the complete %Basedir%\Temp\<project> directory before!

Peter

[dera]

Hi Peter

Do you mean to try Explorer.Script version 050 in the LiveXP project?
Yes, it works!
(using this shortcut command : Add_Shortcut,Desktop
without defining the icon file and icon index )

[dera]

Also this works:

Run,%BuildModelScript%,Add-Shortcut,"DE","#$pSystemDrive#$p\%WorkDir%\WinRAR\WinRAR.exe","WinRAR","-SW:#$pSystemDrive#$p\%WorkDir%\WinRAR"[/codebox]





But this one what is used in CD-Opera.script Version=4 available on the LiveXP server

[b]DOES NOT WORK![/b]

[codebox]//

Echo,"Creating Shortcuts..."

I'm sure you wrote it anywhere, but I'm too sad to look into all the posts

What's your host's OS?

Peter

[dera]

So maybe my test not fully correct
this test made only on a guest OS in a virtual machine: Vista x64 SP1
checkbox "Do not refresh shortcuts on ISO boot" is checked on

For 99% I'm sure that the virtual machine does not make a difference!

Thanks

I'll check with the opera script in my 'physical' Vista 64 bit.

Same on real XP x64 SP2. Icon does not load.

Peter

EDIT:

If,%ShortcutDesktop_CheckBox%,Equal,True,Run,%BuildModelScript%,Add-Shortcut,"DE","#$pprogramfiles#$p\CD-Opera\Opera.exe","%Shortcutname_TextBox%","-SF:#$pprogramfiles#$p\CD-Opera\Opera.exe"

works.

Peter,
my suggestion:
If there is no -SF parameter passed , create the parameter internally.

[MedEvil]

As far as i remember there have been problems with shortcut cretion for a long time.
When one want's to set one of the more seldom used parameters, some will not work unless all parameters are used.

If you don't get an icon before first click, but after, don't use %programfiles%, as stated somewhere in early 2007. Use "%systemdrive%\Program files".

Peter,

I already thought on that, but I'm still collecting. The facts currently for me are not yet fully sorted.

As you know, on other host OSs it is done automagically. Vista 64 seems to be different.

Our posts crossed, but part #1 I meant with 'still collecting facts'

To part #2: Can you test whether with Explorer.Script version 50 this is 'history' for you, too?

Peter

[MedEvil]

Sorry, can't test, since i havn't seen the problem in a very long time.

I only know, if the icon shows up eventually, the shortcut is coded correct.
And if it doesn't show up right from the start, then the shortcut is read before the variable is set.
Using a variable which is set earlier solves the problem, just like delaying the shortcut reading.

[Lancelot]

Medevil

You can test with enableing BootSDI + "Do not refresh shortcuts on ISO boot" checked on
On this condition sometimes quicklaunch menu dont give right icon when build made with hostosx86 (Galapo reported that before)



+ it is easier to get error with hostos x64 (not same error, but we all know all ways to Rome)

it is interesting as ImgBurn3-4 .. link work but RegEdit3-4 .. lnk dont work, which is pointed out by fxscrpt a while ago (also i am sure you wont miss other differences )

I got it!

Compare the *.lnk files!:


I have to research whether Billy the Door is responsible for the difference or me.

Unfortunatelly it looks like 'ME'!

BTW: As known in the forum: When I can reproduce a bug, it is only a question of some Latin minutes to fix (I beg your pardon, German time now is 11:37 PM. So be patient until tomorrow!)
