6.02 and Darkmod 4.0

[Dan Walsh]

I've downloaded 6.02 and everything is workin' fine but the GUI is back to the original DP. I'm assuming I can just swap out the original XML files from 6.01 or download new ones and follow Darkmods procedure for the file swap? Any advice? I've really grown accustomed to the Mod and kinda can' be without it now.

Sorry, but I had asked this question in the 6.02 update is out thread and realized I should have just posted a new topic.......

Maybe you don't need to post a new topic and you should just um… try it.

If DP 6.02 gets blowed up, just run the update installer again.

I just installed Darkmod 4.0 into DP 6.02 and (unless I have made a mistake which is always possible) no window's show up any more. Windows that were open in the project I opened are now gone. I tried to open them from the menu bar but, no go. Anybody else have any info?

Thats what I'm kinda wonderin' about. What with the new shortcut bar and other stuff, there may be a mod needed to go with the update. I'm not computer savvy enuff to smart messin' around with this stuff.........

Hi guys!!!
I just got home and realized that DP 6.02 is OUT!!! )
After trying it I must say to all DM 4.0 users do not install DM 4.0 on DP6.02, it won't work and it could crash your DP.
A new update (DarkMod 4.02) is comming very soon with all fixes and serveral graphic improvements and new designs .
As soon as I get it working I'll post it here.
Please be patience.
Cheers.

thank you sir, I tried it already and its a bad idea. I await your update as I waited for DP's, Thanks.

[Dan Walsh]

yeah, Thanx so much Iperformer. I kinda wondered if 4.0 was gonna work what with the new shortcut toolbar and other stuff. When I 6.02 I realized how much I have grown to love the darkmod these last months

Thanx again man.

I did not realize I was addicted to Darkmod until I upgraded to 6.02, so I want to thank you iPerformer, for staying on the ball.
Eagerly awaiting your new version. Meanwhile I can live with Amplidudes version, thanks mate.

Hi everybody.
Dark Mod v4.02 is going to be posted today... ( if everything goes ok ).
I want to be careful on what I'm going to say now. DP6.02 comes with different .xml files than before ( not all of them but most) and they seem to be heavier I.E. Default_Style.xml file from 6.01 = 14,479 bytes ; Default_Style.xml file from 6.02 = 14,489 bytes ; Localizable.xml file from 6.01 = 318,642 ; Localizable.xml file from 6.02 = 323,760, etc. So even if Amplidood's Mod is working, there must be something missing, as files are a little tiny bit different...Please don't take me wrong... I'm not saying not to use Amplidood's Mods (BTW I think they are very cool!!! and I think Dood made a great job!) I'm just saying to wait until Amplidood check them and make a new (updated) version of them 'cause now it works, but as I said something is missing...
Just that.
Cheers.

Coooollllll. I look forward to this. I tried 6.02 for a bit last night and even though I had the halogen's dim, my room was still too bright. It made me mental .......

Hey iPerformer,

If you discover how it would be possible to change the words "Bypass On" and "Bypass Off" to a simple and consistant "Bypass", that would be great. The inclusion of the words "on" and "off" when they are so unnecessary (and actually cause for confusion) really kind of bothers me. I'm sure most people are able to overlook this and do not care much about it, but personally it irks me every time I need to bypass something.

Whether you change this or not, thank you for your continued efforts in trying to satisfy this community with your mod. You are a fine fellow!

Hi zed.

I really don't see as an important problem the Bypass On or Off feature. I think if there are more DM 4.02 users that ask for it I will do it...as it's not dificult, but I hope you understand that I can't please everybody's requests as it will be very painful for me.
As I said if some other users ask for that I'll be pleased to do it.
BTW DM 4.02 is out !
Cheers.

No problem at all. I completely understand.

I actually did some of my own modifications last year, which I quite like, so I am sure I can figure out how to change this if it continues to bug me (although my mods were only changes to some of the image files). Do you happen to know off the top of your head if this is something that would need to be modified in one of the XML files? I don't think I'm going to venture into editing those.

THHAAAANNNXXX so much for this Iperformer. I can't wait to install this in the morning. I'do it now, but I've been tracking and comping all day and night and I'm cooked for the day.

Thanx again
