Aqua Dock Is Out...

Aqua Dock 1.0..downloaded and it looks and works LIKE CRAZY! YZ dock is finally finished. Caugh caugh...it's not YZ..what am I saying, it can't be ;)

#135402

that's not how you spell cough.

repackaging somebody elses work is f'ing assholic.

#135405

ok let I am kinda lost, aqua dock isn’t it a rip of YZ dock.... isn't illegal to download...

Either way... this is spam...

#135409

Aqua Dock is a rip of Y'zdock. If you add English.lang from Y'zDock into Aqua Dock you'll see Y'zDock.

#135413

that is because English.lang is actually a DLL and you can Reshack it as you want...

#135421

well I personally think that it's the same author. That's why it says version 1.0..if you remember the last one was 0.83 before it was canceled.

#135422

Aqua-Dock is a direct clone of Y'z Dock. And because of that Aqua-Dock is just as illegal as Y'z. I doubt that Mr. Y is behind this because he already got in huge trouble with his Y'z Dock.

#135424

if it is the same author, then I'd use it. Objectdock hasn't exactly been developed all that much and the latest beta shows no changes.

#135425

uh... yeah, and i have halflife2.1 that i'll sell you or anyone a copy for 30$ and its not stolen because its got a .1 and as you are so intelligent you can see this is a legitmate claim to authenticity as obviously 2.0 comes before 2.1 therefore its the real deal.

what a stupid line of reasoning.

it ain't the same author, its a rip

#135426

and were can i get tha "famous" dock????? -_--_- :canadian:

#135428

What's so special about Aquadock? Does it have better functionality then Y'z Dock 0.83? Then what's the big deal about enhancing someone's app? As long as Mr. Y will get his credit for it, I will give credit to the one enhancing it and be glad...

So... What's better about Aquadock?

#135430

You can't just reverse engineer an app and give the author "credit". Mr. Y stopperd working on Yz dock because of apple, which means nobody else should continue it.

Where are the mods....

I have informed them.

Members, please respect this unofficial close. We don't want anything to get out of hand. A Mod/Admin will close it, none are present at this time.

i have hl2 you dont need to send it to me.....if its a rip, i wouldn't use it because the programmer prolly sucks ass and wants credit for something he never made, unlike mr. y.

#135434

hey realitybath, you're really funny little man you know that. AND YOU KNOW THAT IT"S NOT ORIGINAL AUTHOR! Seriously man, go find something else to do and don't post your smart ass comments in this thread. The bottom line is, I don't give a sh*t whether or not it's a copycat. I just posted the news and that it works better.

stateo, first of all the author is unknown...so nobody is taking credit for this release.

second it just simply runs much smoother, same options, not exactly the same as Apple because icon animations when you click on them are taken out now, it has a different effect. So obviously, "somebody" tried to avoid 100% look of apple dock. Everything is pretty much the same, but the bottom line is it feels much smoother and faster now.

That's all. As for the link, I'm not gonna be posting any links here because that would be inappropriate.

its not reeaaaal, cause its not 2.1 :6 :lol:

oops...closed...

#135436

AquaDock is not original, it is Y'z Dock and is nothing more then a Reshacked Y'z .83. There is no new functionality, there isnt ANY new code, the name has been been changed throughout the .exe that is all.

If I took Mr. Y's Dock and opened with a hex editor and changed some words around, this is what aquadock is. It's complete bull**** and is just some little ****le$$ piece of crap trying to make people think that he wrote something.

Open the file with a hex editor, and open Y'z and compare before anyone posts things like "Then what's the big deal about enhancing someone's app?"

First, it isnt enhanced, nothing changed but some words...NOTHING.

"Aqua-Dock is a direct clone of Y'z Dock" Wizard, it isnt a cloned, its the exact same file that a dumba$$ little wannabe opened with a hex editor and changed the NAME!!!

"that is because English.lang is actually a DLL and you can Reshack it as you want... " -- Umm, its Y'z file, everything is, words have been changed, there is no difference from Y'z dock a long time ago and aquadock, the ****le$$ person just changed some words, no programming, no coding, nothing more then opening someone else's files and changing words.

Simply put, its a fake, not a clone, nothing new, and is complete bull****.

Open in a hex editor and compare the files, Y'z name and Y'z dock version numbers are in there, the files are exact, just words changed that show on the outside have been changed.

Mr. Y'z is mad as hell about this wannabe, as this ****le$$ person is doing nothing more then getting him in more trouble, as I pointed out a Long, long time ago when the ****le$$ wonder came here posting aquadock and acting like he made it.

#135439

if you look at the sizes of the exe and dll files you can see that it's exactly the same as Y'Z Dock 0.8.3. It's only a reshacked version and it just cannut run smoother or faster :)

#135440

gnubug & raduking, that's the type of answer I expect from someone at Aqua Soft. I personally haven't checked the hex so I guess the smoother feeling might have been just a pshychological effect. I agree that this program might get mr. Y in more trouble.

Thanks for clarifying.

Let's consider this topic closed. I'm deleting this program immediatelly because I have great respect towards mr. Y.

I'd like to ask administrators to delete this thread.

#135442

well im working on a little project.... kinda hush hush... but its code named aqua dock 50hundredbillion

What did you think when we were saying it was a rip? An exact clone? Now all of a sudden you see the light? That's what we been trying to tell you all along. Now you make it sound like it was all a test. I don't appreciate you giving all of us a shoulder and then when you figure out you're wrong, you are on our side.

I have already informed the Powers That Be to close this thread and I unofficially closed it. Just because I don't have the autority to close a thread doesn't mean that you can ignore loyal and avid members of this community. The Mods/Admins cannot be here all the time so it's veterans, like myself, that have to cool down everyone until proper staff sees this.

You have insulted me in every way that you can on these boards. You ignored everything that was said previously by other members, and you ignored a member that was obvioulsy trying to help the situation, but you made it worse.

#135445

hit 'im with the wand, wizard! :lol:

code named aqua dock 50hundredbillion

5,000,000,000,000.01 RC1 ? are you releasing betas soon? :smartass: :rant: :6 :lol:

#135447

hey wizard, I don't really see what your problem is...nobody said anything similar as gnubug. I thought I felt that it was running a bit faster and I still do, but what gnubug said made sense.

I don't lick anyone's a.ss so please don't treat me like some a.sshole.

Finally I really don't care if you're personally offended or not. Mostly everything that's happening in these forums is in one way or another illegal or at least immoral. Design of one OS is protected intelectual property and no modification changes that, but I respect people because I personally also enjoy having my system at least look a bit like that. I'm no skinner, I'm just a user and when I ask/say something I expect someone to tell me why something is as they claim, not just because they said so, so please don't preach to me.

And for your information, I'm not ignoring anyone. I have great respect for a lot of people here and you should keep your personal emotional instabilities for yourself. From reply #1 people started bashing and reacting like crazy, not to mention checking my spelling and so on. So please.

#135449

Easy, people, feel the love. Thread will be shut shortly for sure. No point in last-minute sniping anymore.
