Shell32 On Sp2

Hi all,

I just tried using Flyakite's shell32 on my just-updated SP2 install.

No luck, unfortunately......lots of explorer.exe errors ("....Has encountered a problem" etc).

Apparently SP2 uses quite some quite rewritten dll files. netshell.dll didn't work either (lost network connections panel).

Oh well....just have to wait for new mods to appear!

(and put up with ugly defaults in the meanwhile :6 )

Mini SP2 Review: no groundbreaker - in fact I've turned off the firewall and AV stuff (got better 3rd party stuff). Still, now I've got it slipstreamed, it saves all those numerous little Winupdate trips every time I reinstall.

DO NOT use any modded system files from SP1 on a system that has been upgraded to SP2.

About 80% of the system files have be re-written by M$.

Note the size of SP2... it's frikkin HUGE!!!.

Also, batchmod and replacer are not recommended either as SP2 file resource locations are not exactly the same as the SP1 versions.

As was done with SP1 sys files, the first run will more than likely have to be done manualy.

replacer is being updated. in fact, users are asked to submit bug reports so undefined can fix it up.

Batchmod ist working, I updated all the StefanKa systemfiles, just a few errors, but I have fixed all of them at that moment. I'm just editting some dialogs at the moment.
