Life is nice being stable (even with less memory :P)

Yep CyberBugFix should be simply be called CyberBug :laughing

Use it at your own risk :guru

I fixed quite a major bug in CyberBugFix a while ago. You can find the fixed version here, maybe it works better on your system.

Yep, and CWB39 is a shit without any memory patch; you can't open anything without running out of memory. With it (and I use the old version) you've got plenty of it. (Btw now I will "update" it).

BTW Novacoder did you fix your memory problems? http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?...highlight=chip

And to go on Topic, isn't there anybody good making icons?

I'm no icon artist but converting images to dualpng glowicons via ImageConverter is easy. This is one made from the KGLoad logo:

It can then be converted to an OS3.5 icon thanks to the icon.library by PeterK:

I have made hundreds of icons in this way. :)

killergorilla 08 October 2012 20:38

Any chance of screenshots? :D

The bottom two are just duplicates to show the selected images.

Retrofan 08 October 2012 22:48

The result you get is perfect James, only too big (I suposse you did it this way just to show it):

I like it, but you would have the "name" twice in the icon.
You could try too with killergorilla's avatar.

You can overcome that by renaming the icon " .info" and the KGLoad app to " " (where the spaces are, er, space characters). :)

I was thinking yesterday if that could be done. That would be perfect if it works.

Marvellous James. How did you delete the red background of his avatar? Just Image Converter? How?

No, I have made things sound a bit simpler than they really are. Images need alpha transparency to be converted into DualPNG glowicons. It is a simple task to add it with ArtEffect4 e.t.c. though, and all PNG icons and many other PNG images already have it. You also need to ensure there is enough space around the image to add the glow effect.

Retrofan 09 October 2012 18:50

I don't want to go off topic James, but if you could make a thread explaining step by step for example just how you've done this icons this would be great.
Just think about it. Thanks mate :) (I would like to make one with my avatar...).

mfilos 09 October 2012 20:54

Retrofan check your PM :)

Retrofan 09 October 2012 23:44

Just my opinion, but now that they are making the complete images package, a KGWHDLoad pack just with that games in english versions would be perfect.

OK will start a new thread. Not quite a step by step guide at the moment, but will try to improve it over time. :)

:great

As someone said it's better to show a man how to use a fishing rod than to give him the fish.

I'll get rid of all the debug numbering and upload a clean version.

Hi KG, how's the clean version going? With it it will only be later to add the images, won't it?

killergorilla 17 October 2012 11:09

It's going well thanks.

Stuff's still being added, as well as work on the screenshots and boxart. Expect an update in the next couple of weeks.

Me and TCD have a hell of a lot going on (separately - not together) at the moment. Will return to service in January!

Retrofan 18 January 2013 00:14

Ajum, cof, cof... sorry I've got a cold... :nervous
