well it worked for me, but it did the same thing... it ignored my choices... my choices were 3.0 (vanilla) and inf addon. I got: ayakawa 3.0.2 pre and switchless silent addon (not installer). but I didn't notice it spitting any errors in any of the windows... oh and also chose not to edit reg file and it still opened the file and waited for me to close it and click continue...
This error should have been fixed in 0.45, which version are you referring to with this?

Replace Icons.
Firefox uses 3 kind of icons.
Index No: 0 => Basic icon. Shown on links
Index No: 1 => File icons. Shown on html files.
Index No: 32512 => Shown on program windows left up corner.
Basicly icon0 and icon32512 are same.
For example if you renamed your 2 icon files as 0.ico and 1.ico
In command promt:
ResHacker.exe -addoverwrite firefox.exe, firefox.exe, 0.ico, Icon,0, => This will replace main icon
ResHacker.exe -addoverwrite firefox.exe, firefox.exe, 1.ico, Icon,1, => This will replace html file icon
ResHacker.exe -addoverwrite firefox.exe, firefox.exe, 0.ico, Icon,32512, => This will replace program windows left up corner icon
All DoNE. Icons replaced.
All informations can be found on ResHacker Help file, under Commandline Scripting topic
U may use a res file included all icons in one file.
ResHacker.exe -addoverwrite firefox.exe, firefox.exe, icons.res,,, => This will replace all icons in res file.
Thank you, Thank you
I just haven't had the time for the reading of ResHacker Help file, but was planning for next version or so.
Thanks again.
I get "Canot execute .\FirefoxAddonMaker_v0.45\bin\WBAT.COM" error when i start the tool :\screenshot included
This one stumps me for the moment. But, I endeavor to figure it out.
Did you remove wsh from your installation? If from command promt you type cscript what response do you get? You should get a message tlling you proper usage. If not, my script will not work for you. All of the links, filenames, etc are done by vbscript.
***EDIT***
I see that in the screenshot, the vbscript is working. It must be something else. hmmm....
Jonnyboy v.0.45 does not work for me..I can't make anything and I do not get any log files...Again. No idea what the problems might be. I could use more info. What did it do? Where did it stop? Di it crash? Did it ever start? The more info you can provide, the easier it will be for me to find the cause.
Thank you
Thanks jonnyboy for vista compatibility and silent installer option.btw the bookmark selection option in your addon maker program does not work, checked it again. My bookmarks are stored in default location of firefox, and no bookmark manager. Everytime i deselect the bookmark option, they still get installed (addon maker ignores that option) maybe it does not work only on vista (did not try it on xp, but i guess it works on xp thats why people have not reported this bug)
please look into this.
Thank you very much for this awesome program and update.
Are you using Vista x64? I have test 100x's in XP. I will test more in Vista.
**** I do know that the script was always downloading the english versions. I have fixed and will be in next update. ****

you sir... are a certifiable BAD-ASS! Many thanks for the absolute best addon ever created!!!
This has got to be the compliment I have received, lately.
Many thanks.

i'm not terribly good at this stuff, but i threw these together
http://www.mediafire.com/?eiztlcynyb2 (files are a little too big to attach to the post)
Sorry. I must have missed this post earlier. I downloaded the icons, but I can't view them. I don't know how to create or modify an icon. I'm going to let this go for right now. Maybe I'll come back to it later.
I have to learn more about how to reshack the exe to change the icons, then maybe we can get your icons into the exe.
Thanks for your help.

This sounds like an awesome tool, I am looking forward to trying it out. Thank you for sharing.
thx
Version 0.45 has been posted. It should be completely compatible with Vista and XP.
-
I also noticed for a brief moment something about an invalid variable having to do with w.bat... but it seemed to complete its tasks without actually stopping or complaining about it further... just happened to notice that when running it a second time to see if maybe I had missed something...
The second error is caused by the first error. I am working on the reg file. The current reg file does not set firefox as default browser in vista like it does in xp. As son as I get the reg file sorted out, I will post an update.
Thx

O.K. upgraded to .442 last night and did a build, but when I choose vanilla firefox it is downloading the ayakawa 3.0.2 pre build at the same time... so I am not sure if it is building a vanilla or an ayakawa build... when it is finished the output addon filename says "Firefox_{ayakawa}_3.0.2pre_addon.7z" so it makes me think it is an ayakawa build... but I don't know, and I'm not sure how to check without actually doing a VMware test with the addon... and I really don't feel like doing that just to find out that I may have to rebuild or somehow trackdown the .43 version of this addon that worked for me. (could you maybe send it to me? or someone?)
thanks for what is the absolute best addon ever made!!! this is truly a work of addon "art" you have here!!!
good catch, I'll try to find out why this is. I'll have a fix soon.
thx

this program is a godsend...kudos to you.
i haven't tested the addon yet, but i trust it works! thanks a bunch!
thanks
-
No am not using no bookmark manager, wierd if your one is working fine. Going to do another clean install and check.
Will let you know
thanks
When you do, tell me where the bookmarks.html file is located in program files\mozilla firefox
thanks

When you use an inf addon during an ui, the inf is automatically copied to %windir%\inf
if I you convert the inf to a silent exe and that during an ui, will the inf be copied to %windir%\inf
I'm not at home and it would take me a couple of hours to find out, using my laptop
tia
***EDIT***
When using the silent installer, the inf is not automatically copied to the %windir%\inf folder. Can the inf be copied by the inf?
I have been trying the copyINF directive, but that changes the name of the inf to OEM*.inf and can't be referenced by the uninstaller.
Anyone have any ideas?
Again, any help is appreciated.
thx
***EDIT***
Adding this to the config.txt for the silent installer seems to work.
RunProgram="hidcon:cmd /C copy /Y firefox.inf %windir%\inf"
Is there any downside to doing it this way?
-
Checked it again. If i deselect the bookmark and create the addon, they still get installed. They are not the default ones, but my own ones.
Thanks
Are you using a bookmarks manager that may be storing a copy of the bookmarks somewhere?
-
Found a minor bug, (dont know for sure if its only me) If i deselect the bookmarks when creating firefox addon, after i install the addon created, i still get the bookmarks. (tested on a clean virtual (vmware) machine)
EDIT:
btw How is your progress on the switchless installer option?
Well, the switchless silent installer is done. But, if the files are still being copied when told not to. That is a problem that I need to look into.
thx
***EDIT***
Are you certain that the file in the addon is your bookmarks.html and not the generic bookmarks.html that comes with firefox?
-
Jonny, I may have missed something when I ran 0.442, but 0.38 made a switchless installer in SVCPACK that I could re-locate for use in WPI. This latest build uses the .cab with .inf; is there an option to have the switchless again?
I'll probably find it before u reply, but if I don't ask I'll never find it.
BTW - Thanks for putting this together. It's a beautiful thing.
I removed the silent install option because only the vanilla and ayakawa versions would install that way. The other 2 would crash. I would like to find out wjy they crash, before adding back in. My guess, is they use additional dll's that the installer is not aware of and that causes the crash. But, I will try to get it back into the next version.
I'll start on that after I complete Vista compatibility. I may just create a new installer and use that for the silent install.
thx
***EDIT***
I just read a post where I can make the inf installer into a silent exe. I will try that first.

I can't locate a list of dirid's specific to the special folders layout for vista.
So, if this string deletes "%userprofile%\Application Data\Mozilla" in WinXP
RUNDLL32 advpack.dll,DelNodeRunDLL32 %16410%\%user_dir%,8
what string would del "%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Mozilla" in vista?
I have tried:
RUNDLL32 advpack.dll,DelNodeRunDLL32 %userprofile%\appdata\Local\%user_dir%,8
This works from cmd prompt, but not from inf.
Anyone have the answer?
thanks for the help
Got it, this worked
RUNDLL32 advpack.dll,DelNodeRunDLL32 %53%\appdata\Local\%user_dir%,8

Thanks, this one works fine :-)
Good to here.
Well done just keeps getting better :thumbsup_anim: :thumbsup_anim: :thumbsup_anim:Many thanks.

that image looks like a fox humping a ball...or is it just me that thinks that?
never looked at it in quite that way, but funny!
-
Anyone have the skills, time and willingness to create a set of icons. I would like to reshack the default icons in firefox.exe with custom icons made from the image in the first post. Any help is appreciated.
-
updated to v0.442
-
As it turned out, addon maker is OK. I used arrows instead of mouse and I got a problem.
I was just going to ask if you were clicking inside the brackets or on the name. But, you got it.
-
believe it or not, I just caught that typo a few minutes ago. But, their is a bug. I think it is with the runhiddenconsole.exe. Sometimes it is failing to call the program properly. I hope to have it figured out soon.
-
I have tried this last one, and doesn't work for me. I can't choose any option, but ayakawa's 3.
could you post a screenshot of the screen where you choose the version of firefox?
thx
-
Version 0.441 is posted. I think that I caught all of the errors. Let me know if not and I will correct as soon as possible.
-
seems to have worked flawlessly.... this is an incredible addon... probably will end up being my favorite ever... heh...
Thanks

hi Jonnyboy,
do u mind checking on the servers in the exe, It seems there are some problems with this e.g Tete 2.14 or 15.
Thank you
done.
The new version of my script will get the newest links automatically, everytime. I will be ready soon. I'm testing it now.

I have just tested in Vista Ultimate and selected no bookmarks and I didn't get the bookmarks.
I don't know why you are getting them. Could you pm me the logs and the inf files?
thanks
