Legolash2o Posted April 1, 2009 Author Share Posted April 1, 2009 Hey everyone, here's an update of what's been done so far and a little sneak peek of what's in v1.3.0 so far. I am going to use the categories in the first post and tell you what i have done so far in those area.Improved CodingI have made it simpler and tidier when opening external programs like 7z and vLite.Addon IntegratorI have removed the addons that do not work with 1.2.0 from the addons forum, so far i have not done much in this area.TweaksAh, i have added the tweaks forum and the tweaks i have added so far are working and apply to the current installation of windows, it will require little work for me to get it working on WIM images too.ImprovementsQuite a few. I am looking at my program searching for the most littlest things which i think need updating. I am still doing this at the current moment, looking at all the tools and features!I have added the ability to select the option to download files into separate folders depending on the category of the specific file.Also on the Tools Manager you can select "Basic", "Average" or "Advanced" filters, so you don't get confused as easily BasicAverageAdvancedTesting/FixingI have done quite a lot of fixing this morning, found problems with descriptions either not showing up or not showing up properly (fixed) and clicking More Info on some lists just did not work (fixed).GeneralAt the current time i am focusing on Fixes and Improvements, the next release of W7T is definitely going to be a BIG release! unfortunately i will not be releasing any alpha versions of the program to the public. Expect this to be released around the time Windows 7 RC is released.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Change log (so far)*FEATURE: WIM Splitter*FEATURE: WIM Tweaker Tool*Added filter on Tools Manager*Separated Ultimate Extras in Vista SP2 list*FIX: When W7T was maximized, the buttons on Addons and DriverPacks got too big*Allowed resize of main form*Forms are less transparent by default*Service Packs are display at top Vista SP2 list*FIX: "More Info" not working on some lists*Descriptions were not appearing properly or not at all on some items*Vista SP2 list now displays descriptions*Improved code for opening programs*Download files into separate folders (Download Queue)*Improved status information on MSP Extractor*FIX: Item add count when adding files in the MSP Extractor list*FIX: CAB Retriever just did not work*Cleanup tool has been updated------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I will be keeping this topic up-to-date as possible, so stay tuned!

Jatin Beniwal Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Wim Splitter ?Is this tool to make windows dvd to convert them to CD.Releases with Windows 7 RC means between 11-16 May that is expected date of RC.Waiting............ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legolash2o Posted April 1, 2009 Author Share Posted April 1, 2009 WIM Splitter, split your images into multiple swm files for so you can use CDs. Yep I know RC is planned for May which is a long way away, but i am planning on doing a lot of work to it, mostly fixes and improvements. When the Win 7 RC comes out i will have hoped to have done WIM Tweaker Tool, ISO Maker, a lot of code enhancements. All the stuff in the change log above was done just this morning alone.I may release it earlier than May depending on if i feel that its ready as the last few releases have been a bit buggy because i never did any testing so i will be doing quite alot for this release.Any questions?

Legolash2o Posted April 4, 2009 Author Share Posted April 4, 2009 Hello again, time for some more news!Improved CodingHaven't really done much in this area, nothing much to report. Just did a tiny amount of code cleanup. I and also the alpha testers have noticed pretty much instant image mounting in build 7068 so that's good!Addon IntegratorThe Addon Integrator now lets you specify which build the addon is for, this is really useful for if you patch system files which and you don't want your users using a patch for 7057 on build 7068 which may damage the system.The Addon Integrator now also lets you specify a website within the tasks.txt so when users double click the addon whilst it is in the list, it will open the website using the default browser.TweaksAdded lots more tweaks have been added, and some general improvements in that area.ImprovementsDone quite a lot of improvements. *Double clicking items in lists now downloads them*Addon Integrator now lets you specify website in addons*Addon Integrator now lets you make build specific addons*If there is only one image to choose from it will automatically highlight it*Driver Integrator will not be shown if W7T does not detect Dism.exe in system32Testing/FixingSome fixes too.*FIX: Main form disappears clicking cancel when choosing download location*FIX: Some images did not work correctly with WIM Manager*FIX: Driver Integrator now integrates correctly*FIX: Item add count when adding files in the MSU to CAB ConverterGeneralW7T is just getting better and better, its certainly stable! Its running smooth and cool Im still on the hunt for bugs even small bugs. Don't forget there is still 3 alpha testers places remaining.Oh, sometimes the WIM Manager did not list images i.e. Vista SP2 pre-integrated, apparently its working now due to a big improvement in the way the WIM Manager gets values from the WIMChange Log-----------------------------------------------------------------------*FEATURE: WIM Splitter*FEATURE: WIM Tweaker Tool (currently hidden)*FIX: Main form disappears clicking cancel when choosing download location*FIX: Some images did not work correctly with WIM Manager*FIX: Driver Integrator now integrates correctly*FIX: When W7T was maximized, the buttons on Addons and DriverPacks got too big*FIX: "More Info" not working on some lists*FIX: Item add count when adding files in the MSP Extractor list*FIX: Item add count when adding files in the MSU to CAB Converter*FIX: CAB Retriever just did not work*FIX: Vista SP2 list now displays descriptions*Double clicking items in lists now downloads them*Addon Integrator now lets you specify website in addons*Addon Integrator now lets you make build specific addons*If there is only one image to choose from it will automatically highlight it*Driver Integrator will not be shown if W7T does not detect Dism.exe in system32*Added filter on Tools Manager*Separated Ultimate Extras in Vista SP2 list*Allowed resize of main form*Forms are less transparent by default*Service Packs are display at top Vista SP2 list*Descriptions were not appearing properly or not at all on some items*Improved code for opening programs*Download files into separate folders (Download Queue)*Improved status information on MSP Extractor*Cleanup tool has been updatedUpdateAll settings are saved in a file so all your changes will not be saved and W7T is now portable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legolash2o Posted April 5, 2009 Author Share Posted April 5, 2009 Hello again, I have some great news for you! Today i announce to you 4 new tools:WIM Tweaker (now works with the actual wim)OS Tweaker (tweaks current OS)ISO Maker Addon Maker, yes you read correctly! Improved CodingI've done a bit of improvements to code, the one you would most probably notice is when adding lots of files to the Addon Integrator, before it just hanged until it was completed, but now you see each one being added as well as telling you which one is it working on and how many is left to do. Adding Addons to the list is now a lot more smoother!Addon IntegratorAs above, the Addon Maker has been completed and... fully working (it was very simple really), there are some useful shortcuts like when adding a file to the Copy File list, it will ask you where these files need to go and if its a Start Menu item you can just simply type in %StartMenu%.Addon Integrator now adds things to the list a lot quicker as mentioned above. TweaksOS Tweaker and WIM Tweaker have been finished and just need to add more tweaks, they are both the same program except that there is a check (auto) if its going to the WIM or not and will apply the tweaks as necessary.ImprovementsJust checkout the change logTesting/FixingThere was one annoying bug where you can keep adding Addons from the download list to the download queue (fixed).GeneralW7T 0.1.3 is amazing, fast (with build 7068 it instantly mounts images), and best of all stable. I would like to thank my Alpha Testers for doing a brilliant job, very also agree that it is stable Public AlphaW7T is now at the stage where if anyone wants to test the latest, they can do. Just send me a PM and i will provide you will a link to the download.
