hey anyone, how bout a screenshot or two? Paxx, how does it look compared to the LiteStep popup?

In terms of rc files and how many to use there is no one answer. When using Omar's installer (and it is probably the best, certainly the most commonly used distro of litestep) each theme needs to contain a "theme.rc". You can contain all the litestep commands, parameters, etc in that one file. I have many themes that do just that. But if you look at "austerity" as an example, you can have a theme.rc and have it point to many other rc's (usually an rc per module config). Bot
So the wieghted system is in place. Is the system documented anywhere publically yet? Just curious to see how the "wieghted" part works. Thanks
Or get LiteStep

heh That's good news!
But he is a legend, never the less
Well, I don't have it, but if I understand correctly... To use desktop objects you would have to be "running" DesktopX. To use widgets you would have to have DesktopX installed, but not necessarily running.
If this feature is already there...great. If not it would be good to be able to define "groups" of object or widgets and be able to toggle specific groups.
The toggling feature is very handy. It might be handy to be able to custom define which keys are used in triggering the toggling.
Here's a link to the Litestep dev team website: http://www.lsdev.org/news.php As to the question of stability, current releases are very stable. (in my experience anyway) [Message Edited]
Jafo, when you gonna release that?
ooooo.... That is nice
Real old school litestep. A revamped theme I'm working on. [Message Edited]
They way Jafo has them defined, you will want to see desktop2, systray2, and popup2 in the main Litestep dir (C:\Litestep\). The remaining modules should be in the modulesdir (C:\Litestep\Modules\). If your Litestep setup is missing any of those, you will want to download, unzip, and copy the modules into the corresponding directories (as per I mentioned above). Syntax of the modules in the theme.rc is very critical. If the loadmodule line asks for: desktop2.dl
Jafo mentions the fix for that in the comments on that theme. add this to your theme.rc ConfigDir "$ThemeDir$config\" That will fix your problem.
Jafo, what if you only upload .lsz? I'm so confused......
I had to laugh at the messages in the top authors page. Fields that didn't tally or report correctly, refer to a "glitch in the Matrix today"
Truly a mark to be proud of. Well done!
Another stellar job by the Shell Shocked team. A good read!
Great news. A worthy app indeed!
I'm glad to hear that... cause the scripting you were talking about was getting faily complex
LiteStep from 97 ish. Back in the day when customizing it meant finding different tiles for the Wharf, and matching efX skins.
Two lungs I believe, but he did beat cancer. Excellent tour, fully enjoyed watching it this year. Superb effort by Lance and his team!
Course if the ini file won't read evars at all, that won't work.
