Hurmoth Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 are the trunk builds actually worth using, or are there too many annoying bugs? 585098763[/snapback] The trunk builds from bangbang023 are much better then 1.0 Final in my opinion ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/191297-fx-bangbang023-07-01-30-trunkwin32o2gal/page/18/#findComment-585101216 Share on other sites More sharing options...
steamfish81 Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Is it just me, or is SwitchProxy extension broken for the latest Trunk build? It installed OK, but cannot add any proxies... I tried installing from extensionmirror and the author's homepage...

bangbang023 Veteran Posted December 15, 2004 Author Veteran Share Posted December 15, 2004 you probably don't have a CPU that supports SSE2. 12/15 is up Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/191297-fx-bangbang023-07-01-30-trunkwin32o2gal/page/18/#findComment-585105597 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue` Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 Sorry for the dumb question, but am i ok just installing this over the top of my already installed Firefox 1.0? Also, when u say SSE2, thats all AMD XP processors and newer right? Thnx in advance :unsure: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/191297-fx-bangbang023-07-01-30-trunkwin32o2gal/page/18/#findComment-585108408 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bangbang023 Veteran Posted December 16, 2004 Author Veteran Share Posted December 16, 2004 The newer AXP's support SSE2, I believe. You should be ok in installing it over, at this point.

Yes. That said, 1.0 Final couldn't read some changes that 1.0+ made to the profile and therefore didn't work for me during the initial testing.

IceDogg Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 Thanks bangbang023, will you let us know when it works side by side? I would like to run your newer builds, but I want to have an offical release too, just in case.

Michael_C Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 Running smoothly and render much more quickly than 1.0 final. 585101072[/snapback] You're not wrong there, I just downloaded the official nightly(CPU doesn't support SSE2) and it renders much quicker than 1.0 Final.

bangbang023 Veteran Posted December 16, 2004 Author Veteran Share Posted December 16, 2004 I won't know when they run side by side as I have ditched 1.0 as soon as my builds started working again. 12/16 is up Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/191297-fx-bangbang023-07-01-30-trunkwin32o2gal/page/18/#findComment-585110979 Share on other sites More sharing options...

PGHammer Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 Thnx for that post man, would of never tried it if it wernt for you, and its so much better than the final :) 585111287[/snapback] It's decidedly quicker than 1.0 final (P4 with HT, so it supports SSE2) but then so is the Netscape prototype (*Firescape*). Apparently you and the source of the prototype are doing something that the Firefox dev team didn't do with Firefox 1.0; otherwise, where is all the extra speed coming from?

topher1078 Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 (edited) When installing your builds over 1.0 final, how much cleaning do I need to do before hand? Can I just uninstall 1.0 final, or do I need to manually go in a delete all of the profiles folders, etc? Thanks EDIT - I just deleted everything for a fresh start and installed your version. It's very speedy but why are some of the graphical elements different? The Firefox icon, for starters, but also the little puzzle piece which appears when there are components to intall on a web page (like flash). I'm a huge fan of the normal firefox graphical look - is there a way to either make your builds to look the same, or, more likely, how can I edit them myself?

Michael_C Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 (edited) I just backed up my profile and installed over 1.0 final and it worked great, the icon was probably changed by bangbang since the official nightlies have the normal one. The puzzle icon has been there for as long as I can remember. Edit- Optimized builds are not allowed to use the official artwork, thats why it is different. :) Edited December 17, 2004 by flightmike1 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/191297-fx-bangbang023-07-01-30-trunkwin32o2gal/page/18/#findComment-585117270 Share on other sites More sharing options...
topher1078 Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 (edited) Thanks for the answer - all clear now. Is there anyway to change it to the official artwork myself, or is that a no-no?

IceDogg Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 I have it installed now..and you guys are right the page rendering is awesome. I did lose some extensions though. I lost spellbound for one (one I need badly), but it was well worth it for the added speed. And spellbound will work with it soon, just the author has to figure out how to fix it and still have it work on 1.0. Thanks bangbang023, awesome builds. Please excuse any spelling mistakes till spellbound is working again :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/191297-fx-bangbang023-07-01-30-trunkwin32o2gal/page/18/#findComment-585117729 Share on other sites More sharing options...
