BananaHammock Posted July 28, 2004 Author Share Posted July 28, 2004 As for the "Glass Borders", I've been able to make this work on a GeForce4 mx440 a few days ago, so this is a little bit old news.DWM effects with Glass Borders But for the rest of it, nice work. :) Getting the glass borders to work in 4074 on an MX440 is different because of the UCE and the way DWM works in that build. The mesh files *need* a DX 9 GPU unless you can get them to work on your MX440 as well which I would like to hear about. Please inform us if you can get the glass object with wind.jpg to work with an MX440.

Nope. As banana said, try getting the glass meshes to work on that gf4mx440 :).

DrunkenMaster Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 I think MS is onto something with this way of visually organizing files. I would <B>LOVE</B> to be able to use such a system built into the OS. Doing research in University, the amounts of documents and organization become overcoming sometimes.

Menge Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 from what i saw inside the rar, it's just random files that show that aero is being implemented and give SOME idea of what's it gonna be like. that's it.

eminem213486 Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 jesus christ you guys, this is so easy, open up the files mess around a bit. dont make someone (like me) have to show you what ot do with them. extract all files to a folder then go into the GLASS folder click on effectedit.exe program should open, go to file-open and choose any of those .fx files the last one is the best get your mouse to move the 3d object after your done playin around and mesmerizing them, go to the meshfolder and do basically the same thing. open up the files and mess around. about the skyevnmap, i have seen it somehwere else and it used to work with xp. but on this rar that they released it doesnt work. in xp OR longhorn 4074. neither does the 3d screensaver. i guess im doing something wrong there. someone could elaborate i guess. and to the question that was asked ealier. this works in XP and LOnghorn. just a lil more tricky to work in longhorn (lower FPS and "open" issues.) -eminem- Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/196127-old-longhorn-glass-findings/page/2/#findComment-584256716 Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerry Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 it fills my right click menu with junk that I dont want there.STV There is an option called "integrate into shell" during installation. Just uncheck it if you are bothered by Winrar using up some space on the right click menu.
