Title: Windows 8.1 / visual style Windows 7 Post by: gheepard on September 04, 2013, 08:09:42 am If i update from Windows 7 to Windows 8.1, could i use the visual style i have it now ?
http://www.megafileupload.com/en/file/447537/OSX-theme-rar.html I attached my visual style, here. Thanks in advance Title: Re: Windows 8.1 / visual style Windows 7 Post by: 3am on September 04, 2013, 11:17:41 pm Yeah. Don't see why not. I'm not using 8.1 yet but from what I hear it's not much different from 8.
You'd need: 1) Latest WSB: http://vistastylebuilder.com/forum/index.php?topic=1959.0 2) Theme Patcher: http://www.intowindows.com/download-uxtheme-patcher-for-windows-8-1/ ( I hear this works. Uxstyle isn't updated yet) 3) Glass for your frames etc: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/163570-aero-glass-for-win81-rtm-alpha-1/page-2 4) Start Menu: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/163489-startisback-rc3/ As usual be careful. Always have a restore point. Most of it should port except for DWM stuff etc. I'd recommend porting it manually just to be safe. Have fun and good luck :) Title: Re: Windows 8.1 / visual style Windows 7 Post by: gheepard on September 05, 2013, 09:19:31 am Thanks, 3 am.
If i want to update my WSB 1.5.0.0 to this latest version, do i have to pay ?! Title: Re: Windows 8.1 / visual style Windows 7 Post by: gheepard on September 05, 2013, 10:28:40 am I tried with my OS X visual style from Windows 7 to Windows 8.1 but it doesen't work at all. I installed UltraUXThemePatcher first.
Would you try to apply my attached OS X visual style on your Windows 8 / Windows 8.1, only to check if it's works, please ? Thank you so much Title: Re: Windows 8.1 / visual style Windows 7 Post by: Panda X on September 05, 2013, 12:08:53 pm It works: http://i.cubeupload.com/ziCwEA.png
Start menu is a tad off but this is a 3rd party program so I don't know if the issue is because of that or something else. When importing did you follow these steps? http://vistastylebuilder.com/forum/index.php?topic=1895.0 Also you have to manually copy over the Shell folder from C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\Aero to the location where you saved it. Title: Re: Windows 8.1 / visual style Windows 7 Post by: 3am on September 05, 2013, 01:12:22 pm No you don't have to pay for the beta. Just download it. Your msstyles ported ok to 8 also:
