2.0 it basically an upgrade for the NET framework, so all your programs should still work

Same has me!!! and the name of some stuff are all mixed up with messages!!! WTF???


OK, the TOPMENU Generator is a screw up... It doesn't change the icons.. always writes to the topmenu_plugin.rco the same files, even if you select wichever bitmaps...

So, is there any other topmenu generator?

also... has I stated, the names appear switched (with messages???)

I think this has to do also with this app.. it creates a topmenu_plugin.rco version of FW 2.60 or something... Or is it has to do with beeing encrypted or decrypted?

Help!
Cheers.

OK, with further investigation, I can assume that this works... here's the following...

first, the program DOES use your costum icons, but you must rename them properly, (1.bmp, 2.bmp, 3.bmp, 4.bmp, 5.bmp and 6.bmp), else the program wont use your costum icons.

Next, about the message switches...

In the English language, the names are displayed correctly, (with some icons incorrect beeing that it's being use the 2.50 plugin file and NOT the 3.03 one).

In some languages the names got switched with some messages (which in my case, it's portuguese...)

So... If you use this on a 3.03 OE-B FW, it works, but beware that it may have some cons!

BTW... anyone can say how to make these apps work correctly in a plugin from a FW 3.03 ???

I hope i made myself clear in this post...


If im not mistaken, there isn't a 2.50 up topmenu_plugin.rco decrypted...

I can confirm that it works with 3.03 OE-B, but I do not like my results --

is there a way to revert back to my previous icons?
