  7. How to make a INF Theme AddOn Explained AddOn Tools: Reg2Inf Ricks_Reg2Inf_AddOn_v0.37.7z FGCBA Ricks_FGCBA_SendTo_AddOn_v0.897.7z Notepad2 Website Ill begin with a step by step tutorial with this VistaBasicTheme.7z Theme mod Start by extracting and studdying the layout of the Theme Pack and where the files need to go in Windows File Destination Aurora.jpg -> %WinDir%\Web\Wallpaper Basic.theme -> %WinDir%\Resources\Themes Basic.msstyles -> %WinDir%\Resources\Themes\Basic Shellstyle.dll -> %WinDir%\Resources\Themes\Basic\Shell\NormalColor Now to create an INF file that will copy the files to the specific places 1a- Open Notepad2 and lets start by creating a section called [Version] Signature="$Windows NT$" $Windows NT$ means that the following files can ONLY be installed on NT, 2000 and XP ($CHICAGO$ is used for ALL Platforms 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000 & XP) 2a- Now go to File->Save As... and save the file as Basic.inf and you will now see some colors appear in your Notepad2 text editor NOTE: the INF filename must be 8.3 filename compatible, that means 8 letters for the filename and 3 letters for the extension 3a- Go back to the INF file and now add another section [Optional Components] and under that put the name of your project i.e. Basic [Optional Components] Basic 4a- Now were going to create a section with the EXACT same name that is under [Optional Components], in this case its Basic so we make a [basic] section and Add the following below it: OptionDesc= for Option Description, Tip= for the InfoTip, Modes=0,1,2,3 (I don't know what this is for) and CopyFiles= for the different directories to copy to [Basic] OptionDesc = "Basic" Tip = "Vista Basic Theme" Modes = 0,1,2,3 CopyFiles = Now we can begin... Lets start with the copy instructions for the Basic.theme file: 1b- Create a custom section with whatever tittle you wish... Lets use [Theme.File] and add the Basic.theme theme file to it 2b- Now Add Theme.File to CopyFiles= in your INF file under [basic] 3b- Create a NEW section named [DestinationDirs] and add Theme.File equals (=) and the destination you wish to extract and install the file to. In this case look in the OSR PDF Guide and on the last pages you will find the Value Number for %WinDir%\Resources (16440) Note: 16440 is equal to %WinDir%\Resources, so every file listed under the [Theme.File] secction (in this case only Basic.theme) will get copied to X:\Windows\Resources then to the Themes sub-folder Lets do the same for Basic.msstyles: 1c- Make up another custom section name for the msstyle file i.e. [style.File] and now add Basic.msstyles under it 2c- Now add it to CopyFiles= after Theme.File (Separate each CopyFiles entrie with a Comma <,>) 3c- Now add it to [DestinationDirs] (dont forget to add the sub-folders after 16440) Now the ShellStyle.dll copy instructions: 1d- Again Create a custom section of your choice i.e. [shell.File] and add Shellstyle.dll file under it 2d- Add it to CopyFiles= 3d- And DestinationDirs (it needs to go in X:WINDOWS\Resources\Themes\Themes\Basic\Shell\NormalColor) NOW the Aurora.jpg Wallpaper for the Theme: 1e- Create another custom section i.e. [Wall.File] and add Aurora.jpg under it 2e- Do the same to CopyFiles as before 3e- Add it to [DestinationDirs] (needs to go in X:WINDOWS\Web\Wallpaper) TIP: Look in the OSR PDF Guide and locate the nearest location or folder number to X:\WINDOWS\Web\Wallpaper In this case we find the number 10 which equals %WinDir% which is the same as X:\WINDOWS now simply add "\Web\Wallpaper" (including quotes) after the destination folder number 10 or WINDOWS Almost finished: 1f- Create a new folder named Basic on your desktop and gather/copy ALL the Theme files into it Aurora.jpg Basic.msstyles Basic.theme Shellstyle.dll 2f- Cab Archive them together. I use TUGZip to make my CAB files by highlighting all the files, then Right Click and Add To Basic.cab Tip: If you have CabTool (included in Kels and Ryans Addon Packs) Right Click the Basic folder then Send To->CabTool and it will create a Cabinet file named Basic.cab with all the theme files in it TugZip example CabTool example 3f- In the inf make a NEW Required Secction called [sourceDisksFiles] and add ALL the files in your Cab file to it = 1 4f- In the inf make another NEW Required Section named [sourceDisksNames.x86] and add this to tell the INF file that the files are located in Basic.cab in the i386 folder in your XP CD The final result is a Basic.inf file that looks similar the following: [Version] Signature="$Windows NT$" [Optional Components] Basic [DefaultInstall] OptionDesc = "Basic" Tip = "Vista Basic Theme" Modes = 0,1,2,3 CopyFiles = Theme.File,Style.File,Shell.File,Wall.File [Basic] OptionDesc = "Basic" Tip = "Vista Basic Theme" Modes = 0,1,2,3 CopyFiles = Theme.File,Style.File,Shell.File,Wall.File [SourceDisksNames.x86] 1="Vista Basic Theme","Basic.cab",,"i386" [DestinationDirs] Theme.File = 16440,"Themes" Style.File = 16440,"Themes\Basic" Shell.File = 16440,"Themes\Basic\Shell\NormalColor" Wall.File = 10,"Web\Wallpaper" [SourceDisksFiles] Aurora.jpg = 1 Basic.msstyles = 1 Basic.theme = 1 Shellstyle.dll = 1 [Theme.File] Basic.theme [Style.File] Basic.msstyles [Shell.File] Shellstyle.dll [Wall.File] Aurora.jpg Tip: I added a [DefaultInstall] section (optional) with the same exact stuff as under Basic for testing purposes... You can Right Click on Basic.inf and Select install then browse to Basic.cab and select then OK and your theme should get installed THATS IT for the INF and now for the Entries*.ini file ... 1g- Open Notepad2 and paste this into it: [general] builddate=2007/xx/xx description= language= title= version= website= [sysoc] Basic=ocgen.dll,OcEntry,Basic.inf,HIDE,7 [dosnet_files] d1,Basic.cab d1,Basic.inf [txtsetup_files] Basic.cab = 100,,,,,,_x,,3,3 Basic.inf = 100,,,,,,,20,0,0 [i386_compress] rvmtemp\extracted\Basic.inf [HexEdit] I386\uxtheme.dll|6.0.2900.2180|113178|83EC1C568D4DE4|33C0C9C2040090 I386\uxtheme.dll|6.0.2900.2523|104714|83EC1C568D4DE4|33C0C9C2040090 I386\uxtheme.dll|6.0.2900.2845|104746|83EC1C568D4DE4|33C0C9C2040090 2g- Add the Title, Build Date, Version Number etc. then Save As... Entries_Basic.ini 3g- Now Zip, Rar, Cab or 7zip these files together: Entries_Basic.ini, Basic.cab and Basic.inf to create your finalized AddOn Example Basic AddOn Entries.ini file explained: The HIDE command in "=ocgen.dll,OcEntry,Whatever.inf,HIDE,7" will not hide this Addon from the "Add Remove Windows Components" unless it has the exact same name as whatever is under [Optional Components] in the INF example: Entries_Basic.ini Basic.inf The following section (Optional) will instruct nLite or the RVM Integrator to cab Compress your Addons INF install file, from Whatever.inf to WHATEVER.IN_ and add it to the i386 folder (you can manually cab it to .IN_ and omit this section) [i386_compress] rvmtemp\extracted\Whatever.inf Te following will only work for the RVM Integrator and it will automatically patch the UXTHEME.DLL file (does not affect nLite users) [HexEdit] I386\uxtheme.dll|6.0.2900.2180|113178|83EC1C568D4DE4|33C0C9C2040090 I386\uxtheme.dll|6.0.2900.2523|104714|83EC1C568D4DE4|33C0C9C2040090 I386\uxtheme.dll|6.0.2900.2845|104746|83EC1C568D4DE4|33C0C9C2040090
