[Release] Iblend V0.3

[fubarshibby]

ha ha ha... >.< i swear i'm not stupid, really...

[chiashing]

For pretty good performance what kind of video card, RAM, processor speed would you need for iBlend? It's a really good program, but slows down my windows on my GeForce-2 64 MB (but it might be that I have shadows, docks, samurize, and other applications running). I was thinking of upgrading the card sometime this summer.

I have a P4 2.0 gig processor with 768 RAM.

cool

chiasing: The problem is that a geforce2 can't accelerate alpha blending on a window above a certain size (I forgot which size exactly, something like 5xx X 6xx) as fast as when it's smaller. Which can cause a problem if you have a bunch of large windows transparent. In addition it can cause a strain on your AGP bus but I'm sure in your case it's more the limit on the video card.

Hi guys, sorry I disapeared for some times but my school projects get me so much time that I don't have for iBlend for the moment, but keep waiting, next release won't disapoint you, I hope

in the mean time, have a nice day

:rant: How dare you have a life outside of programming freeware for people online who you don't even know? I think you should be chain'd to your keyboard, siwu, and not be let free 'til you've turned iBlend into a fully-fledged OS

Reallydoe, no probs mate - take your time and get it right - I'm sure we'd all rather have something good that's late than something early that's rubbish (admittedly iBlend v0.2.9 was great, but y'know what I mean :6)

And, as always, if you want a hand, gimme a shout

[DarkVageta]

**** question WTH is iblend lol

:baby:

[theDeviL]

what does this app do, there is no read me in this app :baby:

smoke: I'm guessing an investment later in a GeForce FX might solve the problem. Any good suggestions for a video card?

[DinoJr]

Could be, but from what I read it might actually be better to go with ATI. I also hate nvidia drivers. I myself think I might go with ATI for my next video card. I have the same kind of card (geforce2 64mb) as you do.

hmm... do i need to install anything else before i can use this? i have been double clicking it but nothing shows up. no tray icon, no instance of the prog running... nothing. <_< someone help me pleeeeeeeeeeeeeze :pokey:

[bolero]

-bolero

[DinoJr]

[DinoJr]

for those who cant get iblend to start up, download this and put it in c:\%windir%\system .

very cool app! thx a lot!

[Stevie BM]

Hey HearshotKidDisaster, what version is that copy of comdlg32.ocx? Mine's 5.1.43.19... Shouldn't it also be in the %windir%/System32 directory?

Regardless, copying my current version to my System directory and re-booting didn't work either.

Also, if you could send me a copy of the file HearshotKidDisaster, that'd be cool... PM me and lemme know if you can?

[DinoJr]

Hmm... i don't see any comdlg32.ocx in my system32 directory.

my version is 6.0.81.69.

i downloaded the comdlg32.ocx because i had problems with jed717ph's Jbox.

and that seems to have fixed a lot of problems with a lot of other apps.

you can download it at the link i provided.

Interesting...I don't have any issues when running iBlend v3.0 (although I will not use it until it is more of a final release-keep up the good work-Siwu!), but I do have an issue with jBox v1.3 not opening up...Hopefully per Jed717 this should all be rectified with jBox 1.4...

However, just for a point of interest...my comdlg32.ocx is located in my %WinDir%/System32 Directory and my version is: 6.0.88.77

Are you both running WinXP SP1 too?

[Stevie BM]

Ok...

That link didn't work, HearshotKidDisaster. Regardless, I found the file elsewhere, and put it into my %windir%system directory. Didn't work.

Put it in my %windir%/system32 directory, works like a charm

[VideoMann]

What's the latest version of iBlend ? Got confused with these posts.

[DinoJr]

the latest ver. is the one on the 1st thread

sorry i didnt test the link

anyways since everyone is saying that comdlg32.ocx is supposed to be in system32, i guess i better copy it there too.

[siwu]

Hi everyone,

the issue with the comdlg32.ocx seems clear because v0.3 uses the Microsoft Common Dialog control (comdlg32.ocx)

but actually I though that VC++ would include it in the exe, or else that ocx would be included in windows

anyway thanks to HearshotKidDisaster for pointing this out

hope this will help

[Goku]

is there any schedule or something on the way with iBlend? :shy:

Thanks

[siwu]

Of course yes but for the moment I'm working on my school projects (a raytracer and a unix shell)

but yes, be sure of some new releases
