Title: X86 bugs in the visual style
Post by: Vzdorjii on April 21, 2010, 12:07:31 pm
Hey guys.
I was so happy with publishing my visual style. Also it seems that x86 users encounter some bugs with it.

Look at these screenshots :

The adress bar would be like the searchbox

Blank parts...

What did i do wrong ?

Wish I could help but I'm on x64.

Strange that your msstyles would work on one but not the other. Now you've given me something new to worry about!

btw...didn't know you were Chinese ;)

I don,t understand,

 but after a quick google search I,ve found that some are 64-32bit and some aren,t

  some body must know why this happens.  I downloaded a 64 -32 bit compatible theme ran it on difference tool with yours and nothing looked any different.Sorry I can,t help

That's only for system files not msstyles. Msstyles should work the same whether x64 or x86.

Weird why so many people are having trouble with the msstyles on x86 with this theme. Doesn't make sense.

I had a similar "white bug" in one of my themes. The bug appeared also only on x86 machines.
Fortunately, after an update the bug was gone. Never knew what I changed to get rid of that though...sry

I wonder if everybody running x86 has problems or only some people. And how they differ.

it appears sometimes, when importing some graphics with "Shift-Hold" in while building the theme..
or sometimes VSB doesn't render standard imported images correctly..

try to reimport the images again, mostly then it works..
i've experienced this bug several times for blank image-parts..

Why does this happen on x86 and not x64?

Why does this happen on x86 and not x64?

i believe to remember, Panda-X had this "bug" when making M7R1 for Vista, only then x86 worked fine and X64 had some problems..

we even found out that some of them appear on only some computers..
he has a fade-out effect on his actual project, which doesn't work correctly on my system.. (both x64)

maybe Graphic-Driver issues..

I did exactly the same thing , but using Restorator , I changed some items and made a couple blank Png's and got the white images. I went back into WSB and had to edit each file and it all worked perfect again. Dont know what happened really ?

Sorry i cant be any more help  :(

Win7 ultimate X86. If you want me to test let me know.
