Iv got them all (MS Visual Basic DLLs).
All those modules work very well. The problem appears when Im trying to recycle or change the theme.

I'm in the same boat as "godmode". I've got all the dll's, but I still will get these errors.

Simple question, how do I tell which installer I've got?

I know Omar's installer makes a credit's text in C:\LiteStep\setup.

Posted by member 46468 on 2007-02-06 17:21:26 link

well, lookie there. Omar's got his name in my computer. (Should probably look at updating....)

Well, can't update... already got the most recent build, I think. 17/Dec/2005. two thousand FIVE? yep. Oh-five.

Thank you, kind sir

There are some issues on XP with modules that were coded in Delphi, e.g., lsslider, lsbox, etc. Basically anything coded by blkhawk. ;)

Try removing those modules from your theme temporarily and see if that eliminates the problem. If it does, then start searching for non-Delphi replacements.

@Cell27: The build I'm running is from 2007-01-23.

You should update your build of litestep by downloading and killing litestep and placing the contents of the zip in your litestep folder overwriting the originals...

Immortal: The link you gave points to the exact same version I'm running now - 17 Dec 2005.

xcal: How's your stability? Never mind that, how stable is that version of Litestep? ;-)

Posted by member 212670 on 2007-02-07 10:50:32 link

Eh? It's perfectly stable. I'm more worried about modules when it comes to stability, not the core.

Live on the edge, burn on the edge...
Using theme "Spot glass oby" found at http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/47838878/.
Updated to the build dated 2007-01-23. Rebooted this AM, got this error:
The procedure entry point ?configure@PaintTexture@@QAEHPBDOPBV1@h@z could not be located in the dynamic link library xPaintClass-1.0.dll.
in a dialog box titled, "Litestep Tray manager: litestep.exe - Entry Point Not Found".

xPaintClass is located in C:\Litestep AND in C:\Litestep\Modules. After that, I get
Error: Could not locate module. Please check your configuration
in a dialog box titled, "C:\LiteStep\modules\xtray-2.0.dll" Now of course, my systray doesn't exist.

Suggestions?

That's what I was alluding to before. Modules concern me more.

You're probably running the wrong version of xpaintclass. To make things more fun (compatible?), the older versions of xPaintClass are also named 1.0!

To fix the problem, first try removing the xpaintclass dll from your \litestep\modules folder (I'm assuming you put it there unless you've tried the latest version?) and your \litestep\modules\archive folder. Then, add this to the theme.rc of the theme:

*NetLoadModule xpaintclass-1.0

You can (and might have to?) remove the one in the \Litestep root (although, some previously released themes may want it there unless you add *NetLoadModule xpaintclass-1.0 to them too).

I'm not 100% sure if that'll work, since I'm not totally sure if the newer NLM xpaintclass is compatible with the older xpc modules. I think it should be, though.

Followed your instructions, rebooted, same issue.
I removed xPaintClass from the litestep folder, added the "*NetLoadModule" statement to both this current theme and Reluna2. Reluna2 loaded without any complaints, everything seemed to work. Maybe I'll try re-loading the "Spot Glass Oby" (aka, Decadence) theme...

Posted by member 32550 on 2007-02-10 03:17:20 link

If you get this Error, then either xPaintClass-1.0 is an old RC version (already excluded by your testing) or the Module, which is mentioned (xTray), is an old RC version.
So you just have to uninstall the Module (!NetUnInstallModule xTray-2.0) and then download the current version (!NetInstallModule xTray-2.0).

This should work :)

Suppose I should get rid of (zip out of the way) ALL my modules and have them ALL get re-loaded?

Posted by member 32550 on 2007-02-12 11:50:38 link

No, you must only (zip out of the way) the module which is mentioned in the error message.
And calling !NetUnInstallModule xTray-2.0 is normally enough.

Posted by member 46468 on 2007-02-12 12:00:13 link

Yay!! I got my systray back!

so, this leads to the next question... how does one tell if the module they're using is "an old RC version"? Is there a site that tells when modules are updated (RC = "release candidate" ?)

I checked the Wiki docs http://www.xdocs.ls-universe.info/pie.php?xTray2 but there's nothing in there about latest updates?
