Folks, I am trying to use this customization kit to generate new skin file as CreateSkinFile.exe C:\MySkinFilesSrc C:\CustomizedSkins\setup.isn It opens and closes immediately. There is no scope of reading the error that it displayed. There is no log, no trace on what exactly it is complaining. It is really bad.. Is there any way to trouble shoot this and see what the problem is? The ini file is in order per the customization kit guidelines. But how can a tool be written without any meaningful output? Any help is greatly appreciated. ... View more

Hello, Sorry, i spend several hours looking for this and i still cannot find it. Quick questions: 1. Can you point me to the documentation on the Skin customization kit? I am still working with our account rep to be able to download this for my 2012 professional license. It looks like a long process. 2. The inherited project i have, I see a .isn file. Is this the source that i need to use with the customization kit software? I also have one more file I am sure is incorrectly named called skins.ini which has the following. Is this the input to generate the .skin file? [CODE] [SKINS] VERSION=1 [ALL] TEXTCOLOR=51,51,51 RECTS=1 RECT1=255,255,255 RECT1POS=0,37 [/CODE] 3. When i generate the new skin (the output from this kit), let us say ournewskin.skin. I assume this goes into the IS2012\skins directory? Is this correct? 4. I look at the setup.inf that is generated by the build process, i see Skin=setup.isn. Where do i change this value? I cannot seem to figure out this part. Thanks a lot. I appreciate all the help this forum has provided. I able to get all the pieces together for release and in the process learned a lot about the tool. ... View more

Folks, This might be a simple question. I am stumped on why the custom image does not show up. The code is as follows #define SETUP1_PATH SUPPORTDIR ^ "Step1.bmp" STRING szBmpPath; szBmpPath = SETUP1_PATH; if ( DialogSetInfo(DLG_INFO_ALTIMAGE_VERIFY_BMP, szBmpPath, TRUE) != ISERR_SUCCESS ) then RecordInLogFile( "Fatal error in displaying the image " ); endif; nResult = SdWelcome(szTitle, szMsg); The end result the Welcome screen has no custom image. In the log file i see that this load of the bmp failed. But how do i know why??? Is this something obviously wrong with it? ... View more
