Update: The latest version released here:
http://www.winmatrix...showtopic=23857

Vista Transformation Pack 8 will transform your Windows user interface to ultimate Windows Vista alike looks that everyone will never notice it’s the same old Windows XP.

Features

Vista Transformation Pack will replace many of the resources in Windows XP/Windows Server 2003. It can change such things as:
* Boot screen
* Welcome Screen / Logon Screen
* New msstyles files (visual styles)
* New desktop and file icons
* New toolbar icons
* Progress Dialogs
* Sounds scheme
* System Tray icons
* New Wallpapers
* Windows Media Player Skins
* And much more



This version is mainly the same to previous ones except “Aero Glass without WindowBlinds” and “WinFlip” featured with overall improvements such as:

-Fixed crappy hotfix issue, no more workaround trick required to avoid that
-Ability to save transforming information for later uses and unattended transformation
-Ability to detect the targeted machine and give suggested setup configuration
-Some transformation procedures refinements you should look at like pre-configure on first run, removed obsolete dialogs and msn skin, etc.
-New 3rd-party apps and new version of existing apps

Download:
Server 1 | Server 2 | Server 3 | Server 4 | Server 5

Update: Version 8.0.1
-Fixed pre-configuration specifications to improve performance (Removed unstable applications from list)
-Fixed TrueTransparency's stability (some settings in skin causing input hook problems)
-Fixed Visualtooltip configuration when user accidently deletes the configuration files in there
-Removed backup files' status and put CPU model instead (obsolete checking)
-Updated system files' status report to "Out of sync" and repairing system files information
-Updated user account configuration system for more subtle performance

Download 8.0 to 8.0.1 Patch:
Server 1 | Server 2 | Server 3

Windows X - The home of VTP!

There was no need for a second topic, even if yours is much better looking. Original topic beat you by over a half hour

I consider this topic as the original one. The other topic is basically pure spam since it lacks information

Sweet! So I can uninstall windowblinds now??

Thanks for the heads up!

[ThunderROM]

For those who don't have WindowBlinds, you can use TrueTransparency or FastAero for the transparent windows borders.

It actually looks pretty good, but after I install it am I able to uninstall it?

[felixml]

does NOT install, just the same issues as 7.0 had on this and my other PCs.

Lol, I know this is better .

There's a bug with the Taskbar Toolbars, "Links" is now Windows Media Player and "Language bar" is Links. "The Language Bar" seems to be what it is still.



...as seen from the screenshot, the (right-click) menu hasn't been modified (yet) - to look like Vista's & that's a damn shame. Lots of improvement though; But, like far from perfect still

Stuff that's been there in the previous version is still there to piss you off, icon highlight color is still some ugly dark blue, the Firefox Bookmark Toolbar still becomes fat, etc.

I would never install this, after I installed VTP7 on my XP - it got slow - comparable to vista!
And when I decided to test on a VM - I sacrificed XP pro SP2 - and it was much slower after the install. It's much better to do vista customization manually I think...

this is crap it ruined my machine Do Not Install

Before installing, start System Restore %SystemRoot%\system32\restore\rstrui.exe (make sure it's enabled on your system drive); Name the Restore Point whatever you want. If something goes wrong, restore from safe mode (Boot with F8).



ps.

VTP is not as bad as you all are stating. I used it a lot when I was a beginner and never had any single problem. Now I customize my OS myself instead of using any transformation pack.

I think that the best VTP ever released is Ver. 6. Still using it on my system. (:
