Description
My second Dota 2 based theme for Windows 7.
Windows 8 / 8.1 port:
Dota2 Theme Windows 8.1 by Cleodesktop
As a big fan of the game I had to make another Windows theme based on it, this time a more detail-heavy theme, that gives a Dota 2 feel without using any additional applications.
A huge thanks to everyone providing feedback / suggestions and ideas!

Oh sorry, was just away for a few days when the most critical thing happened...
It probably happens if you copy a wrong version of shell32.dll (these files are for Win7 SP1); or mistaking x86 / x64.
Shell32.dll is only responsible for a few control panel backgrounds (and literally a few icons); so if you're confused, just leave that as the original for now.
Anyways, you can restore if by running command prompt (from task manager: file -> New Task (Run...), cmd.exe), and typing:
"sfc /scannow"

Is there any progress/updates relating to Win8 for this? I still check back every day, and would love to use this!

Waiting on replies from 2-3 guys, maybe one of them will have the time to make the port.
I'm also trying to find others while at it.

COOL, but why must install UxStyle? i don't know how to use it!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Patching the uxtheme is needed to let Windows be able to use 3rd party applications, and doing so by using UxStyle / Universal Theme Patcher is free - in comparison to using WindowBlinds (that is also a great software tbh, just not free).
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
wait, can i use "Universal Theme Patcher"?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, Universal Theme Patcher should work just as well - or rather, it's sometimes either / or with UxStyle and UTP.

got it, there is a guide in it, right?

This is better than the guides I could make:

hello awesome work sir
but unfortunately i don't know how to use it
the pics looks great
i'll be really glad if there is a tutorial to how install it ^_^
thanks for being awesome
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hello there!
First of all: thanks!
I might be not too great at making tutorials, but I can summarize in 3 steps how to get it (mostly) applied:
1. Download and install UxStyle (uxstyle.com)
2. Download the .7z archive on this page (right side)
3. Move the contents of the Themes folder to your \Windows\resources\themes folder
From here on you should be able to apply the theme either by double-clicking on the .theme file in the folder, or from the Personalize menu of Windows.

Do you mean the icons, or the general appearance of it?
Could you upload a screenshot of how it looks?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It seems like your ux theme patcher is either faulty, or missing.
Have you installed uxstyle before applying the theme ? (if not, you can do so from uxstyle.com)

DotaBuff got updated thus the stats aren' t tracked anymore ...

Oh, uh, thanks for the heads up, tomorrow I'll probably check up and see if I can find a way around it, though I needed a lot of help to get to the point it worked correctly this far... anyways, thanks again for you help!

I can fix it for you ... it's realy easy, the problem comes from the WebPaser where the RegExp changed in the new update...
Username - still works fine
Wins - RegExp='(?siU)(.*)'
Losses - RegExp='(?siU)(.*)'
WinRate (both) - RegExp='(?siU)
- Win Rate
- (.*)
That should fix it .. one problem : the winrate since it takes in account the abandons now.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
the win and loss doesn't work on mine..
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
To deal with the abandons problem :
[MeasureAbandons]
Measure= Plugin
Plugin= Plugins\WebParser.dll
UpdateRate=600
Url= #DURL#
RegExp='(?siU)(.*)'
StringIndex=1
[MeasureGames]
Measure=calc
Formula=MeasureWins+MeasureLosses+MeasureAbandons
[MeterWinsLosses]
MeasureName=MeasureWins
MeasureName2=MeasureLosses
MeasureName3=MeasureAbandons
Text="%1 Wins / %2 Losses (%3 Abandons)"
; Alternative :
;Text="%1 Wins / %2 Losses / %3 Abandons"

let me know if you need any help for the windows 8 port.. I will do what I can
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I've been asking around people if they are willing to port my Visual Style to 8 / 8.1; if you could do it it would be great; I myself am not very adept at porting 7 themes to 8, only did so once (and it took a hell lot of time to troubleshoot them later), and don't have Windows 8 / 8.1 installed on my PC at the moment.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
one problem ... I have no idea how it is done
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh I see...
Then I might be sending version to be tested sometime later.
