Homemade COH Screensaver
« on: May 29, 2013, 08:58:12 PM »
I created a home made screensaver using screenshots and wallpapers from the old fansite kits I downloaded ages ago.

I have one version with music and one without. The soundtrack I strung together a bunch of music from the zones extracted from the .pigg files.

I will probably tweak them up from time to time with more shots.

If anyone is interested I made installation files to install on any PC without the need for the original program I used.

The are about 18 megs so too large to email but I can set up a download in my AOL or Comcast acct.

Does this work and is it still available? I'd be interested, does anyone use it?
Please don't send blind requests in games to me, I learned to ignore them in CoX, no offense meant. (this is only here until I can figure out how to put it in my actual profile on here.)

I will have to see where I can host the files, or if it isn't too large I can email it out.
It is an executable file so it has all it needs in one file.
I also keep adding pictures to it as I find more here or around.

If it's less than 2 gb you can use Dropbox, and just post the link here.
I used CIT before they even joined the Titan network! But then I left for a long ol' time, and came back. Now I edit the wiki.

Cool - downloading Dropbox now.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/suqbdjmoteelgen/COH_Album-NOMusic.exe

This is the Dropbox link - I hope it works as I never used it before.

I am working on a version with music / sounds - same pictures, just adding a soundtrack

It appears to have worked. Clicking the link gives me the option to download it or save it to my Dropbox, which is what should happen (I don't particularly have desire for the screensaver (sorry, Star Trek wins) so I haven't actually tested it).

It installs in like 3 seconds - its called vaesaver.

But thanks for the Dropbox info - never heard of it before now.

I guess you could have used Google Drive, too. But they are neat services.

It didn't work for me initially, but then I ran it with compatibility settings turned on and it seemed to work then. I'm on Windows 8, so that's probably why it needed the extra setting.

I have Win 7 and the program I use is from XP lol.

But as long as it works.

I actually get sad when I see some of these screens but recent postings here have given me hope,
