An update on Ultimate-ipod

[Forgoten Dynasty]

well when i first announced it it was here
name my program 250IPH$ - iPodHacking Community
and everyone seemed very intrested in it so me and mizwax decided to put alot of extra work in to it and we are pleased to announce that we will be releasing it with in the next 2 weeks (hopefully lol sorry im going on vacation lol)


sry if i sound stoned out of my mind lol



In case my video is unclear here are some screen shots

^^the folder images will most likely change^^

^^this will most likely stay the same^^

^^each developer will be allowed to put their own image on the left ^^

*DEVELOPERS* any one who has a site on free webs or whatever PM me i have some matters to discuss.

Things that affect release:
1) Im currently ip ban from all ceege servers (dont ask me how) but if im not unban by the time im back from vacation i wont beable to finish my site
2)their are minor bugs in the program i need to get the source code from mizwax to fix them myself
3) the amount of content i have on my site for launch (need a news team, Review team, tutorial team, and some hack developers to post their hacks (or give me permission to post them on my site) and some developers to make program extensions

[Hitchhiker]

what the size of this thing? i mean if it suppose to have all the hacks, themes, games, rockbox and linux, that's gonna be huge...

[SkiLLa]

maybe its a installer and you can choose what you wanna install

I'm thinking that you will have to install themes on your own...

But if all the hacks came with it it wouldn't be that large of a file. maybe like 100 mb or so? it would be big but worth it

Thats the whole point of my site when you origionally download it its going to have nothing you need to download the extensions then install them (they will extract to where the need to be by themselves dont worry)

other wise it would be like 999999 links lol

that wouldnt solve it because the files would still need to be packed in to the install file meaning the install file would still be huge
The only way is for them to be separate

Trust me it would be alot larger then 100 MB if i did it that way

so it basically just an installer?

Yes and no
it does install things such as rockbox and ipodlinux

but its designed to be an all in one program meaning it also has things like ipod wizard (so you can make quick modifications), multiple themes (it will extract and put on your ipod), ect. ect. any thing that is new in the ipod modding world can be easily ported in to it.
if theirs enough intrest maybe down the road we will add even more features to it.
but right now its designed to be 100% noob friendly so next time you have someone come here saying "Can i has this theme onz me ipodz" you can just say download ultimate-ipod manager and find the theme you want and pick it from your themes menu (as simple as that)
Basically i just took all the intelligence required out of ipod modding lol (perfect for the internet IMO)


It will most likely be open source so you can make your own gui and release it if you want to

[Hitchhiker]

is it for windows only? (doesn't really meter for me, i'm currently using windows, but maybe some day...)
how did you make it? C++?
