BUG 2.0 released
Tue, 22 Dec 2009
A new version of Bytessence UserbarGenerator has been released
today. This version is a complete remake of the program and it brings in fixes, features
and improvements. Instead of only one graphic file and a single line of text you can now
add any number of image and text layers. Also the program is now extensible so you can add
new effects to it. Please let me know if you find any problems.
Wishing you all a merry Christmas and a happy new year!
BIM 4.30 released
Thu, 5 Nov 2009
After quite some time a new version of Bytessence InstallMaker (4.30) has emerged. This
version brings back some features that were removed on the way (path variables for
all-users) and also adds some new features like extensions / plugins (at the moment
only three are available: RTF Text Editor for editing license and readme files,
Checksum calculator for generating installer fingerprints and Window list for getting
the class name for windows), new translations (Bulgarian, Czech and Turkish), expansion
of OS environment variables, new tasks (copy / delete files) and many others.
Please let me know if you find any bugs.
BIM 4.21 is available
Mon, 13 Jul 2009
A new version of Bytessence InstallMaker is now available for download. This release
does not bring any new features except basic Windows 7 (TM) compatibility and some
minor internal fixes. A more consistent version is in the works but I do not have a definitive
release date for the moment.
Please let me know if you spot any problems with how the program behaves on the
new operating system.
New freeware program released
Fri, 10 Jul 2009
I am proud to announce the release of a new freeware program, Bytessence RegistryCleaner,
a registry cleaning and optimization tool targeted at both novices and experts. BRC is
simple, fast, intuitive and comes in both 32 and 64 bit editions.
Note that BRC is currently in beta stage so it is not recommended to install it
on production machines. Click here to find out more about BRC. As always, translations,
bug reports and suggestions are welcome.
New version of MPxConverter
Sat, 25 April 2009
After a long pause, MPxConverter has been updated to a new version. This release
fixes some annoying bugs and adds more responsiveness and usability to the user
interface (it now uses a normal layout, with a toolbar instead of buttons). In terms
of new features the most important one is that now the conversion list can be saved
to a file and loaded back, making it easy to continue conversion if you had to stop it
before time.
I will need some help from you to update the translations so if you have some
free time you can try and update the old files.
BIM 4.2 released
Mon, 13 April 2009
Version 4.2 of BIM is now ready. All the known bugs have been fixed and I think
this version is the most stable so far. While this is mainly a bug-fix release,
the program also contains some new features like a new command-line compiler
(for automating the setup building process), the ability to choose what files
to be preserved in case they already exist and new translations (many thanks to
all who contributed).
Please let me know if you have any problems with the
new version of BIM.
I wish everyone a Happy Easter!
BIM 4.1 is ready to be served
Mon, 2 March 2009
BIM 4.1 has surfaced today, bringing fixes to some bugs that have slipped in
version 4.0. Many thanks to all who submitted bug reports and suggestions, please keep'em
coming. You can see the full changes made in this version on BIMs page.
The website template suffered changes too. Hopefully the new colors are more easy on the
eyes than the previous ones. The pages validate correctly now in the W3C tests (HTML 4.01
and CSS level 3) - most probably because the code has been written by hand (unlike the old
ones in which I used a WYSIWYG editor to add content).
Please contact me if you find any problems with the
new site.
