Latest SysMetrix Issue

May 23, 2004 9:30 AM from

I just got the latest SysMetrix, v.3.03, and some of the skins I downloaded, give me the following message:

"The theme was saved with a newer version of SysMetrix. Therefor, it's possible that not all of the theme's functionality will be available. You may want to the 'SysMetrix Updates' from the right click menu to find out more about the latest available version."

That doesn't make any sense, seeing how I just downloaded the latest version, any help would be great.

Thnx

I am pretty sure that this is a bug in this build. It is a development build and sometimes little annoyances like this popup. I've gotten the same message on a few skins, and just ignored it, and the skins worked just as they were intended. Have you actually had any problems loading the theme after you get this message?

Ya, it wont even load them for me, and then it displaces the text in the skin I was currently using, so I have to reload the skin after.

In that case, I would suggest saving your themes to a temporary folder in my documents or somewhere, and then try completely uninstalling and then reinstalling Sysmetrix 3.03. What you're describing should not be happening, so I think something got corrupted during the install. Good luck, and let us know how it turns out, please.

Ok, I just unistalled SysMetrix, and then reinstalled it, I then re downloaded the skin, and it still wont work, maybe you could try downloading the skin, and see if it works for you, because I was looking at the comments and it was working fine for those people. The skin is called: Genesis and the author is: D3StRoY.

I get the newer build message - but haven't had any difficulties loading the skins - just sort of got to shrug it off for now - the xymantix site is up front that this is an untested developmental build.

Go into Configuration Options and in the preference section - Less-Used Options and turn off "Warn on load of newer theme".
