CES animated theme not......animating?
It loads just fine, but what exactly is supposed to be animated about it? I notice nothing different about it compared to other themes, and certainly nothing moving. Is it not working properly?

I just stared at it for a minute straight and saw nothing. What am I looking for? -
Inappropriate?When you loaded the CES 09 theme, Make sure you select "NO" when it asks if you want to use the texture that came with the theme. Then try to apply and restart Bumptop to make sure it loads the theme and the widget correctly.
Then the widget will see the theme load and run properly.
Let me know as soon as it works. :)

It never asks me any questions. Restarting BumpTop doesn't change anything. -
Same here. -
Inappropriate?What Jon meant to say is that you need to use your desktop background within the theme settings in BumpTop. Then when you hit apply if it brings up a dialog, hit "NO" and then follow Jon's instructions from there.
-
Inappropriate?Alright, so I'm supposed to tell it to use my windows desktop background, and it will then pop up with a question?
Still nothing. It doesn't pop up with any dialogue when clicking the option to use my background, or apply, or OK. All that seemed to do is exactly what I told it: to use my desktop background as the floor. Restarting did nothing. Switching it back to the theme's back ground makes it look just like it did before: loaded fine, but no animation. -
Same here -
Inappropriate?can you post the file structure for your B2AT.widget? And where it is located?
Does the theme load correctly? Go to the Bumptop theme settings and click the folder to the right of the dropdown menu. Does the \Default folder have another folder named "BG ani"?
Let me know
-
I don't get the Wall Lighting option!!! -
Inappropriate?In order of questions asked:
What exactly do you mean by posting the file structure?
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Bump Technologies, Inc\BumpTop\widgets\B2AT.widget\
The theme loads fine from what I see. There are no errors, and it loads the floor, walls, etc.
The default folder does contain "BG ani"
When I do that on my screen, it loads my windows desktop background, instead of the one from the theme. If I remove that checkmark, it loads the background from the theme, but it doesn't animate. -
Inappropriate?What does it do when you click on the B2AT icon on the desktop, If there is one?
If there isn't you should copy your \widgets dir to C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name\Application Data\Bump Technologies, Inc\BumpTop\
not Administrator
It could help. Sometimes Bumptop acts wierd when Multiple windows accounts are being used. -
Inappropriate?The icon does appear, but nothing happens when I click or double click it.
"Administrator" is the name of the user account, and its the only account on this machine. -
Inappropriate?Try to download the Xmas theme we posted on the B2AT download page. That has a more dramatic change and it drops presents to the desktop if it is loaded correctly.
-
Inappropriate?Alright, gave it a shot. Same story as the other theme, although this time, it added three PNGs to my desktop that look like presents.
-
Inappropriate?GREAT!! So it is running properly. It is being blocked from assigning the Deskto background though. Is there any program running that might not let this change the desktop bg? Do you use Dreamscapes or Deskscapes? or something else that influence the Desktop?
-
Inappropriate?No, nothing like that. Bumptop is the only program I'm running that customizes the desktop at all.
-
Inappropriate?try to browse to a simple picture and assign it as the Desktop BG by right clicking it, Does the BG change back to the theme assigned one? or does it stick to what you assign it.
-
Inappropriate?No change at all. Closing BumpTop reveals the new background.
-
Inappropriate?when you reload Bumptop does it show the BG as the floor or the Xmas one?
-
Inappropriate?Ah wait, actually, it does change to the new one. It just takes a minute.
Restarting BumpTop makes no change. -
Inappropriate?Can you post screenshots of the whole process for us. It seems as though it is running fine. But I will have to see. If you can, A video would be better.
-
Inappropriate?Another question, Are you running anything that would prevent B2AT from changing a registry key?
-
Inappropriate?I'll try to get some screen shots or a movie up sometime tomorrow if I have some spare time, but I'm off for now.
-
Inappropriate?We will take another look on our end and make sure all is going well.
Thank You for your help so far. -
Inappropriate?None of the animated themes work with the current builds of Bumptop. We and they are trying to fix this problem.
Thank You for your patience.
