UPDATE XMB Wave Screensaver for Windows v0.95 and v0.96

February 28, 2007

agentorange has just tipped us off on his latest update for the XMB Wave Screensaver for Windows application he released just yesterday. As we mentioned earlier, this isn’t really a homebrew app for the PSP, but because it mimics the handheld’s XMB, we thought we should inform you guys about it too.

And based on your responses, it seems a lot of you were really interested and even in awe of agentorange’s app! So…he decided to work hard on fixing all the bugs you reported and bring you this updated release.

As for those who are asking whether their Macs will be seeing this screensaver too, here’s what agentorange had to say: “Mac or Linux version won’t happen any time soon, as this is DirectX dependant (for now). Sorry!” Also, he says he’s still trying to figure out how to get this running with the desktop in the background.

So while we wait for that, why don’t you update the one you have running on your PC’s and get the following fixes and additions:

v0.95:

Probably fixed flickering on startup
Problems with hiding Mouse Cursor fixed

v0.9:

Added Control Panel
Color selection, Custom colors
Frequency of Colorchange, Background Options
Wave Speed, Wave Height
Fixed Several smaller Bugs

v0.5:

Fixed Bug concerning Multi-Monitors / Widescreens
Fixed Timing Errors

To install, all you have to do is (and we quote): Unpack to a directory of your choice then Right-Click “Wave_by_AoR.SCR” and pick “Install.”

Update: According to agentorange: “Version 0.95 had a bug preventing it to run on Windows XP only showing a white screen / flickering. This has (hopefully) been fixed in v0.96! Thanks for your feedback and please tell me if you encounter any more bugs!”
