Hi everybody !

(If previously you had some difficulties to apply this visual style, re-downloaded, because all the problem are fixed

After Illuminatis VS and Transpace, i’m proud to present you my new visual style, called Transcendantal, a dark, solid and squared theme, inspired by the great creation of dahlia-7, Silent Night: [link], but also by the style of djabytown

This is a theme available for Windows 7

Please read carefully how to install this theme

I) About the theme

As you can see, it’s a dark, compact and squared visual style. I decided to imagine this theme after discovering Silent Night, created by dahlia-7 to customize iTunes

This has been a complete revelation, a real slap in the face. However I’ve never been attracted by solid and dark themes. As Transpace, i preferred the aero style
But when i discovered this style, I realized immediately that I should make it as a visual style, for windows 7

This is not a port, because i had to imagine by myself most of the interface.

Finally it took me 2 months

II) Installation

a) Condition:

- For windows 7
- At first you must patch your system to use this theme: [link]
- Use this theme with AeroBar.exe: a little application which allows you to add the title of your folder in explorer (in this archive)
- excellent for bottom shellstyle user (works also for the top shell user )
- I suggest you to use it with big icons for the taskbar (i will try to update this theme for little icons later, promised )
- 14,9 Mo

b) Contains:

- The visual style for windows 7 ( .theme, .msstyles file and the wallpaper)
- System file for x64 and x86
- AeroBar app

c) Process:

1) Download the visual style

2) Move the Transcendantal.theme file and “Transcendantal” folder into: \Windows\resources\Themes. So click on Transcendantal.theme file / or personnalize and choose this theme/ or with a visual style launcher, like Tune Up utilities, windows7 style buider or avestyler

3) install the 4 system files (x86 or x64): explorerframe.dll shell32, explorer.exe and timedatecpl

4) restart and enjoy

c) Features used:

- Visual style editor : Windows 7 style builder
- Resource editor : Restorator 2007
- Image editor: Photoshop CS4

III) Notes

a) credit:

- The credits go at first for Andreas Verhoven and all those who helped create this application
- For dahlia-7 of course, the creator of this great theme, silent night that inspired me
- To djabytown and stopdreaming i suggest you to use his awesome albook icons with this theme: as you can see, the result is breathtaking
- Icons for the startmenu : [link] by chrfb
- For all persons who gave me their opinion and suggestions
- and finally to all persons who will leave a com and who will “fav” this theme: i will try to answer

b) Permission:

You can share and use some parts of this theme. But you must credit :iconDhalia7: and me.Thx u for your comprehension

    how to instal the system files mentioned in step 3

      Maybe I am wrong but all you need to do is backup original files and swap the new one. You can use search to find them in your system. Probably you need to swap them in special windows mode.

        I’ve already done that, but I got an error message saying that “explorer.exe” that I copied is being used by another process. Something like that

    Wow, it is extremely hard to answer this kind of question without ’shadow’ your system.

    • Rijalul FikriNo Gravatar

      It’s okay. I’ve solved the problem. I just use TakeControl.exe to take over the administrative privilege of the file. Then I rename the system file to *.backup. Then paste the system file provided by the theme. Done :)
