Softimage Survival Pack 1.6Author: various
updated for the final versions 2015_SP2/2015_R2_SP2 — Softimage Survival Pack wraps a number of add-ons that can only be applied by patching factory files. See the thread in the link section below for a preview.

Replaces the green Autodesk app icons with the old black 'X' icons XSI 5's splash screen graphics for Softimage 2015 (other versions are getting different splash screens) top-right toolbar logo replaced with the old version added feature for ICE: Menu item »select object(s)« in the context menu of get data scene reference nodes now supports multiple selection added feature for ICE: Executable compounds added to the lists in Preferences > Custom > ICE Operators (AKA »Custom ICE operators«) can now be applied to multiple selected objects at once using the specified menus.

Note: This is an installer executable which patches files inside the Softimage application directory. Backups of the original files are created (named *_original) and can be restored manually or using the included uninstaller (via Windows Control Panel > Software). Supported versions: Softimage 2013 SP1, 2014 (all SPs) and 2015. Not tested on Windows 8. Uses the Nullsoft NSIS Installer/VPatch addon. Use at your own risk.

local backup: Softimage_Survival_Pack_v1.5.exe

Or is there any -tip- to accurately convert the splash screen to any graphic?
Thanks.

apologies if I am misreading this, but it sounds like you don't know how to replace the spash screen with the env variable

Hehe, back in the day I had a script at work which would randomly copy one of these into people's installations...

It would :)) .. had a shot at that a few years ago. Gave up rather quickly. The bitmaps are spread across several dlls and some bits of the UI I couldn't even find, like even the main background color.

Forgot about the splash screen env var. Could have used it for the survival pack too but since I was patching files anyway it wouldn't have made a big difference.

@RRay, where is the bitmap located on the .dll? Yes I got a bitmap to fit.
Thanks.

Thanks. The difference between 1.5 and 1.6 is that it patches version 2015 sp2?
