Notes:

  • Royale/Energy Blue is the one released by Microsoft New Zealand that includes the new bliss wallpaper (New Bliss.jpg). The other version ("Microsoft Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005 Energy Blue Theme Pack") (with EnergyBliss.jpg) is available here but will only install on XP Tablet PC edition.
  • Royale Noir is signed by Microsoft and works on stock Windows XP but I'm not sure where it was initially released, probably somewhere on Channel 9. The download points to a .zip with the name fixed from Luna to Royale Noir so it does not conflict with the real Luna.
  • The Zune theme installer requires the user to set compatibility settings on the .msi. Perhaps Rapps could gain the ability to do this automatically in the future?
  • Neither version of TweakUI works perfectly so I included both.
  • TweakUI v2 will not uninstall because it uses a custom MSHTA uninstaller that needs Trident+WScript.

That one didn't require the special installer thing like for Royale Noir?

This one is a nasty exe installer inside a zip that we don't have a good experience for (fix for this here). I left it like this since this is the original file on a Microsoft server. The alternative would be to upload the exe somewhere but IANAL.

Royale Noir just has the style files directly in the .zip so we can use our Generate installer feature...
