The new and improved VystalVivid--formly known as Vystal and Vystal Reloaded--has finally been released!

Vystal offers the awesome affects of aero on Windows XP as well as aero-disabled versions of Windows Vista. The full list of features include:

- V-LiveBlur™:
No delay on moving. Improoved blur algorithm.

You can see yourself in the borders! It projects the captured image of your Webcam onto the borders.

With the new MemCare technology your RAM usage is less than 10 MB! (depends on your settings)
- RealityColor:
Vystal uses its high-quality color engine for really realistic colors.
- CPUCare:
Vystal cares for your CPU. If your CPU gets too hot, Vystal turns off some features so that your CPU can cool down.
- Fully customizable border:
Customize everything you want. Color, hue, saturation...
- Very close to Vista:
Vystal can emulate some Windows Vista functions. Vystal Explorer Emulation, blurred taskbar, startmenu (beta), hide/show Desktop, change desktopstyle, original Vista colordialog
- Special effects:
Add some nice special effects like abberation, transparency, fade-in/out effects
- Helping tools:
VystalVivid delivers two very important tools: The Exclusion-List and the Windowmanager.
The Exclusion-List lets you exclude various applications from beeing changed.
The Windowmanager lets you find changed windows and handle hidden or broken windows
so that your work is save.

Be always up-to-date with the new update function and the integrated browser.

The interesting thing is that Windows Vista have lower system requirements...

Home Basic:
1 GHz 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor
512 MB of system memory
20 GB hard drive with at least 15 GB of available space
Support for DirectX 9 graphics and 32 MB of graphics memory

Home Premium / Business / Ultimate:
1 GHz 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor
1 GB of system memory
40 GB hard drive with at least 15 GB of available space
Support for DirectX 9 graphics with:
WDDM Driver
128 MB of graphics memory (minimum)
Pixel Shader 2.0 in hardware
32 bits per pixel

yeah, this is slow as hell on my PC, while vista ran OK. it's really cool though that you don't have to install it and it's really small, so i hope to see new versions soon.

It's come a long way compared to previous releases...I thought it was well worth the mention on here for the tremendous amount of effort it took by JackHard.

He really jacks it hard, I guess you could say :smilie4:

I also like the extra 'L' in powerful (check image) :lol:

Ah fuck the first thing I do with any computer is turn the eye candy off , but then again what do I know . I prefer performance or glitter but its one's preferences I guess .

This thing seems buggy as hell to me.
