Styx

Styx doesnt seem to function at all?

same for me

00:00:15 - : WinLockDLL.dll could not be loaded

björn might know more about this, if it is documented or why it is not included in the release, but i think you can download WinLockDLL.dll somewhere near this article by António Feijão

Actually I don´t know yet why it is not working. The dll is included in the release (it´s located in the bin folder). For me styx is working, but only with the exe I compiled myself, not with the official release. When debugging it everything works just fine and I have not been able to figure out what goes wrong.
I asked gregsn to have a look at it.

hello.

“WinLockDLL.dll could not be loaded”

is there any chance that we can get a working styx node till tuesday?

would be great.

thanks, florian

no, since there won´t be a new release till tuesday.

sorry was my fault.

what is styx for?

it alllows to enable/disable:

  • Ctrl+Alt+Del and Ctrl+Alt+Esc
  • Alt+Tab and Alt+Esc
  • the Taskmanager
  • the Taskbar

and btw. will the next version include a bugfix for “running vvvv will not allow the computer to switch off”?

we are not talking about the american rock band from the 70ties here.

To quote wikipedia: Styx had miraculous powers and could make someone immortal. Achilles may have been dipped in it in his childhood, acquiring invulnerability

I am not sure if the achilles heel part of the story is also implemented.

@oschatz: the bug is the heel

@ampop: but this bug reminds me more about the achilles and the tortoise story, right?
