So are those seperate animated windows backgrounds and can they be applied independently?

The WindowFX scripting language is in use in WFX5 yes. There are some new functions of course and you will also be able to use .FX files for more advanced pixel shader and vertex work.

So is this beta coming any time soon? I've been very excited for the last month!
Reply #33 Monday, October 24, 2011 3:18 PM
The beta has been pushed back into November as the WB, Tiles and DeskScapes updates ran a little late.

Animated explorer backgrounds are relevant to my interests and will be great if they can be synced to DeskScapes themes. Any chance this could work in Vista some time in the future, or is that not possible?

What music was that playing in the video?? I love it!

I am unclear on how animated explorer backgrounds link to WindowFX5?

I am also unclear about how animated explorer backgrounds would link to WindowFX5. Perhaps what is meant is the ability to choose something like a Deskscapes animated wallpaper for the explorer background (instead of as the desktop wallpaper)? That would be really cool, especially if it could be faded in the same manner as the textured explorer backgrounds available through Windowblinds (otherwise explorer window contents would probably be unreadable). Doesn't seem like WindowFX5 would be the program through which to implement that, though.

Oops, I was viewing the video in default size and thought I saw a normal windows explorer window with animation in the background. 
My bad. Still looks like some sweet features are being added.

Sweet! WindowFX was the reason why I go into Stardock, hehe I am so using WFX5 when it launches! Windows can be very boring with it's standard FX

Will the settings set in the nvidia 3D section have any effect on the performance on WFX5? like vsync, triple buffering, threaded optimization?

If so, those who have current OD subs will get the upgrade for free, correct?
Just for clarification, please.
Assuming the sub is active on the release date.
