No, the screensaver extension is .scr, all you need to do is make something like this:


Then you just make an exe of that, change the extension to .scr, and place it on the WINDOWS folder!

For my screen saver I used



so that it exited with pressing any key or using the mouse in any way.

Insanity is just a state of mind

What, changing the extension? You right click on the icon and click on "Rename". Then you just change the part after the dot to "scr".

I don't know what you mean by "An ocean twilight"?

Twilight is the meaning of "Between Light and Dark" So therefor, it would be refering to a sunset. Think of DarkMATTER's SkySphere "Ocean Sunset" It would be similiar to that, but in 3D.

Oh, okay, the "Ocean" part confused me for a minute.
Yeah, make that, it'd be great!

Oh you didnt understand how i said it? I should have made it sound a little better then, shouldnt i have.

Thanks for the support and help!



PS: There is only one problem with the screensaver, when choosing a screensaver from the display properties menu, it automatically runs it when i click it, as opposed to not. Other then that, that was relatively simple!
