A word of caution about installing the TS updates!

i don't have windows 8 to test my addon,

There is free virtualization software like VMWare or is Virtualbox. And there is a three months testing version of Windows 8 and Windows 8.1

Too late to test out 8.1 I think. My testing version expired January 15 and I was forced to get the upgrade (albeit free) because I lost my rollback USB to Windows 8.

Then use the other virtualization solution too. That way you have three more months

I have resolved the bug for shadermagic, the "shadermagic.tss" create a memory leak under Windows 8.1, i have downloaded a new shadermagic.tss file in 1.03 version from the old gallo website homepage here http://web.archive.org/web/200308040511 ... /index.htm and that's works fine now under Windows 8.1 no error when launching TS 7.6, i can test my addon under windows 8.1 on my PC 's brother recently upgraded in Windows 8.1. Rhino169 are right, it's shadermagic that create this nasty bug. No need to remove shadermagic files now.

Also, i have sucessfully merge in one setup file, TS 7.6 original setup with unofficial update files but without my addon. i continu my test under windows 8.1 and add later PDF and VIDEO files in the one setup file. After i retry the same processus for TS 7.61 full and standalone.
