Title: Build 4809 to 5153 Hobby, now with industrial look?
Post by: FiveO on July 01, 2023, 10:48:23 AM

Hi

upgraded from 4809 to 5153, and now I have industrial/darker gray look? How to switch to that original light gray screen look?

Reinstall 4809, go copy the screenset out to somewhere, install 5153 and add the old screenset to it.

You COULD do this with directory renaming, too. Rename Mach4Hobby to Mach4Hobby_5153, install 4809 which will create a new Mach4Hobby directory. Copy the screenset you're interested in from 4809 install. Name folders back, Mach4Hobby to Mach4Hobby_4809, Mach4Hobby_5153 to Mach4Hobby. If you have other customizations, you will need to take those into account, too.

NOW you may find your old screen isn't compatible with the 5000+ versions of Mach4. That's what I learned:)

Version 5133 is a beta release. You can download it from here:

Yes, development is actually mis-spelled, but the link is correct.  8-)
