This guide will show you how to install FunkeySelectorGUI on Windows XP as a replacement for using the hub.
Installing .NET Framework v4.0
Firstly, we have to install .NET Framework 4.0, as this is required for FunkeySelectorGUI to run:
- First of all, you need windows XP SP3 or higher. If you have an older version of Windows XP, you'll need to update your system. To update your system, go to http://legacyupdate.net (this website works in internet explorer on windows xp) and click on
Install Legacy Update. Open the file it downloads and make sure that you selectWindows XP Service Pack 3. Then continue on with the process and wait until it finishes. You'll need to restart your computer. After you've done this, you'll also be able to open up Legacy Update from the start menu to install more updates. Feel free to do this, but it's not required. Also, consider leaving them a donation to cover the hosting costs. - Download and install the Windows Imaging Component. Pick one of these links: 64-bit English version or 32-bit English version. Download links for other languages are available here: 64-bit and 32-bit.
- Now we can finally download and install .NET Framework 4.0 (this link works both for 64-bit and 32-bit).
Installing the game and FunkeySelectorGUI
Now onto installing the game:
- Download this file: https://www.mediafire.com/file/s51yymn2ud1wiqf/U.B._Funkeys_5.0_Full_Game.zip/file
- Extract its contents in any place you like. You should end up with a folder named
U.B. Funkeysthat contains aRadicaGameand aMegaBytefolder. - Go into the
MegaBytefolder and rename the file calledMegaByte.exetoMegaByte.original.exe - Download FunkeySelectorGUI.exe and rename it to
MegaByte.exe - Put this new
MegaByte.exefile in theMegaBytefolder.
- Now we should be done. Go to the
U.B. Funkeysfolder again and go into theRadicaGamefolder. Right click onUBFunkeys.exeand click onSend To>Desktop (create shortcut). This will add a shortcut to the desktop. - Double click the shortcut. It should launch the game and open up FunkeySelectorGUI along with it!
