Eclipse Lun3r is a fork of Pale Moon made for Windows XP, and Eclipse Hydra is a fork of Basilisk made for Windows XP. Some advantages over upstream and roytam1's New Moon are more optimizations and better interoperability with upstream. (using SQL storage intead of DBM)

Main download link (GitHub): https://github.com/Eclipse-Community/UXP/releases

Alternative download link (SourceForge): https://sourceforge.net/projects/lun3r/files/

Features: Installer and true portable variants.
More optimizations than upstream.
Features from Mypal like duplicate tab.
Experimental and very broken e10s support. (it works better in Hydra)
Uses SQL instead of DBM for better compatibility with upstream profiles.
JPEG XL support!
Lun3r/New Moon theme coloring is fixed on XP. (I really should update the screenshots to reflect this)
Windows theme version override.
Added back Nvidia 3D. (untested)
Integrated PDF reader in Lun3r.

Ok ... thank you very much for your hard work on this project :)

I've been using it all day and not issues to report other than 1 that isn't a big deal to me.

Is the "theme" setting still broken? Because I've tried all settings and nothing changes even when restarting the browser. Do I need the theme service running on my XP? I currently don't use that and use the classic theme with custom icons and tile sizes to fit my OCD (not kidding)

No, it doesn't rely on the theme service. I don't think any of the options would change anything in classic theme, it more affects basic/Luna and Aero. It's just a way to override what CSS the browser uses for given version of Windows.

^Thank you for the clarification.

Please, and I've tried everything I know, how do/can I *force* multi-process in Lun3r?

browser.tabs.remote.force-enable;true
dom.ipc.processCount;2

This works fine in Hydra (I have 2 processes going) but I can't force it in Lun3r. I may have already asked this but my memory sucks nowadays; so I apologize in advance if so.

Thank you for your attention.

It should be the same as Hydra, or maybe Google could give what is missing. However multiprocess is very broken and isn't recommended in Lun3r.

Just another question when you can answer regarding Hydra not Lun3r.

No matter what I do info is saving on the "C:\Documents and Settings\DELL\Application Data\Eclipse Community\Hydra\Profiles\uxayj0vu.default\storage\default" folder. I thought I was blocking that with:

user_pref("browser.cache.disk.amount_written", 0);
user_pref("browser.cache.disk.capacity", 0);
user_pref("browser.cache.disk.enable", false);
user_pref("browser.cache.disk.filesystem_reported", 1);
user_pref("browser.cache.disk.smart_size.enabled", false);
user_pref("browser.cache.disk.smart_size.first_run", false);
user_pref("browser.cache.offline.capacity", 0);
user_pref("browser.cache.offline.enable", false);

And

user_pref("dom.storage.enabled", false);

But no?!?!

How do I prevent sites from saving to that folder at all. This doesn't happen in Mypal68.

Thank you for your attention.

I'm pretty sure the storage folder is used for cookies as well, so you might have to block them.

If this is incorrect, test New Moon, and if it happens there, ask roytam1 about it.

Thank you!

As I wrote Lun3r and New Moon are fine. I just tested the latest Serpent 52 and it's exactly the same situation with that like Hydra so I'll message him if it persists.

Enjoy your Tuesday :)

The web still is cooperating with Hydra and Lun3r other than a few sites that no longer load ... mostly still having fun and also looking forward to the next updates.

Since I only use a handful of sites, the bells and whistles employed on number of sites mostly don't affect me, but I had to give up using Google Drive on UXP, it's just not usable anymore. Can't open folders, upload files, context menus are broken and don't get populated with all options...

Actually, I was spoofing Firefox for Google domains, probably to hide the warning about supported web browsers. I normally use native user agent. So I removed those overrides and now Google Drive seems to mostly work, at least navigating folders, uploading files, copying share links...but downloading doesn't work for some reason.

Seems spoofing Firefox to accounts.google.com is also needed for some sites for login through Google account to work, otherwise, the login dialog just doesn't popup.

Remind me to make a post for Eclipse Mail when I make a new build.
