God i love guessing what skin file that goes where :P

But on the bright side of life, its starting to come toghter quite nicley ^_^
There will be some pretty big changes in the next version, all tho right now, im going to do my best to see to it that you guys dont get light green private msg window backgrounds, becouse that sucked :P

Hehe thanks guys =)

Did some small changes on the HP bars.... one was upside down and the other one was.. buggy... No biggie tho, inchase it buggs you just re-dowload the skin, if you dont care they will get fixed with the next major skin update anyway ^_^
(Sheduled to 17.9

)

Now as for the chat windows beeing green unless there "Borderless"

Now i cant really do alot about that exept to make them alittle darker... Its a unfortionate side effect...
Some basic AO skin knowledge:
Just about every window in the game, be it chat or map or friend or Options/perk window use the same texture files... There are up to 14x14 pixles...
And theres usually about 9 of these that make a window...
And there re-used for multiple things...
So for the windows thats about 4 corners thats like 14x14 pixles each, 4 sides thats about 14x3 pixels each and a single center thats about 14x14 pixles, then they are streached to inside bounderys to fill up your window...
Now its a extreamly effective way to do things and it takes weary little disk space, unftionetly its also extreamly limeting when it comes to grafics...

And thanks to these 9 beeing used for multiple windows i need to choose: A: Green chatwindow unless you got borderless and green /tell windows... OR... Black chatwindows and black on all other windows...
Unless i figure something really smart out, im going to keep to A tho...

Ok!

Time for abit of a update!

Unfortionetly i havent been able to work on the skin as much as i would like to latley, BUT... I have upgraded from using Gimp to Photoshop CS3 so once i get around to learning that you shuld see some.. improvments... I guess...

Anyway in the mean time i figured id show ya what im working with...
And seeing how a movie of a windows window with mini pics in it would be endlessly booring and dull, i figured out how to open them with the firefox add-on "Piclens" its quite awesome, if you use firefox id sugest you... check it out...
Anyway heres the video!
SoldierTeck - The files
Enjoy...

Rktim out...

**Deathkillz** · Aug 30th, 2008, 05:41:50

cool skin, im liking alot, only one thing i dislike is the background images on the backpacks inventory, makes the items hard to see if small n dark

is there anyway to change this so its just blank without the hellspinner gun pic?

thx

**Deathkillz** · Aug 30th, 2008, 16:27:22

how do i make this perma so i dont have to keep checking them

Try ticking it and relogging with the 30sec logout, if you crash while logging out your settings wont get saved, if that doesn't help il look in to it

also those settings are individual for each toon.... so you have to set them on each toon...

Yeah i know there only really annoying the first 2 days xD

Hmmmmm ok disable inspect is staying ticked for me on test atleast...

The thing is that i got NO IDEA where these options actually are saving im starting to think that MAYBE its a server side thingy.... Ima keep looking tho
(Even if its server side it could still be a issue with a file in my GUI preventing it from sending the info to the server)

The skin seems very nice, though the background icons on inventories and backpacks seem a bit disturbing. They make finding empty slots a lot harder.

Good job though!
