Cool, now I only have one SVN folder to update

QUOTE(xrothgarx @ Mar 14 2007, 05:18 PM)

How would I download a whole skin? I can view the folders and files but if I want to try out a full skin how can I just download the whole folder?

You need a Subversion (SVN) client such as TortoiseSVN.

Nope. You don't need to enter a username and pass to update it, its publically open to anon users.

i dont understand the whole concept of SVN. what does it all mean

It's a quick and easy way of managing content that is frequently updated. Instead of downloading the entire package every single time a change is made, SVN (SubVersion) will only download/update the files that have been changed. It's very nice

The main purpose of SVN (Subversion) is development. If you have a team of users all over the world in different timezones, it helps alot. The files are stored online, and you use a client app to download and upload the files. Now for anonymous users, this means you can download the latest version all the time, but for us developers it means we can all keep our work in sync, and apply the work we have done easily to the source and everyone can update with that source.

Its an excellent process for the way in which we personally get our work done, as we aren't all in the same timezone.

1. Download/install TortoiseSVN
2. Create a folder on your computer somewhere that you want to download the skin(s) to.
3. Right-click the folder and select SVN Checkout
4. Paste the address (https://svn.sourcefo...iacenter/MC360/) into the box by URL of repository
5. Click OK and it should download. No username or password or anything required.

Thanks for the help with TortoiseSVN edwinmcdunlap.

Is there any other way to get a list of what folders are currently in the SVN database for XBMC or is it best to just use the following address in the repository to capture all updates to the XBMC skins?

https://svn.sourcefo...boxmediacenter/

That's it. That URL will download all of the skins in the repository.
Which currently happens to be:

CEOMR Media Center
Clearity
MC360
PDM
Project Mayhem I
Project Mayhem II
Project Mayhem III
Project Mayhem III Lite
Xbox-Classic
xTV

The skin shows up as text only.

It seems like all skins from the XBMC Public SVN that I compile are giving this error. When I run XBMCTex.bat, it returns, "Windows cannot find 'media/XBMCTex'. Make sure you..." I don't know if that may be part of the problem.

Never mind, I do have a media folder in the source directory, but not in the compiled skin.

Smidley · « **Reply #11 on:** March 20, 2007, 01:05:00 AM »

I found the problem. I noticed the Direct3D error at the top of the build log just now, and it occurred to me that I had been compiling while in a remote desktop session the whole time! Duh!
