Skin.ini From Scratch
« on: January 24, 2003, 01:39:00 AM »

Ok I've done a search for this to no availe so I guess I'll swallow my pride and actualy ask something  :o

anyways I was woundering exatly how skin.ini's work since I have a mac and can't use EvoX Skinner and figured I'd make a skin from scratch but I'm haveing problems understanding how the skin.ini's work, so... how do I make a skin without using EvoX Skinner or any other xbox skin specific software for that matter?

X, Y is where yer text sits on the picture.

0,0 is the very top lefthand  corner
640,480 is the very bottom righthand corner

Text       = 30,37,0.5,0x000000,0,"<Time>"
30, 37 is placment of the text
0.5,0x000000 is transperency and color
the last 0 is justification
