Question About Making Internal Skins
« on: August 25, 2003, 07:35:00 AM »

I was thinking about trying to make a no resouce skin. My question is this. What does a noresource skin consist of? Just the Skin.xml? Where does the background come from if thats the case?

Question About Making Internal Skins

My no resource skin (UyenBox3) uses the preview video for it's background.  I.e., I don't have any video or images in the skin itself, and the background is the MXM_SS.jpg or MXM_SS.wmv associated with whichever game/submenu  is currently chosen is used as a background, if the user has no preview videos or images, my skin looks pretty bad, but if the do, its a nice way to have a no resource skin but still employ video.
