Nice skins, thats odd the upload script is kinda rubbish anyway i'm searching for a better one.

[gasclown]

here's a couple more at AXS.

neXgen White:



Pink Bits  



this one has a (mainmenu) cellwall mod. usually looks like this:



if you like it the default way better open up mainmenu.lua and look for this:

QUOTE

-- Background perfect positioning renderobject("outersphere", 30, 0, 0, -21, PI/2, BackRotation, 0, 1.3, 1.3, 1.3) --gasrenderobject("outersphere", 3, 0, 0, 31, PI/2, BackRotation, 0, 1.3, 1.3, 1.3)

and make it look like this:

QUOTE

-- Background perfect positioning renderobject("outersphere", 3, 0, 0, 31, PI/2, BackRotation, 0, 1.3, 1.3, 1.3)

not using Dwyzanes orbs anymore, so creds to XBtool_Color_BIOS_Preset_Maker_1.0b instead.

Now people are finally seeing that neXgen is the best dash for skinning.

Very cool, KEEP EM COMING!!!!!!

[gasclown]

hey does the skin switching code work atm? i'm probably missing something obvious but i've tried everything i can think of to get skin swapping happening in dash but any mods or new skin lua's i create just freeze the dash on skin select screen.  sorry if this is really simple and i'm asking a dumb question.

cheers

Hi gasclown,

That is a bug we introduced when we started using object cacheing. It will be fixed in an upcoming version

All theese new skin designs are looking great

Thanks to all of you for your support and help.

Hi, no box this morn i so i've made an orb template for neXgen

Here's a pic:


It was made with max/illustrator ('X' grabbed from XBtool) but i can make it a .psd template for ease. It's 2 layers one for sphere and one for the X. i know it looks really plain but in a pic editing app you can add lighting/filters etc. adjust colours by layer to suit with hue/saturation and resize all elements.  it will come out about 1 meg and is legal of course. lemme know if you want it. can't post it here.

SpOok - cool was driving me nuts. UX - the skin swappers choice.  Also, just who is this mystery coder - i have my suspicions

[PID]

My mainmenu no longer has an orb. Its a cylinder with a flat front face with the X mapped onto it. I did this because the current models made a black line around the X logo when viewed at a slight angle, and distorted the image slightly. If you made your X template the same size as the orignal X logo they will work fine in my new mainmenu.

[gasclown]

Cool, can do. Just to clarify we're talking the size of the neXgen xlogo right?  also does this mean no spinning orb for neXgen?

[PID]

Yes were talking about the "X" logo in the orb. No it means mapping an image looks better. The orbring still spins. Also I can replace the orb with anything you can imagine (or get rid of it altogther to see the holders behind it). We can spin the X logo if you really want, but it would look ass on the old orb cause of the black band around it (a circle in a black square) With my way we can spin it like a coin with logo on front and back which I think will look better (no black lines). But if you want a sphere with an image mapped onto it, that is easy too (just not a round image like the current one).
