No, they have no function but they are useful if you want to have the same 8 columns for every number of keys, so you don't mess up with the buttons all the time (left-to-right layout)

Mhm. I understand. Thank you for testing that.
Like I said, will make update later when more things will come. :3

Are you sure you're in the right thread? If you don't have any artistic skill, you're not going to be able to make a skin. And if you're talking about making an actual beatmap, please don't hijack other threads.
Trust me, I would never hijack a thread for that purpose.

I am merely implying I have no skill or understanding in how to create interesting skins that I could use in my beatmaps.
The simplest way is to just jump in. Take a skin like the template one, and try replacing the images and sounds. Try changing things in skin.ini and see what happens (lines beginning with // are comments, they'll be ignored by osu). Look at other skins and maps with skins you like and look in their directories to see how they did things.
thx for the help :D
Awesome^^It looks better now :D
hey hey hey what is this 5+1K and 7+1K? >.<
Nice skins in your signature :P, MLGnom

Ok, something's gone wrong here:



Only my "default-0" is used in the combo number up top. The rest seems to be from the default skin!
Topic Starter
Errr... Screenshot is not enough to tell what it's wrong, maybe post your skin here so I can test it. All I can tell now is that you could mess up with files names.
it's font combo related.
put in nK.ini and add FontCombo:score (as default the 'score'-value is read)
also it still buggy for me... as the current score-0 is not the fontcombo based but scoreprefix based. (in my skin bug thread)

I read the FAQ but couldn't find the info I wanted. For OsuMania, is it possible to make the first four keys (left to right; not symmetrical) black, the next four keys white, and the last key black?
Hey, where do I find the "skin.ini" thing?

In any existing skin. Including template that you can here.
And how can I add it to my own skin?

Lou-kun wrote: 41583k

Just find it inside of skin and copy it to your own. D:

Lou-kun wrote: 41583k

each osu!Skin has its own skin.ini and can be found on the osu!Skin's folder.
e.g. C:/Program Files/Osu!/Skins/amigo/skin.ini (location varies on where you installed osu!)

Lou-kun wrote: 41583k

3 options

  • 1. refer to the default's skin.ini and tweak it.
  • 2. copy other's skin.ini and edit to your own preference
and the last... (this might be difficult)
  • 3. try freelance and start from nothing and save as "skin.ini" (just refer from the 1st post under a spoilerbox named Skin.ini for the codes)
really useful guide :)

It's very helpful for me ! :)

AussieEvil wrote: 56ta

The graphic for the osu!mania button is special-mania.

how do you change the menu like that? i thought it is only working on the main menu??? what other screens can you set your own background? :shock:
special-background.png
while options-background.png is deleted from resource (replaced by menu-background.jpg) by peppy~
inputoverlay-background.png must be constructed from top to bottom because osu! rotates it by 90° to the right. Or construct it from bottom to top and rotate the image by 180°.

You can try to add "clicktostart.png" and "dragtobrowse.png"

You should get something like this :D


Btw: the image clicktostart should be the same size with reserve arrow.
I don't have any idea about the image dragtobrowse size, very hard to tell exactly xD

Topic Starter
osu! history page is your friend guys.
"clicktostart.png" Is most likely that button to start in very early version of osu!. It's useless now.

I'm pretty sure someone decompiled osu! files to find info about that... but I'm surprised that it's till there and working. o.O

Will try to find out what "dragtobrowse.png" is for or was for.

MLGnom wrote: 3b6q29

as expected... dragtobrowse.png appears behind the leaderboard...

dragtobrowse is an instruction to drag something around there (but not touch the leaderboard), and browse the song selection up and down (regarding direction of your drag)
is it means : need the original pic of dragtobrowse ?
Not sure, but in my osu, it's still active...
Check my screenshot .


There are 2 images i'm using.


You can check at resolution 1024x768.
where's the large transparent osu icon there?
lol

It's should be appeared beside the osu icon in song selection xD
even though they exist... they're still dead elements... because in the modern side of osu! (probably ~2010-2012), these elements are now beauty spoilers.

@MLGnom: it's depend on resolution of your game.
In my example is full screen with 1024x768 resolution.

no, i didn't do anything to dragtobrowse till i touch image editor again to "move the temporary try of dragtobrowse" into dragtobrowse.
well, it was different from dragtobrowse, (also, the other hint/note : smaller version can't be changed)
(dragtobrowse is centreright aligned then)

hint: it was my try to change the skin behind there before dragtobrowse.png is the true answer instead.

Yeah, noticed that too.
Well we shouldn't care much about these. If someone want to do something with them, go ahead, but they are dead elements that shouldn't be there.
If they aren't affected by aspect ratio they are from times before "widescreen" update.
If you say so... xD

With VS2012 (and every other VS-Release), you only can watch the hexadecimal "code" of the dll, not actually anything that's inside.
Yes, and that's why i must find another way to see skin part. But not all. xD
Actually, i knew exactly how much parts that osu contains, but i can't read them all or see how those thing designed. :(
All i see is only a hex code and binary. :(
