No, I tried that by myself. When I click outside of the mode images (left side) and the cursor wasn't on the scoreboard, nothing happens and no mode was changed. This also applies when the cursor is on the leaderboard.

You can even make the mode selection more in style. Grab the size of the mode icon as 768x128px, then the filling area is 448x128 on the right side.

Aw man, I really like the ones I have right now but the amount kills it

at [colours] what does combo1, combo2, combo3, etc. affect? the color of the hit circles?

thats correct. you can have up to 8 colours i think

Correct. Up to 8 colours. They are only used when mapper haven't added colours (left them default) or when you disable beatmap skin (in visual settings).

A few weeks ago I compiled a list of all the mania .ini parameters with their default values, and then I forgot to publish it. Hope this helps out some people. There might POSSIBLY be something I'm missing but I don't think so.

Well Recently i decided too make my own skin i followed the instructions on the forum and everything but there is one tiny problem whenever i press z to click it gives me 100s and recently ive been having to only use the x key to click i also tried switching the buttons for clicking and nothing happens im guessing its the skin i can link anyone too the skin if they think they know what the exact problem is.... ME ASAP!

Check in your skin if you haven't swaped pictures of "hit300.png" and "hit300k.png" with "hit100.png" and "hit100k.png" by mistake.

can we add more frames (up to 15 Frames) to sliderb ? will it affect when we play, like a little bit laggy ?

Yes. You can add any amount of frames.

I don't think it will affect gameplay in any way. (Actually only High Resolution skin can cause minor fps drops)

First, peppy haven't put them into official template. (yet, but nobody can confirm that he will do it someday)
Second, you can do a lot more in test build than in normal relase, so if you are testing skin or skins parts do that in actual build. You can never be sure what will be added in next upadate.

Yes, animation doesn't extend the length of lighting. It simply have it constant. More frames = faster animation.

I made an animation for my Back button but it's going too fast,is there any way to make it slow? Adding more frames doesn't seem to work..

Use "AnimationFramerate: X" frames in skin.ini. But this option will also affect any other animations if you have them.
Or to make animation slower add frames in other way. "play-skip-0" and "play-skip-1" is using same picture number 1, "play-skip-2" and "play-skip-3"is using same picture number 2 etc.
If it's still too fast add more frames as "frame 1" "frame 2" etc.

("Summary"):

AnimationFramrerate: (insert number here)
- defines a constant framerate for any animated elements (skin.ini option)
eg. AnimationFramerate: 20 (every animation will go 20 frames)
Note: the lower the number, the slower the animation

if still too fast

Repeating Frames
- by using a single image for 2 frames, the animation will go slower than usual, but the consequence is: skin size will increase
eg. Image1 = play-skip-0 and play-skip-1, Image2 = play-skip-2 and play-skip-3

if still too fast

use a single image for 3 frames

If you have the new default skin option disabled osu will use the old spinner style even if you have the new spinner elements in your folder. If you want the new spinner you have to use the new style.

Oh ok, and aside from a few things in the ranking, are there any other changes in the new style?

Well I'm not entirely sure what the option toggle reverts, the skin update changed a lot of things. Hit circles fade differently, slider track points animate into place, judgement hits (300 100 50 miss) draw and decay differently and have an animated particle effect, the spinner was completely redesigned, the HP bar changed in style, and the countdown also completely changed.

The rank menu buttons being unable to be skinned with the new skin was an old bug I believe? I forget since I never really messed with it, you should try using the prefix of 'pause-' on the buttons instead and see if that works. 'pause-back' 'pause-replay' and such.

Edit: this of course means with the NEW default style enabled.

Read a bunch of the older posts, I have a general gist of it. Extreme emphasis on general.
It just looks strange because I made the pause-retry on the left side, so on the ranking, there'd be a retry in the ranking xD
Thanks~

edit: Pretty sure this is old news, but when you have two monitors with new style, you can't move your cursor out without alt-tabbing

Found this online, is it possible to change the main screen icons? (the big Osu! button/ play/ edit/ options/ the icons in the top right/ online s/ show chat)

That's a screenshot of an old main menu design, and no, it's not possible to skin anything on the main menu other than the background. (which is er only)

Is there a way to slow down the menu-back-(0,1,2,etc...) gif? My gif is going by way to fast and looks bad.

ScarletFrost wrote: 4v4io

The only way to slow down menu-back is adding "AnimationFramerate: <number of frames per second>" to [General] part in skin.ini .
Lower value will slow it down.
Example :
AnimationFramerate: 3 - will load 3 frames of animation per second.

that it wll affect any other animations (excluding slider ball).

Why does my Skip button and back button going at different speeds if they have same AnimationFramerate:?
Would it be, because of amount of frames you have for each set of picture?

Correct.
For example :
If your skip button have 12 frames, menu button have 28 and you have set "AnimationFramerate : 4" skip will only take 3 second to make loop and for menu back it will take 7 seconds.

Hello there!

I'm currently working on my first skin, and I have some difficulties with the spinner. I used the stickied tutorial on how to make one, but the spinner-background is a bit darker in-game than in the original file, which destroys the effect of the spinner-metre somewhat. I guess that the new skin-behaviour has something to do with it, so what can I do to fix this?

I ed my spinner-background, my spinner-metre and an in-game screenshot for better understanding.
Be careful, these images are quite large!


Thanks in advance!

Hello,
im currently trying to make my own skin but i'm not sure how to position the pause-overlay buttons, like its shown in the first post.
Maybe someone knows a quick way to change that

To have the buttons appear offset to the left or right rather than the centre you have to make the actual size of the .png larger horizontally with blank space, and then put your actual button on the leftmost/rightmost. This is fudging placement though, and the empty space is still counted as a button and is clickable.

Hmm thank you that already helps alot.
Mhm but the position of the button itself isn't changable right? Like with a command in the skin.ini or something.
I wanted to put the 3 buttons right next to each other in the upper left corner but i dont think it will work like that will it?

Unfortunately not. Most everything is in a completely set position and any variations you see in them through various skins are the result of fudging placement with differing resolutions and blank spaces. And some elements - like the pause buttons - don't work very well when you try to fudge them vertically, as they start to overlap.

Hm thats a shame. But still thank you very much for the tip .
I'll try to position the buttons with your methode the way i imagined.

Oh, that's a shame. Too bad that it'll not going to work for the time being.

Anyway, I tried to skin the new spinners, and it worked pretty good so far. But there is still one question that pops up in my head: Is it possible to change the spinner from it's non-spinned condition until it's spinned?

I guesss that this wasn't a good formulation, so here's an example: At the start of the spinner, the image should be balck and white. I guess that this position is represented by the spinner-bottom in the new skin behaviour.
After the player starts to spin, the spinner should turn from B/W into color over the course of the spin. This would be spinner-top, if my assumption is right.

After my reasoning I tried it out with a spinner-bottom in black and white and with a spinner-top in color, but this didn't really worked out, since the spinner was in color at all time. I guess that means that I still don't understand much of the new spinner behaviour, and I thought that I could figure it out. Oh well.

It would be very helpful if someone could point out the exact useage of spinner-top and spinner-bottom, although I guess that this was already explained earlier in the thread.

All the spinner elements are on screen at once during a spinner. spinner-top is overlaid onto spinner-bottom, and when start spinning both these elements spin at different rates to give the crazier swirl effect. spinner-middle get additive red color as you spin acting as the spinner metre. spinner-glow gets additive blue color as you spin acting as a secondary spin metre, and then flashes whenever you get a spinner bonus tic.

If you want to make your spinner gain additive color as it's spun you should try messing with a solid spinner-glow and mostly transparent spinner-top/bottoms. You can also manipulate exactly what color the final result will be by making your spinner-glow a specific color that mixes with the additive color to make a different result.

this is the element order of the new spinner (if i got it right)

OsuMe65 wrote: 4d3mn

This is correct. As another side note on spinners - spinner-middle2 is basically a spinner-top-top as it's overlaid onto spinner-top and it also spins, giving you three rotating layers to work with. I can't recall if spinner-middle2 spins at the same rate as spinner-top though.

Well, then my plan wouldn't work well with these three individual-spinning spinners, since I'm using a static picture and not a pattern-like one, I guess. A simple spinner should do the job for now. Thanks for the help!

I also finished the hitbursts today, the hit300-images are 102x211 large (height x width). They're fitting nicely and they shouldn't be larger than the hitburts that the template provides, but I would like to make sure, are they too large for regular play?

that depends on how you see your hitbursts during play.
well, as for the size... it should work well since it is smaller than the default's 256x256

Mistake, during gameplay, the approach circle lies below spinner-middle2, using my own older skin elements I made.

1366x768 is a 16:9 resolution, if you are using a 16:10 5:4 or 4:3 resolution the background image will be fit to the resolution vertically then cropped on the sides to fit the ratio.

How do you change the hitsounds on a skin? The skin I'm using does not have any hitsound files like normal-hitclap or so forth. I ed a hitsound I liked and put it in but it doesn't make any sound when I play in osu? Yes I reloaded the client and also have the option for using the skins hitsounds enabled.

I see a lot of different pixel sizes and shapes for cursors too. Is the hitbox the cursor.png file or is it a separate entity?

I also see people making squares instead of circles for skins. Do the corners of those squares act also as part of the hitbox?

edit: did some testing i think the cursor is a single pixel and circles are 1-3 pixels off from 124x124

@vahn10: skinning the cookie (logo) is strictly prohibited, you know

------------------------------------

anyway, if those are er only skinnables, let's wait for a er's response for further information/confirmation....

I'm not sure what the actual hitbox on circles is, I've been meaning to ask peppy/test this out myself, but in the meantime the actual hitboxes on cursors and circles are defined by the game, not the graphic. That would be silly.

Those are all actual skin elements, but they are not skinnable. They're all part of the base menu system which is entirely locked out from being skinned.

you can see it when you finished watching failed replay

file name: menu-osu.png
dimensions: 520x520 pixels

and this one can be put to your skin folder

peppy locked out all the menu skin elements from the main client for good back when the default skin was updated. These things work in the test client but... who cares about skinning menu items only for the test client. Don't bother using these elements.

off topic:
When I got er Tag, I will try to look for more elements

on topic: did you recolor those menu Icons like Play?

You can't skin these things outside the test build so why try to find them? (I already have a list of all of them by the way) Them even working in the test build anyway I assume is just an oversight.

test build skinnables = test build only
using them is totally bullsh*t because:

1. destroy's new default's beauty (not quite important)
2. those elements are space bloaters
3. those elements are not necessary in anyway...

(@King of Thread Locking: leave something here... if you have any additions )

And what are these levels are supposed to tell us?

i don't think "skinning levels" would denote the skin's content... or the skinner type
just saying because gary didn't specify any
(brb bringing back the correct thread icon)
