CellWall as Orb with different textures

If you dont like the orb image you can use your cell wall as a orb...

to do this open mainmenu.lua in your Skins/xdash folder

find


CODE
loadmesh("xsphere", "SKINS:\\xdash\\mainmenu\\xsphere.xbg")



and at the front of the line it is on add


CODE
--(space bar)

what this does is comment out the loadmesh (orb mesh) code

After that add this after it

CODE
loadmesh("innersphere", "SKINS:\\xdash\\mainmenu\\innersphere.xbg")

This loads the new model you will be making later


then find

renderobject("xsphere", 1, -15, 0.95, 3, 0, -PI/18, 0, 0.5, 0.5, 0.5)

and comment it out by putting this before it


CODE
--(space bar)



underneath that make a new line and paste this


CODE
renderobject("innersphere", 3, -25, 0, 31, PI/2, BackRotation*20, 0, 0.4, 0.4, 0.4)



the "BackRotation*20" is the way it rotates and currently i havent found other ways to rotate but to change speed change the "20" to another number

Now to make you new model
open outersphere.xbg in a hex editor and rename the outersphere.bmp entry on the text side to innersphere.bmp then save as innersphere.xbg

now make a new texture using outersphere.bmp as a model and place both the innersphere.xbg and innersphere.bmp in the xdash folder

now your done enjoy
this will give you a cellwall orb mesh instead of the orb texture

Nice work Well done. DO u think it be possible to get some screens up?

any idea on how to get the selected stuff to be opaque?
such as the "storagebox" or "storageitem"

good job! hehe

That must be the most awesom skin i have seen for nexgen fcken crazy man good work.

As for your question about opaque not sure man u need 2 ask swolsten or sp0ok.

GamerMage,

To change the Storage Box:

Alter the last four values to change the colour etc...

Value1-->75 Do NOT Change.
Value 2(255)-->Alpha,
value 3(90)-->R,
Value 4(128)-->G,
Value 5(199)-->B

setrenderstateargb(75, 255, 90, 128, 199)
setrenderstate(147, 2304)
renderobject("storagebox", 0, 4.5, 3, 6, 0, 0, 0, 0.22, 0.22, 0.10)


Storage Item:
find:
if i~=TargetItem then
setrenderstateargb(75, 255, 0, 97, 255)
else
setrenderstateargb(75, 255, 0, 93, 199)
end
renderobject("storageitem", 1, 4.5, itemy, 6, 0, 0, 0, 0.22, 0.22, 0.15)

alter the renderstateargb values as described abouve to change all the settings for the opacity and colour.

Hope that helps you.
