Hi I'm using icon code with my Halo2 final dash which you can find on page 62 MS Dashboard Skins, but the icons are to transparent. I tried to add a material to them like on memoryx game cubes, but that results in the Hard Drive Menu not opening. Here is a picture of what I mean, you can see the chrome arm behind the cube.

pwcracker2002, here it is:

Extract:

CODE

Music_PlayEdit2.xip/default2.xap

And search for:

CODE

DEF cubo Transform
{
fade 1
scale 0.75 0.75 0.75
translation -46.9 55.1 -205
rotation 0 0 1 3.14
children
[
Spinner
{
rpm 1
axis 1 1 -1
children
[
Shape
{
appearance Appearance
{
material Material
{
}
texture ImageTexture
{
url "nada.tga"
alpha true
}
}
geometry Box
{
}
}
]
}
]
}

Cut it and paste it below:

CODE

DEF MU_L3_text_custom Transform
{
children
[
Transform
{
scale 0.8 0.8 0
translation -0.2 -0.1 -0.2
children
[
Shape
{
appearance Appearance
{
material MaxMaterial
{
name "NavType"
}
}
geometry Text { translate true font "Body" text "RANDOM" justify "middle"}
}
]
}
]
//rotation -0.999900 -0.008726 0.008958 -1.545000
scale 0.124700 0.124700 0.124700
scaleOrientation 0.198600 0.025940 -0.979700 -0.006882
translation 47.130001 -58.169998 204.0999941
}

]
rotation -1.000000 0.000000 0.000000 -3.168000
translation -45.549999 57.200001 -203.899994
}
]
}
]
}
]
}
]
}
]
}

That's all.

That is not all, here is the real fix, check out the screenshot. If you put it all the way at the bottom the cube will not move with the rest of the menu and will appear in front of the harddrivebg.

There is two ways to do this first you can move the music orb so the icon is in the orb, but the music orb will be in front of the l2 menu a little. Or you can just put the icon code above DEF audio_panel Transform and then the icon will be infront of the music orb.

IF you want the icon in the music orb you must move this following code above of the DEF audio_panel Transform.

Add put the icon code above the code you just moved like this

QUOTE

DEF cubo Transform
{
//fade 0.5
scale 0.780000 0.780000 0.780000 //scale 0.75 0.75 0.75
translation -46.880001 55.130001 -205.00000 //translation -46.880001 55.130001 -205.00000   //translation -46.9 55.1 -205
rotation 0 0 1 3.14
children
[
Spinner
{
rpm 2
axis 0 1 0 //axis 1 1 -1
children
[
   Shape
   {
appearance Appearance
{
   material Material
   {
   }
   texture ImageTexture
   {
url "nada.tga"
//alpha true
   }
}
geometry Box
{
}
   }
]
}
]
}

Also as you can see I made the icon a little bigger and change the rotation so it only rotates clockwise which I got to say looks alot better.

Now that is all!!!!!
