1. Rename the orb of your choice to "OrbCell-FACES.xm"
2. For best results, open mainmenu.xip with Winxip, then edit the very bottom of default.xap with notepad or simlar to look like this:

I've used the world orbcell and all work fine.....
@thaswiftness
remember:
ensure to add into skin directory the orbcellwall.xbx file of texture for orbcell indicated into Gasclown code:
P.S.
I've on my dash also the info panel and the date panel.

not sure what you mean
sorry new to this
I got it to work!!! one problem, gasclown, the globe i downloaded from allxboxskins.com is white... like the continents. i was wondering if there was a way to change it or if i could get yours form you? Thanks, This is awesome...
Tried this didnt work. Followed directions to a T. No errors or anything all I got was teh same orb and it all looked the same .
.
vinney - the Material ID in the code is probably set wrong. You could try changing the InnerWall_01 to MenuCell. I had this problem when i first tried to put in the globe, but after i got it working MAN does it look sweet!
others - you guys are doing something wrong - make sure you inject the globe.xm into MAINMENU.XIP AFTER YOU RENAME IT OrbCell-FACES.xm mind the capitalization!
PS - Check out my results with the Globe.
