*sigh*

CODE

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:

CODE
texture ImageTexture
      {
         alpha true
         url "orbcellwall.xbx"
      }


P.S.
I've on my dash also the info panel and the date panel.

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 sad.gif.

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.
