Chevy, thanks for the .Xaps (halo org)
this is how my default Skin - sterile, looks with your (only slightly modified).xaps


tried a few different textures but you nailed it, so im using yours too.
edit - Can someone using chevy's xaps check this - when watching a dvd and you press stop (the dvdstop screen comes up) then, when you press play the audio starts but dvdstop screen is stuck on ie no video only the stop screen.

I check out the problem tonight sounds like a problem with the background change code. What version are you having the problem with lite or original?
Thanks Vintster! Here is the fixed xap except I still at work and haven't tried it.

If this is for Original then this should fix it. Heres the original

| QUOTE (dcuk @ May 3 2004, 07:05 AM) | Excellent work "vintster" the Background change code works perfectly but i've got a bit of a problem or bug.
i've used the "random bg change code" as well as the "visualiser in orb code" and although they both work perfectly, when i play any dvd movie then press stop on the remote, the green dvd stop screen comes on but when i press play i can hear the movie playing but the green dvd stop screen stays on. only way to get rid of it is to eject.
just wondering if anyone else has this problem thanks anyway |
dcuk, I think I found your problem. In default.xip/dvd.xap there are 3 instances of
| CODE | theBackground.isBound = true;
|
But since there is no longer a defined type named "theBackground" (since we changed it to "myBackgroundList") the dash glitches.
So you should be able to replace all three instances above with this:
| CODE | myBackgroundList.children[0].isBound = true;
|
But this will load up your first background. You might be able to use this to load up you saved bg, but it might not work
| CODE | myBackgroundList.children[ReturnInteger(theDashSettings[113])].isBound = true;
|
Let me know if it helps.

might call this one 'Orange Bastard' - cos during its making i lost my cellwalls (not the file just couldn't see the cells - tuned out to be a hexbe colour thing) and it took me hours to fix/figure out.

In the world before Monkey, primal chaos reigned. Heaven sought order, but the phoenix can fly only when it's feathers are grown. The four worlds formed again and yet again, as endless aeons wheeled and passed. Time and the pure essences of Heaven all worked upon a certain rock, old as creation. It became magically fertile. The first egg was named "Thought". Tathagata Buddha, the Father Buddha said "With our thoughts, we make the world". Elemental forces caused the egg to hatch. From it came a stone monkey.
The nature of monkey was irrepressible!!

Donor, to use with lite just insert all the xbx's in the folders into lites' skin.xip, renaming 'xboxbg.xbx' to 'background.xbx' and patch your xbe with with the preset.
Its very easy

(Damn I hate feeling like a focking noob ) |
in order for the skin to have reflective textures, u have to have the code for it under everything that u want to texturize in the.xaps u want.
by now i thought everyone would have the reflect texutres, since it was posted before even lite came out.
since you don't have tham texturized, just download sschevy's halo skin, (thanks to him, we all have everything texturized in lite) and use all the .xaps he included.
and than extract the "texture.xbx" from my skin's skin.xip. rename it to "metal.xbx" and make a copy of it and rename that one to "metalblue.xbx". Than extract the "default.xap" from sschevy's skin.xip, and put it in my skin's skin.xip along with the two texture files (metal.xbx and metalblue.xbx)
and replace ur xaps with sschevy's .xaps. than just rensfer the files back to ur xbox.
and guys i'll post those skins on axs very shortly.

I think it's okay, but I love your other skins like eye of the storm, clogged drain, batman logo, and the 3d landscape one on page 63. What I really don't like with this skin is the background, there has to be a better background out there. If I had to pick one it would be batman logo I love how that skin looks, and with the new movie coming out I know there is going to be more batman skins to come.

yep RapBoy, the supergirl skin is cool, the colours work very well. Even the orb 'ring' suits. The only thing is she's drawn like she's had a bad collagen injection.
