Thread: Centrafuse 1024 x 768 skins?

I have yet to dive into it, but I definately want to customize my screen for 800 x 480.

It's really not that hard... just time consuming. If you don't have it already, go download the trial version of PaintShopPro. Then go through each of the images and resize them to whatever dimensions you want. Then, in PSP, use the SELECT tool to draw boxes around each button/hot-spot/clickable-area and note the X,Y, length and width. Put those values into the appropriate spots in the skin.xml file.

There's probably a better tool out there, something for automatically making image maps or something, but I haven't looked around much.

Oh well.

So have you figured out how to resize the screen/buttons for Copilot 8 in guidance mode? I was looking at the ini files in the app directory, some of them looked promising...

you don't need a new skin... Just fill in 1024 for the width and 768 for the height in setup...

I guess what he is really asking for, is a 4:3 native skin file. If he goes fullscreen with the WS skin, it will look distorted, no?
