This is reported working for other people, and i tested this specific feature on 2 other machines with no previous RR installs.

Did you remove files from this dir?
The script is fairly straight forward, in that it simply does a file copy from one dir to another
The only things i can think of that would break the script are,
1. you removed the files to copy from the ALT folder by mistake (maybe cut & past instead of copy?)

2. You have RR installed to a non default path.
Files that are copied are copied into this dir
C:\Program Files\Road Runner\SKINS\LSXVOID1.5

if you renamed the skin to something else, dont have RR installed into that dir then it wont work.

Yeah, I have it installed to C:\RoadRunner. Will this affect any other LSX VOID skin functionality?

Yeah I can see that messing it up, throw it in the default path.

ok, so that is the problem.

At one point it was strictly required to have RR installed to the path i said in the previous post. This was a while ago and since then have removed all path dependencies. This new feature however does require that path to work.

In the future please try to include as much information as possible about any issues and or your setup environment. Otherwise i end up guessing what the problem is just like you.
This skin isnt just a skin, there are numerous scripts for different things that aren't supported in RR by default.

Ill try to figure out a way to get the script to work no matter what dir you have RR installed to, but in the mean time if you want it to work you have to put RR to the default install path.

Other skins are very quick, the alpine is the fastest. This only happens on my via. my p4 carpc and my desktop are responsive. Guess its a hardware limitation in my M10000

liquid_smoke,

I want to thank you for putting up with all my recent questions. I'm new to RR and your skin and I've been very impressed and I am still learning how to use the software to its maximum. I finally got everything I want working with your help and was able to reverse the playlist colors so I can see better in the day. Yeah, its very easy to change the skin around. Keep up the great work!

np,
what colors did you end up going with? On my side i ended up changing the current playing track color to yellow, stands out a bit more than the red.

Ill have to play with it more, the playlist is one of those areas ive never really been happy with, there are things i want to do with it but aren't supported in RR without using flash

i loaded up the alpine skin and honestly i dont see any speed difference with anything. IMO the volume in RR with any skin kind of changes slow but its the same across the board.
Is your carpc the p4? If so what is the via for?
