RR Holistic v2.2 Beta skin is ready for download

**mpfjr** · 02-16-2005, 01:22 PM

I was very excited about this skin until I installed it and then I noticed a few things.
The very top seems to be hidden or something. Looks like there are buttons that are above the edge of the screen. Drives me crazy. The default brushed metal skin doesn't do this so I am not sure what is going on. Maybe it is just a trick of the eye.

Also I really miss the mp3 visualization embedding.

And finally I had a hard time trying to figure out how to navigate through my music. Doesn't seem to have a way to manage the playlist. If it does, it is hard to find for me.

I would like to have the road runner cartoon guy replaced with a Nissan Logo so it looks more oem.

as said in the very first post... it's still in beta stage.... i needed other people than me to check it out
cause when u work with the skin all the time u
eventually dont notice those tiny errors that's bound to come when u make a skin completely from ground

the thing in the top must be your eyes.... guess it's the 3d effect of the buttons that make it seem to u that theres another layer of buttons just outside the screen

the visu are gonna be embedded when i update the screen

as for the playlist.... it works fine here

but this is exactly why i need u people to check it out for me

and btw... the update wont be ready before tomorow..... and i might do a some different logo's for the middle

Awesome! My car is at the dealer for service today but I have a party to go to on Friday and several people are wanting to check out my new carputer. I am hoping to show up with your skin loaded.

Show off ---- just kidding

hehe, there's a lot of little things that still need to be fixed with this skin.. one of them being the vis (which really is just an extra line in the skin file). As a beta stage, I'm pretty happy with the way it works.. and it helps me test RR for specific things..

Holistic: I have implemented the "main" code and rebuilt the navigational commands of RR to support going from any screen to any screen. The update for version 2-17-05 is out. There are also a few other skin commands added.

A little update

Fixed:

Fixed the slider thing

Fixed close button in gps menu's, external dvd menu and in launch menu

Added play/stop/prev/next and an osk button in the launch menu

Fixed so all submenu's to return to main screen exept mixer and browser menu's (thx Guino)

Cover is now shown in audioplayer

All Radio_player code is complete (fonts and stuff are now the right size)

Fixed so audio_player now shows repeat and shuffle

Fixed other minor bugs here and there
including the volume indicator in radio and audio wasn't in the same position

Still not done:

still needs to make visualisation embedded in the skin
list menu
radio menu
some minor flash components (incl. song scroll and logos)

cancelled:

decided not to do mappoint

this is the progress so far
i'll release a little later today... still need to do som flash logos before this release

expect it at around 17.00 (+1gmt) today

AWESOME,

holistic, by the way, are you going to integrate Destinator, I mean directly in RR?
Would be very very very nice

**holistic** · 02-18-2005, 06:34 AM

yup Destinator/MM is going to be integrated fully in my RR skin
next release of the skin will be final.
there's not gonna be more releases unless people finds some real bad bugs (or Guino invents some real super cool feature that have to be in the skin)

it's gonna be released this weekend

and another thing:
a new skin is on the way... estimated release 2 weeks
no screenshots... u people gotta wait for it

**camsgs3** · 02-18-2005, 08:26 AM

is there anyway to embedd the vis. into the the left box on the mp3 player , where it shows the album art,i was looking in the skin files but didnt see how i can do this

Also how come the album art doesnt display when a song is playing, the box is just empty, is this skin related or something guino has to add

thanks again
