Thread: RockCar Front End 0.0.0.82 (Skin Builder Update)

Update:

No changes to the front end (working great in my car!). The Skin Builder has taken up a good deal of development time. It is possible to now create a skin, (easier to duplicate an existing one and work with that). There are still a few bugs and usability issues (ability to drag around controls, etc.). Screens of the builder are attached.

Screen Builder Updates:
Lots of fixes and funtionality added
Works in a minimum resolution of 1024x768
Added ability to test a skin while working on it (save before testing)
