Skin Release: BMW E36 - Page 7

Borisimo · 10-18-2006, 11:46 AM

I love this skin, the amber on silver/black color scheme matches my Scion tC dash perfectly. Keep the updates coming!

I love the functionality of this skin but I've never really liked the Ericsson font.

Just wondering if anyone else has found a good substitute that fits in nicely?

Thanks,
Z

Could someone convert the International release (in English) PSD Source label that contains "RIP" to "GAS"? I am using the gasfinder plugin and would liketo launch it from the "RIP" label as I don't use that function.

I have no PS skills whatsoever and if someone out there can do it quickly(if its a quick thing) it would be appreciated.

It could be a wrong setting in rr.ini, please double check to have the option "exitmode" sets to 0 (exitmode=0) in your rr.ini.

It's for a future implementation of the CD indicator in RR, currently it would have to be always off.

I do have a question for you - is it possible that when selecting different videos in video view it brings up the .jpg associated with that file in the picture window on the left? That would be great.

It's already working. The box on the left shows the JPG contained in the same video's folder (video art) like the albun art in the audio_browser.

I too don't like the Ericsson font, but unfortunately it's the only dot stile font with the complete set of characters like ñ é ó à.

Robby. I figured it out.

In my quest to learn how to make a skin, I took a look at the button command for the close button in the RRSkin Editor

You have it set to close FreeDrive, so I just changed it to Quit.

I saved the skin file and overwrote what was in my skin folder and it worked perfectly.

Thanks for the help though.

I'm using GIMP and trying to change the radio button to open a new screen for my game emulators.

I can't figure out once I have the radio #1 layer selected, to actually change the text to "Mame". Everytime I dub-click it wants to change the name of the layer.

I'm not familiar with GIMP but I'm a fast learner. Its pretty cool software...esp for free!!

I don't know how GIMP handles the layers and I'm not sure if it's 100% compatible with Photoshop CS PSD files, however you can try to delete the radio text layer and create a new one.

Com10 = iGuidance
Com11 = NetStumbler
Com12 = *spare* < want to use this for the built-in skin compass.

Shad.

Same question. ShadOLurk said he solved it but I dont understand what he did.

I have the following
Com 6: GPS Port (bluetooth)
Com 9: NRoute

What do I need to do to get the compass to work? Does it only work with iGuidance/Mappoint and nothing else?

You need to add the available port to rr.ini.
the skin also needs to have labels for the compass/speedo to work
"GPSHDG", "GPSSPD"

Thanks, I got this to work. It needed a port splitter.

kyjoe · 11-09-2006, 03:57 AM

hey Robby, I am in the process of changing all the red glow highlights to blue. I have all the skins done except launch and external gps. I can not get photoshop to open up these two skins. I tried the english download and also the Italian download. Same problem. Any ideas??

bimmeracer · 11-12-2006, 09:45 PM

do you know how i can add the road runner clock speedo to this skin?
