That is V.5!! make sure you don't have it on cache or something -- check the window title for the version.

Seen that before. Download only that file (plug it in google); copy it to c:\windows\system32 then register it manually. The problem will be fixed.

I have just found another bug..

When saving the skin, it does not put a blank line under any INC lines or at least the last one. I was editing the DFX 3.0 skin and couldn't figure out why my plugin wasn't getting initialized.

Origanal skin file(top few lines):

Code:

RoadRunner Skin
RRScreen menu.
menu_OFF.png,menu_OFF.png,menu_ON.png,menu_OFF.png

INC,DFX_Font_Color.txt
INC,Plugins.txt

L,516,4,71,25,#DFX1R#,#DFX1G#,#DFX1B#,16,"Arial","TEMP2","left"
L,408,4,101,25,#DFX1R#,#DFX1G#,#DFX1B#,16,"Arial","=Computer:","right"

To fix it I had to manually edit the skin file to add a blank line for rr to read it correctly.

Saved skin file, the one that doesn't work:

Code:

RoadRunner Skin
RRScreen menu.
menu_OFF.png,menu_OFF.png,menu_ON.png,menu_OFF.png
INC,DFX_Font_Color.txt
INC,Plugins.txt
L,516,4,71,25,#DFX1R#,#DFX1G#,#DFX1B#,16,"Arial","TEMP2","left"
L,408,4,101,25,#DFX1R#,#DFX1G#,#DFX1B#,16,"Arial","=Computer:","right"

Manually fixed file looks like below, and now works again.

Code:

RoadRunner Skin
RRScreen menu.
menu_OFF.png,menu_OFF.png,menu_ON.png,menu_OFF.png

INC,DFX_Font_Color.txt
INC,Plugins.txt

L,516,4,71,25,#DFX1R#,#DFX1G#,#DFX1B#,16,"Arial","TEMP2","left"
L,408,4,101,25,#DFX1R#,#DFX1G#,#DFX1B#,16,"Arial","=Computer:","right"

That's interesting.. the lack of the empty lines should not affect how RR parses it.. still, it should be placing those spaces.

Blue ZX3 · 12-17-2007, 09:39 AM

Thats what I thought, but rr seems to not like it, as the plugin line doesn't get read until there's at least one line below it...

Blue ZX3 · 01-09-2008, 06:59 PM

I have also found out that its not just the INC lines that have this prob, it can happen with the X,xxx plugin lines too...

Please fix or have a look at when you get a chance..

Many Thanks!!

Well I've been successfully using v0.5 for some time now, then I go to fire it up to do some skinning and I am greeted with an error. Re-Download the archive from the mirror site and same thing. Any ideas what this is or how it can happen? Just started throwing this error tonight. Only thing I did different to my system is update to RR 12/13/07 release which really has nothing to do with the skin editor. Anyway I'm stumped.

EDIT
Well opened up photoshop and started more art, hit the skineditor shortcut and bam it launched. Seems to be solved, come to think of it I always have photoshop open when skineditor is running and update art "on the fly" so I think the editor just doesn't feel like playing unless his partner in crime, adobe is running.

I've been tryin to download the skin editor but the link seems to be dead. Anyone have a different link?
