OK guys, total Newbi here to RR so bear with me. Here is the problem I'm having. I think I have the skin installed properly, installed the font added the extra to the rr.ini, renamed the ExecTBL.ini. When I launch RR and go to setup I have nothing listed there for buttons just a empty screen. Am I missing something, again I've been using Frodo for some time so my mind is still trying to shift gears and I'm fear I'm confusing myself more that I need to. Thanks in advance for any and all help, LOVE this skin, now if I can only get it to look like yours(Chuck)! Thanks -Peter

Scratch that last post. I figured that one out, now the problem I'm having is well a couple things. When running RR with or without this skin it is very slow. I mean I click on the NAV button and it can take a couple minutes to goto that screen and get IG running. However if I launch IG from the dsesktop it is seconds if that to have it up and running. Any thoughts? Also when running IG in a 800x600 sized skin, it seems to cut the left of the IG screen off as well as looks wierd when full screen from behind. I have been playing with ini's but I think I might be making it worse. Any help there? Thanks in advance!

Hi Chuck

Great work on the skin it’s nice. Do you take donations?

I have a few problems maybe you can help me.

First the clock does not show in calendar, and the moon fase doesn’t show.
Where do I get the on screen keyboard
I have tried to register the milage.dll but it doesn’t want to register

Thanks for the help

1: I have an update coming out today or tomorrow and we will see if the clock works then.

2: The osk will come up a lot of places throughout this skin.
If you want to see if it works just go to MP3’s and click on the magnifying glass

3: Try this thread

Hi Chuck

I have updated the skin, Managed to register milage.dll. but it doesn’t want to work, do I have to download the plug in for milage?

Gauges still don’t show only compass.
Moon fase don’t show
On the mp 3 screen the buttons doesn’t work,

Sorry for all the questions, maybe I just stupid.

Thanx

Chuck · 10-02-2006, 02:39 PM

1 do you have a com port set in RR?

2 maybe a flash problem

3 and 4 sounds like you do not have the CHUCKSPATH=C:\Program Files\Road Runner\skins\chucks\ or what ever in rr.ini from my add to rr.ini

try the path thing and let me know

ABC · 10-03-2006, 10:00 AM

Hi

I have done the following.

Re install roadrunner + skin
Add your rr.ini file to roadrunner
Re install Flash8
Register flash
Register milage.

I have the path you mentioned in rr.ini

Gauges shows.

When I go to the MP3 skin the buttons doest work, the other skins buttons work(xm ect.)

When I go to the calc skin the Clock/Moon fase doesn’t show.

The notepad skin is blank, cant put anything in there

When I go to pic viewer rr freezes

Sorry for all the questions, but this one is getting the better of me, would appreciate it if you can help me

Thank you

Chuck · 10-03-2006, 10:51 AM

The MP3 buttons are not working because the clock is not loading – I think

The clock/moon and notepad are not loading

It all sounds like the chuckspath is not working

What folder is this skin installed in to?

Post your rr.ini for me

As soon as you start RR go to setup and watch the help line, what path flashes up?

Is the -picspath=E:\Camera\6-18-99 Zoo- set to your pics in rr.ini?

ABC · 10-03-2006, 11:51 AM

Hi thank you for the reply

This is my path

C:\Roadrunner\Program Files\Road Runner\Skins\Chucks

I am not at my carputer now but I will check and let you know what path is flasing up

The pic path is wrong I will fix that.

Here is my rr.ini

Chuck · 10-03-2006, 01:03 PM

You need to run RRconfig.exe and set up your RR then add the stuff in my add to rr.ini to rr.ini not replace it.

Try and let me know

Here is my rr.ini
