Are you sure you're in the right thread? If you don't have any artistic skill, you're not going to be able to make a skin. And if you're talking about making an actual beatmap, please don't hijack other threads.
Trust me, I would never hijack a thread for that purpose.

I am merely implying I have no skill or understanding in how to create interesting skins that I could use in my beatmaps.

The simplest way is to just jump in. Take a skin like the template one, and try replacing the images and sounds. Try changing things in skin.ini and see what happens (lines beginning with // are comments, they'll be ignored by osu). Look at other skins and maps with skins you like and look in their directories to see how they did things.

Ok, something's gone wrong here:



Only my "default-0" is used in the combo number up top. The rest seems to be from the default skin!

Errr... Screenshot is not enough to tell what it's wrong, maybe post your skin here so I can test it. All I can tell now is that you could mess up with files names.

it's font combo related.
put in nK.ini and add FontCombo:score (as default the 'score'-value is read)
also it still buggy for me... as the current score-0 is not the fontcombo based but scoreprefix based. (in my skin bug thread)

[14:37:18] <+ReiUsa> woc, what is the 'customize combo font' support ? (just asking because the skin bug)

[15:24:54] <+woc2006> hi
[15:24:54] <+woc2006> just used as prefix for combo images.
[15:24:54] <+woc2006> combo-0 combo-1
[15:25:14] <+ReiUsa> is the prefix changeable in skin.ini ?
[15:25:32] <+ReiUsa> as the combo-X not exists but it loads score-X instead
[15:26:03] <+woc2006> never
[15:26:47] <+ReiUsa> testing with combo default score prefix now~
[15:29:33] <+ReiUsa> the combo-X doesn't work :( still using score-X anyway (except score-0 which still loaded as the ScorePrefix)
[15:29:39] <+ReiUsa> (details : t/101814&#41;
[15:31:19] <+woc2006> have you write ComboFont in *K.ini?
[15:31:30] <+ReiUsa> oh wait.. no..
[15:31:44] <+ReiUsa> orz ( i need the current template *runs)
[15:32:51] <+ReiUsa> ComboFont: 1/0/String ?
[15:35:12] <+woc2006> FontCombo: combo
[15:35:12] <+woc2006> then throw combo-0 combo-1 etc in your skin
[15:35:14] <+woc2006> or FontCombo : anywords
[15:39:31] <+ReiUsa> it works (but the problem when the fontcombo is not present, it loads the score- prefix which i think default but doesn't load the index 0)
[15:42:17] <+ReiUsa> (or even when the fontcombo is not present shouldn't it loads the scoreprefix as the default before score prefix?)

I read the FAQ but couldn't find the info I wanted. For OsuMania, is it possible to make the first four keys (left to right; not symmetrical) black, the next four keys white, and the last key black?

Hey, where do I find the "skin.ini" thing?

In any existing skin. Including template that you can download here.
Lou-kun
And how can I add it to my own skin?

Just find it inside of skin and copy it to your own. D:

each osu!Skin has its own skin.ini and can be found on the osu!Skin's folder.
e.g. C:/Program Files/Osu!/Skins/amigo/skin.ini (location varies on where you installed osu!)

Lou-kun wrote:

3 options

  • 1. refer to the default's skin.ini and tweak it.
  • 2. copy other's skin.ini and edit to your own preference
and the last... (this might be difficult)
  • 3. try freelance and start from nothing and save as "skin.ini" (just refer from the 1st post under a spoilerbox named Skin.ini for the codes)

Is there still no way to do this?

The graphic for the osu!mania button is special-mania.

how do you change the menu like that? i thought it is only working on the main menu??? what other screens can you set your own background? :shock:

special-background.png
while options-background.png is deleted from resource (replaced by menu-background.jpg) by peppy~
OsuMe65
inputoverlay-background.png must be constructed from top to bottom because osu! rotates it by 90° to the right. Or construct it from bottom to top and rotate the image by 180°.

random guess...

Nope, of course. I hate put playfield with any kind of picture xD
Look at those picture... :p

Rei Hakurei
the arrow there, and the leaderboard BG (as i guess right :P) is the skinnable part based from the SSs(screenshots) there
