My replay button is like this: http://puu.sh/94LB6/5d9d2bbe14.jpg when it should be like this: http://puu.sh/94LH7/05d06461d9.png

My skin.ini: http://puu.sh/94LZf/0df1e800b2.png

I used the original Life skin, then I customized it to my liking. Added different cursor, slider, spinner, ranking letters, scorebar..pretty much everything except the hitcircles/mods and such. Is there any way to fix those? :v btw, I'm no wiz at skinning, all I know how to do is just replace all the parts of it with different ones so yeah ._.
You have this skin in a folder named as "User". It will always force the latest Version on this folder, ignoring your set Version number.

Just rename your folder to something else like "Life (Edit)" or User2"
Great, everything was working fine for awhile until this happened. http://puu.sh/94tUF/89079b85e2.jpg

Instead of fading into a black background it just stayed on the songs storyboard. I just keep having problem after problem :x

I have the same problem as Tr1cky, though i was able to fix it on two skins by changing the version number to "2.0". But on my other skins the the skin.ini does not have a version section and I can not fix it, and I have already tried to add a version into the script and it did not work.


I would add screen shots but I am to much of a forum noob to figure out how.

Peppy, I have a question...

Why did you remove this feature? Was it because you make edits of the skin.ini to be specified the latest element on a skin?
Does this make things easier for us or smtg?

Yeah, I'm still having problems with the spinners. I'll tweak with some stuff and it'll work for awhile, but then it'll just go back like this http://puu.sh/965jQ/71c5e12a72.jpg

i've tried everything not sure what else to do. guess ill just play with full background dim or something

Add SpinnerFadePlayfield: 1 to your skin.ini. it will make the background black again.

I like the idea, also translated this little guide into russian, but I think, the tech support forum is going to fill the hell up with a lot of questions.

For some reason, Millhiore said it still being worked on. Pretty much I am just waiting till the update so we can be able to use our customized ryuutas again.

New skin version uses states like pippi-don on taiko for the catcher.

But keep in mind these are subject to change.

With the skin Lumiance: Planckian Locus, the Taiko hit markers are all out of whack. In version 1 and 2, they are skew, but version: latest fixes the error. Also, in every version, the spinner sound in Taiko pitches downward, but pitches up in normal Osu! mode. The error on the ranking screen is only in version 1.


Version 1

Version 2

Version Latest

Leave it at latest or set as version 2.1 if there are no other visual problems accompanying it.

The only problems I can find are the health bar not lining up properly with it's background, and the sound of the taiko spinner decreasing in pitch and not increasing. I'll just set the version to 2.1.

But if I set the skin to Version 2, then my standard skin won't work becaudse it's a Version 1 one. So do I have to seperate and switch skins every time I want to play Taiko now?

You'd have to point me to a copy of your skin and a shot showing the misalignment.

This sounds like your mixing element versions or the skin isn't "whole" which is a no no... I assume your taiko skin is missing some playfield elements which it's choosing to use the new versions instead. If you are using version 1 elements then you will need to populate version 1 taiko elements for example ones found in the old default template or the taiko skin made by luigihann and many other existing skins.

I've been working on my new klonoa skin and when i went to test it out it just shows the template skin, is this the reason or am i doing something wrong?

Here is a picture of the error during a song.

On a side note, here is what it looks like in the skin selection screen, which is completely different

Remove score-marker.png or fix scorebar colour to fit your scorebar.

I actually did something different. I changed score-marker into scorebar-ki, kidanger, and kidanger2, and it fixed both of my problems.

I read the thread and still can't fix it >__< tried 1 2.0 2.1, nothing fixes it >_>

if you want, you can just use the "spinner-top.png" file as the only spinner image (I mean the spinner-bottom.png is just blank then just edit the spinner-top.png file and I'm sorry that i can't help with the spinner-meter file :( )

For Taiko, it seems that using Taiko skin fixes the problems, but since you cannot download it anymore:

Well, you can get it by clicking here

(Maybe post this link in all topics asking about taiko bug?
Ofcourse also click Enable Taiko skin for Taiko mode

The only problem i have now is the spinner circle and background using the original background and spin circle how do i solve it?

Ok, i need help. Since the last few updates my skin breaks more and more, now the song selection became unreadable too.

No matter of using Version 1 or 2, my song selection menu text is missalinged and nearly unreadable and the taiko elements missalinged. In version 2 my spinner dissapears and gets replaced by the default one.

EDIT; On that note, there a few unskinable ui things broken too.

This is only because the skin version is not the latest. This does NOT fix the taiko skin in the latest version

it could be. at skin.ini, set "Version" to "Version: 2.0" then you can use the old spinner image as "spinner-top.png" and just blank the pixels of "spinner bottom.png".(as I said this already...I just wanted to do step-by-step) if you don't want the spinner appearing with double white frames, you can just erase all pixels of the "spinner-middle.png"(I DON'T mean to delete the file or it will still show up if you do) and use the old ranking screen files such as the graph, the "perfect", the score bar and anything that appears on the ranking screen. (just let me know if this answers your question or not... I may not be right sometimes :/ )
