I'm trying to make a skin and my sliders look like this (http://i.imgur.com/YTO02oa.png) How do I change it so there's a hit circle over the slider tail?

Depends on how the skin makes it so. If the skin use a blank png for the sliderendcircle, just delete or rename the file. If the hitcircle was integrated into the default-# png and the hitcircle a blank png, then you have to use a hitcircle.

Ah I figured it out. The template I was using had a blank sliderendcircle and I didnt realize :P

Recently, I've seen about 2 or 3 people who has this: On their main menu, their osu! logo is modified, so instead of a pink background osu! logo, they somehow modded it into the osu! logo with a background of their choice, including anime pictures and stuff...
Has anyone got an idea on how this could be done or if it's not possible, explain what was going on?

Legally you can't as far as i know (if you're talking about customizing the logo itself in the start menu)...
Pretty sure You'll get banned if You've been found out customizing the UI outside the skin folder elements You can customize (like the UI Fonts, non-supporter background, etc.)

But if You're talking about the background under the logo, add a "menu-background.jpg" inside your skin folder (and You have to become an osu!supporter to activate it)

Hi, just a quick question, as I'm new to this game and forum. I've been playing mania, and am really enjoying it, but the differences when changing between key numbers is pretty jarring. I mainly play 7K, but stepping down to easier 4/5k maps is disconcerting.

So, I'd like to make the lower key counts use the same style as 7k (i.e. have 7 columns), simply with some columns unused. Is this possible? And if so, can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Also, I'm using the Clearium skin at the moment, so I'd like to edit that one, if possible.

Right now I have a skin with no numbers in it, and that's what I want, but the thing is, there's nothing in the middle, not even a dot. Is there a way to put like a dot or something besides numbers in each circle?

Maybe your default-#s are blank pngs...... if thats so then replace them with numbers

Hello~ ^^/

I have a question + need help regarding hitcircles

1.- Is it possible to have a separate hitsound "pack" for osu-mania? (like taiko has)

2.- Every time I add outer glow to my hitcircle, it looks.. like smudged on the inner ring (maybe it's just me.. but I cannot get a perfect circle)
Maybe i'm using too much "feather" (using around 8.8)


Please tell me if it looks symmetrical, because it's been breaking my *** for the past few days :(

(yeah, I have a slight OCD when it comes to this...this is why I was unsure to create my own thing)

thanks for the help guys :D

sadly in German.

  1. click "File", then "Export as":


  2. choose the location for your file and change the file ending to ".png". After that, click "Export":


  3. click "Export":


  4. Done:
Have a nice day too.

In osu! select the skin you want to edit, then click Open current skin folder.
You will then see all the files you can edit.

I skinned a black selection-tab. Everything is fine with the tab, but I have a problem with the text on it. The text on the active selection-tab is black, on inactive white. Black text on a black background isn't good. I can't found an option to change the color of the text in the wiki or the forum. Is there really no option to change the colour of the text? :(

hm, SongSelectInactiveText: and SongSelectActiveText: followed by the RGB value should do the trick? (in skin.ini)

Nope, that doesnt work. It isnt skinable at the moment.
That obly change the colour of the text on the menu-bg

Oh, I apologise, I completely misunderstood what you were asking for lmao
I didn't even know that could be skinned, so yeah, as Lyawi said I dont think there is a fix.
Using the search function in the Feature Request subforum would be the next thing to do, I suppose

i guess playing around with the osu!ui.dll isn't allowed, right?

i read about it:
- Manipulation or alteration of the client such as score hacking, macroing, affecting the timescale on which the client operates, auto-aim, and anything that generally removes the human element from play is considered cheating. If you have to ask if something is considered cheating, and you have to use an external program to achieve that effect, it probably is.
- Altering gameplay elements through any method BESIDES beatmap skins/client skins is considered as possible cheating and will be dealt with harshly.

on the other hand all of the said things don't apply to changing it. i mean it would only change visual elements which don't benefit me when playing. it would open up doors to skin more elements though. i mean it also says besides beatmap / client skins. i'm confused.

It IS possible to change the COLOURS of the SongSelectionActiveText and also of the SongSelectionInactiveText. Obviously, therefore are the "SongSelectionActiveText" and "SongSelectionInactiveText" settings in the skin.ini ....

Stop talking bullshit...

Sorry, when I mentioned this, I mistook the component they meant. While those two things do change colours, it only does so on the song selection button things, not the thing they were looking for.

I'm not talking bullshit. U weren't ble to understood what I mean.
I asked for a colour change of the text on the SELECTION-TAB. This two options only change the colour of the text on the MENU-BUTTON-BACKGROUND. ;)

the thing is i've seen content that showed someone modifying the osu!ui.dll to alter the appearance of the main menue. it was done to get the bg for free without having to buy supporter. now i am a supporter and this guy told me i can skin this if i am a supporter. but i havn't heard of this. is it true or does he just not know what he's talking about :?

That kind of editing is not allowed. What is so hard to understand about it?

You modify game internal files you are not supposed to access which is breaking community rules and licences.
