If you take a look at the ranking letter, you can see there is a gray line on the border. that happens with my mods as well. idk how to fix it.
Given that the system uses the images in the Skin's folder, something must have caused the final edition to have the said border.
(There shouldn't be any border, if you didn't make any while using an edition softw'.)
In easy words, you might have to remake the elements in which their background has this problem.
If - even after painting the background in the wanted color - the problem's still here, I don't know how to help.

Looking at the files, there appears to be no gray border in them. However when they show up in osu!, the gray border appears.45Traeath wrote:

Is there any way to make my cursortrail shorter?
I'm using cursormiddle.png to make it nice and smooth, but it's huuuuuuuuugely long. Unfortunately, deleting cursormiddle.png makes it extremely short and choppy.
I made a comparison in the picture below. Moving my cursor in an infinity-loop at a medium speed.
Basically I want my trail to be like the top one, except maybe half the length. (And less bright, but that's just the nature of rainbows, can't fix that without breaking the universe...)

Just a quick thing. If slider track override can change the colour of the slider, what would the values need to be to make it transparent?
My skin already had that but there is no box >.<RockRoller wrote:

Adding transparency isn't possible. RGB gets used by osu' skin.ini and not RGBa (which would support transparency).Neko67 wrote:

The nearest you can get to a transparent slider body is using 0,0,0.

That will simply make each individual image smaller, but the trail won't be much shorter...RockRoller wrote:

Though maybe if I only decrease the width, hmm... You've given me an idea! Thanks
EDIT: Nope, still just makes it smaller, not shorter.
"Spinner" and "Spinner-Metre" reverted to default, what do I do?
I have two folders, both are completely original (the first was made by a friend, I added some stuff in the second with a partial copy of the first).
The first version works in its respective folder, but the second doesn't when it's literally the same elements.

And of course if you're using @2x.png versions, make sure that your screen resolution is in the HD range, otherwise it'll revert to the regular versions; Which will be the defaults if none exist.
All the names are checked.
There weren't any "2x" elements in the initial folder; so I modified the second folder's images towards "both directions":
- the SC's dimensions are 750x750 and the SM's are 1160x834
- I made images half as big and gave the "2x" name to the first edition, but it didn't work, so I made bigger images (and the other things to do in that situation)
Nothing solved the issue, even after reloading and rewriting the version in "Skin.ini".
(What surprises me is that Taiko uses them properly.)

Just add a spinner-background.png (can be a blank 1x1 pixel). That makes osu! use the old spinner (the one that uses the metre).

I'm making a skin and I have what I want already, but I'm not sure how to apply it to the game.
I can post a screencap of the folder if needed.
I've tried putting input into the skin.ini but idk if my skin.ini is in the right format or what, but I just need help.
I have files for hitbursts, spinner background, and section pass/fail. 10 files in all, not counting the skin.ini.
So...what do I do to show the skin ingame?
So I'm, like most people here, making a skin.
Now I have been working on a follow like for like, three days now but it never seems to work like I want it to.
I tried copying the style of another skin, where the ends of the line fade out.
like this
And basicly remade my follow point in the same way he had.

my files, tho my follow line is white so you cant see it.
however, instead of the smooth, solid like he has, mine turns out to look like this ingame.
I can't really seem to find any 'tutorials' regarding follow lines like this, so I was wondering if someone here is willing to help me out and explain?

make the line longer, that's the only solution. The problem is indeed happening, and there's no way of avoiding it, cuz the gaps depend on CS size, something we don't have control of.AkiraYasha wrote:

It does work.
Often made mistakes in the skin.ini-file are:
- lowercases where they should not be: (e.g.: version instead of Version.
- incorrect spelling (e.g.: Colors instead of Colours)
- having spaces before or after the line
- using a variable that is not supported
- not putting a line under their correct header (e.g.: ComboPrefix: must be put under the [Fonts] section)
- forgetting to put the headers into brackets (these -> ["Header"] )
- the file is not an .ini-file (skin.ini.txt instead of skin.ini)
In short: the skin.ini-file is very case sensitive and uses UK english for most parts.
While it is true this tutorial should have been updated long ago, it's not the main topic and with lazer in development writing a new one is pointless since most of today's elements might no longer work like they do now in the lazer client.

i'm creating a skin by making small changes to the Seouless used by shigetora on twitch and when trying to change the background of the spinner i cannot manage to fit the backgroung, which has an outer glow, with the spinner meter, that contains the image i want to show when spinning.

then i noticed that the images used in the original use different resolutions and the spinner metre is always cut by few pixel.
