It's not about the actually file, any skin I try with this accuracy centered does not work in game for me. I've tried making the transparent score-percent myself and adding it but it still does not work.h3oCharles wrote:

have you tried reloading the skin with CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+S ?
I've done that every time I add that file to the skin and when I add another skin that already has the feature in it
can you show this problem in more detail? use SHIFT+F12 to send screenshotsHyoukaForGC wrote:

i'm trying to replace menu-background.png on a skin that I didn't make with a wallpaper, I already successfully cut from a song my own welcome.wav with Audacity so I thought it wouldn't be this hard to replace an Image
I have it named correctly and it's in 1920x1080, I don't know what I did wrong

Wait, where the two template?
You can make for me one skin osu! with anime character name: Shachi Yuuri
I'm currently making an original skin. I can do graphics all fine and don't need them from other skins. If I take hit sounds from another skin is that considered a mix skin? Would I have to make or find them myself?
Using others sounds is fine, but it would be nice to give credit if you know the source.SheepeyDarkness wrote:

Quick question, can I have multiple applause sounds in a skin? In the same way you can have multiple comboburst.wav with comboburst-(n).wav, can I have applause-(n).wav?

Theres a command in the skin.ini its under [Colours] and it is named SliderBorder.
You just want to remove the numbers or you want to replace them?

How can I remove lighting effects when star2 is happening in-game?
Is it linked with star2?
Because I use pale color so the lighting LITERALLY kill my eyes.
I cant support it with the new color I use the star2 is fine but that god damn lighting.
Also I already disabled the "hit lighting" thing im talking about the effect of lighting do I have to make en empty file called lighting?

Hello, this might be a little more advanced than the things mentioned above, but I have seen a skin that makes the osu!mania stage move to the center of the screen instead of staying slightly towards the left, so I tried it for myself but can't seem to make it work.
Any ideas of how to actually do that?

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.

hi, i know that this may be a stupid question, but i can't seem to find a solution anywhere.
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.
https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/11534383 <-- this is what i'm talking about
then i noticed that the images used in the original use different resolutions and the spinner metre is always cut by few pixel.

How does one get the difficulty stars to work more as a bar instead of getting smaller? I find the scaled version very difficult to read, but when I change the version of the skin, nothing changes about the difficulty stars.

The version of skin.ini must be 2.1 or lower.
How to change size of LightingN???
After I change the version to lastest (on skin.ini), LightingN change to big .-.

So I have a skin I REALLY LIKE, however, it has no numbers and some maps can get really confusing how can I edit it so it does have numbers?
If you want dots you need to remove default-0 till default-9 (and the @2x versions if they exist) from your current skin and then you just drop the default- images from a skin in that has dots. Then you just need to copy the value of HitCircleOverlap from the skin.ini from the skin you took the dots from and put it into the skin.ini of the skin you're using.DD_33 wrote:

If you want blank circles just go to the skin.ini of your skin and put
HitCirclePrefix: Somethingunder [Fonts]
Hey just got a skin but I want to tinker with it and adjust it to my liking, the thing is that I want the circles and numbers after I click to fade away quick, but for some reason one of the skins I got has a weird option set up as I click the circle will fade away faster than the number which is kinda distracting and messing up with my reading ability.
So, i have a 3440x1440 monitor and Osu works beautifully, but obviously nobody makes skins for 21:9 (at least not that i can find).
The skins i use mostly work, but there are a few that are my favorites, but some elements are off, mainly any parts of the Skin that cover the big OSU button on the Map Selection screen in the bottom right.
Is there a way to manually move this so it covers the button like its intended to?
Spoiler box as image is big.
Another question is how to remove the Boxed area on some skins, as on 21:9 its not centered and very distracting, and some skins don't come with optional elements to replace them to get rid of em.

Could be kinda hard to move it on this particular one, but it shouldn't be a problem in general. You would just need to edit selection-mode or selection-options.

No, unless the elements are too simple and can be debated if it counts as mixing or not. Though I would recommend you do not copy them regardless of their simplicity.

I have a skin that I allow people to freely fork (if character images are replaced)
But given the new subforum rule that does not allow mixed skin even if having aurhor's permission (me). In this case, can I allow people to host forks of my skin in my skin thread?

Hmm, that is a good question. It should be fine, eventho no one probably would read the comments, which is why you may just wanna add a spoilerbox with versions other people made in the OP. (but please checj then if those are entirely made out of your elements and don't steal some from other skins)
Do you know if it's possible to use different textures for sliderscorepoint in different modes? taiko and standard share the same file by default, I'd rather avoid making 2 skin folders just to change that.

Sadly, no. There's no easy way to make osu! use a different slider score point file for standard/taiko.
I was wondering, i want to change something in a skin where the circle disappears but the number disappears a little bit later, how do i change this?

I don't think you can do that, since the only time the numbers expand is when skin.ini version 1.0 is used, and there's no way of doing the fast fading hitcircle trick on that version

If u wanna look into it is idke's skin
So, I'm looking at the skins that I have currently, and with the score numbers do I need to have them within the skin folder at small resolutions like 32x54 or 40x60?
If so, does anyone have any tips on making those small numbers not look pixelated when I do it? I currently use Paint.Net (because I don't have money for CorelPainter or Photoshop) I have done some things like going from the most usable non-pixelated resolution then resizing down to those small resolutions. I have tried using "small-preferred fonts" like Tahoma (much to my chagrin) to no avail. I tried doing the largest font possible at those small resolutions and increasing the sharpness and toying with anti-aliasing to have a non-pixelated image. Helpppp.

Think you just need to add a cursormiddle.png file. It's size doesn't matter and you can leave it blank if you want.

The "hitcircles" on WWW's skin are placed on the hitcircle combo numbers (default-n), instead of the usual hitcircle and hitcircleoverlay files, meaning they never get tinted.

skin.ini versions 1.0 to 2.1 do not have thumbnail support. All later versions do support them but I recommend using 2.5 out of all of them. Beware though, that this might break other things in the skin such as the thumbnail being positioned outside of the menu-button-background or the star indicator not working the same way.
In the skining basic what do you mean by download template ?

If you want to use the new spinner format (spinner-top/bottom/middle/middle2/glow), you need to not have spinner-background present in the skin's folder (else osu! will use the old format (spinner-background/metre/circle)) and to have "Version" in skin.ini set to any version from 2.0 to 2.5.
Thx for this post!😊
