Great! Thanks for that, it’s a big help.
I don’t think these are ratio-dependant files so they should be fine. I’ve downloaded them onto my phone successfully and i’ll check them -soon-

So is there any way to request certain features for this skin? I really like almost everything i'm seeing, but i'm a orb-skin based player, and bar-style isn't something I can do effectively, however, this whole entire skin is just amazing looking.

I'm assuming you're referring to Mania.
Unfortunately, as much as I would love to cover circle mania, it would take up quite some time. (I'm sure i'm famous for complaining about my lack of time so here you go)
This would need a complete redesign of how Nightgate's mania works so it's basically skinning the whole thing from scratch. _time_ consuming adding to the fact that lots of design has gone into all the alignments and over-spacing of stuff to achieve the minimalistic look.
Sorry that I can't help you with this!

It is possible, no doubt. Maybe even I could make the orb-skin addition, if I had time.
My take on things is that you have to put in effort to do things, instead of always relying on other people.
If there is something you don't like, change it yourself.
Can't change it yourself? Ask someone to assist you. But don't ask them to do it for you. You'll learn more if you do it yourself.
My opinion about the current mania bar-skin, from a mania players perspective who plays with bar-skin, is that it's fine.
Though I'd rather use a more simplistic skin for denser maps. There's just too much going on with the hitlight.
I manually set the ColorLightX to 0,0,000 for that.
Another thing I'd fix is to set the ColorX to 0,0,0,255. It simply distracts too much if you don't play with 100% dim.
Edit: typo

Thanks for the feedback. Have you not seen the preferences? I think theres a less-flashy hitlight in there. If you have, what would you put in for a hitlight? I think I might be able to implement because hitlights are pretty easy to put in. (i’m more scared of uploading the change though because updates are a pain)
also, what’s ColourX and what does that do?

I 100% agree with that. I'd be more than okay with taking the attempt and uploading my own changes if the post and skin creator agrees, I don't want to take creative liberty with someone else's work without that okay though.

Well, I’ll give the okay to you!
I’d love to see what you make!
If you want to share, pass it to me and maybe i’ll merge/link it here in the post with your name!

Small Fixes:
- Refine top bar in song select.
I still need to implement these changes to GREEN.
The alignment of the dotted followpoints change as the CS changes (I think. Maybe it's just HR, but I can't fix this issue as this is osu's fault.)
Editing the mania background to become darker is too time consuming (desperate for time) so I'll leave that as it is. People would just use background dim anyway.
Finally got my homework done. I only have one day till I get a stack more though. Enjoy my intensive care!
- NIGHTGATE RED BETA NOW OUT
Come test out Nightgate in RED! Very kindly patched by the amazing DaPrimeAtce.
We need to figure out the preferences, as most of them disappeared for some reason. But otherwise, the main skin seems all good to my eyes.
If you see any issues, please report them with the version details seen in the mode select panel.

also why is rebrand.ly an unsafe site, Chrome and COMODO are not happy with it
ok, I got it, but then I look at the colors and it doesn't seem right... it's FF0208 and not FC2738

Yeh, it was patched by DaPrimeAtce using hue shift method so colours are probably not that precise.
But well, it works and it’s a decently high standard don’t you think?
I haven’t had much problems woth rebrandly, maybe it’s unsafe because people do dodgy things with it... Tell me if theres an issue though. I just use it to cound downloads and thats all.

If you want something more reliable that can track downloads I recommend you use MediaFire instead.
Topic Starter
Mediafire doesn’t seem to have a direct download link, so i’d need to redirect to their page.
Then their page pops up ads everywhere, and the actual download button is reletivley hard to find.
Bad experience = -yuo- won’t use

Not to mention, half the time the link doesn't work if you upload to MediaFire.

It's actually possible to get direct download link by inspecting the download button. But it's extremely unreliable. Sometimes it works, sometimes it just redirects you back to the download page. Basically it's a mess.
Topic Starter
yep;
mediafire: nope.
Same goes with Mega, Good presentation, no ads (well, they advertise themselves a lot which is the same level of annoying), but downloading is weird and no direct again.
Dropbox was great. It had an easy direct download link, automatic with no UI, no ads, easy download, no weird GDrive Virus Scanning. It was the best one and was my previous system but it's download limit of 20GB/day and a ban for a week if it's reached left many users unable to download. (which, i'm quite proud of but also annoyed at. Thanks everyone!)

That's because MEGA uses end to end encryption. The file is stored on their servers in encrypted form, and they can't decrypt it unless they have the key (which they don't). When you download a file, it's decrypted on your computer, not on their servers. So yeah, no direct.
Topic Starter
Ah, that's cool. Mega imo is pretty good for personal / person-to-person use, but not so much in the case of skinning (person-to-world)... Encryption wouldn't really do much
EDIT:
-------------------RED UPDATE-------------------
10 OCT 2018 [RED b10-10]
-------------------ORANGE: BUG TESTING-------------------
Yes, Nightgate Orange is nearly ready, It's being bugfixed at the moment. The plan between me and DaPrimeAtce:
DaPrimeAtce converts the rest of Red and Orange files, Preferences especially.
I scan through his work to fix bugs and visual anomalies, also add my recent design improvements.
Together we aim to finish Red and Orange sometime soon. I'm sniping my homework the moment they come at me. Lets Go!!
EDIT:
- Not much has changed, but I've merged my new multi designs and new menu buttons. Also fixed the info panel (ish, date says 8 not 10 because thats when I did them, and it's such a tedious task to fix so I'm not gonna do it for a silly 8.)
If you see any issues, please report them with the version details seen in the mode select panel.
Seriously, Updating all the screen sizes and colours is suuuch a mind-melting task.

Yeah, the encryption is good if you want to transfer private information, but skins aren't really that private anyway. I have to say the only reason that I use MEGA was the 50 GB of storage.
i just want the white version but its gonna be the last one right? seeya in 2 yrs oof

- hopefully not -
I'm working on these next, chosen based on Demand:
Blue
CREAM
Purple
I think DaPrimeAtce will work on these next:
Cyan
Yellow
We're working to finish the preferences folder for red and get Orange up to beta currently.
Sorry for any delay! (like, 2 years you say) Im just sooo busy it's hard to believe. Now i'm sniping any assigned work as quickly as I can to get this done for you all. Hopefully they don't get me.

the skin is amazing the only problem i have is that the slider circle is too big and the spinner is too distracting. If you could make the slider follow circle smaller and maybe tone down the spinner brightness or take out some elements of the spinner it will be perfect. Also the slider sound is pretty distracting and you could tone down a bit the colors for the 100, 50, and the miss and maybe make them a bit smaller. If you decide to change this pls do it for the pink version too i liked it the most
Topic Starter
Have you tried the skin’s preferences (settings) system?
Open the skin folder and you’ll see a 2 - Preferences folder.
I think you’ll find most of what you want in there -
- less slider ball
- less spinner
- different hitbursts
yeh just take a look!
Note: Unofficially coloured and beta colours do not have this just yet.

As usual, if you see any issues, please report them with the version details seen in the mode select panel.
Just thought I'd post a fun fact here:
I wanted to explain this since long ago, but never actually got to it.
I've heard many 'complaints' about the spinner being ultra distracting. This is intentional as it's designed to grab your attention when it appears AS FAST AS POSSIBLE. This is why theres a giant SPIN! text, elements that are waay out from the middle and four 'inverted corners' pointing to the middle of the spinner.
This makes you able to recognise the spinner in a SNAP and results in less 'recognition lag' between you, noticing the spinner appear and you actually knowing what to do and spin it.
Of course though, there's the options if you want to dial it down a little.

All of these issues are in red?
Also, All red combo colours are intentional. Multicolours looked very bad with red, but Maybe i'll differentiate the shades a bit more.

DaPrimeAtce's off doing the orange options as of now.-
Have some Vanilla. I'm sorry if you where looking for white... (it was never part of the plan)
The reason it's cream and not white is to make the cursor and cursor-movement elements stand out. In this skin, white stands for things that relate to your cursor. If the whole skin is white, you cannot relate white to cursor movements.
It's kind of like: White = the path you are meant to take.
Everything you see in this skin, including weird design choices like a massive spinner, combo colours and cream colour is designed to enhance readability of osu to optimise your human vision.

Here's some small details you might have missed:
- the mode selection text says NIGHTGATE CYAN BETA
- taiko-drum-inner is completely flipped
- scorebar-colour is not aligned with scorebar-bg
- Fade In's canvas gets in the way of Sudden Death, which may cause inconvenieces for mania players
