To change the slidertrack you need the skin.ini command SliderTrackOverride:
can "section-pass" be animated?
skinning tutorial site is down.
Its definitely on here tho if you are willing to look/test yourself https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bhnV-CQRMy3Z0npQd9XSoTdkYxz0ew5e648S00qkJZ8/edit#gid=1820685604
So for example if "menu-back-0" and "menu-back-1" has the same image but are in different frames, you'll want to take away a frame of that duplicated image. Thus making the animation faster
(Because 2 of the same frames makes that split second longer, taking away 1 decreases the time it takes to finish)
If you don't have your animation setup up by duplicated images in different frames then try going into skin.ini, there will be "AnimationFramerate: 1". You'll want to change the number, if you know anything about FPS/Frame Per Second you should do just fine adjusting the framerate,
but just incase you don't know, there's 12 - 60 frames for a normal animation, but you can go lower than 12 and higher than 60.
-Lower = Slower
+Higher = Faster
I hope this helps!
Here is a skin I used: https://skins.osuck.net/index.php?newsid=726

you need to use spinner-background, that enables the old spinner style, then you can use the elements of the old spinner style which includes the metre

Thanks for skinning guidance! Do you know if ranking-replay.png is still skinnable or has been renamed to something else? Mine has reverted to the default "Watch Replay" button while my "Retry" is still properly skinned.
Edit: It works when I put the image into a different skin and use it. I have a feeling something in my skin.ini is preventing it (?) but I can't seem to find anything relating to ranking screen at all in there.
Edit2: Turns out it works when I switch my skin version from 2.4. to 1. Unsure why the only thing that's affected is the ranking-replay.png though, since the ranking-retry worked in 2.4

You need to have a skin.ini file for that. Really shouldn't be too hard. Your thing probably got messed up because you changed the Version: in the skin.ini. A skin without a skin.ini uses Version: 2.5 I beleive, so if you make a skin.ini make sure to set thatBenTheBen wrote:

Open your current skin folder and find a file "mania-stage-right". Open an editing software and open the file that I told you to find. Create a blank canvas at the right of it and you can then paste your megumin picture there. Save changes and reload your skin.

Copy the skin elements from the current skins - since it's about mania part you just need to find every filename that has the word mania, and then transfer them into the other skin you like.
After that, reload the skin.

Hi, sorry for the bother after many years, i'm in the making of my first skin, and I basically figured everything out, but there's one thing that I don't seem to understand: how do I move the song select menu?

The placing was completely off so I tried to just copy paste the menu from bacon boi to my skin, the placing was still off, where did i mess up?
