Those elements are only for version 2.1 all versions prior use the old taiko default metrics.

You will need to use/create elements that are for version 1.

Upon adding Version: 2, the Taiko skin is fixed, however my spinner skin reverts to default. Removing the line fixes the spinner, naturally, but my taiko skin becomes broken again.

Not sure where I should go from there.
I have the same problem.

Here is the spinner set

Spinner works normally without "Version: latest" or "Version:2" in skin.ini

Since we now need full image sets for old version skins, could you maybe upload a full template skin of all the old elements so we can use those to fill the gaps? Even the most recent template skin from peppy's announcement post doesn't contain all the elements (for example, taiko-drum-inner/outer and taiko-barline - among others - are missing).

The skin of https://osu.ppy.sh/b/396554 uses a set of new spinner. As versioning pushes out, we can no longer play with its full spinner skin. Should I write here or in the technical support?

Not sure what's happening, but my spinners are like this: http://puu.sh/94Lyq/527b8f23fd.jpg

My replay button is like this: http://puu.sh/94LB6/5d9d2bbe14.jpg when it should be like this: http://puu.sh/94LH7/05d06461d9.png

My skin.ini: http://puu.sh/94LZf/0df1e800b2.png

I used the original Life skin, then I customized it to my liking. Added different cursor, slider, spinner, ranking letters, scorebar..pretty much everything except the hitcircles/mods and such. Is there any way to fix those? :v btw, I'm no wiz at skinning, all I know how to do is just replace all the parts of it with different ones so yeah ._.

Worked just fine. If you had Version : 1 and ticked preferred new behaviour, you got old style anyway.

You have this skin in a folder named as "User". It will always force the latest Version on this folder, ignoring your set Version number.

Just rename your folder to something else like "Life (Edit)" or User2"

Umm, Version: latest did the trick for me with misaligned Taiko elements.

Great, everything was working fine for awhile until this happened. http://puu.sh/94tUF/89079b85e2.jpg

Instead of fading into a black background it just stayed on the songs storyboard. I just keep having problem after problem :x

I have the same problem as Tr1cky, though i was able to fix it on two skins by changing the version number to "2.0". But on my other skins the the skin.ini does not have a version section and I can not fix it, and I have already tried to add a version into the script and it did not work.


I would add screen shots but I am to much of a forum noob to figure out how.

Peppy, I have a question...

Why did you remove this feature? Was it because you make edits of the skin.ini to be specified the latest element on a skin?
Does this make things easier for us or smtg?
Trick_old_1
Yeah, I'm still having problems with the spinners. I'll tweak with some stuff and it'll work for awhile, but then it'll just go back like this http://puu.sh/965jQ/71c5e12a72.jpg

i've tried everything not sure what else to do. guess ill just play with full background dim or something

Add SpinnerFadePlayfield: 1 to your skin.ini. it will make the background black again.

Also ask this questions here instead: t/51694/

I like the idea, also translated this little guide into russian, but I think, the tech support forum is going to fill the hell up with a lot of questions.

For some reason, Millhiore said it still being worked on. Pretty much I am just waiting till the update so we can be able to use our customized ryuutas again.

New skin version uses states like pippi-don on taiko for the catcher.

But keep in mind these are subject to change.

With the skin Lumiance: Planckian Locus, the Taiko hit markers are all out of whack. In version 1 and 2, they are skew, but version: latest fixes the error. Also, in every version, the spinner sound in Taiko pitches downward, but pitches up in normal Osu! mode. The error on the ranking screen is only in version 1.


Version 1

Version 2

Version Latest

Leave it at latest or set as version 2.1 if there are no other visual problems accompanying it.

The only problems I can find are the health bar not lining up properly with it's background, and the sound of the taiko spinner decreasing in pitch and not increasing. I'll just set the version to 2.1.

But if I set the skin to Version 2, then my standard skin won't work becaudse it's a Version 1 one. So do I have to seperate and switch skins every time I want to play Taiko now?

You'd have to point me to a copy of your skin and a shot showing the misalignment.

This sounds like your mixing element versions or the skin isn't "whole" which is a no no... I assume your taiko skin is missing some playfield elements which it's choosing to use the new versions instead. If you are using version 1 elements then you will need to populate version 1 taiko elements for example ones found in the old default template or the taiko skin made by luigihann and many other existing skins.

I've been working on my new klonoa skin and when i went to test it out it just shows the template skin, is this the reason or am i doing something wrong?

Here is a picture of the error during a song.

On a side note, here is what it looks like in the skin selection screen, which is completely different

Remove score-marker.png or fix scorebar colour to fit your scorebar.

I actually did something different. I changed score-marker into scorebar-ki, kidanger, and kidanger2, and it fixed both of my problems.
