I'm having a problem with reskinning my spinner to the new skin...

Ive looked through the things I needed and It keeps using the standard osu spinner (it hurts muh eyes T_T)

does anyone have a fix for this?
Ayesha Altugle
Try any one of this below (in your skin's skin.ini):

Version: 1
Version: 2
Toukai
Version: 2 - No image preview and spinner stays standard

Version: 1 - No image preview and spinners turned back to my custom one. But the hit bursts changed into default this time

Can anyone with a buggy spinner upload their skin so I can try to find the problem?

Rename spinner-circle to spinner-top (or spinner-bottom), other things like spinner-metre and background won't work anymore on v2, unfortunately (It would be nice if there are some way to work around this matter).
Edit: Sorry for my bad english.
Toukai
Oh I tried that before and it didnt work for me either :/ so I dont know....it would a huge loss if we cant make a spinner bg :(
MillhioreF
I've pushed a change that'll force the spinner back to old style if you include spinner-background.png in your skin. Keep in mind this means you won't be able to use new spinner elements if you do so (spinner-middle, spinner-top, spinner-bottom).

A work around for this is rename to spinner-top and use a transparent image to spinner-bottom (or duplicate the spinner-circle and rename one to spinner-top and other to spinner-bottom).

I'll try to test on a skin I'm creating which is "in the works".

I didnt even know those were new LOL

I'll just skin the old spinners until the issues with the new spinners are fixed

thanks a lot :D

What can be done about the alignment of my skin? I've tried "Version: 2" "Version: 1" and "Version: Latest" in my skin.ini but none of them fixed the slight problem I have been having. (I put them in there with out the quotes, don't worry)

This is what the skin used to look like: http://postimg.org/image/ttpv4v813/
Hollow star player rating in the upper left and very even song selection because it aligns based on font. (It seems) Which makes a nice look curve.

What it looks like now: http://postimg.org/image/l8rxzy8h3/
Stars are filled in (I didn't log in for you to see though, oops?) and each one of the songs align whichever way they feel like. It doesn't look like a nice clean curve at all, It's all jagged.

However it looks like they do align correctly when I use this skin: http://postimg.org/image/xot97fr6v/
Is there a way to get back to the older version/way the song aligned since I can't get it to work?

Do I have to deal with it or just use a different less attractive skin?
MillhioreF
If you notice, the song alignments are jagged anyway, and the smooth curve is noticable because the panels are solid, and not partially invisible like on your other skin. The star image has also changed, so you'll have to fill them in from the old template if you want them to go back.

MilhioreF Can you give us the new skin.ini? I wanna see the new codes for edit my skins... Also can update the Osu Default Skin Template? (t/129191/start=120)

Thanks, and sorry for my bad english.
MillhioreF
There are no new skin.ini codes. The only skinning change in version 2.2 is that song select will use star2.png instead of star.png.

It doesn't use star2.png anymore.


@PinkHusky this is a cosmetic bug which will be fixed soon (misalignment when ranks are present).

Could anyone look at my skin and maybe fix it? I mean that w/ "Version: 2" I've a problems with Taiko drums and after a song with ranking-menu-background, Retry and Watch Replay buttons, but w/o any "Version: ..." I've only problems with Taiko drums. I got confused after all this what I'm trying to do to fix this.

Use Version: 2.1 to fix the drum issue

How can i center the image? D:

Ok, the recent patch fixed my spinner for version 2, and setting the version to 2.1 fixed my taiko elements. (Thanks vahn10!)

I suppose theres nothing i can do for the map selection menu short of redoing the graphics? ._.
I also have no idea how to fix the broken unskinable elements.

Insert "Version: 2.2" in skin.ini :)

Thanks for the help guys \o\ https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/1680984

Edit: I had problems with the ranking-replay@2x.png It didnt works. But its okay. If anyone have problems with it, like.... It doesnt show your custom ranking-replay@2x.png you only need to rename it to pause-replay@2x.png and it works :D (https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/1681028)

Need a little help here guys
After the update yesterday, i changed my skin folder to "User" and everything worked fine. But after the recent update i have this problem

http://puu.sh/9ghmF/ff8298754f.jpg

Below the ranking D, it's suppose to show the pics of ranking-retry.png and ranking-replay.png ( i have those pics in the skin folder FYI) but instead, it shows the pics of pause-back.png and no retry pics ( so i assumed that it didnt load my pics and use the default)
I've already try to add another 2 pics but the result still the same

EDITED: Fixed my problem, when i add "Version: 1" or none to skin.ini, everthing back to normal. But when i add "Version : 2" or "Version: latest", the problem above pop-up o.o
Put Version: 2.2 and use that image with "pause-replay.png" instead "ranking-replay.png" it will works with the last version of osu...

Edit: I have a problem with this: http://puu.sh/9gkzz/ceb72e602b.jpg <- I dont know why my osu show's that space, there is a way to fix it?

IDK but that space seems harmless
Skin version 2.2 doesn't use "ranking-replay.png" anymore ??? o.o

Yeah, It doesnt use that item now. Or I think that xD
Acme Deizd Void
Ur right, it doesn't anymore :S
Did small test below:

+ Skin.ini with the line "Version: 1" or none and NOT changing current skin's name to "User"
_ No small background on each mode of every beatmap
_ No "pause_retry.png" and "ranking_retry.png" conflict at the result board
_ Stilll have "ranking_replay.png"

+Skin.ini with the line "Version: 2" or "Version: 2.2 " or "Version: latest" and changing current skin's name to "User"
_ Has small background on each mode of every beatmap
_ Showing "pause_retry.png" instead of "ranking_retry.png" at the result board
_ No "ranking_replay.png"

I like the new skin behaviour and afer changing the version to latest i had no more problems with the menu-button-background but there is one thing that i cant seem to fix:

http://puu.sh/9gvGN/4b51714d5a.jpg

The score is way too streched out and if i change the version to 1 i get this:

http://puu.sh/9gxAA/d9c640282f.jpg

does anyone know how to fix this?
OsuMe65
That's natural since both have different behaviours.
Valentiino


So do I seriously have to update my skin that has been working for years and suddenly it has been decided it will look like shit?

Why can't the version: 1 just use the old ways for menu's and stuff? It's really bothersome when I just wanna play instead of doing stuff with my skin |:

well of course but if you take a look at the default skin you will find that it has no spacing issues at all so there has to be some way to fix this i guess

EDIT: additionally if i delete my custom elements and let osu load the default images i get this:

http://puu.sh/9hp8c/bac5dcaf8b.jpg

there are no problems at all!

also, selecting an appropriate template for a skin version matters too
