I recently decided to use a different picture for the background for a beatmap I already submitted through BSS. Is there a any way to change the thumbnail to the new background image?
I did that and the thumbnail changed on the site, but in client it still looks like the old thumbnail xPYour Good Self wrote:
Yes, just upload the beatmap as a usual update. It should change to the new background as the thumbnail.
If you're not using the old background anymore, remember to go to File > Open Song Folder and delete the unused BG.
Hopefully it changes soon, in that case. It's bugging me to have the thumbnail and the BG not match xPMao wrote:
Well, sometimes it stays the old one. As far as I know, there is no way to change it manually. It may change by itself later though :/
Thanks so much!!Your Good Self wrote:
If it's really bugging you to the point of insanity, I guess you could force a change by deleting the local copy of the thumbnail.
They're stored somewhere in the osu! installation directory, under <something>\osu!\Data\bt . Do note that Data is a hidden folder, so you may have to mess with some options to be able to see it. In there, you'll find a bunch of thumbnail images, which the osu! client uses instead of downloading the fresh copy. Look for something like:
276935l (from http://osu.ppy.sh/s/276935)
277451l (from http://osu.ppy.sh/s/277451)
276959l (from http://osu.ppy.sh/s/276959)
You get the point. It's basically <beatmap set ID + lowercase L>. If you delete it then you will force osu! to download a fresh copy of the thumbnail, which will be correct.
