It's somewhat annoying to have the OP on every page just because they don't even add any comment. Also it puts some extra loading time on some PCs.

How do others think of that kind of posts?
So write a message to mod? We can't help you here with these. D:

I mean, is there a automatic way or somthing better than just using the eraser tool which results in in poor quality.

That's natural, not that annoying.
Also, questions related to the OP's skin or whatsoever in OP's thread could be better answered by OP rather than a passerby.

The recent update changed or rather fixed two aspects listed here and one has a larger impact.

With the new update the scorebar-marker is now skinnable and forces a different anchorpoint on the scorebar-colour than the scorebar-ki elements.

The new anchorppoint is 12,12 when using the marker and breaks all skins which currently have it.
Also it prioritizes the marker before the ki.

The smaller fix is for new-styled spinners which showed the spinner-approachcircle.

Edit: because false anchorpoint.
It's 11,12 btw. (closest value I got) using w,h (width, height)

I'm using a square scorebar-colur btw.



^That's what I got when I use 10 px width anchorpoint



^When using 11 px width anchorpoint



^when using 12 px width anchorpoint
OsuMe65
But the actual is 12,12 to avoid further confusions.
Also, even if you reduced the image's width or the shape itself without changing the image dimensions, the anchor will stay the same.

Case Closed

Second Check with new default template

using 12, 13 (still following w, h format)

got this below

[note: duplicated layers of scorebar-bg to make it opaque] didn't change anything on scorebar-colour

just really don't know
OsuMe65

12,13

Anyway, ReddScorn's anchors are always on 1024x768
Also, let's drop this issue.

Does anyone have tips on how to center spinners? When I test my spinner it always ends up misaligned. I already made sure that the spinner was actually a circle and not an oval. The center align of the move tool doesn't do anything either

Photoshop:
1. Use the shape tool with same size (e.g. 666x666)
2. Rasterize Layer
3. Zoom to "fit all"
4. Select all
5. Cut
6. Paste

Well this is my way.

I just noticed that even the default spinner-top.png isn't spinning correctly.
I tried placing a circle aligned to the center of the canvas on top of the default spinner-top and it seems that the pivot isn't aligned properly.


It looked aligned at first but started going off-center while the spinner zoomed in (new skin behavior)
I don't know if this is intentional
Any help is appreciated

I see this often with spinners on a size of like 667x667, 389x389 or other sizes that end on a odd number, when halving their size.


To the scorebar anchor, this simple design should make clear it's 12,12.

Is there any way to change the colour that 'inputoverlay-key' flashes as?
(default seems to be yellow for K1/K2 and purple for M1/M2, to clarify what im referring to)

I believe not, I've never tried. But you could change the color of the image itself and it would affect what color it flashes

It is not possible. in short

How does one do this?
http://puu.sh/8ZKjX.png
The individual hitcircles have a transparent middle (I know how to do this). But the sliders themselves have a solid hitcircle. How to I make it so my sliders are solid? It would help me a ton to be able to do this.

hitcircle.png = solid hitcircle
hitcircle-0.png = transparent middle hitcircle

oh yeah I forgot about that, my bad...

I think You can try using a transparent middle hitcircle... and disable the slidertrackoverride in the skin.ini

The Hitsounds are the same, but the skin isn't
*so if You want the hitsound, just download the skin... and copy the hitsounds to your own skin
FlyingNeko
You might understand why I provided you a link to the skin. Please use your brain

ok thanks!

Yep i inserted those files and now i dont have my lighting for my beats. I checked every skin i have which is about 9 of them and all of them suddenly dont have their lightings. How to fix?
FlyingNeko
Richard, for your hitsound problems, make sure you have this ticked.


For the missing lightings, make sure you have this ticked.


If you accidentally replaced the hitlighting of the skin you use with the blank 1x1 png, download the skin again and check if the hitlighting is there.
Ayesha Altugle
uhh what?

plus fixed icon.

Disable Storyboard (It won't make It into the light one, but that Black Box will go away leaving You with a widescreen playfield)
*other than that... You can't change it

Yes, you can. Add "masking-border.png" to your skin with picture of 768px height. Width is resolution dependant (wider resolution, wider blackbars), so you need to fit it yourself.

Example on resolution 1280x800 and with picture 193x768px :

NorskTorsk
I am stuck on a little thing in my project.

How can i decide what colour does the template under the beatmap list turn?

At the moment, i have a nice color for it when anything isn't selected, but when i select something.... well it looks bad.

So how i change the colour for that?
