Hi,

How do I make the play-warningarrow not be red? I've tried checking and un-checking the Prefer new skin behavior button in the options and it stays red regardless.

Thanks.

Does anyone know how I would go about recreating his inputoverlay-key and inputoverlay-background?

I assume you mean how the k1/k2 don't change color when pressed. I assume he's done it by just having the key image be that yellowish outline with a blank inside, the actual color of the key is just the keyinputoverlay-background and you can't notice the additive yellow on the key graphic outline because it's already yellow.

I'm having problems trying to change the sounds of section-fail, combo-break, section pass etc.

Is there a different name for the wav / mp3 file as opposed to just section-fail.wav

Also is there a list of which sounds need to be wav and which mp3?

Thanks for the help in advance

It's the same just without the -

I've tried that and now there is just silence at section fail and section pass

http://www.mediafire.com/download/lg2zp ... onpass.mp3

http://www.mediafire.com/download/01fwa ... onpass.wav

These are files for section pass in WAV and MP3 is there anything else that could be wrong?

Edit: Problem was that the sounds were too quiet for osu so i had to amplify them in audacity

mp3 and wav is the same thing actually, but some people prefer *.wav (For System stability)

Here's what I got
Tested 2 Sounds with Media Player Classic : The Sound seems not too quiet, in fact... Had the same volume as those other sectionpass
Tested 2 Sounds with KM-Player : Using "Repeat One" features, the sound volume is low in the first-play (like when I played It in osu!), but in the 2nd play... The volume gradually move up and so on until It reached the Max Volume... < This is the Problem, The Sound file has "Fade-in" features
What Software did You use to Convert those? Don't use Video-Editor Software, It will cause "Fade-in" for sound file... Use some Audio-Converter Software (Like Freemake {but sadly no *.wav} or Abyssmedia {Not Freeware})
annanokeiji
^ It is probably as you said that when i converted them with audacity it made them fade in or reduced the volume amplitude, i tried amplifying them again and this is what i have now.

http://www.mediafire.com/download/r5g69 ... tionpass(2).wav

Seems to be a reasonable volume for osu now

You can apply custom key images to mania key columns, via the mania.ini files.

To use this feature, if you set KeyImage0 value to (String 1), it uses (String 1).png image.
Also the KeyImage0D value of (String 2) uses the image (String 2).png.

This is pretty cool because it lets you do things like this in the same skin:

Guys I've got a prob.
The ranking panel isn't positioned correctly, easy, check "Prefer new default skin behaviour (animation, etc.)
When I use this option I can't use my own spinner cause the standard one will appear, anyhow if I uncheck it the ranking panel is crooked.

I Suggest You should Un-Check the "Prefer New Default Skin Behavior (animation, etc.)"
For the ranking-panel.png, It needs A lot of Experiments using Any Editing-Picture Software You have (Photoshop is the Best for this) to set the Panel Position in It's Right Position... (And I'm suck at this, So I'm using A Blank picture for ranking-panel.png)
*And also providing ScreenShot will Help Us correct Your problem easier...

I'll try to stick with the image editor solution :'c

You have to make a new key set and then specify it in the 8k.ini. For my scratch key I named them 'mania-keyTURN' and 'mania-keyTURND' and then you have to put this in your .ini;

KeyImage0: Mania-keyTURN
KeyImage0D: Mania-KeyTURND

The rows are numbered starting with 0 at the leftmost, you don't have to put in lines for every row, just ones you want to be non standard.

(I need to write a mania skin and .ini guide)

Hey, can someone help? I remember you can put something in skin.ini to enable high resolution, but i forgot. Do anyone here knows?
Topic Starter
MLGnom
It's not skin.ini but your osu! <username>.cfg file.

Open it and look for "HighResolution : 0" and simply change to 1.

Thank you for the help and fast response!! Also I apologize for my bad English :|

I've made a visual mania .ini editing guide, feel free to use it in the first post, MLGnom. ;)


Feel free to ask for explanations/help on anything listed or even not listed here, I'll be updating the guide whenever needed. :)

Hey there. I'm not quite sure if anyone has asked this before in this topic but I have a problem with the ranking-panel. It doesn't match my background -> http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/1028954 .
I read a topic where someone had the same problem and you suggested to try a wp with 1366x768. I did try this but the result was the same. The thing is no matter what skin I use I have this problem. Yesterday when I first changed my ranking-panel everything was fine, it fit perfectly. But then I changed some other things (like cursor, sounds, pause background) then this happened. I don't think that it has anything to do with my problem tho. I thought maybe redownloading a skin would solve the problem but even that didnt help. My ingame resolution is 1440x900 by the way.
Maybe the solution is simple and I just cant notice it, so if you guys can help me Id appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.

Did you check "New skin behaviour" thing in options? It will reposition ranking-panel in all skins.

Also, shouldn't you have 1306x768 size of it? Since 1440x900 is 16:10 aspect ratio and 1366x768 is for 16:9 (it shouldn't really affect this, but you might want to check it).
xelOwO
Checking the "skin behaviour" just changes some of my panel (like "back to menu" etc) back to the original but does nothing with the pic.
Oh so I used a bad aspect ratio:D My bad. I tried with the given resolution -> http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/1029043 The bottom of my pic still cannot be seen so i scrolled it up a little bit to show you the whole pic-> http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/1029045 . It seems it still doesnt fit as intended. Or is it how it should be? o.o
deadbeat
again, i'm pretty sure it's meant to be like that. i remember it being that like when peppy was reworking the ranking-panel

You are not forced to make exactly 768px height anyway. Try making 800px or something around it. Generally it needs a little positioning. ^^;
xelOwO
Well I played with the resolution a bit but no matter how big the height of my pic is the bottom of it cannot be seen :D -> http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/1029079
I guess I'll just accept this or remove the panel completly. :D
Nathanael
That's because there are is a part of the ranking panel that was moved up.
You need to get how is the height of that. Add it on the height of your ranking panel but let it remain transparent on the upper part.


Let's say I'm using osu! on 1024x768 resolution.
The ranking panel size should be 1024x672 as I measured it to cover the background.
But since it was was moved upward by 22 pixels, then I should also add 22 pixels on the ranking panel making it 1024x694.

I created a new ranking panel with the size of 1024x694. Its a bit big since I added 22 pixels.
The 22 pixels on the upper part of my ranking panel should be transparent. Those transparent 22 pixels will be moved up.
The remaining parts of your ranking-panel will be covering the background.

This is how it looks like.
xelOwO
I'll try that and let you know of the results.
Thank you everybody.
Nathanael
That's how I made mine.

This is how it looks like.

Wait, so you can't cover the letterhead ( Or how does it called. The part where you can see the titles and stuff) with you choosen background? Cause I can see the song's background in your picture.
TouchFluffyTail
As far as I'm aware, the ranking panel is drawn at around the middle of the title bar at the top in the old style, so you can't completely cover it.
