HD resolution only works for resolution above 1024*768...
To create A HD Skin Component... You can re-size the picture 2x than the original and name it "____@2x.png" (It's best if you create the HD skin component first and then re-size it to a half for the SD version)

Is playfield being removed? Mine was not used either in JPG or PNG formats.
I tried old and new behaviours and still the same. :/

playfield is mostly used for old maps that don't have a background video or image

I know that. That's why I was wondering why it wasn't used when I played on maps with no background images...

also when You pressed "Random Map" or F2 in the Mod-selection

playfield is still there

Proofs
It (playfield)wasn't used when played on maps with no background images


I have Yoko Ishida - paraparaMAX I and played it with HT (HalfTime). playfield is still there. (even if you toggled on "Disable Storyboard" for this)

when pressed "Random Map" or F2 in the Mod-selection
Figure 1 - Song is still active, haven't pressed Random Map


Figure 2.1 - playfield is still there when osu! selects a random map. (at high FPS)


Figure 2.2 - playfield is gone when osu! selects a random map (at low FPS).


If there's something that breaks this / weirder than this, You know what to do.
Nathanael
Yeah, I just found out today that the new skin behaviour was not using the playfield.

When i was playing osu! mania i noticed that whenever there were the notes you have to hold it would change the outline or the color of my combo counter to yellow. I thought maybe it was just for the skin i was using but it was for all of them and i can't find any way to change that color. Does anyone have any ideas on what that is and how I could change it?
OsuMe65
go to any xK.ini file (where x is the # of columns) and add:
ColourHold: red value,green value,blue value,opacity value

eg.
ColourHold: 136,0,200,200

poinyears
OHH that's really cool! thanks a lot.

This might seem a bit lazy, but I'm not exactly prepared to read through over a hundred pages of content to find the answer for this question:
Is it possible to have the cursor (not cursor trail) cycle through multiple colors? I tried using a cursor-1, cursor-2, etc. system to do it, but it doesn't appear to work.

I can't get my spinner-circle to show up when I use my skin, but when I compressed it and sent it to someone else, it shows up to them just fine. I checked all m settings and they seem normal. How do I fix this?

Uncheck "Prefer new default skin behaviour" in options and make sure that you don't have "Version:2" line in skin.ini.

Did you mean, the sliderscorepoint? You can skin them.

Taiko Slider Ticks shares the same elements as the Standard Slider Ticks
Yes, you can change them, but the changes will affect both Taiko and Standard's Slider Ticks.

What program do I have to use to make a bigger versions of small letters like these? Or if anyone knows what skin these originally came from and could tell me that would be awesome!
I can't find any good matching ranking letters for the ranking screen that match these ones and it is killing me x_x

paint can do it

Because they will look like shit.
Please don't post if you are not going to provide anything useful... and at least try to answer for a question.

Resizing from that small size is kinda impossible, they will always looks bad.
I'm almost sure they are from "Lucky Star" skin that you can download via osu! updater.

thanks, they are in the lucky star skin but unfortunately only the small ones and not the larger ones for the ranking page x_x So it looks like I'll be learning how to make bigger ones this weekend

I seem to have problems getting my circles and sliders one colour. If you look at WubWoofWolf's skin, every circle is gray. How do I make my circles gray, and only gray? I've heard I need to open the .ini file, but truth being told, I have no idea how I do so...

Help me ASAP please! :D Thank you in advance~ :)

You need to have hitcircleoverlay.png a gray filled circle to get gray-only hit circles.

Doesnt seem to work... That'll make the numbers go away aswell, and the approach circle is still colours :x

HitCircleOverlayAboveNumer: 1

I have two lighting effects in a skin I just downloaded, the normal one in the skin's folder (the one I chose) and the standard skin's one.
I can't disable the second one, I looked into the skin's folder and skin.ini but found nothing about that effect.
Prefer new default skin animation etc... is disabled, Hit Lighting is disabled.

In your skin.ini changes the SliderTrackOverride.

You need to add alpha channel to have transparency. Right click on picture layer and "Add Alpha Channel". Remember to save as png.

Combo burst has been removed from osu!mania so it would be impossible.

make the audiofile into comboburst-0, comboburst-1, and so on and so forth (if multiple)
this will change ALL the combo sounds of osu!, including standard, taiko and CtB

you can also put this in the skin.ini of the general section if you want the hitsounds to appear at certain combo numbers
for example, the sounds will appear at combos 100, 200 and 300.. then it will be
CustomComboBurstSounds: 100,200,300

hope this helped
