New Mini-me skin (UPDATE)

<< < (5/11) > >>

nila:
Copyright - it's the killer of the world - there should be some clause somewhere in the law about: 'Within reason'

Anyway - still a great skin :)

I doesn't forget everytime, but occasionally, this happens to me as well. It was one of the bugs I mentioned. Apparently, it has trouble reading the state.xml file occasionally. If it "forgets" everytime, then MC is unable to write the state.xml file.

Any suggestions would be appreciated as I've started from scratch twice trying to figure this issue out. If anyone can consistently replicate the "forgetfulness", I would appreciate any feedback.

Thanks!

JC> Take a look at the Windows XP skin I made. I had problems similar to what you're describing with the state.xml and I had to code around it a bit. It might help, no guarantees, though.

The LoadSkinState() function doesn't seem to do what the SDK says. Or at least, I couldn't get it to work the way they said to use it.

Thanks for the help Doof ... I'll take a look at your solution to hopefully find a workaround.

BTW - did anyone have trouble getting the font to display properly?

No problems w/the font for me JC.  'Course I've already had Lucinda Grande installed as part of the Brushed Blue visual style from Iceman's Emulation site that I referenced a while ago.
