Baddabing's Modern Metal - Download XLv2 Here

Postby BaddaBing on Sat Feb 07, 2009 11:00 pm

Here is the version of Modern Metal that is compatible with Xlobby v2
The skin is distributed with an installer to make it easier to use.
When you run the installer make sure the install path is to: <YOUR XLOBBY DIRECTORY>\skins\ModernMetal
EXAMPLE: C:\xlobby\skins\ModernMetal

DOWNLOAD MODERN METAL FOR XLOBBY v2 HERE: http://www.xlobby.com/files/baddabing/skins/ModernMetalSkin.exe
File size: 10,118 kb - UPDATED MARCH 10, 2009

R E A D M E
The installer will do the following

1) Installs the ModernMetal skin in your xlobby/skin directory

2) Installs the xoapweather plugin, xShoutcast plugin and skin fonts

3) The TV/DVR section is designed to work with SageTV with the controls showing up on a touchscreen and Sage on the projector/TV.

4) The "Lighting" section is just a placeholder that you will need to configure

5) The movie player screens will need to have the buttons assigned to your player of choice (zoom player, , etc)

6) The movie data (review, summary, rating, etc) is created using DVDProfiler or xANT

7) 800x600 native resolution - running at a different resolution may require moving or resizing the play/queue buttons on the music details page

I'm sharing it with the XL community so do what you wish with it.

I create these skins for a hobby and do not provide support - If you need a function or a page changed then its time to learn how to use the Xlobby skinning engine!

If someone wants to modify this skin and repost it on the XLOBBY forum I have no problems - just don't claim my work as yours

Cheers!
Baddabing

Wow!
That is nice! Been using modified HTTC_CF skin for ages, this makes me want to switch!
Any chance of posting it?

Yes, not only creating the graphics but laying the controls out in a way that works as well as it looks

Any chance of posting it?


Just doing a few final tweaks, should be done in the next day or so - and yes, I will post it for download.

Wow, now this is looking very classy...if i was to nit pick i would ask if you are stretching out some of your lcd elements as the highlight on the right side seems distorted (bolder) than when they are not stretched across the screen, only a minor quibble :D

Wow!!! Not much more I can add to that apart from saying wow again.

Love what you have done to implement my plugin - I think I can finally replace your BONG skin on my touchscreen now :wink:

Thanks.
