Well, most of these request are more complicated than just skinning.. I am doing some mode9 editing, but the code is such a mess, I won't be able to get all those things done easily.

useful project

@THE GRIZZ

1 & 2 require some lua editing, impossible for now
5, 7 and 9 require some m9 editing on the fly and a good debugging... we need tools for it, again, not for now

I think we can listing all manila graphic file and a "who does what" list to find out rapidly what to change... This should be a very good start for now

 

[Angelusz]

Yeahp. Expect the first part of the guide to be released this weekend. I'm very busy atm, so haven't done a lot of work on my X1

Hey, yeah. I've bought a house, so I'm kind of overburdened atm.. haven't been able to work on this. I'll try and squeeze in a little time this weekend to finish it.

Feel free to do the screenshots and video capturing when I'm done with the text part!
