Oh, you use Photoshop. Some versions of it have a known bug writing TGAs. As a simple workaround, use PNGs instead.

IIRC it has to do with a 24/32bit setting when TGA saving, and a bad default. Try toggling that.

[shaggy]

it's fine, I used gimp.

Well you know what's always funny is when something just with no reason stops working That has happened to photoshop, I'll try to get a few zips and pk3's ready but until photoshop decided to start working it may take a while...

* Tries gimp...*
It works. This will just have to do until photoshop works

Ok. Pk3:

Some minor bugs:

- radio buttons have still transparency problems
- pk3 was built wrong (rename plastic.txt back to skinvalues.txt, and make a folder gfx/menu/plastic to put the stuff in, and zip that gfx folder)
- I think the sliders don't fit the rest
- mouse cursor missing (but the standard one would work for it)

Otherwise, a cool skin... would like to include it. Can you fix the radio buttons and possibly the sliders?

[shaggy]

They're the ones I've been trying to get fix but it just doesn't want to. Well all I can do is try.

Also what do you mean by:
your sliders don't fit the rest

The style?

EDIT: Div do you think there's a quick script you know of or have that allows a single color to be the transparent color?

[shaggy]

What do you think I should do with the sliders?

I also need to fix up the slide bar thing.

[shaggy]

Well should I still submit it even though 2.4 is out?

[Asraniel]

i'd say yes, even if people will have to install it manualy. but 2.5 will come out one day, so your work isn't lost

[shaggy]

Well one funny positive has come out of this situation. Now the transparency is working! I just need to fixup the check mark and the slider_s and scroll_s. Then it's finish (I think)

[shaggy]

Ok, I'm finish (I think)

Available menu skins in 2.4, with the commands to load them:


menu_skin default; menu_restart


menu_skin silver; menu_restart


menu_skin simplygray; menu_restart


menu_skin xaw; menu_restart

plasic came too late, unfortunately, but if you install Shaggy's pk3:

menu_skin plastic; menu_restart
