Dark Night Skin

[Tuathanach]

Download Dark Night for version 0.6.3

After taking inspiration from Venalan's Flame On Skin, I decided to produce Dark Night Skin. I took Venalan's XML files and added my own, infowindow, inventory, small inventory, Container desc and chat xmls. I edited the art from Elves skin v2.

A simple dark skin. With reduced window sizes.

Nice.

[Venalan]

This is a nice and tidy skin. I like what you've done with the info window. I might steal me some of that

Also, is there suppose to be a download link anywhere?

[Tuathanach]

Added download link to top of the post.

Am trying out your skin, and like it so far! However, I do not see the "use" button on the crafting window, which makes for some difficulty.... Hope to see it soon!

There is no use button because I never used it. I always have u key mapped to /use. I will add it in to the next version of the skin .

I gave it a quick try. I like it.

I know this is outside of the scope of skinning... but maybe someone who develops might hear...
It would be nice if we could see a numeric value or percentage inside the skill bars so that when training, it's easier to see how much progress is being made with each action instead of having to squint at the bar.

Providing a "Use" button will certainly be useful. I remember how the TWH skin introduced it too, because there are crafting steps where you seriously need it.

A numeric value or percentage, would be great in skills window. The other thing I would like to see is being able to have 2 rows of buttons in chat window, but it doesn't seem to work.

Very nice skin!

This is a RP game. Wish we had a text window that would grow as we type instead of a single line that scrolls to the right. Hey, why not dream? :-)

Been wanting that forever too!

I never tried a different skin before but am going to try this one. I like the horiz. chat tabs and that things are smaller. Just hope I can figure out what to do with the files.

INSTALLATION

This is actually very easy.

1 - Download the skin you want.
2 - Locate the folder where PlaneShift has been installed on your computer. For me it is C:\program files(x86)\PlaneShift. Then find the art folder, and in there the skins folder. You will see a elves.zip and minimatuux.zip files. You need to copy the skinname.zip file into this folder.
3 - load PSlaunch and pick the skin from the settings window.
4 - load PlaneShift and Login.
5 - Enjoy.

TY Venalan!

I had a little help from Zalya figuring things out before I saw your post, but still had to say thanks! I got the file in the right place eventually but didn't know where to turn it on. Works nice and I'm pretty happy with it until someone gives us multiple lines to enter/edit chat.
