Here's a skin for Aurora that I'm surprised hasn't ever been requested, especially given the Xbox 360's backwards compatibility with Xbox Classic games. Further improvements will be looked into towards the foreseeable future. Collaborations are welcome! Current version: v1.1 Previews Recommended cover layouts to use for your enjoyment with this skin: * Ribbon * Stand Up What's included: - Looping Ambience BGM (It's not random like the OG Xbox so you'll hear the same BGM on loop every 5 minutes, but it should be unnoticeable enough to not ruin the immersion.) - Animated & looping background - Custom SFX (Currently has a few SFX for basic button presses & game transitions. Special thanks to jveda & their AuroraNXE skin for the sound references) - Custom wallpapers (Based off the colors from UnleashX, put them in your Backgrounds folder at Xbox360\System\**Wherever Aurora is**\User\Backgrounds & choose from one of them in the Background option from the B button menu. They will not display on this particular theme but it's a trade-off.) - Windows XP style Aurora boot screen tweaked by me (IMO, it meshes very nicely with the skin as a startup.) To-Do List: * Replace the static wallpaper with video background (Animated frames can be done but I don't seem to have good luck with them as they always seem to crash at some point. These two skins made by @TRK_UNIT suggest that video backgrounds are possible to implement) Done! * Try to add more sounds to make it more authentic * Modify the UI to make it feel more like the OG Xbox such as the fonts & color scheme * Fix any issue or bugs present in the theme (Currently Animations are not working & accessing it will bring up the corrupted background texture ) Click on the attached file below to download it.

Hi @Swizzy. I would like to contribute with a Portuguese translation for the latest Aurora version, would you mind sending me the EN-EN.xml so I can get started? Tks

I like Aurora but the only thing missing is ui sounds. I tried to make skin with ui sounds myself but I just can't wrap my head around it for now. Could anyone make this come true? I think many people would love it

Here's what you will need to make themes for Aurora. - XZP Tool ( To extract the files from the theme packages & eventually compile them back into it. ) - Microsoft Xbox 360 SDK ( Contains the Xbox Neighborhood & XuiTool, where you'll spend the majority of your time putting it all together. Because it's an official microsoft tool I don't believe posting a DL link of it is allowed, but you should be able to find it. ) - AuroraElements ( Extension for XuiTool you add to read files made for Aurora. Without it, you'll be thrown with errors. Extract the rar, in XuiTools go to Tools -> Options... -> General Then Under XML Extensions press Change..., then Add... and browse for the extracted xml file. Hit Ok three times and restart XuiTools. You should no longer get any errors when opening the files. ) - Aurora 0.7b.2 Release Package ( Latest version as of this time of writing. Beyond having the contents of Aurora, it has the default XZP skin file you can use to start your theme from scratch. You can also use other XZP files that have been made & uploaded in the past for reference as long as they still work for the latest version of Aurora. Skins made for versions v0.7b & v0.7b.1 are compatible but earlier builds might not. ) If you want to get fancy with your themes, I recommend Audacity for music & sounds and then for making an animated background, use kdenlive to modify the video file, FFMPEG to extract the frames of the video (One of my posts in the OG Xbox skin has a command you can copy & paste to your terminal where you can adjust the value of your framerate to your liking), & Bulk Rename Utilty to rename the extracted frames (Again, one of my posts in the OG Xbox skin details how it works.) You'll also need to have an image-editing tool to modify your skin's texture files. Many of them exist, but I like using Paint.NET. That should be just about enough to get you started & making some skins for Aurora besides consulting some tutorials posted here.

probably a virus in the files. No reason to not post the files here instead of having you jump through hoops and send dms for passwords.

I wanted to have a Windows XP style boot screen for Aurora so I made one. It has both dark and light, just change the "Alternate Splash Screen" option in the skin menu. This theme just changes the Aurora loading screen, so if you have a theme you already like, feel free to extract the XZP with XZPtool and just copy AuroraLoading.xur and the Images folder (no overwrites) to your preferred theme.

EDIT : The file is avaible to download at the end of this post. 😉 Hello ! I'm back for the final version of my skin and some screens of it ! So, It's a Auroa 0.7b.1 skin for a Xbox 360 in my Astro City Candy Cab. I've just change the boot screen of SteamOS skin (using Astro City logo), and the background main screen (using some video game logos) I want to credit mrknorton for the original SteamOS skin I've work from, and Felida who helped me change the meta screen. The visuals : Loading Screen. Screen used : Main Screen. Backgroud used : This skin for Aurora 0.7b.1 avaible at the bottom of this post. Enjoy ! ------------------- Below, the WIP ------------------- Hello ! Since I saw all the possibilities offered by Aurora and the tools put in available by the team, it made me want to contribute (modestly) to the group: I decided to make a small skin customization. To start with something simple, I decided to take my skin favorite (SteamOS, by mrknorton) and modify its loading image and its back main plan. My Xbox 360 being in an SEGA AstroCity cabinet, the theme was all found! So I started working on the background. I was looking for a neutral result, not too invsid, but we can guess the references to the video game: Then I worked on a loading image that could refer to the AstroCity. I made several proposals ... ... I even test an other font, but nothing really good ... ... I tested all that, and I realized that my loading image was not the right size (too small). So I redid the image that I liked most to the right size and edited a new skin meta ... and there, it does not work. Aurora does not want to load my skin. Well, as I changed 2 things at once, I will break down my progress by first testing with the loading image at the correct size, and once validated as working, I will do it again skinmeta. I'll let you know what happens next ! The file is avaible to download ! ⬇️ AstrOS_02.xzp
