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.

Beta version of the skin, not every thing works, i did do some more tweak, will post video. LB or RB to navigate across the blades. Blade2025.xzp

I agree 100% and the best skin

This will be by far the best skin for Aurora. Incredible work you're doing. Surely 99% of Aurora users are waiting for this skin.

I will be posting an update of the blade skins soon.

Thank you friend this is the exact kind of feedback needed to continue improvements. 1. language support is broken due to removing the 0.5x scale on text in skin. Only way to fix is recode all the affected text but it makes but it makes it jaggy - so will try to make a separate skin file for other languages 2. progress bar is fixed I just need to release next version 3. I need to try this one thank you for the clear directions to replicate 4. I appreciate this coverflow tweak! I will take a look to improve the one including with the skin thanks everyone - the support has been awesome and makes me glad to see others appreciate the NXE skin as much as I do. when you can’t find something you want, create it, others may want it to. Will be back

Once i get back, i will try it and let you know.

The big issue i am trying to fix is with the game options "details" and "Browse" those are the biggest Bugs am trying to figure out.

I change the landing screen, but it still comes up with a blank System tab; not frozen, using LB or RB still allows you to navigate then all the blade shows fine. Do you have any experience can lend a hand? You will be credited for sure. Blade2025.xzp

You're doing a fantastic job. I can't wait for the final version.

I know how to make some modifications, it depends, I am currently refining the Blade skin am working on. I will take a look at this at some point.

Skin have been updated and some UI aspect have been fixed. The Avatar seem to need adjustment, and some of the Menu's UI have been tweak and modified. on the System Blade, "y" can access the change log for when bugs are fixed and also shows what is being worked on. The skin have been optimized for performance, that was preventing large game library cover art from loaded, not sure if its fix for HDD over 2TB. Blade2025.xzp

Isn't there anyone who knows how to modify skins to try to make these adjustments and if necessary, jveda refines them further later?

I have Aurora set to Spanish, But when I install your beta skin, everything appears in English. I don't see any Spanish anywhere. It's still better to finish the skin. Then, translation is optional, whenever you want to spend a little more time.

Thank you, I wonder if ppl will like it when its done lol

Amazing work, my friend.

I have made some progress to the Blade Skins, got most things working now, just a few bugs i have to work out in it.

Doing 2 variation, this one will be more like sci-fi with HUD and animated buttons.

Yea, i have seeing a lot of videos but they don't do me justice. I only manage to reach this far due to my current field in software engineer, but being there is no source document, and the GitHub that i found, the codes aren't commented all am doing is brute forcing and trail and error and some success. I think i am going to reach a point where i actually need the knowledge to put the skin together.

I have seen many videos that use the XuiTool program to create many projects on skins but you need to have excellent knowledge to be able to use it, surely to get to this point you will have excellent skills as a true professional so I can only congratulate you and hope that you will be able to complete one of the best skins I have seen so far

Yes you did. Looking great!

Did several updates on the skin, spend roughly 9hrs on it. there are several visual that needs to be fixed and am having a bit of an issue getting the file explorer to work, the script menu works. The personalize table have a bug, for some reason i cant change the skin, the option doesn't present itself when i click "Change". The Security tab works so far just need to adjust the visual. The Control Panel tab i have not started yet, i know thats going to be a pain finding what xur files manage to that menu. Dont get me started with the Gaming Tab, i dont see how Aurora loads the coverflow, if there is a coverflow CLASS or Function that i can load into an element then i can construct the Gaming Tab. Man i wish there was an instruction guide for Aurora.

This is going to be one of the best Aurora skins to come out in some time. Looks great so far. Keep up the good work. 👍

Well its 8:30 am and i am having my coffee and about to start

amazing The best skin and my favorite too love IT😍

Waiting for a tremendous skin. Great work

Progress so far, still have bugs to work out

I am working on it, i was just trying to finish the custom RGH3 digital xbox360 slim 3D case project i been working on.

a port of final burn neo for the xbox 360. it was last compiled on the 27th of december 2024. this uses the 1.0.0.3 romset. there are two versions. https://consolemods.org/wiki/Xbox_360:FBNeo

Hey I have created a startup file which apparently can be place inside the fakeanim jukebox . This is extracted from the original xbox series x startup and converted into wmv file. This Video is fully compatible with fakeanim. Hope you like it. Xbox Series X.wmv

I have manage to somewhat get something to work, but i think i need an expert point of view on this. Blade.xzp

Is this project still ongoing?

I saved not a lot of skins for aurora and wanted to share with you. The skins are not mine, I am not the author. also, these are not all skins from the forum, but only selective ones that I liked If you are too lazy to look for a skin suitable for you, here is a download for you. I don't claim authorship, and I won't be working on bag fix, so this is just a collection for people who don't want to search for a downloadable collection like me.

Anyway to disable the blue/purple filter that's on the game background images?

Here, my updated 2018 Trainers collected for Aurora: Updated Aurora Trainers (568 Titles) thanks to all contributors. 🤗

without the blue writting this bootanimation would be a lot better. I personally think it looks a bit like comic sans and childish
