Hello all, here is a simple Custom CoverFlow Layout (hopefully we can adopt CCFL, or just CFL for this LOL) 

It is another edit of the "Flock" layout, I only edited the "normal" position on this layout, so all the other views will be the same as the default Flock layout, as you can see in the video the boxes flip after they pass the front 3 positions as they head to the back of the circle, this can be edited in a million ways to make the boxes dance on their corners or other tweaks someone may want to make, it's not perfect in many ways, but that's why it's labeled v1 for now

enjoy,

begal  

looks VERY good, i noticed that killer HERB in the background lmao.. i'm jelly ;-)

Just curios, is there any way aurora could change the network settings without flipping back to system settings?? i know dev kits/rgloader have the option to set ip and stuff from xshell.. but just wondering if at all possible to add this in?? not really an issue unless, like me, have to flip back and forth..

just an option to switch from manual to automatic is all i think is really needed.. unless someone feels froggy lol

try and rebuild your nand, as that is more than likely the issue.. 

 

Unless were talking about 2 dif things as for "settings"(if you mean in the xml or something) the background changer on the apps settings page will only read the 1 default background that is built into the skin (Images\Background\Aurora.Background.jpg), and any recurring images added to the "Aurora/Backgrounds" folder of your app, I believe Aurora is built this way from a programming standpoint and any additional files in the packed skin (.xzp) will not show up or removal of the built in image will break the switcher (as my animated themes do) http://gyazo.com/d38ba83850c9349d3cf8a626b9604efb

I am ok with this since some skins don't really need multiple bkgs, like with some animated stuff etc,, they gave us a better alternative to adding bkgs in the app root, as opposed to that old dash that you had to edit the snot out of your XML's to get your bkgs to show up with custom names etc,,example from old dash..

<backgroundlist>
<Background name="Skin Default">
<FILEPATH>Images\Backgrounds\Wallpapers\kinectblue_wallpaper.png</FILEPATH>
<PREVIEWPATH>Images\Backgrounds\Wallpapers\Previews\kinectblue_preview.png</PREVIEWPATH>
</Background>
<Background name="Adstract Blue">
<FILEPATH>Images\Backgrounds\Wallpapers\abstractblue.png</FILEPATH>
<PREVIEWPATH>Images\Backgrounds\Wallpapers\Previews\abstractbluepreview.png</PREVIEWPATH>
</Background>
<Background name="Abstract Cube">
<FILEPATH>Images\Backgrounds\Wallpapers\abstractcube.png</FILEPATH>
<PREVIEWPATH>Images\Backgrounds\Wallpapers\Previews\abstractcubepreview.png</PREVIEWPATH>
</Background>

nah, the recurring images dont show, as i have tried that, and the default background can be named anything you want, as long as you update the XML/main.xur,or just rename to default name ;-).. i've been playing with it.. and as far as i know.. there isnt a way to enable multiple backgrounds.. and as swizz said, its Aurora that handles that.. so.. lol.. i've changed most of the stuff(loading/background/colors).. img wise.. was gonna fiddle with the layouts and stuff like that.. as long as i dont fiddle with functions.. it shouldnt be too hard.. lol (but even after some practice, im pretty sure i can do those also)

but you touch the <defaultbkg> params.. it nix's out the background all together, except to change file name.. adding another line doesn't show/mess things up.. was just wondering if it was a simple <bkg2> parameter(function? dunno what to call em lol) or w.e..but i've had no luck lol

 

Here's what i've created, just as a test.. be weary of the loading screen, as it isnt for lil ones lmao

but either way, multiple BG's isnt that much of an issue.. was just wondering if it was simple..

yeah, i sent the PM a while after i set this thread up.. i've figured out the line, but anything besides the img file, breaks the BG all together.. the option to switch bg's is in theme's settings.. but havent figured out how to utilize that option.. unless it was left unfinished for the mean time..

WOW, everyone else beat me to hitting the send button.

Sorry boss, lack of class cuz it's the end of the semester today haha.. And I need to not browse this place from my phone trying to help out.. As I miss posts and shit gets changed.. Damn lollipop 5.1 autocorrect..

And sorry malim.. That same post about externals even stated nothing that goes into content folder, will work on USB.. My bad lol

Haha ya ok, just to clarify it did support 2TB hdds but not in the sense that you could use all the space for DLCs (only 32GB) but now it actually supports 2TB so I don't have to use multiple 32GB flash drives with install data from these newer games filling up every USB port, also as you can see the advantage of having so much more space for my DLCs, I knew Swizzy would be busy to implement the new dash ASAso I took the plunge and decided to go the unofficial route and now I'm suffering

But I don't think that's why Aurora isn't loading, I believe my launch.ini isn't getting overwritten with the new changes, I'll manually do it later and post my findings

Gotcha.. But still easiest thing to do would be get a $5-7 HDD slim case.. Never have this issue again? Of course u might need a 2.5" HDD if your external is 3.5"

WHAT!? I have never been on live, all I have is a 4GB console with 1TB external hdd and an OFFLINE account, so with 17150 and lower all I had was 32GB of space for my DLCs and install data from games like Wolfenstein, GTA V, Watch_Dogs, DOA5LR, how the hell do you 'cheat' with more hdd space?

That auto corrected(typing on phone).. There is no official rgh release of that dash.. You are using unofficial stuff.. That gets you no support.. And I could've swore that rgh supported 2 tb anyway for along time..

Matter of fact posts on 7sins from 2012 already talk about USB externals and support for 2tb.. But moot point.. Ask where u got the update from about your issues.. And FYI, cases are ~$5 for slim HDDs, solve you problems easily lol

I think you misunderstood me, on 17150 I had a 32GB partition for DLCs on my 1TB hdd and now on 17349 it has limit of 2TB but actually you can use it as you like so there's no fixed hdd space that needs to be determined beforehand

I mean for 'USB external hdds' the limit was 32GB but now it's 2TB so if you have a 2TB, you can have 2TBs worth of DLCs, the new update is more than quite significant

Only significant for ppl messing on live, like Swizz said, downgrade, or you'll have no support..

Doesn't matter about dash.. DLC only works on internal hdds, atleast that's what has been said for a long time.. I've always used internals.. But I'm pretty sure it doesn't.. And there isn't a need for support for higher than 17150.. As rgh already supports 2tb HDDs ;-)

Also once you downgrade like you were told, put launch.INI on usb, as it'll read from there first!

not to mention DLC does NOTHING on externals..

Would love to help, but I dont do skins. Maybe one day I will look into it, but it isnt high on my priority list, especially with all the skinners already  out there.

well i;ve got it mostly done, then i found out about the animated backgrounds.. and my bro asked me if i could do up a holiday pack.. instead of having multiple skins.. figured it'd be easier to just have diff backgrounds to swap to.. and nothing i do to that line, adds another.. but all in all.. pretty easy to do.. was having fun learning how to do it tho lolol confusing at first.. but i've gotten it pretty down packed.. 

i just asked man. i did not demand anything

I didn't mean you were gonna getnin trouble.. Was just trying to call Gavin to answer the question lol.. As he prolly got the joke.. But yeah man.. Best bet if you don't want to fork out for new mobo, use PC emu/buy an n64, and also.. It seemed like you were, as most do.. My apologies for insinuating your thoughts..

I dont consider this spam, this was a legit question. maybe once xbox live is finished, more devs will come to the scene, and get this done. You never know. I do know it wont happen in the foreseeable future.

Yeah.. And I didn't say it was spam.. Lmao.. I did say "warning hammer" not ban lol

than i would have to sell my xbox and buy a new one...

and i would have to buy a used one and so i cant be sure how the previous owner took cre of it

Well you expect someone to cater just to your wants? Could buy a n64.. And play that way? Ya know..

Or, you can learn how to code an write a GPU plugin for love64? There really isn't many devs out there. And not hardly any that will do it because you demand it.. Lol, plus look at n64 emu on PC.. That never got extremely far.. But there are some nice ones.. But Xbox nah.. Unless you hire someone, or code yourself.. Or try and figure out how to get it to work for your system.. As every other ones work.. Should've done your homework before blindly jumping into something..

Where's Thor's warning hammer? Lmao

Edit: figured out the title/buttons colors

also, how to add multiple backgrounds??

has something to do with this line:

<DEFAULTBKG>Images\Background\Aurora.Background.jpg</DEFAULTBKG>

but as to a 2nd 1 or 3rd??

or is it just not possible?

any help is appreciated..

when building a .VCXPROJ, 

i get the "warning c4244": '=' conversion from 'int16' to 'uint8', possible loss of data..

also same error conversion from 'double to uint32_t' 'time_t to uint8' 'int16 to unsigned char'

as well as c4113, as i've googled the errors, and only thing i can think of is use a newer VS???

any help is appreciated..

 

I find a lot of people still use tu 11, as until the next dlc comes out there isnt much of a reason to update.   as for the aurora issue, if you could send me your content.db file, that would help to solve that issue.

ppl like TU 11 cuz of the out of map areas still here.. VS TU12.. lmao

Looks good mate!!!

Hi people, I'm new here so sorry if i'm doing smth wrong :/ . I need help wth 2 questions ->

1st one- After a long period of hard trying I finally managed to install cod advanced warfare, the problem is I cant launch it through the cover. I mean, when i try to launch it by pressing the cover button, it gives me the can't-read-disc error. But when i search it in the file manager and launch it through the .xex file eveything works ok. Is there way to repare the game path or smthn like that? (Idk if that's the problem)

2nd- When I finally enter in the game and connect with system link, every lobby has 0 or a few users (2 or 3), the thing is that depends on what TU im using>>> For example, if i enter with the TU 12 (last one) there are no players in any lobby, however when i launch it wth the first TU there are always a few players in the first lobby. Is this normal or an issue of my xbox? If it's normal, what TU should I use?. Thaanks

odds are different TU's, media ID's.. and stuff like that ALL affect your lobby.. OR there could just really only be 0 ppl playing, if you would like more help.. feel free to PM me and i'll do my best

 

also, ppl tend to play on different TU's for different content.. also make sure you have the install packs that go with the game

and TU's matter.. only if you are trying to play with ppl on that TU.. as 1 TU will not show the rooms for the others.. because you are not on them TU's.. and would cause hell if you could, cuz ppl would be bitching that(i can see em, why cant i play with em) 

same things are issues for other reasons, and seperating rooms with TU's is the best option, to not lag the servers with bullshit

Which is why I also created a thread about question that if you ask, then you will be considered a spammer. I should add that to my sig also, so everyone can ignore it also. at least when they ignore it, and get banned, they wont have anyone to blame but themselves.

gonna have to call u gavin_darkthor when u slam the ban-hammer!! lol

sorry to go off this topic but in this video i noticed when his Aurora starts up and scans it does it very fast were mine takes about 50 seconds is that normal or just the amount of game differance

Do you have autoscan enabled? If so, could be your problem?, as I have a 1tb HDD, and it takes ~15 seconds? But yeah.. I'll say this.. HDDs do fail, and slow loading is an indicator of that.. :-/

last post in link may hold the key as to why

http://www.realmodscene.com/index.php?/topic/3980-how-to-test-a-headset-in-the-rgh-environment/?hl=%2Bno+%2Bvoice+%2Bin+%2Bgame

It has nothing to do with fakelive.. But more so as the game itself doesnt support it.. As was the case with mW games.. Inf ward/sledgehammer just suck lmao, and I was too tired to think of it when I asked, gav, if you could, just delete this thread plz ;-)

As felida mentioned you should start by upgrading the kernel to 17150, xeBuild GUI, JRunner and AutoGG all have support for including dashlaunch at buildtime, which is the recommended method of installation, once you've installed it the Dashlaunch installer acts as a configuration application instead, if you are currently running one of them unofficial builds of Dashlaunch that could very well be the reason for the error you're currently facing... if memory serves me right the first ones were for 16747

and this is why i suggested swizzy or gav, i completely forgot about the unofficial versions.. lol

I cant speak for swizzy,  but i have no life. lol.

i did notice that aurora defaults back to xboxftp for name/pw, when you update.. wasnt much of an issue to me.. but that could be why he cant connect anymore??

of course i can barely understand what he was asking, but flashfxp is FTP.. 

i try a 3.13 and 3.14 and the same freezy (black screen)

try updating your nand with Jrunner.. and use the option to include dashlaunch.. pretty sure Xebuild has that feature too..

i can try to help you.. but your problem seems like there is corruption to the nand, hence why i said update it.. Swizzy or Gavin might be able to help you out more when they get on.. as im not entirely experienced with the error knowledge..
