felida 1651 Posted May 19, 2015 Hello, there have been plenty of questions as to how to change stuff in the skins for Aurora, so i figured i'd make a small video explaining the process(in a small way). ps- im no video guy/tut maker, just thought i'd share ;-) 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
saywaking 289 Posted May 19, 2015 So you change for every frame the picture. I dont know why we have several frames there in the animation. There is no transition effect i guess. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hamad Shafqat 18 Posted July 10, 2015 Can I replace the original Aurora Loading Screen Image with a custom one? I had a custom screen set up in FSD 3. Like replacing splash screen or splash.dds? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hamad Shafqat 18 Posted July 10, 2015 Also which format should the image be? What should be the resolution? Which tool to edit? I know to extract from XZP tools...any other software needed? Thanx in advance... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swizzy 2079 Posted July 10, 2015 it needs to be PNG and 1280x720 There's nothing more to it then just replacing the image in the xzp... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
felida 1651 Posted July 11, 2015 it needs to be PNG and 1280x720 There's nothing more to it then just replacing the image in the xzp... that is the "easiest" way.. but that would replace the image in the "about tab" also.. Best way to do it would be to set it to a different picture in XUItool.. make sure to get all 4 frames(or 2 if not using the "alt logo") and set the image in "imagepath" 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hamad Shafqat 18 Posted July 11, 2015 it needs to be PNG and 1280x720 There's nothing more to it then just replacing the image in the xzp... What exactly is the name of the file that I need to replace, after I have extracted the Aurora Skin.xzp ? Is it "Aurora_Loading.XUR" ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Otherwise, I would have definately used XUI Tools... What do you mean by this bro, "but that would replace the image in the "about tab" also.." ? Which about tab bro?

bundito 5 Posted July 29, 2016 Hi guys. I realize this is a long-dead topic, but I need some help. My keyframes won't stay set. I put in my new image, size it, change it's layer order, set all 4 keyframes, save as binary... success... but when I reload it, my keyframes are no longer set. My image is still there, but the keyframe boxes are blank. WTF is going on? I hope someone still has alerts set for this topic. I know it's been a long time. -Dito (ps: first post, long-time reader and admirer of the work that happens here.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
