Just wanted to give this a bump: I know "no news is good news", but if there's anyone running into any issues do let us know so we can nail them.

I tried to install one of the old skins (Black), and got real close. For some reason XN Resource editor wouldn't let me save the executable once I had made the changes.

I'll try again using a different install of XN.

Cheers

Yup, I tried it again using XN Resource Editor, and I get a 'System Error 19: media is write protected error'.

So, I gave up on XN, and tried this one out: http://www.heaventools.com/download-resource-editor.htm

So far so good. It's a pretty easy process to edit the exe...no bitmaps to delete, and the files save.

I haven't tried running the exe's though. We'll see how it goes!!!

Cheers

Hi Kris, I had never seen that problem with XN the issue we ran into with it was the crashes caused by replacing the MIXER bmp with it. You are right Resourcer is so much better. With the old black set I didn't include a MIXER bmp because of the problems with XN so the area above the auxes will be tan. Thnks for the response.

Ok, Resource Editor worked!

I tried out the bronze skin that looks sort of like an MCI desk, and the black skin. Both worked well, with no crashes. So far, the black one is easier on my eyes, but I still like the look of the bronze.

Thanks for your work Jim!

Cheers

Kris

Great Kris. If you are using the old black and the bronze above the auxes annoys you just grab the MIXER bmp from black with flames and add it. No harm mixing and matching.

I have tried the new skins and they seem to work fine. I especially like the plasma meters! I also modified the bronze skin to a "wet black" look by modifying the bitmap in Photoshop as for my setup a black color scheme seems to give me the best visibility. It was very straight forward and easy to do. Thanks!
I have also been toying around with the .dat file as in Kerry's thread and been getting good results with that as well...

Oh geez Mike, I totally screwed up, I hit "EDIT" instead of reply (perils of being in permanent "Admin" mode) - could you repost? My bad, I suck...
