You just type them in the skin.ini just put SliderTrackOverride: with the rgb value you want under [Colors]

It worked, Thank you again RockRoller. but I have a new question. I have my combo color set to black and my approach circle set to white but the approach circle is still black. Is it even possible? pls help.

hi so i encountered a problem when i made my skin and i know i messed up pretty good somewhere but i dont know where. my issue is that i dont get combo numbers on my hit circles or sliders.

My skin doesn't have a "skin.imi" in the folder. Is there a way to modify the settings of the skin?
I attempted to a clean skin.imi, however it ruined the scaling of most assets.

I'm looking to specifically resize the "columnwidth" for osu!mania 4k.

You need to have a skin.ini file for that. Really shouldn't be too hard. Your thing probably got messed up because you changed the Version: in the skin.ini. A skin without a skin.ini uses Version: 2.5 I beleive, so if you make a skin.ini make sure to set that

does anyone know a skin with rem from re zero?

What you are refering to should be either hit lighting, which can be turned of in the options, or you are looking for instant fading hitcircles, for which you can find a guide here: https://tutorial.skinship.xyz/guides/insta_fade_hc

yes you can rename menu-background.png to .jpg to get the full quality. Works just fine iirc

Did you make the image that has the numbers on it to big? If it is to big, then osu! will stop rendering it. I did the same thing a few days ago.

I have an error, I just made the menu-button-background, and now the picture that more songs have don't show up... pls help.

And as I am asking one thing I will ask another, my scorebar-colour is not rendering as high as it should. I have it at the top of the picture, yet there is space between the top of the screen. Pls help.

First, I meant most, not more.
Second,https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-evnz6stRVmxpKRBm9FPdiTDWaO9qDt7/view?usp=sharing

Ah, make sure to set Version: in the skin.ini to 2.5
This is Version:2.1 and below behaviour

Thanks, it worked. Now just to fix the image itself.

Now, for the second problem... have an idea?

scorebar-color can never touch the borders of the screen, since its offset by a certain amount of pixels (12,12 with -marker and 5,16 with -ki)

How do I fix the skin default? I mean like when it's 1-9 it's normal but when it goes to 10+ the font mixes it's like penetrating to each other. also, how do I remove the skin border? the square border like in cookiezi's skin?

There are only a few elements that can be animated, but all follow the same scheme. Make each frame of the animation a seperate file, called scorebar-colour-0, scorebar-colour-1, and so on

can "section-" be animated?

no

can you list me everything that can be animated?

The skinnable files list clearly lists which files are animatable

Yes it totally can, which is why there is a few notes about that in the part about animations in the tutorial

Thanks ill avoid that when im skinning to prevent me and others that wants to try my skin so they won't drop frames

2 things, 1. Can you have the hitcircleoverlay be hind the hitcircle? 2. If not, does the hitcircleoverlay get affected by combo color?

remclean wrote: 41701c

The whole point of the hitcircleoverlay is to have a layer that is on top (an overlay) that is not affected by the combo colour. So no, neither of those are possible

That's what I thought, but I was hoping one would work.

So, I just animated a new menu back button (in song selection), but the fps is too low. What do I name the images to make them go faster? or is that possible?

You need to change the AnimationFramerate in the skin.ini. Besure to read the part about animations in the tutorial

You made selection-mode-over too big. the over images define the hitboxes

You can change the colouring of hitcircles in any way you want basically. Just go into the skin.ini and set the Combo#: commands

Some skins has a sound effect where once you load up a map it says "Good luck" something like that.

Hello! Not to be a bother but I have a question. How do I change the character that pops up whenever you hit a lot of notes? (Example: When you catch a lot of notes in Osu!CTB, A character appears for a second) My skin is going to be universal for all modes, If that effects anything.

those are the comboburst images:
- comboburst(-#) for standard
- taiko-flower-group(-#) for taiko
- comboburst-fruits(-#) for catch
- comboburst-mania(-#) for mania

For detailed info please make sure to check the skinnable files spreadsheet

(Sorry if I get anything wrong I'm a little new to skinning myself)

So for example if "menu-back-0" and "menu-back-1" has the same image but are in different frames, you'll want to take away a frame of that duplicated image. Thus making the animation faster

(Because 2 of the same frames makes that split second longer, taking away 1 decreases the time it takes to finish)
If you don't have your animation setup up by duplicated images in different frames then try going into skin.ini, there will be "AnimationFramerate: 1". You'll want to change the number, if you know anything about FPS/Frame Per Second you should do just fine adjusting the framerate,

but just incase you don't know, there's 12 - 60 frames for a normal animation, but you can go lower than 12 and higher than 60.

-Lower = Slower
+Higher = Faster

I hope this helps!

If you're asking about for mania, https://skins.osuck.net/, this is the one of the most helpful websites for skins.
Here is a skin I used: https://skins.osuck.net/index.php?newsid=726

There are other websites that does skins for osu players to use. I recommend using YouTube aswell because they showcase skins for all modes.

You go to the directory where you installed osu and go to the Skins folder. Once there you can create a folder, name it, and put all the files from your skin there. If it doesn't show up in-game, try doing the skin refresh shortcut (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S).

Or you could just open the .osk file with osu.

hello everyone
I just started making my first own skins today
so can you suggest me how to put megumin pic next to the mania stage
thank you very much :3

Open your current skin folder and find a file "mania-stage-right". Open an editing software and open the file that I told you to find. Create a blank canvas at the right of it and you can then paste your megumin picture there. Save changes and reload your skin.

thank you very much :3

edit: so if i want to mix the mania part to the other skin
so can you teach me how to do it?

Copy the skin elements from the current skins - since it's about mania part you just need to find every filename that has the word mania, and then transfer them into the other skin you like.

After that, reload the skin.

problem solved :b

Hi, sorry for the bother after many years, i'm in the making of my first skin, and I basically figured everything out, but there's one thing that I don't seem to understand: how do I move the song select menu?
I tried to create my own menu the only way i know how, and that is to make the selection-mode.png the actual menu, like in bacon boi from cyperdark, using the normal osu song select template and using the same image dimensions that work on the already mentioned bacon boi.
The placing was completely off so I tried to just copy paste the menu from bacon boi to my skin, the placing was still off, where did i mess up?
Thanks in advance and sorry for the nuisance Alan

This sounds like you may not have set the version in the skin.ini, please make sure that its set to 2.5

Hello, how can the OSU skins that are on that computer be put on another computer?

Hi! Sure.

1.) Open osu! file location and open Skin subfolder.
2.) Copy all the skins you would like to put on.
3.) Do the same thing on another computer - open file location and go to Skin subfolder, and then paste the skins.
4.) "Ctrl" + "Shift" + "Alt" + "S".

It seems not, since I have like 10 combo images... but in the standard game they appear but in the CTB they don't... and that's ugly because the CTB is my main game.

Catch has it's own comboburst files. Read what the wiki says and you will get them working.

Oh hey i have a question.

How can i make the mania background transparent? (which is black by default)

And also... Is there any order for the skin.ini settings or i can write them in any order?

Change Colour#: in your skin.ini [Mania] config to some RGB(a) value where the a is 0.

The # represents the lane number starting at 1.

E.g. Colour1: 0,0,0,0
