How to update skins for different builds

miked · 2008-08-18, 22:38

Hi there

I have a skin I created for an older version. I just installed the latest stable build, and I am getting a warning about skin incompatibility...but zero indication on what exactly changed, and how to address the changes in my skin.

Are there docs somewhere that describe changes in the skin system between builds? And how does MP know what "version" a skin is for?

Thanks

...Mike

Skin file "references.xml" current version 0.9.2.0, so if you have 0.2.3.0 that needs to be changed.

This is totally unsupported by the MP-Team, so please do not report bugs with this skin, as there have been changes.

Regards

Thanks for the reply, but I'm confused...MP doesn't support skins? Or MP doesn't support any skin but the default one? I'm not looking to report bogs, I'm looking to understand what changes were made between builds so I don't crash the system.

In any case, am I to take from this that there are either no changes between 0.2.3.0 and 0.9.2.0 and/or there are no docs outlining the changes?
