Avallanche - Old version for MP1.3 and earlier (1 Viewer)

[pur_berger]

I've arranged my theme folders so as I now have 3 themes for Avallanche......white......

Did you have a chance to test the new basic home as I have seen that the right entry in your setup is bigger than the ones I use (Moving Pictures)?[DOUBLEPOST=1364970496][/DOUBLEPOST]

By the way, I've uploaded a new version in the second post.

Just an idea - how about a dropBox account to load the changed xml's up so all the changes are in one place - should also make it easierer to create the installer?

Yes...I obviously had to change the font value entries as my white and blue themes still use the Avalon font set but looking good so far......


A little mod...I've reworked the EQ gif file to have a transparent background......before............after......

@sweborn - I think this needs another release - there are many updates and changes happening and I think it's getting out of hand again.
Is there any chance of a roll up update please?

IMO...for what it's worth...I see Avallanche as still being Avallonis but one that works with MP ver 1.3.0...I also think that there is some way to go with bug fixes etc. For example, there doesn't seem to be much point having options in settings when they don't work, ie. list colours......View attachment 124922......and the previously mentioned sliding menu for Moving Pictures "enable infos at bottom of the screen" option. I think known bugs/issues should be listed on the first post.

Also, some of the descriptions in settings are pretty ambiguous...I still have no idea what some of them are referring to or what they are supposed to change. The settings menus could be reworked to be more user friendly.[DOUBLEPOST=1364483750][/DOUBLEPOST]@sweborn

I think some of the co-ordinates need looking at......View attachment 124923

I've done some research with the problem of info/no info view in moving pictures/TV-series. Apparently the settings are not perceived when the moving pictures/TV-series files are located in a theme folder. Moving them to the default/root folder solves the problem. Uninstall the old version of Avallanche and install the new one (Avallanche v1.4.0.6). It will put the files in the right direction.

Defining the text color in settings/misc is working now. Reference.xml is moved to default directory. This will change the font to the same color in default as the Avallanche theme. I can not find any other solution. The problem is probably in the Avallonis plugin file.

The graphics in pendling recordings should now display properly.

I take a look at some of the other settings later on....

If you want me to create a shared folder in dropbox, I ned your email addresses. Send me a PM and i will add you.

Just a quick request to stop the 2nd post getting stupid long
Can you please encase the change log (and anything else you see fit) in [collapse ] [/collapse ] tags (without the spaces) - this creates the expandable 'spoiler' type boxes.
I'll pop the older stuff in now so you can see

And thanks for the update

In hindsight, this makes perfect sense as the Avallonis plugin was created before the "themes" folder was supported. The only problem I can foresee now is that the Moving Pictures/TV Series files are now locked into one theme, ie. unable to have blue, white and ice colour versions of these files in the "themes" folder without breaking the settings options. It's a fix for now but not ideal.

Obviously, the plugin drivers need to be reworked to support the "themes" option...I could have a poke around with Visual Studio but this isn't my forte...anyone out there with C# skills?

Well done for finding.
