    Hi folks,

    for all those who would like to enjoy Mediaportal on the Titanskin, I have now adapted the well-known MP games package, which includes the games Chess, Connect 4, ClickMania, Frustration, Hexxagon, Mastermind, Minesweeper, Pipes and Yahtzee, for this skin. ;)
    As usual you can play versus your HTPC or yet another person on your couch using your remote. I have tried to make the game environment a little fresher and more colorful with new graphics. You can also choose between different backgrounds in the menu, depending on what you prefer. The installer gives you the option of downloading all or just certain games, depending on your favorite. In any case, I wish you lots of fun and entertaining gameplay! ;)

    Kind regards
    High_Five

    P.S.: In the games Frustration, Hexxagon, Mastermind, Yahtzee, Chess and Connect4, the English and French language files are not recognized by Mediaportal on my PC with MP 1.34 and the German language version of the game is always displayed instead. To play the games in English or French anyway, you just have to rename the corresponding English or French language file to German. For the game Frustration, for example, the language files are located in the subfolder Frustration, path C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\language\Frustration. Here you can rename the English language file strings_en.xml to strings_de.xml, for example, to display the game in English. Of course, save the original language files first! ;)

    Here are some screenshots of the skin:

    To achieve a more standardised presentation of all MP games, I have also given Tetris and Sudoku an individual icon. In Tetris I have also added a black gradient under the text to make the header easier to read. (See pictures).

    From the attached files please put the icon_tetris.png into the folder Media\Tetris, the icon_sudoku.png and top_gradient2.png into the folder Media. (top_gradient2.png is also installed by the above installer).

    Are these separate plugins? I've never played games in Mediaportal, so I don't know. If these games are in the Mediaportal box, then we can update the skin files. If they are separate, then we can make a repository for them and MPE1.

    Chess, Connect 4, ClickMania, Frustration, Hexxagon, Mastermind, Minesweeper, Pipes and Yahtzee are separate, external plugins, Sudoku and Tetris are installed together with Mediaportal.

    I still have Mediaportal running in x86 mode. @catavolt can you confirm that the games also run in x64 mode?
