      Don't worry, your English is great. If anything your pace may be a bit fast for some, but this just saves the the trouble of putting you on x1,5 or x2 to scrub through your video.
      I think you cover a shitton of information, but focussing purely on the OSU side and letting people figure out their creative software for themselves would be better to keep some focus.
      The thing I'm struggling with is keeping track of all the files that I need to make/change to make a decent and coherent skin.
      I'd like to see you go over your workflow/project to see how you build one, while leaving the creative choices aside.

      @AnimEz_Boy28 You can follow the official skinning tutorial on the osu site to get the filenames for your image assets, and I recommend creating your basic .ini file with osuskinner.

    Okay, to help you explain the .png image in layman's terms:
    .PNG image files are really good images. Why? Here's why.
    .JPEG images has more than *16 million* different colors at use.
    .GIF images can only have 256 colors but supports transparency and animations. (Thus why .gif images are prevalent.)
    .PNG? Can go at par with JPEG's color range whilst able to support GIF's transparency. (Fun fact: PNG can also support animations. The more you know.)
    So yeah. Hope this helps.

    @trylockon Před 4 lety +3

    There's a lot of cool things you can do to make your skin unique. For example using default-N elements as your hitcirles and making your hitcirles transparent to disable fading out animation or putting your hp bar in the middle. I'd sugest everyone to look into other people's skins, the easiest way to understand how certain skin's features are working is looking at the files itself and comparing them to your skin's files. You will learn a lot quicker this way.

  • @verflucht5774
    @verflucht5774 Před 4 lety

    I think making a dedicated video about skins is a big plus, since I also do a little of skin mixing, thought I don't make my own skin elements and skin.ini tweaking, heck even animated elements on skin, so I think this is a must.

    I assume skins do what they do with combo colours because there's something somewhere in the game where Combo1 comes first and in binary order Combo1 in your .ini would be combo 0 and combo2 is combo1. So it referenced them from 2 first and has to finish the sequence with the first one to avoid a crash

    I started making a skin a week ago and by now I'm pretty much done with skinning osu!standard, even though it took me far more than it should because I had to learn by trial and error, and this tutorial was a nice way to check if I actually did it the right way.
    Do you plan on making any taiko/catch/mania skinning tutorial?

      taiko is possible, mania, I haven't learned it yet (it's by far the most complex one)

    meteu uma aula de como editar e ainda ensinou a fazer a parada no osu!

    I'm actually looking forward to the transparent anime girl thing
