Skin Change From Main Menu(Download Here)

[darrin75]

Heres a small exe. to change to the blueskin from the main menu.  Place this Blueskin.exe in you gbpvr directory.  Next you will need to create a Custom Task Plugin and point to the Blueskin.exe.  Name it whatever you want.  test this if people like it i can write some different ones.  This is just testing here.  Post suggestions feedback etc.  Try it i like it.  Comes in handy with MVP...


**Side Note**
If using with MVp make sure you have your autoserver set to 1.  So when it try to connect when it switches skins, it will come right up..



DONT USE THIS ONE LOOK DOWN THE THREAD

Quick note you must not have any other windows open, also be sure to check the box in customtask when setting up the button, i think it says hide gbpvr..

Update

Added small delays also added gbpvr.exe so that it will reload, its self again with the new skin....

[darrin75]

Until i modify some stuff this currently works best for mvp users. The pc version will follow when i am able to hide some active windows and such.. So stay tuned..

[darrin75]

i mostly use one or two skin, pm me if you want to use a certain set of skins..Ex: media, and tivo, or blue and red..

[darrin75]

I think i may released this too soon, so play around with it.. If enough people are interested in doing this i will work on it somemore and do an update with alot of the so called problems it has..

[darrin75]

But MVP users will love this..

enough posts darrin75?

you could probably get sub to add a method to force a reload of gbpvr, so you could edit the config.xml then force a reload, so you dont actually have to close down gbpvr. if the settings feature goes ahead, a skin changer would be very usefull in it.

that method would be useful for the settings plugin as well.
