xbmc4gamers art work

[SS_Dave]

Hi all

I have a customer that want's the original M$ dash as a app and I can easily set that with a short cut but I am having issues making the artwork to display in xbmc4gamers ( I had a look at the stuff from Rocky5's GitHub on making the images needed and that went over my head). I have looked at the artwork installer but there is nothing there so I am hoping some one here has made the appropriate files I can copy to the folder for the M$ dash.

 

Cheers

Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

I couldn't ever really get it to work with the dash, even when it seemed to be downloading and installing properly...

I have the M$ dash working as a application in the Applications folder but I can't get my head around making the fancy images to make it look pretty with the "Xbox Artwork Installer Artwork Builder" program.

Easy to do, either use a duplicate copy of ms dash on E with the xbe named default, or a shortcut pointing to the on C, shortcut named default. Then drop your resources folder in that dup or shortcutted folder.

That's kinda cool. Why is the contrast so weird?

Its the background picture - I goggled it real quick to see if i could get this to work.  Also, my led lights above are reflecting.

Didn't even think of that! 100%!  I'm always taking screenshots by accident and never when it's needed = fail!
