Here is what I have done so far:

- Dialog screens (Text realigned - completed)
- TV Views (List Info 2 view, List View and Thumbs Info View completed)
- Topbar menu Text realigned - completed)
- IMDB Ratings Text realigned - completed)
- Scrolling View Text repositioned - completed) <- not quite sure what this is called. It is the Letters that show up while scrolling through movies & tv shows.
- Info View (while watching a movie or tv show text has been realigned - completed)
- Pause screen (Text, images and clearart have all been realigned - completed)

I still have to add the Settings Level button to the System Settings screen. This is proving to be extremely frustrating so far. Maybe someone can have a go at it. Other than that, the skin is performing quite well.

I will post the my modded version to anyone who is willing to help me with it. I will also post some updated screenshots of this version, especially how the metadata actors screens blend in perfectly with Rapier.

Cheers
Shedrock

Was this ever completed && released?

Hi all.

I am very busy at work at the moment.

Currently I'm working on one final version for Frodo, which should be ready very soon. After that I will focus everything on updating the skin to Gotham.

Thanks for the support and nice words! Smile

Hi to all,

I have been using XBMC for a while, and this skin is the best, I have a media network in my house with 4 HTPC and a media server, all of them (clients and server) with XBMC 12.2 with the rapier 5.6.1 skin in windows 7, I have the DB in MySQL and everything works fine except for one thing, in the server which has access to local files and fills up the DB is working 100% ok, but in the media clients the rapier skin doesn't show the recently added movies or tvshows in the main screen, if I enter the recently added I can see the movies and posters and everything is fine, just in the main screen where it shows like 5 movies, its blank, I can navigate in that part but I cannot play o know which movie is selected.

can anyone help me with that?

thanks in advance

Hi hsaul17.

It sounds like a cool setup Smile

Does everything work perfectly with the recently added widgets on the home screen for your server? Do all of your clients have the script service.skin.widgets installed? Are the recently added widgets activated in the Rapier skin settings on your clients?

The recently added submenu enters XBMC's library and recently added. The recently added widgets on the home screen use the script service.skin.widgets to fill the list.

Still the best skin out there. I can't wait for Gotham.

Do you have an ETA on the Gotham version?

Thanks for all your hard work Gade.

Thanks a lot, Shedrock.

I have to start from the top for the Gotham version, so I really can't tell yet and don't know how much coding it takes. A lot of people are waiting, so I will try to hurry.

I still have some vacation left, so there should be plenty of spare time for me the next week or so Smile

Gade


Edit: I just began work for the Gotham version and it doesn't seem too hard Smile

Hey Gade,

Big thanks for the final update. Looking fwd to taking it for a spin.

Can I ask you to post the uncompressed textures please? I requested this in the past, so if nothing has changed, I can possibly continue to use those. If not, it would be much appreciated to get the new version.

Looking fwd to the Gotham rollout so I can take the new XBMC for a spin. Won't switch til I can have Rapier. Wink[/align]

Hi 12inch.

Thanks for the nice words. Smile

I actually think there will be one more version for Frodo, as I'm currently making some small fixes for the Gotham version, which I might as well include in the Frodo version.

The uncompressed textures are always posted in the first post in this thread.
