XBMC_PC Win32 GUI Development Environment for skinners (skin developers)

Freddo · 2008-10-01 21:25

Does anyone build this anymore? T3ch's stopped including it with his builds a whiles back and I can't find a good guide for compiling it.

Why would you want it instead of XBMC for Windows?
(I am pretty sure Jonathan stopped maintaining it code-wise)

Rand Al Thor · 2008-10-01 21:35

it has quick access to refresh, change res, etc. I know it is easier for me to use when skinning.

Freddo · 2008-10-01 21:48

yeah and the open any window with a quick number entry feature, that's what I really need.

**jmarshall** · 2008-10-01 22:39

It should still build I think - I won't personally be maintaining it though.

Have you tried building it?

Cheers,
Jonathan

I haven't no, is there a guide somewhere I can follow? Using VS2008.

I built one recently for skinning myself. Surprised the heck out of me that it worked. Big Grin

Note that the above is for XBMC for windows (SDL/opengl) - not the directx version which was what Freddo is after. You need VS 2k3 and the DirectX SDK for the other one, though it'll probably build fine with 2k8 if you upgrade the project files.

I'm just trying that now, I'll let you know how it turns out...

okay it didn't work i'll keep fiddling around but I don't really know what I'm doing, is there any point posting the build log or anything?
