me too, any incoming from the makers? Big Grin

EDIT: after a bit of messing, I've seen the skin version is 2.8.2 which requires a nightly build from at least 21 february 2011, so I guess standard dharma users are out of luck? This shouldn't really be happening... why not fork it? Dharma users are majority, and we are out? Or I am completely wrong?

I've also tried setting a custom image, but it won't display either

LAST EDIT: http://forum.xbmc.org/showpost.php?p=733...count=1721 here you have the solution... thanks hitcher.

You might find you allready have the Zip check addons\packages as it saves tehm here when installed.
Also no need to uninstall the new one just rename it then you can run both.

My own personal repo was always for the the 'cutting edge' versions; if you want stable then stick to the official repo versions.

The official only has alaska and alaska revisited mod. I was using alaska revisited. Or are the latter two the same?

When can we expect to see Alaska Revisited (Official Final) in the XBMC repo.

I like using your personal repo because my skin of choice is Alaska Revisited.

Then I guess getting alaska revisited 2.7.6 should do it for now, doesn't it? Wink

Skin updates on the official repo are on-hold until Dharma 10.1 is released that fixes the 'skin update bug'.

Where can I find Alaska 2.7.6? XBMC + Alaska is unusable right now because I don't grab nightly XBMC builds.

Windows:

/Users/username/AppData/Roaming/XBMC/addons/packages

Linux:

/home/xbmc/.xbmc/addons/packages

Inside those directories you will see .zip files of every version of every addon you have installed.
