Just to clarify... are you referring to the textures.xbt file, or XBMC itself?

nope, it's about Transparency! v3.15.1
did you download it from the official xbmc addon repo?

As mentioned earlier in the thread, I have the exact same problem, and in my case I got the skin update through the built in Addon system in XBMC. I have never used any SVN/Git versions, so I dont have anything old lying around.

Is there anything I can check regarding the textures.xbt file in my install, that you can compare to see if its broken? Like CRC, or file size or something. Compared to a file you know is working. Or is there a way to "reupdate" the skin files etc? Maybe something got corrupted when the skin was updated?

Downloaded via XBMC 11.0... I mean 10.1. Wink

Same here. I just added it through XBMC - originally 10.0

After the initial troubles after upgrading to 10.1, I deleted it it and readded it, but again via XBMC

I am new to this but since getting the latest build I have been having the same problem with the weather. Also having issues with T! moving slowly between the home menu and submenu's. I got this version from the XBMC Addon within the program and am running Win7 64.

Great Skin!

Any status update for this issue? I'm starting to get tired of blinking weather icons Sad

It looks so damn bad with this amazing skin.

You can turn off the animation in the skin settings, and that will stop the blinking.

The "test" method that Ronie made - replacing the media folder, fixed the animations for me. He said to undo it because it wasn't complete, but I just left it and don't seem to be missing anything.
