Thanks. Artic has made XBMC more enjoyable, especailly for the wife. I look forwarc to the "final" artic hitting the dev repo so I can do a clean install from scratch as I have a couple of odd directopries floating around.
When my pivos boxes support Gotham, or i upgrade them, I'll move to MkIII or eminence.
Thanks again for your work. Best XBMC skin around if you ask me.

Currently I'm really busy with uni so unfortunately I don't have the time to go hunting down the issue with the reboot loop, especially as it doesn't happen on my machine and I don't use openelec (I use linux but not openelec). If someone figures out what the issue is, please post the fix and I'll gladly make the changes on git.

@
reboot loop, latest Arctic on Github works now
"clean unmatched ]" did the trick
. Thank you! Zip is still damaged though.
@Further development, thx alot Jurial. Looking forward to mk.iii and if you ever have the time, would be great if you could fix this strange overlap issue on the codec info on gotham.
VideoFullScreen.xml > something like this should do it, but im sure you can do it better
Code:

Does Artic support custom main menu items? I have smart playlists for Bluray and 3D Bluray and I couldn't figure out a way to add them to the main menu so I was forced to switch to Aeon. Also does it work with Gotham?

Works with Gotham.
For custom menus > Settings > Skin > Home > "Manage custom home items".
This is what the new typeface looks like for me:
This is on Windows 8.1, Gotham Beta 1 (was the same in alpha 11)
Could someone point me to the files I need to get the old fonts back on the newer git version? The new fonts have many issues for me and look strange?
If posting link to font is not allowed a pm is welcome
Also, what other files need replacing,
Could someone wrap up the files needed to return to the original font (I'm using latest git)
Cheers
Hi All,
Is there an option to delete Movies, TV Shows etc from the GUI not just remove from library?
Very nice Skin by the way,
Thanks Ian

I would love to know this as well... Stupid me, I didn't backup
I have no back up either
I updated before I even read there was a change (stupid) now it's very untidy and some scrolling text on placed where is never was?
I know we need the font and the 1080 fonts XML but a chance someone could update to a download link with all required changes so a copy and paste over the top is all that's required?
Hopefully some can point in the right direction.
Love the skin, miss the font
Hey guys,
i would like to give this skin a try but i'm facing difficulties in extracting it.
I downloaded the .zip file from github and tried to extract it but 7zip had the error: "unknown compression method"
Any suggestions?
Thanks

why aren't you using XBMC to install the zip?

if so, yes... this is correct
Yes I did, but it didn't work as well.
So i tried the manual way.
any chance the zip is corrupted?

Sorry it seems the forum scales down the image I posted so the issue isn't really visible. I hope this makes it clearer:

I just downloaded the zip and it seems you're right. Neither WinRAR nor 7Zip can extract the zip

ah! now i see.
yeah, it's a shame that @
jurialmunkey had to change fonts.
hopefully he can find something that works better in the future.
I tried the arctic big link posted a few days ago and it is working great. Fonts are the old ones and the zip extracted just fine.
