RE: OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data - bossanova808 - 2019-03-04

@wacko37 Well, I very reluctantly made a file for the monstrosity that is Estuary (which is 1080p - so would be easy to work from).  But I will only support the standard skin and whatever other skin(s) I use (Confluence, at the moment).  I consider the addon my bit, others can deal with their own skin wishes.  It's really not hard to do a MyWeather.xml - even if you were completely new to Kodi skinning you could probably do most of it in an evening.  So I shall leave that as 'an exercise for the reader' - happy to help with specific bits if you get stuck, but not gonna spend my time doing it from scratch (and forever more updating it) - given I will never use it.

I totally understand and thankyou for taking the time to respond. Cheers

@bossanova808  Firstly big thanks for giving me the push i needed to modify this for myself, wasn't that hard after all Smile

Well i kind of cheated as i used the skin "Aeon MQ5 (Gotham era)" by @uksa007  which worked in MQ8 but the resolution was for 720p. So big thanks to @uksa007 also!

I have also made some changes like the background, font and font colour, which means i also had to modify the font.xml for MQ8.

I can provide the files needed if anyone is interested, or if @bossanova808 want to add them to the addon wiki.

@wacko37 Good job!  You can actually go ahead and add them to the wiki too - that's the point of a wiki, it's a community editable resource.  It's even easier than making the skin file!

I would very much like the files please.
I am using OzWeather with AeonMQ 8 but have a horrible blue background that I do not know how to change.
Thank you

@bossanova808 ,

Just a quick note, have added a place holder entry about my skins integration of your weather script to your wiki. Now realise that my wiki page is horribly out of date, so after I have cleaned things up there, will add some pictures to go along with the wiki text.

@benrita  I will be adding everything to the wiki today with readme.txt instructions.

Yes on here:  https://kodi.wiki/index.php?title=Add-on:Oz_Weather

Sadly im waiting on account so i can edit the wiki


RE: OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data - wacko37 - 2019-03-06

@benrita @bossanova808  Looks like editing the Wiki will take some time (may not happen at all) so you can find the needed files at https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1EbADBR73vhVVBZykavWvq3bqerpe1yco?usp=sharing
