Thanks mike for you kind words. I hope to push an update on git in the next few weeks, any feedback will be great.
@mikeSiLVO and @Slipass
As you said Mike, Aeon Madnox is a heavy skin.
A compatibility update and other fixes for Leia may not be enough to make it run smooth on low spec systems. I spent some time looking at the the code for Aeon Madnox and the amount of changes required for a huge performance boost may not be possible with out re-coding the whole skin. On the other side, the git changes from mike, will improve the performance on lower spec system like Ordroid or Pi Zero. If it is enough time will tell.
The suspects i believe are (a big list), string compares, color picker, duplicate textures, variables with in variables within variables ect. , includes within includes within includes ect. , too many visibility conditions, too many animations, too may scripts pulling info from the web, bloated fonts, bloated localized strings and too big textures, hence the 300mb+ skin size. This pretty much sums up the whole skin from a coding perspective.
The end result is a skin that requires good cpu power and good memory. What ever the system specs required atm i am unsure of.
@Slipass
V2 is in the works. It may take six months, it may take a year. ArieS and myself are getting the alpha version ready for the community. Everything mentioned, i have taken into consideration for performance of low spec systems. Time will tell.
@All
Right now!!!, we have Mike's improved version of Aeon Madnox, who is doing a great job in improving the skin and performance. Feature complete and running rather well on higher spec systems. https://github.com/mikesilvo164/skin.aeon.madnox
I am waiting for the link in the forum: D
You're absolutely right. Madnox has a lot of graphics and animations but I think that's what Madnox is all about.
I'm curious to see how your version of madnox looks like.
@Mr. V Mr.
You already told me that you are open for feedback and "new" features?
Would it be interesting for you if I posted my must-have features from Madnox here?
Maybe it is possible to include them in your version?
I just need only a handful of Madnox features in the current version.
As far as I'm concerned, you can deactivate everything else. But this certainly does not apply to other Madnox users. They have reconfigured the skin and love these very personal settings. Its not easy
