Main Menu Background... Change amount of time that image is shown for.
#1
Hi,

I can't for the life of me find the relevent code that controls the time that a main menu background image is shown for.

Any pointers?

Thanks!

Look inside Includes_Backgrounds.xml

Then a few lines down you will see...

<include name="BackgroundTimings">
<timeperimage>7000</timeperimage>
<randomize>true</randomize>
<fadetime>1000</fadetime>
</include>

From there change the timeperimage. Enjoy!

Awesome information, thanks. I wish there was a simple way to have a "quick facts" section for simple code like this - somewhere where all of these samples could be easily found, as this thread will likely disappear as newer threads are created...

I know this skin pretty well, but it is complicated. Pretty much all features are divided out between a 2 xml's. It would take forever to create a quick facts sheet because this skin is complex compared to others.

If you have a question about anything just ask and I will do my best to answer it.

just named different. make sure you change it in the next two includes as well or timings will vary throughout the skin,

<include name="BackgroundVarsGlobal">
<include>FullscreenDimensions</include>
<timeperimage>20000</timeperimage>
<randomize>true</randomize>
<fadetime>1000</fadetime>
<include>Animation_BackgroundFade</include>
<visible>!Control.IsVisible(52) | [Control.IsVisible(52) + Skin.HasSetting(nocurtains)]</visible>
</include>
