Rainlendar FAQ

How can I create new skins?

You can find skin format documentation from the Rainlendar's help. It also contains a step by step tutorialfor making a simple xml-format skin.


You can also take a look at one of the exsting Rainlendar skins and see how it's made. Rainlendar2 skin (.r2skin) is just a normal zip archive with different file extension. The archive contains few xml files and the resources (images, scripts, ...). The skin.xml file must be in the root of the archive so make sure that when you are zipping the archive after modifications that it doesn't contain any extra folders.

During skin development you can also just unzip the archive into Rainlendar's skins-folder. This way you don't have to zip it again after each change.
