New Skinner on the Block
« on: July 31, 2006, 03:36:32 AM »
Woo! While (unfortunately) this skin wouldn't fly with HTC online, I was playing around and present for your flames my first skin:



This is what I'd use in a D-Hog if HTC ever allowed 100% custom skins (bonus points to whoever can figure out the joke/reference behind using this particular fuselage number, why it's red, and TECHNICALLY why I SHOULDN'T have).

This was just a test run, and I plan on setting my sights on something REAL next.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

FYI to those that might not know, you can use ".time" as a command. it uses a 24 hour clock.

format:

.time xx yy z
where xx = hours (if you use single digit that's fine)
where yy = minutes
where z = time speed multiplier.


So typing ".time 8 30 0" will set the time to 8:30 AM and it won't change. Typing ".time 14 45 10" means that it will be 2:45PM and that the sun will travel 10 times faster than normal along its path.

This is very useful for setting up screenshots. You can set the plane on a level course, set the time to 8:30 or so to get screenshots of one side (sun hits that side) and then set it to 15:30 or so to get screenshots of the other side, and then 11AM or so for screenshots of the top.

Used to, but haven't for a while.

And it was about 4 in the morning when I took that screen, so was looking to get the screen done quick. :D
