[oreweller]

Hi, I need your help!! I want modify a Skin. When I open a Skin with the Skintool and I click on the save button (with changes or without), when i activate the skin on freebox, freebox will crash!!

I used the full version of Freebox V4 and the demo V6 on Windows XP SP2 + SP3, but everytime it's the same.

I don't know what I do wrong, please help me!

PS: Sorry for the bad english

I think you answered your own question. V4 Freebox with v6 skintool.

[oreweller]

No I used Skintool V4 with Freebox V4 and I tested the Skintool V6 with Freebox V6 demo, but everytime it's the same.

Which skin are you trying to modify?
How does it crash and do you get any error messages. You need to be more specific.
It sounds like you have some files missing.

I want to modify the black and blue 800x600 skin.
I get no error message. The Freebox window gets white like this:   
The taskmanager says no responding and freebox uses 100% CPU.

Ok, are you using an english copy of windows? I ask because not all countries use . for a demial place and that can cause issues.

[oreweller]

No, I use a german windows xp.
Did that mean i must use a english version of windows??

No, I use a german windows xp.

If you are using . for a decimal point it should be fine. However if you are using , then you will have problems. I think you can change that in the number settings of windows.

Now I changed the number settings and it works!!!!
Thanks Barry you are the best!!
Cheers!

Sorry for the issues it is to do with how the files are read in. It sees , as a seperator in the data. I could probably get around it using " to enclose the line as 1 string I am not sure as it's not a common issue. Glad you are up and running.
