Topic: Black, black and more black

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

I have just downloaded the atomixmp3 player and I have some problems. The background is black, the crossfader is black, the automix button is back, and the volume slider controls are you guessed it - Black. I have dowloaded another skin but am not sure what to do with it. I tried taking the default skin out of the skin directory and putting the downloaded on in the directory. I get an error message Invalid 'skin.' My songs also appear as very small silver or gold disk, rather that as a list of songs. The centres of the decks are also black, so I cannot see the name of the song or any text. Apart from this it's all going well!

By any chance are you playing too much AC/DC?
Just kidding. We can all use a little humor now and then.

No! Sadly, this is all true. I like Black music. I am a trouble disciple.

Perhaps I should describe what I can see on my default skin. I see the outline of the turntables,varispeed,beatmix, bass, medium,high,gain buttons,the streaming waves,effects,samples,record, options and the playlist with the songs as gold or silver tiny disks.
Also my system is an Evesham 1Gb athlon, 128K RAM, on board graphics and sound cards, 40Gb hard drive, Windows ME operating system. All offers of help will be gladly appreciated.

Hi there !

Not sure what the actual problem is but if you have downloaded a new skin simply unzip the file into your Atomix/skins folder and then select the relevant skin in the options menu...

Try any of the skins by Janosch..they are excellent, I use the Darkfun skins when working out live as they look the job.

Good luck !!

Lisen to me
I got a skin from addons and it doesn't work
(I think it's because of my old atomix, it doesn't update)
I have ONLY 2 skins: Default & Denon.

Thanks Stu. The problem is the option button is not visible. Yes you guessed it - it is black. When I put my cursor over it a yellow pop up comes up with options on it, so I can locate it. I presume I get a drop down menu, which I cannot see. Just once I have located the skins option. How many options lines are there and what are they, and in what order?
Thanks for your help.

if you have ever run a cracked version of Atomix... you should try to completely uninstall any versions that you have, including all registry entries... then re-install either the demo, or if you have since bought it, reinstall the full version. I'll bet this would help your problem.

Thanks very much for all the sugestions! I have sorted it now. I dowloaded some more skins and switching between them brings the default skin to life! I still have to find it in the dark though! Each time I start the program, my skin is mostly black in the bottom half of the screen. When I hang my mouse over the buttons (options etc) I get a yellow pop up message with the buttons name. After clicking options, I have to guess where the change skin line is. When I find it, I again get a yellow pop-up message, which I click. Switching between the skins and they wake up after a few switches. This is pretty desperate, but I stuck some house on last night and produced my first atempt at a mix tape.

It is certainly easier than with my 2 technics SL1200 Mk2's and my mixer! My NJD DM600 mixer has split cue mixing too! (If you are not sure what this means : this means I can listen to the music from the deck that's playing in one ear of the headphones, while trying to match the beats from the music from the other deck in the other ear of the headphones simaltaneously)
