To help install and manage skins i've put together a skin manager.
Note: Custom skins require Yifalicious v0.7.1 or higherI will be keeping this application up to date with new releases of Yiffalicious.
Important Files:The application needs the following files to run properly:
Included in the release
- YiffaliciousSkinManager.exe - main application
- YiffaliciousSkinManager.exe.config - application configuration settings
- yiffaliciousSkinSlots.json - configuration data for ingame skin layout
Files Generated by the application- skindb.json - keeps track of your skins
- %appdata%\YiffaliciousSkinManager\user.config - user specific in-app settings
How to use the app:If you have not done so, set your "Skin Folder" using the [...] button. This folder is where your .ZIP files will be stored.
When you download a ZIP file, you can either:
1: Drag the skin onto the right hand panel to add it to the skin db and skin folder
2: Place it in the "Skin Folder" you specified and manually refresh the skin db
Note: You can remove skins from your skin folder by right clicking and selecting 'Delete Skin Zip', this will not remove the skin from the in game slot.
To install a skin into the game folders:
1: Drag the skin you want to install (from the right) onto a character skin slot (on the left)
2: To set the skin slot back to defaults, right click and select "clear"
Note: You can only drag skins onto the correct character and body part.

Unless there's a way around this i don't know about.
Also, I forgot to mention that for some reason it only shows the skins slots (eve though they are crammed into a small menu box).
I know the game is mostly windows oriented and the skin manager is still early in it's stages so maybe it'll correct it's self along the way.
Do you have trouble setting up the right folder structure? There are small differences between the subfolder names depending on the character.
Unfortunately it won't work for me. I followed your instructions, and my skins show up in your tool, but when I drag them onto their respective slot, it won't let me drop it there. It does work with other custom skins I downloaded here in the forum tho. I compared my folders to those of other custom skins and it looks right to me. I have no idea why the tool won't let me use my skins, despite showing them in the right panel.
if you PM me the skin you're trying to zip up i'll look at it and let you know what's wrong.
Well it's a custom rhino skin I made. I downloaded a custom rhino skin by someone else and did everything as the other skins author did. Same folder structure, same file names. His skin works, but my skin doesn't.
Sure, I'll send you the skin later when I'm back home. Thanks.
If you are using the Patrons only version, then I'm less sure. Are you dragging the custom skin onto one of the characters alternate skins, meaning you just have to switch that characters skin in game? I'm not quite sure what wouldn't be working if this were the case.
Great tool you've got here.
If there was one suggestion I'd have, it would likely be to have a right click drop down that let you choose the slot immediately.
Sometimes when I drag the skin, it doesn't register that I'm dragging. I just had a play around, and it seems if you drag from the 'text' area of the skin, it doesn't drag, you need to drag from the top section.
But overall, when I'm trying to do this quickly and not thinking about it, it can sometimes take multiple times to do it (Although, now that I've figured it out... probably not).
Overall that isn't particularly intuitive since the image takes up the entire 'square', but you can only drag from the top section.
Anyway, back to my suggestion. A much quicker way IMO, especially once the skin collection grows would be to right click -> Assign to Slot X (Where there would be an option for each available slot). This means you don't have to worry about dragging it all the way to the left or anything.
That would be my 2 cents anyway.
Still catches me off guard you cant drag+drop+right click from the text area. But still definitely like the right click option more.

EDIT: Never mind, the problem fixed itself.
P.s Yes, I've seen the first post of yours but i'm still clueless.
