« on: August 18, 2008, 07:17 AM »
Is there a way to create your own skins for the latest release?

Thanks for your replies :)

you need to get the builder that mouser mentions in this thread.

More skins for FARR (Find and Run Robot) are actually available along with a skin builder here:

Download the skin packs (and the builder if you want to make your own).

I tried it out, and when i tested the new skin, FARR gave me an error message, something like "This skin is for older versions".

Err... Help?

yeah, I was trying to make a skin and ran into the same problem - even worse, if you accidentally save with a favorite skin open then you'll have to reinstall to get it back :)

Mouser, did you find out anything? or does anyone else know how to bypass this?
