It will fail the unzip consistently probably because of unsupported characters or where the path/name is too long for FATX.
Second thing is that UnleashX's unzip tool does not like something in the zipped 625 UnleashX skin pack. If you want them to work they have to be extracted from their parent folder(s) before install. I've not seen that done before.Ī couple of things to watch out for is that a good number of the UnleashX skins are double packed and some folders are actually mini skin pack sub-sets. ini files so can be installed either as UnleashX or EvoX skins. There is also a set of Xecuter 3 skins, two Mame skins and, interestingly, a handful of what appear to be dual dash skins ie. Although I might have missed some there are at least 85 EvoX skins included. I've checked that 625 UnleashX ski pack pretty thoroughly. A fair number of older XBMC skins are not worth trying to use as they have issues with recent XBMC builds but it can be quite interesting finding out what does still work.īTW I'd recommend always testing older skins first on a XBMC copy installed as an app and not on a XBMC main dash.
They often include additional skin packs for the most commonly used Xbox dashboards.įinding old XBMC skins too is now much harder, you'd think there would be an archive here or a links to somewhere they could be easily found and downloaded.
You might try looking for old AID (Auto Installer Deluxe) downloads and SPPV's Babylon series which are effectively AID updates.
Why the guys posting such stuff did not provide any download links, working now or not, is strange. That is particularly true of those links from YT videos posted as recently as 18 months ago, showing many EvoX skins I've never seen before. If you Google search EvoX skins now almost all the links you'll find are dead which is annoying. Hope it is OK to say this here but Xbox-HQ is about the only place now you'll find a range of skins but even then it is pretty limited in comparison with what used to be easily available. It is a pain separating them out and I'm certainly not going to go through 625 skins myself at this time but I've found over a dozen of those just listed from A - C which are EvoX skins.Īmongst them are "ArcX", "Armageddon", "ass1", "Atomguy", "Austin Powers Goldmember", the three "blackbolt" ones, "BlackVoodoo", "blade", "Britbutt", "Cargo", "carmella", "carmen_electra", "christina", "CrackedBox" and "cyberfab". There are more than just a few EvoX skins in that pack. INI when you have a couple of hundred skins installed to search through is a very tedious job. There is no problem with that if the source skin is not installed but if it is either one or the other will not display in your skin list or displays with the, IMHO ugly, default EvoX background.įinding the offending skin which has used the other's. There are also cases where they've not even changed the EvoX skin name, copying in an. INI even though in some cases it made the skin unusable because of the background image used. the menu/information layout is just added on top via the. That means any old pictures can be and were used. Problem with EvoX skins is that they're made up of just two images at most: a main background and sometimes, not always, a different loading screen. Whilst I think I've archived them somewhere like those two UX skins they're definitely not installed for use on any of my Xboxes. There was one small set of niche fetishistic, hentai and extreme subject matter skins I found once which were definitely not to my taste at all. There are some 'adult' skins out there like two old UnleashX ones that use certain notorious YT videos featuring well known female US celebrities as loading screens but I've not seen that many for EvoX. Some I've had but deleted and later regretted doing that because many of those and countless others have been lost now, probably forever. I'm a bit of a Xbox skin hoarder and I think over the years I've download just about every UnleashX, EvoX, Avalaunch and XBMC skin worth having which were available at the time. It'll be interesting to go through all the skins included in that pack, I've already found one UX skin I do not have. I'll post a screenshot of what I've done if anyone is interested. I've done some serious editing work on it recently to improve it. I actually used Rocky5's UnleashX converter tool on that skin as it works particular well as an UnleashX skin too. I recommend the "blackbolt_consolev4" as a good-ish EvoX skin. After a quick perusal many of the skins are UX ones (identified by their config.xml) but there are a number of EvoX skins (identified by their evox.ini) mixed in too. That skin pack linked too is actually named as 625 UnleashX skins.
