Will definatelly check it out when I buy the full version!
Thanks for the high res skin
Keep up the good work. I have a lot of respect to those who make the skins since I don't know the first thing about programing them. Ask me any technical question on hardware and I'll be right there heh.
Best regards :D

VDJ team are taking their time reviewing my skin. Couple of days ago I uploaded a Russian translation XML and it took them less than a day to put it up.
So with Obsidian, I'm just going to upload it and make it available to the readers of this forum. I would still though, like to see it on the VDJ skin page.
Here's the link.
http://www.netspace.net.au/~koutanov/vdj/Obsidian%201280x1024%20v1.2%20EN%20by%20Emil%20Koutanov.zip
Basically its a complete rework of Jim Nordic's theme. Thanx Jim for the original idea. A few visual bugs fixed. Added an MFI (Multi-functional interface) that has up to 5 operating modes. Currently working on a Russified version.
Comments pls.

The Skin looks VERY good mika. I don't use the table scratch feature that much if you only have the 1 table to chose from although I will be one of the TCV users. For those who like this skin look its great!

im sorry im not in the forums much.
can u pls tell me what TCV means.
for those who dont like the 1 table scratch put the MFI selector in Obsidian to "Scratch" and you'll have two decks up to scratch with at the same time.
the little M under the VU meter activates the Master Tempo mode for all decks.
the "Beat" selector on the MFI panel has a joggle which allows you to easily adjust the beat grid (its so tedious to do with the classic "+" and "-" buttons.

Dude!!! Now this is called functionality! This is a gret skin for no-controller users and home-PCs.
Just a little suggestion, under the "beat" MFI panel, you should add some kind of safety by default, so that CGBs cannot be adjusted accidently. And I think you should reverse the direction on which the CGB is moving when spinning the whell. I think it would be better to move same as track itself.
maybe add another wheel in the beat pannel to spin the bpm value?

Good work, but..
this skin look like a "puzzle", because the used graphic is from
a lot of many different skins..
some of them:
CDJ100S (Jog)(paky g)
JN Platinum (almost all O_o)(Jim Nordic)
...and others...
When you use graphic from other skin, please mentions the authors.. ;)

credits go to paky g for the jog ;)
if you've noticed i've tinted it a lille to match the overall scheme
and as I've mentioned before to Jim for the base texture.
I was thinking of retexturing the skin completely, but functionality was more important and time was limited.
In the upcoming release I will retexture this skin to match the "old4dss" skin that is used in that Romanian DSS DJ app. It all snow-white so there'll be a lot of retexturing to do. The new project will be "Ivory". 500 downloads of Obsidian in one day, so I guess its worth pushing on with improving it.

Most newer skins won't work on older or cracked versions of VDJ.

bombjon.
line 143 is
the matching closing tag is legit, and so are the elements within this tag.
I think ad DJ Rick said, you have an older/cracked version.
This skin was developed and tested with 2.05. pity it doesnt work on older versions ;(

i've just submitted a Russian version of Obsidian... for all those "me no speak english, me drink vodka" people.
VDJ team should split their skin download page into categories. e.g. English skins | International skins

Hello!
My poor JN-Black skin has now been surpassed by its "wicked" twin... Obsidian. Creative name. Isn't that some sort of black glass?
Funny. I'm flattered that you have chosen my design to make your own version of the skin. I'm also impressed with what you've added to it. I don't mind people editing my skin to better fit their needs.
But I'm not so impressed with people copying someone else’s work, removing any trace on the skin of who originally designed it, renaming it, "copyrighting" it, and then publishing it as their own skin.
If I got this skin from somewhere else... I would have assumed that you designed the whole thing. It would have been something else if you named it "JN-Black Mika edition" or something...or gave credit to the original designer in the actual skin. (“original design by…”)
I don't know but I don't think you would find it amusing if someone copied a mix-set of yours, added a few songs and then broadcasted it onto the net as their own.
Nice work though. I like what you've added to it.
Best regards,
Jim Nordic
