I'm sorry, you mean someone should make a mod of Aeon that looks like Horizons, which is... a mod of Aeon??!

I think the universe just collapsed onto itself.

Erm I don't think the universe did collapse smart arse :;):

I know Horizons is a mod of Aeon but this may shock a pea brain like you :rofl: but I prefer Aeon but I like the idea of the dvd and music cases!

maybe next time you should go to the nearest mirror and have a good word with yourself before trying to be a smart arse :grin:

If a skilled modder came forward and said "well it can't really be done due to how Aeon works" then fair enough I'll let the thread die lol

It can be done, and wouldn't be 'too' difficult, but you just have to find someone interested in it....

OR

Have go yourself and learn a bit. You might just find you figure it out.

Are you sure the cases in Horizon is added by the skin? 'cause there used to be a dvd/cd cover site where all the covers had the cases as part of each cover image.

well I have tracked down the original frames from Horizonz III but they are a *.xpr file and for the life of me I can't find a windows based program to extract it lol

Inside the media/thumbs folder are the images(movieposter_frame.png, movieposter_mask.png, poster_glass.png, etc..) that DVD Posters sit inside then you change those images to the cases you like. That would give you a crude start from there you would have to tweak some settings in showcase.xml.

Ironically, I just edited my media/thumbs images to get rid of the glass overlays.

I'm surprised by how many people don't like the clean look.
