MIX 8 Skin in MIX 9

Post by outteh »

Noticed in the log file that there are a lot of errors from *.PNG missing files when using the Mixcraft 8 skin in Mixcraft 9 Pro. Not as big issue I don't think but it does slow down load times a bit. :D Using Mixcraft 9 Pro Studio, Build 442, 64 bit. :D

I'll have to check later but I think some of those were fixed in later builds. Maybe not all but definitely many.

Hi,

You're actually noticing a difference in load time with different skins? I haven't noticed any difference in loading time. Are you using build 447?

Let's see, I've got these missing:

mixrez\skins\mix8\clip-mute-3.png
mixrez\skins\mix8\button-flat-active.png
mixrez\skins\mix8\button-sharp-active.png
mixrez\skins\mix8\details-undock-3.png
mixrez\skins\mix8\play-3.png

Do you have others that are missing beyond this? Make sure you've got build 447 or higher.

Load time difference is in seconds, and yes most of the skins I saw missing were the ones you have Greg. I'm on build 442. I'm not doing beta testing this time. :D :(

Hi,

Build 447 is the release build, so you might try updating to that and see if loading time improves.

I tested it in beta build 450, so we know those files are still missing. I'll file a bug report.

I must have missed the announcement for build 447? And I guess the program still doesn't check for updates on it's own? :D

Hi,

It does, but only periodically in the interest of not being annoying. Also, firewalls can interfere with update checks.

My bad! I have Mixcraft 9 on a Win 7 and Win 10 dual boot. I updated the Win 10 when I got the notice, forgot about Win 7! Greg, is there an .ini tweak we can do to let the program tell us more often about updates? :D

Hi,

No, there's not an option to increase the frequency of update checks.

Tom, Acoustica is working on new builds with beta testers, etc all the time, so I check for updates regularly... It only takes a few seconds. Anyway, best regards. :D

Can we make the Update announcement post a sticky at the top so we don't have to hunt for it? It's currently on page 4.

Or were you referring to something else?
