    Am working on remaking the dark skin for 887
    but not to sure when it will be ready or whats parts will be missing, but its started anyways whats good news. Fl has a new beta out in testing ...as always :rofl:so maybe it will be out before this is ready.least we still have the old skins to use till something falls into place.

    So far eveything IL have tryed with the new protection of v20 has been a wast of time and resources as we have all seen and that time and money should of realy been spent on fixing and adding new stuff to their program,
    The reason they should wory more about their customers and less about pirates
    is that its the customers that have to pay for all this and not the pirates.

    All pirates can become customers but no customers can become pirates
    with life time free updates :yes:

    Instructions are in the Read me.txt
    1. Copy the "FLEngine_x64.rus" file into your FL folder. Easiest way is -> when you've installed FL in the default location:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Image-Line\FL Studio 20

    2. To tell FL to use the skin, your registry needs to know where the file is located.
    Simply click the "Fl color.reg" to add the info to your registry (works only if you use the default directory. In case you used another folder, you need to edit the .reg file accordingly -> see example in the Read me)

    Sorry, yes, I read the "Read me.txt".
    However, the skin is present for a new project,
    but if I open a project I did before installing this skin,
    I always see the old skin.
    FL Studio 20.1.2.887 freshly installed.
    Thank you.

    Btw. The skin also works with the fl demo / the unpatched fl studio.
    Tried it with my legit license and no patch installed and it worked.

    But for some reason I had to rename the skin file from *.rus to *.en and also change that "rus" to "en"
    in the reg file to get it to work on my OS. The russian setting just didn't change anything and fl looked like always.
    Maybe it just works on english or russian systems and needs to be fixed to "en" for systems with different default
    languages.

    What DbZ describes here seems like he only gets the colors from the flp file, not from the skin itself and yes,
    they'll change when you use another project that isn't based on the skinned flp.

    mono go to FL Studio 20\Data\System and check if there is the file "(delete) effect.fst"
    If it's not existant, then try to extract it from the installer and copy it there.
    I replicated your bug by deleting that file and then I weren't able anymore to delete
    single effects. Then I restored it and the deletion worked like it should.

    If you don't want to extract, get it here: DataSystem.rar

    edit:
    Now I know what the problem was. The delphi regkey is used to define, what language file a program, written in borland delphi,
    should load while the program starts. As developer, you can add language definition files for your program and then the program
    loads respective files depending on your OS language settings automatically.

    But if you want your program to use a different language file, then you use that regkey to tell the program where to go.
    Every program, which got compiled using the delphi compiler has that option integrated, even if there is only one language
    incoded (like in FL Studio). My system doesn't have the needed resources to display russian letters correctly so that "russian language file"
    aka skin just got skipped.

    To bypass that happening, I just had to change the names from "rus" to "en" so FL "thinks" it's loading the english "language file" instead
    which then leads into loading the theme correctly.

    I made a Theme Selector with an option to go back to the default theme.

    [​IMG]

    For now it only includes the Midnight theme and the default skin.

    The best thing is:
    It automatically clears and rewrites the needed regkeys + paths to get the skin loaded correctly,
    adds the midnight skin grid color for the playlist and piano roll, places the template and makes
    it default to be loaded on every start of FL (if selected in the options).

    Additionaly the default theme, default grid color setting and default flp template is included
    as an option if you want to go back to the old greenish grey look for some reason.

    FL2012b887TS-r4e.7z

    Have fun skinning!

    Ps:
    Make sure FL isn't running when installing the theme.
    Otherwise the Theme selector will restart your PC to replace the theme at the next start.
    Will fix this soon so it checks for a running instance before and doesn't restart the pc anymore.

    @r4e thank so much, the (delete) effect.fst that you shared works ok now and i can remove the plugins like before :thanks:
    I just seen i forgot the grid color reg as well
    nice one for adding it into your cool Theme Selector and finding out how to fix the skin reg and files
    would of never taught of that myself like the (delete) effect.fst :wow:

    Wish i could do more to the skin but for now have recolored the tools and some midi stuff
    cause i was happy again lol
    The file will just need to be renamed to en if ya ever want to use it :bow:

    Ye, it's based on an old WinXp theme. Made it with the Inno Skin Builder and created several color variations
    of the highlighted elements like the buttons, progress bar, etc. to fit any situation.

    Did you see the window fade when moving the selector? Liked that feature alot in keygens and stuff
    so I added it in a similar way (as code) to my installers. Also the little music player and its graphics
    are selfmade.

    Btw. the theme selector also installs the 32bit version of mono's Midnight skin.
    Still have some old projects here that only work in the 32bit version of FL so I added the skinned RCData
    to the 32bit skin file as well.

    @DbZ, Use the theme selector. It will do everything for you.

    Ok, thanks, I'm going to use your theme selector. Good Work @r4e & @mono :wink:
    I have to throw the theme selector before opening FLS20
    or only when FLS20 is open? THX.
