The Future of Skinning, Pt. 2 (the [what I think is] bad news)

12 juni - lordcrypto | 42 kommentarer

Hi all (again),

So I've just gotten down to it, and taken a look more seriously at the layout files of the Panorama based elements.

Upside: everything's CSS based and would be really easy to customize your skin
Downside: any modified files are replaced by the original file the next time you update Steam.

Barring this being just a beta test and forcing the original files to ensure we're not messing anything up, I don't foresee skinning functionality sticking around past probably the end of the year. I know I've had a lot of fun using the skin along with all of you, but I don't think there's going to be much further development in the skinning communities given that Valve is working towards a full Panorama based client.

Thanks,
lordcrypto

The future of skinning

12 juni - lordcrypto | 42 kommentarer

Hi all, I'm not very active as far as it goes for skinning itself, but I've been involved for a long time on the back end of moderating and general super early alpha testing and design idea bouncing.

While the unofficial patch guys are working away on it, my sense of the changes being made are that this is the beginning of the end of Steam skinning. The chat is no longer laid out in VGUI to my understanding, instead using Panorama. As I'm currently away from my desktop I haven't been able to dig into these changes for myself, but from where I'm sitting now, I see this as a skin breaking change for the Panorama built parts, and I expect the amount of parts built in Panorama to fairly quickly ramp up.

Dom and I were just discussing this, and we're keeping an eye on it, but I think both of feel that when Steam eventually migrates to Panorama completely, it might be the end of Steam skinning for a while (if not altogether).
