This page is for reverting the XML and viewer artwork files in the 1.20 viewer back to their pre-1.20 viewer state. There are several steps you need to go through to rebuild the classic viewer look.
Editing the XML files
Editing the XML files can be a tedious, and any error (even a " missing or out of place) will cause the viewer to crash on startup. For convenience, I've uploaded the necessary changed xml files here. If you'd like to make the changes the yourself, here are the files and parameters you need to update:
colors.xml
textures.xml
Viewer Artwork
Starting from scratch
Most of the viewer artwork is in the source drop. Head to the Source_archive and download the 1.9.1.4 artwork file. Under linden\indra\newview\skins\textures you'll find the majority artwork files for the classic skin as either .tga or .j2c (Jpeg2000 files). All are named as UUIDs, and will need to be renamed. Several files will also need to be converted to .tga. These are:
16d032e8-817b-4368-8a4e-b7b947ae3889.j2c to tab_top_selected_blue.tga 1ed83f57-41cf-4052-a3b4-2e8bb78d8191.j2c to tab_top_blue.tga 1097dcb3-aef9-8152-f471-431d840ea89e.j2c to tab_left.tga bea77041-5835-1661-f298-47e2d32b7a70.j2c to tab_left_selected.tga bf0a8779-689b-48c3-bb9a-6af546366ef4.j2c to tab_bottom_blue.tga c001d8fd-a869-4b6f-86a1-fdcb106df9c7.j2c to tab_bottom_selected_blue.tga d8faf8cb-ee6e-b0b5-abd9-bde873ad3461.j2c to toolbar_btn_enabled.tga f8124d60-2875-c358-7847-2acb63e5400c.j2c to toolbar_btn_disabled.tga 1eddba75-b682-110a-104e-6cdcce616a25.j2c to toolbar_btn_selected.tga
Renamed artwork files
If you wish to skip this step (and I recommend you do) I've renamed all the viewer artwork for you and attached them to a zip file. You can download that file here.
Installing
Once you have downloaded the XML and artwork files linked above, or created your own, installation is straightforward:
- Copy colors.xml to \SecondLifeReleaseCandidate\app_settings\
- Copy textures.xml to \SecondLifeReleaseCandidate\skins\textures
- Copy all artwork to \SecondLifeReleaseCandidate\skins\textures
Congratulations, you now have a Classic skin for Dazzle.
