You can make the gray colors lighter in an image editor (like Gimp or even Paint would probably be fine) to have them appear brighter in-game. I suggest editing a copy of the file and renaming the original so you can go back to it later for easier comparison. The skin will use whichever one is named "Hexagon128_2.png"

@Kaight Thanks for letting me know , i was generally wondering if there was a way i could edit it in a way so thanks for letting me know i can, would it be possible to let me know like how and what way to edit it to make them more brighter?

@Muut
If you're referring to the white dots that fly toward the screen that are mostly visible during slower parts, that's the air debris. You can make them brighter by editing the "Hexagon128_2.png" file in the skin folder. Generally I kept them less intrusive because they can easily be distracting, and I don't have any intention of making them drastically different from how they are now.

I also know that different modes can effect how they appear (eg. in some modes they change size when you hit a block) so it may be worth checking some different modes out.

Is there anyway i can have this skin but with the Dots being more visible? i love the skin but i feel like some of the effects are missed out on with the dots being nearly invisible :(

love it so much it is my favorite skin mod

I really like this skin but the road is transparent and so the background shows through it so it makes it difficult to see my blocks and what's going on during faster moments so it's not useable for me. Can the road be back black?

i said only for those that only play on that version of the game.

@kaight no need for that xd, i have the recent & the old version of the game installed just in case a new/updated skin doesnt work :).

I will attempt to fix this. For the time being, I can send a copy of an earlier version of the skin.

For those (like me) playing on the branch "beforevideosurf", the skin will not work.

Thanks TwistedDragon for the kind words. It means a lot how much you enjoy it.

This truly, in my opinion, is the best skin ever made for Audiosurf 2. I will refuse to play any other skin now. It's simple in the best way possible. Thanks Kaight for making this track.

In the skin's Lua file you need to change "track_colors_index" in the line
track_colors = track_colors_choices[track_colors_index]
to a number corresponding to the array of color palettes.

So I believe track_colors = track_colors_choices[1] would generate the Waltz palette, for example.

Unfortunately I don't believe there is a simple way to change the color palette while in game, sorry. I hope this helps!

how can I select a certain RNG seed to play ？

this skin is sick

Is there a way that you can remake rainbowdrive temporary?

Ah, yeah I set a timer to take screenshots every ten seconds during the recording. It was built into the software.

But how did you take them at the exact same spot? Did you set a timer, or did you just spam the button around the right spot?

@Nixel, I played the same song 5 times but changed the color palette I was using each time.

How did you take multiple screenshots in the exact same spot?

This is the most gorgeus skin I have ever tried in Audiosurf 2!

One already exists. It's labeled The Hyperdrive Series.
Granted, I haven't kept it updated so it doesn't have this year's changes.

I absolutely love this skin! Out of curiousity, do you have any plans to create a version of this that implements using the album cover colors for those who want that?

> Doesnt conform to general aesthetic of Rainbowdrive, for one
> The hitbox feels very off
> Dots are unappealing
> Not visible in the distance
At least make it change colours like everything else.

But can you tell me why you hate it so much? I personally prefer it to the old form quite a bit. Saying it's large isn't incorrect, however, it's clear and you can see through it and it still isn't much larger than everything else. I would consider the old one much more confusing because it was hovering quite a bit above the track and had a mirror of itself below the track.

It is not the debris. It's part of the ball. It IS the ball.

Ah. What you're seeing is the debris. I think I made it slightly stronger to compesate for making it harder to see. If you're on Medium or Low settings, the effects of those are probably larger than for other people. The actual size of the powerup is only slightly larger than the other blocks (around the same size as the one before).

Mind taking a screenshot of the powerups since what you're describing is not their intended look. The regular color blocks are likely correct since it was a temporary fix to a bug that caused the color blocks to appear brighter than they should have and it looked outright disgusting.

This is broken for me. Used to work really well then stopped working for no reason. The multiplier thingies are just HUGE spheres covered in white dots, and all other blocks are covered in a gross outline instead of the usual white outline. Tried reinstalling the entire game. Did nothing.

My favorite skin for audiosurf 2 !

amazing!

Nevermind, I fixed it by replacing your blocks by the updated blocks from the classic skin. I didn't modify the power blocks though. :D

Thanks for the answer :)

Oh well.

@Chooxy73
It appears to be a Mac problem. I downloaded the live file just in case and didn't have the same problem. This also means I don't really have any way to correct the problem except through luck. so I appologize. I hope it is fixed in some way soon.

Here's the link to the screenshot

That skin is really nice, but I've got a little problem with it.
The background is fine, and so are the spikes, but the blocks are pink ! How can I fix it , and could you please fix it if it's a glitch ? Thanks.

P.S. : I'm using a Mac, but don't judge me cause I don't have a Windows computer (don't want to use the term PC) :)

Holy shit ... the headache. :D

Nice skin! ^^

thank you

Note that it won't be the same as what is in the workshop since I work on these in my own time.

Can't you just click the Subscribe button?

like you could put another link in the description to install then in steam workshop

@Wilson.MLG What are you asking me to do?

can you put it as a link to

the best of the drives

my god... the colors, they're so beautiful...

sir, you have gained an instant subscription to this mod.

Hi I'm superfan of your amazing rainbowdrive skin. But in this REWORKED version, I think the climax color is changed from red-black to skyblue. I'm so sad about the change. Stronger blur effect is good but EXTREMELY INTENSE experience with RED-BLACK climax is gone...

so I'm using your TEMPORARY version of rainbowdrive. 'Contact - DAFT PUNK' may show you what is different between TEMPORARY Ver. and REWORKED Ver. Especially in the climax of the song. Peak of the song with TEMPORARY ver. is really really F* AWESOME.

I like your rainbowdrive REWORKED skin. but with red-black climax color, I would love your skin.

I have a screenshot now to back up my complaing below.

Look how messy it is.

This is another skin that uses the same perpindicular lines as Rainbowdrive.

They're just left of the score board. Look how smooth it all is.
