I would like to know how to change my 3DFibs board.

socksey

Well socksey, thanks for your feedback on the site. I've just added a tutorial about changing boards and
personalizing fonts and colors. http://rafaelito.zxq.net/tutorial.html
Take a look, I think you will find it quite easy.

For those who use Javafibs: I've used it too, just for trying how it works, but I feel more comfortable with 3DFibs.
Anyway, I've ported the 3DFIBS Rafaelito Board to Javafibs and look ok, but I need to fine tune the
dice, cubes and other icons position data so they don't look offset. It's a painful task.
Stay tuned I'll be posting it soon.

Cheers!

Rafaelito

I'm having a blonde day. It didn't work for me. First hitch was when I wasn't sure if i wanted the zip or the RAR file. I don't remember which one I chose, and got it into my pic file, but it didn't show up when I went to preferences/board, although I could see it there when I just looked at the pic file.

Any advice now?

Sounds like you didn't extracted the folders, but just dropped the rar or zip file there... ?

If so, you need to extract the folders into the "pics" folder for 3DFibs to find them there. Check it.

How do I do that?

In Windows, right click on the .zip file, choose Extract to... and tell it where to put the extracted files. Or just double click the file and see where the extracted files go - move them if necessary.

Since you're asking about 3DFibs, I assume you're running Windows...

Am I mistaken or what?
It seems like many boards are uploaded without the dice.
Or the zip-files don't have the data.txt file or miss the pictray.

Is there anywhere where I can find complete sets (board, checkers, cubes, data.txt, dice, pictray and wbflat) in one go?

Thanks!
