AB v3.0 Skin Support?

[dmertz]

Greetings all!

I did a search of the forums and the site for information on downloading skins for AB3 or creating skins and found nothing.

Looking at the ArmyBuilderEX\product directory and subdirectories gives me a good idea of what is going to be required, but in terms of doing it "properly" and saving quite a bit of time, I figured I would ask around first before I start tearing apart and experimenting with my AB3 install

Does anyone have any information or tutorials on how to create skins for AB3?

Thanks!

This topic is covered in detail within the Authoring Kit. The Authoring Kit
tools were complete with V3.0, but the documentation still needed a lot of
work, so the Kit was not publicly released. The docs are reasonable, but
lacking lots of useful examples. The docs are the same docs used by the
data file authors that participated in our Beta, so it's a question of
whether you want the docs "finished" or not before you dive into them. If
you don't mind the docs being Beta still, you can grab the Kit at the URL
below:
http://www.armybuilder.com/download/abkit30b.exe

A massive overhaul of the documentation has just been completed and is
entering review by the Beta team. This new documentation will be included
with the V3.1 release of AB. The Kit will be made publicly available at
that time, but you can use the Kit above in the interim.
