I can't figure out how to install a custom skin I downloaded. I got the file from the site but it isn't even the same extension. The files I downloaded are usf instead of uxf.

I'm having problems adding a skin that has the .usf file extension. It's one made by Drerex, but it was for a previous version of Precision X, so I imagine that it might not be compatible anyway. Well, if anyone has some insight to this problem, help would be appreciated.

Hi, help me change the color of the indicator boost clock -
Windows\WND_MAIN\Indicators\IND_CORE_CLOCK\Boost.
I change the color, apply changes and then save as my skin file.
When i close the window and check the skin in the window
EVGA Precision X 16, i always get boost clock only black color.
In General, when apply of any changes on this tab,
the indicators changes according to the next color scheme:
the Boost is black, Base as was Boost, Select as was Base,
Background as was Select. What am I doing wrong?

You have to import the skin first in the tool,  then make changes to the file you want, then export it and save. Make sure to close the file in whatever tool you are using to edit it in before exporting. Like if you are using photoshop to change the color of something save the file and close it, do not keep it open in photoshop. You can get an error and it will make a .tmp file and another folder with same name and name original folder with a 0 at end of name for example: "default0". Hope this helps.

Can anyone help me with putting this skin I made somewhere where it can be downloaded. I have attached an image of the skin so if anyone is interested or if you would just like to comment about it I would appreciate all replies. thank you.

Again, in order:
1. Change the name of the skin.
2. To export the configuration into a new skin file under the new name.
3. To close the Skin TOOL. Now preserved under the internal name of the skin (for Precision) and the actual name of the file.
4. To put a new skin file in the skins folder of Precision.
Guys, new skin came flowing in the settings menu, do not forget to restart Precision

These are the only instructions available for the tool. Here is my take:
 
When you import a skin, UxfTool creates a subdirectory (folder) with that skins name. This is VERY IMPORTANT to know.
 
Steps:
1. import defaultX.uxf or any uxf file you want to use as the source
2. In the UFX Tool, go into [info] then type a short descriptive [Name] like "My cool skin". NOTE: This is very important, because this is how you get the skin to show up in PrecisionX's menu.
3. click [apply]
4. now [export] and give the new file a name like bada$$.uxf
5. Important: Now Import the file you just exported eg. bada$$.uxf
6. observe that there is now a subdirectory (folder) with the same name as your file.
 
It would seem to make sense that you would now quit the skin tool so you can go edit the bitmaps in your new subdirectory(folder). The problem with that is, how do you load the skin now without overwriting the files in that folder as soon as you import it? As I see it, when you import a uxf file, it extracts the contents into the directory overwriting your files.
 
Please help...
 
 

shadow, there is no password on the ClassifiedX.uxf file. The file I have is dated 9/25/2015, 3828KB. If you want, I can email my copy of that file to you. Just PM me with your email address.
 
Tip, make sure there isn't a ClassifiedX.tmp file or folder before import. Delete or rename them.

this is stupidly hard to do. make it simpler for those of us are are mentally challenged at this. i have a 750 ti sc and looking for some new skins. i dont understand all this save and rename bs. seems like such a over waste of time , just simplify it.
 

 
Does the skin tool work for Precision X / Precision X OC? Anyone have a base for Precision X / Precision X OC (since max clock is different)?
 
 
 

What is the name of the exe? I cannot find anything skin related :P
 
Edit:I was blind, it was right there in Skins directory :P

Password does not seem to work with me. Has it changed in newest release or something?

How do I get a skin on my tool!!!! why do we need passwords why can't it be just like precision x

I will like to have a introductory tutorial for the use of the evga skin tool.

Same here.  Maybe I'm missing something, but this seems to be an extremely difficult project, to find a pre-made skin, or how to use the tool itself. Does EVGA not provide custom skins based on my model? (1060 SC 6 GB)  It would be really nice to see that model number next to the Precision X OC label.  It's certainly not a huge deal, I just have the feeling that I should easily be able to find a database of different EVGA models, and corresponding skins.  Little help?

Updated first post with PXOC info.

 
How can I hide STATIC_MON_CORE_VOLTAGE from appearing on the OC scanner? (6.1.2)

hi there, i've seen  a really cool fallout4 skin but it seems to only works with precision x16?, any info on that? and at the same time any link for precision xoc skins?
 
thks ;) 

Not a single working XOC skin exists, every time XOC updates the Ui all skins have to be rebuilt. I fixed mine for the ICX update then it broke again with the triple fans update.
