First Strike XFire Skin Beta
Here is a FirstStrike XFire skin I created a while back and finished today in some spare time.
Please try it out if you'd like and let me know if you find any problems with it. As far as I know, though, it should be fully functional.
If you are on XP, you will need to place the zip file you download within C:/Program Files/XFire/Skins/ (if you installed to default path).
If you are on Vista, you will need to place the zip file you download within C:/Program Data/Xfire/Skins/
Download Here
Also, please do not give up the cause here: XFire Support for FS

A message from FS Dev Team
Greetings Troopers, we the Devs at FS wanted to say that we are aware of all the new problems in FS due to the 1.5 patch from EA. These same issues are happening in Vanilla and it appears that alot of issues like the End Of Round crashes have gone away almost entirely as EA has improved their master server. We know its frustrating but hang in there and still try to give it a chance as a few things have improved already. Stay tuned for another update in the next week or so on our next "little" toy for you to play with.
