All Bannister Lake Score Bugs come with a default graphic template for you to use. There are 2 scenes included with the standard or basic score bugs: the score bar and the score summary. The score bar is used during game play while the score summary is typically used for going in and out of commercial breaks or game breaks.
XPression users, can modify or build their own graphic templates by following the naming convention below. Simply ensure while designing your graphics and animations that they are named exactly as below and the BL Score Bug application will fill in the correct information into the template. Note that you don't need to use all these objects. BL Score Bugs will simply ignore items/objects not found in the scene.
