@2Play

That is great.
Welcome back.

@legacy Hello Can i get this theme?

@sdhoigt Donkey Kong II Jumpman Returns is playable in MAME2003+ as i added support for it several years back

@Ninjaman This is not a ROM sharing site - as outlined in the forum rules.

Hello, I love this theme, currently I am missing only Wii and PS2 images. Do you plan to add them in near future? Without it my system is incomplete and I have to use duplicate pictures from PS1 and GC. Thank you, you're the best!

Here's an UPDATED Tutorial on how to add my Bezels to Retroarch
using the the Mega Shader

@retropi19 If the problem is not specific to one Port, I suggest you open a new topic and add some details about your setup, including the info from https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

Here is a full list of all of the synopsis fixes that were made by creating a gamelist.xml for the RetroPie and using the new Reversal script to create [synopsis].txt files usable in Madmab Edition emulators, as well as how many instances were fixed:

PAGE SETUP / FORMATTING:

All Windows based (CR LF) line breaks replaced with Linux based (LF) line breaks: 1,228 (This is a document count. Actual instances of this fix is likely in the 30,000 to 40,000 range)

Added double spaces to lines that should have had them: 38

Corrected established order for "Original Title: " and "Alternate Title: " lines: 29

REMOVED extra blank line in between Description and first URL: 1

Line had a line break in the middle where it shouldn't have been: 2

Two extra lines after Description when there was no URL: 12

Extra spaces at end of lines: 5

Blank line with only a single space in it. The original code kept that line because of the space, as well as adding a Double Space before and after it, leaving 3 blank lines between the end of Description and the beginning of the first URL: 1

Added "Blank Space" under "_____________" that notes the beginning of the Game Description text. (NOTE: This looks much better in the XBox [synopsis].txt format than not having it, but this extra line is removed in the [synopsis].txt to gamelist.xml conversion code because this leading blank space does not look good on the RetroPie.): 1

GRAMMAR:

"Original (T)itle" Capitalized: 10

"Hacked (B)y" Capitalized: 16

"Translated (B)y" Capitalized: 6

UNUSED FIELDS REMOVED:

REMOVED blank "Alternate Title: " line: 56

REMOVED blank "Original Title: " line: 41

BLANK FIELDS THAT SHOULD HAVE HAD INFO (Usually "Unknown" except for Players info):

Missing "Players: ": 5

Missing "Release Year: ": 19

Missing "Hack Release Year: ": 27

Missing "Translated Release Year: ": 1

Missing "Hacked By: ": 1

Missing "Version: ": 2

MISSING TAGS OR INCORRECT TAGS, BUT INFO WAS THERE:

Missing "Players: " Tag, so line and data were lost: 4

Missing ":" in "Version: ", so line and data were lost: 2

"Release Year: " misspelled "Relase Year: ", so line and data were lost: 1

"Release Year: " misspelled "Releaese Year: ", so line and data were lost: 1

"Alternate Title: " mislabeled as "Alternative Title: ", so line and data were lost: 3

"Translated By: " written as "Translated y: ", so line and data were lost: 1

"Publisher: " written as "Publisher:" without space. Somehow code re-wrote this as "Publisher: Publisher: " after the reversal script. (Assumed code would mimic this behavior for any tag missing the space before the info): 1

URL TAG FIXES:

URLS that started with "www." were ignored by all code and just showed up in the Description rather than the <url> or <urlalt> tags: \

(Fixed this so no matter what order the two links are, or combination of "www." "http" or "https" they are they will both print on separate URL tags and in the order they are in the [synopsis].txt)

PROBABLY NOT GOING TO BE "FIXED":

On VERY rare occasion there are more than two links in a synopsis file (For instance, if multiple hacks were applied to a single file). The code currently adds any more than two to the <urlalt> tag with a line break in between them. Most likely will not put in additional tags for the 0.0002% of games that would have this extra link or two.

In the next week I will create a new gamelist.xml file and run the reversal code again and compare the new output. I expect after doing this a second time with some code changes that I made today that the input [synopsis].txt files should be a 100% exact match to the output [synopsis].txt files.

The above fixes should then be applied to any synopsis files for other systems I work on in the future. Also, in the future, rather than do the crazy amount of editing I did by hand that could be handled with code like this, I will be adding more things to the existing code to automate all of that process.

Man... I'm glad I finally started learning how to do this for myself. :)

I don't know. I just followed the two different instructions you had to download the one for the newer and older versions of RetroPie that I've always used since you first started doing this.

Ok, then you just downloaded the binaries.
As they are compiled for arm cpu's (raspberry pi) they will not work in a pc/laptop (they normally have a x86/x64 cpu).

You think this would work on my laptop?

I do not see why not, afaik almost all linux distro's have support to compile software locally.
Maybe you need to install some headers first (i.e. sdl2) but just give it a go.

@Endprodukt
Retrieved my file (SVG vector format); unfortunately the parts outside those needed for the backdrop still need some finalizing. Anyway you can now download it from here.
Don't look at the preview it shows there, the cardboard does is complete.

I dont have a solution, sorry, for me its been the same since june.

sorry for bumping this old thread, but I love this theme.

My only problem is that when a game has a long description, it scrolls for bit but then stops. Almost like there is "field length" limit after which it cuts off..

Is this a known issue or am I doing something wrong?

thanks

This is the last game I want to add onto the Ports section before I map the rest of these games to the joysticks I have (8-Bitdo and the Xbox 360). After that, I'll save this image of everything I got working on here. I'll move onto the Pi5 once that is done. If it doesn't work out, I'll just delete Lord of Destruction and add that once that gets ironed out.

I was able to get the Rise of the Triad working (the wrong scriptmodule was in the RetroPie-Setup section for some reason, so I copied the updated one there), but from what I read a few posts ago, joystick controls don't seem to work. The GL port of Hexen 2 also gave me a small problem, but I found a missing pak3.pak file and it works perfectly now.

Has anyone noticed that Ocarina of Time Master Quest has the slow menu bug that the Vanilla Ocarina of Time used to have on lr-mupen64plus-next? Weirdly though the gliden64.custom.ini and mupen64plus.ini file doesn't have Ocarina of Time specific settings

Quick question, for Yabasanshiro standalone, I set my controller with the UI interface, but I don't know how to set the analog joystick properly (analog ->x,y,L,R) . It doesnt seems to work.

BTW, like PPSSPP, with Yabasanshiro standalone, if you have a touchscreen with your Pi4, the UI is touch sensitive and works well

Hmm... Can anyone post a new list? There was an "google dokument" link with a list of working Dreamcast games in the start of the thread, but i cant open that dokument

Buffer underruns are not fatal to a process.

@MortalWombat - The cores that compile in a "reasonable" time frame (under 2 hours) are mame2000, mame2003, mame2003-plus, mame2010 and FBNeo. mame2003 (plus changes ported over), mame2003-plus and FBNeo seem to be under rolling development. I watch those cores as new games and fixes are being added all the time.
