@lipebello Phil! I just noticed something and now have the tiniest nit-pick to make with your theme. For the Metal Slug tank for the Neo Geo system you have two exhausts emitting smoke. Only one is an exhaust though. The one closest to Tarma is actually an antenna.

I only say so because I recently built a small scale Metal Slug tank and that particular part is called an all-terrain antenna. Just a small detailed I noticed for your drawing. Not trying to be critical! Just thought you might wanna know. Really love your work :)

@cyperghost, @meleu , @asmithau Thanks dudes! i'm really happy that you guys are enjoying this.

@HurricaneFan , yeah, i've always wanted to have one, since i discovered about the landfill watching AVGN.

@MrJordaaany , didn't know that. thanks for the tip. Gonna fix it.

the latest version of this theme seems to be broken, it might be just me but both on my pi 3 and on emulation station on my pc nothing is showing but blank white bg with plain black text for system names. really love the way there is no white system name bar and the system select bg and menu bg have seperate images. was using the older retrorama release to make my own personal menu for a 320x240 screen handheld but at some point after i did so much work it now is showing the white system line and i cant figure out how to get rid of it :(

[lipebello]

@petejaquay Try to change the theme, uninstall, reboot and install again. On version 1.75 i changed all images from png to jpg to save space and make it smoother.

@lipebello i have the same Problem with emulation station. Nothing is showing but blank white bg with plain black texts. Is there the Version 1.7 with .png pictures to Download?

[lipebello]

@pittstone https://github.com/lipebello/es-theme-Retrorama/tree/1.7
try to download it and put in configs/all/emulationstation/themes to see if it works.

[PittStone]

@lipebello Thank you, Version 1.7 works fine.

[lipebello]

Hello, i've messed around with @screech amazing Universal XML Scraper. Loving it!
I've made 2 themes to scrap images to retrorama theme, if anyone wants to use it, here are the links:

This is the console version, that adds 3D boxes and logos and have overlays to match the old looks of retrorama.

This is the Arcade version (i use it with marquee download enabled to add the marquee on the description box)

Hi, great Theme!!!
There will be a theme for Daphne? please...:-)

[sergioad]

I love it, if anybody can add a commented line toenable sounds and add an arcade like scrolling sound this may be my default theme

If you did not knew I am a huge fan of the pixel art and hand drawn graphics, so if a theme using any of those techniaues is made I will jump over it and install it right away, this is why the pixel, famicom mini, the upcoming SNES mini and now this theme are my favorite themes, great job to @lipebello for such amazing work, for now on I will be proudly rocking retrorama by default

[lipebello]

@sergioad - Thanks a lot! i'm a huge pixel art fan too
@bioba - Thanks! sure, i'll be adding Daphne in the next updates.

[MrJordaaany]

@lipebello Hey Phil. Would I be able to get a stand alone picture of the awesome metal slug tank you used? I would love to use it on my fight stick and arcade im building!

Hi @lipebello,

Very nice Mix ^^

Do you mind I add them to the Mix Repository ?
So everyone can download it and use it directly from UXS ?

[lipebello]

@screech that would be awesome! thank you!

[screech]

It's done ;) now you can directly download and install these 2 mix from UXS ;)

Simply go to Configuration / MIX / Download new Mix ;)

(For information, I just "remake" the Full_Exemple ;) )
