@itsmejerry When it will land in the RetroPie ES themes repo?

[lilbud]

@sergioad its already there

[sergioad]

Ok, thanks

I just noticed a small error in both variants.

<!-------------LAST PLAYED--------------->		
		<datetime name="md_lbl_lastplayed">
			<pos>1 1</pos>
		</datetime>
		
		<datetime name="md_lastplayed">
			<pos>1 1</pos>
		</datetime>

Should be:

<!-------------LAST PLAYED--------------->		
		<text name="md_lbl_lastplayed">
			<pos>1 1</pos>
		</text>
		
		<datetime name="md_lastplayed">
			<pos>1 1</pos>
		</datetime>

@ectoone Could you submit a pull request to both versions? I'm kind of busy at the moment

[EctoOne]

@lilbud Um, I will try. I just got into that whole github thing a few days ago and it took me an hour to figure out how to even upload files.
I have to fork your themes, change the things in my fork and then send the pull request, right?

Edit: I think i've done it, let me know if it was correct.

Okay, first update in a long while. But I have updated the theme with some new features.

• Made use of variables in the main theme.xml to remove need for individual system folders.
• Cleaned up code
• Updated colors to be more accurate to the actual Nintendo Switch menu.

Update on my end: I got a switch.

[lilbud]

@itsnitro What's your friend code?

The only game I have is Splatoon 2.

[sergioad]

@lilbud could you use the ES default imput help and add sounds to your theme? the new ES has an option to turn off UI sounds so it may help users wich hates sounds to not have them and also may help themers to not hash the scroll sounds line

[lilbud]

@itsnitro I sent a request, but the only game I have now is Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

I'll probably get Splatoon 2 eventually

[A Former User]

Alright, I'm not at my switch as of now but I'll accept it when I can.

@sergioad said in Switch Theme:

ES default imput help

Not exactly sure what you mean by this?

add sounds to your theme

The only sound that works is scrolling and game launching, but i'll add them soon

@lilbud I mean the default text that appears in ES and says A accept, B back Y favorite etc

Thank you very much friend

That default text is part of the background, if a prompt needs to be added, let me know

[lilbud]

@sergioad I added the scroll sound to both variants of the theme. The sounds for going back to the system select as well as a sound to play when a game is launched don't work at all. The scroll sound only works on the gamelist, doesn't work on the carousel.

I think @pjft was looking into the select and back sounds not working at one point, not sure if he ever got those working or not.

@lilbud thanks friend

@lilbud Your theme images in the top post are dead, fyi.
