      Yes, I hid the tty logs, there are several tutorials explaining what to change to make the boot as silent as possible.

      To hide the EmulationStation splash screen you have 2 options:

      • Option 1) Make a splash video thats long enough so that ES has already loaded by the time the video ends.

      • Option 2) add the argument --no-splash to autostart.sh. The line should read: emulationstation --no-splash #auto (this is the method I used).

      Hi ruckage
      Can you provide a bit more info regarding that autostart file?
      I tried to implement emulationstation --no-splash #auto but no luck thus far the loading screen still shows.
      Where exactly inside the autostart file do I add that piece of code?

        Hi,

        There should only be a single line in your autostart.sh

        emulationstation --no-splash #auto
        

        I've just double checked on my test machine and it worked. Could you post a copy of your autostart.sh so I can see it?

          @flyingtomahawk you can also disable the splashscreen by adding the following line to es_settings.cfg.

          <bool name="SplashScreen" value="false" />

            I didn't know about that, that's probably a better way to do it.

              This theme you made is one of my new favorite ones. Keep up the good work.

                That works for the first time but somehow the settings file gets overwritten and that piece of code disappears again.
                That setting file is inside

                opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation/ 
                

                Is that path correct?

                  Hi,

                  That's the wrong autostart.sh. The one you want is located at: /opt/retropie/configs/all/autostart.sh

                  You can also access it from Windows through the samba share, just go to: /configs/all/autostart.sh

                  It should literally be a single line as I posted above.

                    I've made some icons/logos for the classic collections. I'm working on the backgrounds now.

                            @ruckage Do you have any ETA for the Amiga icon ? That's the only one I'm missing :(
                            It's just cosmetic on the carroussel, no big deal of course, but I hope it will come soon :)

                                Patience, these take time. It's not just an Icon that needs to be made but logos and several backgounds as well so it takes time.
                                Both are on the to do list, I already posted that Amiga will be in the next update (along with a few others) and Supergrafx will probably in the update after that.

                                    how did you recreate them? Is there a PSD file with layers to share?

                                    Opened up the images in Photoshop then did some meticulous cutting/pasting/layering.

                                        @ruckage great to see that the nes/snes classic collections are being incorporated into this theme. I was hoping something like this would be available. Looking forward to the updates to the theme being released. Keep up the excellent work!

                                        For the moment I just bodged them in (badly).

                                          Hello I love this theme as much as the one of the mini nes. I see you're polishing it to the max .. I would like to know when you are going to add the capcom play system icons 1 2 and 3. Right now I have the complete romset of these systems that I use with your mini nes and mini snes themes .. are the only systems without icon .. are the three folders of capcom .. I think they are important systems to take into account especially in arcade .. I would love to see it sooner rather than later. I just wrote to encourage you!

                                          Finally I would like to know if you are going to add the possibility to visualize the wheels next to boxart and videos. I have a very good collection of wheels and it is a shame not to be able to see them next to the video ..

                                          Anyway thank you very much for your tireless work, I will follow your progress closely!
                                          Anything you can write to me
                                          a greeting!

                                            Curious, why use CPS 1, 2 and 3 separated? Wouldn't a generic CPS theme be a better solution? I also have most of the CPS games but to separate them made no sense to me since there are too few per CPS system.

                                            @ruckage I know your plate is more then full at the moment so whenever time allows I'd love to see a generic CPS for nes-mini, famicom-mini and snes-mini
