Cardboard Mini NES + Nes mini and Famicom mini themes

I'm a little confused as to what's being asked here, what do you mean by 'parralax scrolling of the game'?

If you mean having a carousel for the gamelist (like the system view) then no, that's not possible with EmulationStation currently.

If you mean having the secondary scroll bar with the small icons showing all systems then again that's also not possible with ES.

If I've misunderstood and you mean something entirely different then let me know.

It was the first one you mentioned that @Mydriaze wanted.

[Mydriaze]

@ruckage Yes, it was an horizontal scrolling of the game. :) Thanks for your answer by the way, and thanks for your work.

Any way we could have support for Kodi as a system on the main menu instead of inside ports? I followed this guide to get mine running but in your themes I get a black screen since it doesn't support Kodi.

@sarai
Kodi is on the to do list (see first post in this thread).

I'm looking forward to a new update, maybe with Scummvm and nes/snes mini. Thank you for the great work.

Question.
I have downloaded Portable EmulationStation for Windows and the NES Mini Theme doesn't work. Is there some alterations I have to do for the source code to get it to show up for the windows version?
Any help would be great.
Thanks

@mrwasi I run mine with portable es on windows and snes mini and nes mini and Famicom mini all work great

[mrwasi]

@greekmanx The images don't show up for me when I change themes. Was there anything you had to do?

[greekmanx]

@mrwasi no nothing special just put in theme folder

@mrwasi
You have to use the latest version of ES, where are you downloading the portable version of ES from?

@jdrassa has a repository with a version of ES that is always up to date: https://github.com/jrassa/EmulationStation/releases/tag/continuous

@ruckage said in Cardboard Mini NES + Nes mini and Famicom mini themes:

AWESOME!
Yes all I needed was an updated version of ES. Thanks so much!

Now I just need to figure how to add music to ES for Windows.
All the vids I watch are for Retropie :(

@ruckage, any chance of an 800 x 480 layout? I know no one ever in the world uses that resolution, but i have an eeePC which uses it and it would be really awesome to be able to use the theme there :)

@ruckage PAL support too. 720x576

I made this Splashscreen Video based on the Loading Screen made by @ruckage and the original NES Intro Startup if somebody is interested:

[darknior]

@malixx Thanks a lot :)

[sergioad]

@malixx WOW, just what I allways wanted (seriously), it only needs that bleep when loading the disk and I will use it as my boot screen with not doubt

[Malixx]

@sergioad Thanks! Well I could make a version with that bleep if you find it (actually I don't know what you are talking about :p)

[ruckage]

Hi everyone, just thought I should make a post so you didn't all think I'd deserted you. Sorry for the lack of updates lately, I've been quite busy but I am reading your posts and appreciate all your feedback. Normal service will resume soon :)

@Malixx Cool splash-video I really like it.

For anyone interested I actually made a couple of splash-videos myself, they're actually included with the Snes-mini theme but suit this theme as well. You can get the from the snes-mini github if you like them. Gif previews and download links are below.
