Retrorama Comic Theme

[AlphaUMi]

@lipebello Thank you so much for the wonderful theme! Any chance in the future you will add the Euro-version of the SNES? Would be even awesomer :)

[lipebello]

@alphaumi Thanks! Snes pal is already there. the name is "snespal", you can change it on the <theme>snes</theme> tag on es_systems.cfg

@lipebello is it possilbe to make it show the box art than fade to video snap?

[sergioad]

@lipebello Nice updated, love the sounds

[cyperghost]

@lipebello Really nice theme ;)

[Hex]

@lipebello Will you be making a theme specifically for small screens like 3.5 inch and below?

[lipebello]

@hex i made some sketches to a small screen theme. already found out that the resolution is 320x240. i'm thinking in make it with a few systems so people can test it to see if it looks good, then keep doing it

[Hex]

@lipebello The resolution is 320x240 if and only if using DPI/HDMI.

If using Composite (majority of the screens are) the resolution is (720x576) PAL or (720x480) NTSC. Please take a note of this.

Many themes dont work as expected if they are made for 320x240 and user is using composite. This is because Pi outputs either PAL or NTSC resolution only (for composite) and the display IC scales it to screen size (320x240, 480x272)

Here is a small program I wrote that gives you exactly the resolution Pi is outputting

@Hex , i don't have a small screen to test it, so, if i make a theme in 720x480, it will work ?

[Hex]

if you make it for 720x480 720x576 and 320x240 then it covers all variations

Awesome theme! Thank you.
The only systems I miss are:
-ResidualVM
-Macintosh (old black/white system)

[AlphaUMi]

@lipebello Thanks again! It worked and it's just perfect!! I've also installed your mp4-splashscreen, really like it

[zeroclash]

I installed kodi but it shows in the Add Ons section, how do I get it to it's own page?

[Sun Bro]

@zeroclash I have the same question

[Aengeon]

@zeroclash If you're talking about Kodi showing up as its own system like Nintendo, PlayStation, etc. You'll have to go into the command line and do some work.

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/KODI

On that page you'll find some information on what to do and how to do it. Scroll down the page a bit.
Hope this helps.

@aengeon thanks!

Well I especially like this theme, its classic look and green/purple color such ease to the eyes.

[Hex]

@lipebello let me know if you need your themes tested on said resolutions. I have all types of screens SPI, DPI and composite(NTSC/PAL)

[lipebello]

i'll make a beta version on these 3 resolutions and send to you, so you can test them

[Hex]

@lipebello Sent you a mail. you can mail me the beta version if you want.
