Hi ruckage!

Thanks for your theme it is wonderful.

Is it possible to add background music to the main menu?

Are you going to update this theme?

Quick question: Loving the theme, nothing but amazing work. I'm using the NES mini theme, trying to get the SNES logo to the USA type. I found the folder that has the proper files in it, thought I'd be able to edit a config file to make it US type.

Is there something I'm missing to use the purple colored SNES logo vs the JP/EUR one?

Just re-name the image files in the folder, currently there is no option to change it from the config file.

There are no built in was to add music but the are ways it can be done, see here: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/347/background-music-continued-from-help-support/44

I will update the theme but I've just been busy, I have a few other themes I also work on as well as my own projects and recently have had no time with Christmas coming up.

@matchaman Hey there, I'm trying to do the same thing (rename SNES) and it's not letting me change anything. I'm getting permission denied and all that. I'm trying to find how to fix it all, but I'm losing the thread. Is it easier than I am making it out to be?

You probably don't have permissions, you need to modify files as root.

Here are some basic instructions:

@malixx could you remake your splashscreen with a louder sound? It is awesome as it is but it sounds a little muted on my pi compared to the UI sounds and I want uniformity

darklordzach

@ruckage Hey could you add wii, gamecube, wii u and 3ds please?

Hyruleslink

@darklordzach Hmm. I am genuinely curious why people ask for these systems that aren't playable on a Pi...

AnalogHero

@hyruleslink There may be support for these systems under the win version of ES.

These systems are not a priority as they are not supported by retropie.

...on the pi ;)

Necro

@altieres-lima What font/templates are you using for those? Would like to throw together a few for systems (SuperGraphx, Scumm, TGCD) that are on the to do list as a temporary fix.

Altieres Lima

@necro, I found on Google pixel videogames.

From my setup, the only ones missing are:

Supergrafx
TG16 CD
Sega Mark III
Capcom Play System
Megadrive Japan

I'll be very happy to see it completed as I suck at pixel art :)

ok

I'm pretty surprised the NES Mini theme has an Amiga theme ready, but the Famicom Mini doesn't. (If I'm finding the right info, says Ruckage made both.) I'll be super happy when these are all said and done, this theme is wonderful. Is there anything we can possibly do to help you out with the theme?

A Former User

@hi_im_daft Famicom Mini theme hasn't been updated in some time so you'll probably see a lot of things missing.

The only thing that people can do to help with this theme is to have patience. @ruckage has stated, ad nauseum, that he wants to complete this theme on his own.

MrDowntempo

I'm anxiously awaiting support for ScummVm, but would also like to request support for Frotz, the Z-machine interpreter. Something as simple as an Amber colored version of the DosBox graphics would more than suffice.

Can someone also point me in the right direction to getting the American style SNES graphics in place of the European ones? I've managed to figure out how to do so with the TurboGrafx, and the Genesis, but I'm at a loss with the SNES. I saw earlier in this thread that it has to be done by manually copying/renaming images, but I'm not sure where those images go.

@ruckage , thanks for the excellent work you've been doing. We're all thankful for this masterpiece of a theme!

@hi_im_daft

As @LiveFastCyYoung said I haven't updated either of these themes for a while but the famicom theme in particular is a bit behind, part of the reason for this is I want to completely re-work the that theme as due to some ES improvements it could be made in a much more streamlined way so that will be my next step (I have a famicom that @FlyingTomahawk kindly sent me so I will definitely be going back to the Famicom theme fairly soon.)

To anyone following this thread I'm sorry for the lack of updates, it's for entirely selfish reasons as I've been busy working on my PC engine mod so that's been keeping me busy. I will however continue working on these themes in the future - I haven't abandoned them.
