      It looks great, just missing MS Dos. I'd cobble something together if you have that background image at the right size.

        @sgtjimmyrustles I haven't really added any of the computer systems yet but I will.

          I made a workaround for now with the Amstrad look and shaved off the logo for a MSDos one I found. Looks good though.

          But hopefully your next focus is MS Dos.

                Just tried it out @SuperMagicom and it works great! Love the PC you used.

                  @SuperMagicom How about Daphne? I think more than a few of us have Dragon's Lair or Space Ace up and running. . .

                  Great theme! I can't wait to try it out.

                    @caver01 Added Daphne. Should work the same as arcade so if you have marquee images in your gamelist.xml they will display on the cab.

                      Good Morning! here is WSOD, is it because of the configuration of the scrap image I'm using?

                        @ande-rocha Make sure the VRAM is set to 80 in the EmulationStation settings.

                          the setting is correct, set to 80 :(

                          Great work! I really want to test here!

                            Fyi, small bug noticed. If you do the whole "Change name of system" for the TG16 and Genesis, the genesis one will not work. You have to manually make a folder for genesis.

                              How can I change to that theme in ES? I copied the .zip into the direction but how can I tell ES to install and use it?
                              Thanks in advance!

                              Appreciate your work, thank you :)

                                @sargy The installation instructions are in the 1st post message. Unpack the .zip file in the /opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation/themes folder. If you're using file shares from Windows, then use Windows explorer to open \\retropie\configs\alls\emulationstation\themesand put the nostalgic folder (extracted from the .zip) there.

                                  Hello, I did the following steps:

                                  1. I formatted the card and installed Retropie
                                  2. I downloaded the theme, created the folder and extracted it to: / opt / retropie / configs / all / emulationstation / themes
                                  3. I changed the Carbon theme to Nostalgia but it did not work ... stay that white band ...

                                  Note: VRam is set to 80 (default)

                                    @ande-rocha What version of EmulationStation are you on? Press START and it will show the version on the bottom of the menu that pops up.

                                      Quick question - VRAM should be set AT 80 or a MINIMUM of 80? I keep mine at 140 usually.

                                      Growing older is mandatory. Growing up is optional!
                                      Enjoy the ride!

                                        @classicgmr You can try it but I've found that the WSOD fix only works properly if the VRAM is set at 80.

                                            @ande-rocha What error is reported in the ES log file at /home/pi/.emulationstation/es_log.txt when you switch the theme ?
