Chicuelo Theme

sastremarti

Hey @pittstone: thank you so much! They look [really] great!

@sastremarti I have all the logos working, but have no time to make the remaining systems.
I will work on then soon!

The best theme, one question : in the selection of games, they are without the videos, how to make them work?

chicuelo

@lokize Thank you! The theme supports video, so if you have scraped videos you will see them. If you have both image snapshot and video you will see first the image some seconds and then the video preview

@lokize Make sure you configure your View settings to Video in the Emulationstation configuration menu.

Hi @chicuelo,

I really like your theme, is fast and clean.
I have a question, do you have in mind to create a theme for commodore 128?

Thank you

chicuelo

@madhorse
Yes, I am planing to complete the higher amount of systems when I have some time, but there are so many consoles that it takes a lot of time.

Lovely theme @chicuelo! Would like to have a 4:3 version of this to put on the new Picade, any plans for it?

chicuelo

@svera
Maybe in a near future!

MadHorse

@chicuelo thank you.

Please, how to config sound to systems in selection screen, for example: when i select snes play a super mario sound...

EctoOne

@lokize
That's not possible. As far as I know, the only sounds we can implement in a theme, are a scrolling sound for the text gamelist and one for launching roms.

chicuelo

@ectoone
I think recallbox does that. Once I saw a pi with a distrurbing music on every theme.

EctoOne

@chicuelo yeah i know that recalbox has a build in background music player, but i don't think that was he was asking for. If i'm wrong there should be at least one script around that can be installed on retropie.

chicuelo

@ectoone
I understand. You mean when you change through systems or games. I tried once but no succeed with that. All the files where there and with correct paths but it didn't worked

lokize

bgm sound is a good resource i think team of retropie look for that post!

EctoOne

@chicuelo there was a post recently on github and the windows build thread that was about the sound system. I believe the original developer of ES was working on that before he abandoned the project. The launch sound seems to be the only thing that got implemented in a new way (scrolling sound in gamelists is different). Some themes have the code for all options (i believe the snes mini has them for example) but they just won't work. When I was helping someone with a theme a few weeks ago, I couldn't even get the launch sound to work, but maybe that was just a windows build error or something else.

Hi! @chicuelo I love your theme but I have Recalbox on my Raspi... Could you adapt your theme to it?? I think is not difficult for you; I don't know how to do it :(
Thanks!

chicuelo

@Sheyk90
Sorry I don't use recall box so I don't know either how to adapt the theme. Maybe you can switch to retropie! :)

Hi Chicuelo,

An amazing theme - just what i was looking for, you have put together a clean and professional looking theme. One question - is it possible to have video previews on the main menu for each system? Similar to how it works the games - box art first and then the video preview?

Thanks, Raj
