[New theme] playstation

@dirty_horror I may one day work on it again, if I can remember how to code a theme. Lol. It’s been a while. but I’ve never really been a fan of metadata. Artwork is all I’ve ever used. Now’s the time for you to learn like I did. It was actually quite fun to learn myself and see come into a full fledged theme. It wasn’t that hard to learn. Good luck

@lostless thanks man!

@soulgriever here's the raw data and psd files. Have fun looking at them and making this theme your own.

To the author: are you aware Sony could be very inspired from your theme for PlayStation Classic? Gui resemblance is more than suspicious.

lostless

@DarishZone I doubt it. Nothing looks like any of my artwork. And I was inspired by sonys ps1 menu. they are using the original font, where on mine I got a close enough one. Also It’s not that hard to make a gradient background. I stole the colors from the official background of the original to make mine.

Uhm, that's my fault, i was not aware of original purple bubbles gui, i remember my old PSX feature the grid (horrible) menu system, not sure if that was for pal territory, or they just simply redesign it later.

@DarishZone the grey with the grid was the redesign for the smaller ps one.

As i said, my launch PlayStation, the fat model, had a grey grid ui, just like below
(I can't forget it, it was was too much horrible)

I know they revised it for PS One, while the purple bubbles i don't know frankly from what version is coming from.

lostless

@DarishZone maybe their was a difference between the ntsc and pal versions of the menu. I had 2 fatty ps1 models in the US, and both had the menu I made with the balls and all. Interesting.

DarishZone

Could make sense, thanks

@edmaul69 can you share theme.xml for CRT for plasystation theme?

MarzipantZ

Is there a way to change the button icons to the ones used for the PS1?

lostless

@marzipantz button icons? If your talking about the ones on the bottom, they are built into emulation station. No way to change them in the theme

Hi lostless,
First I have to say, Love the work you have done on this theme.
Have you made any updates since this last post? Love the theme, but its missing the video play back for the game list, and missing the following consoles artwork.

• Light gun Games
• Colecovision
• Sega Dreamcast
• FinalBurn Neo
• Lynx

@lostless Could you make "Atomiswave, Dreamcast, and LightGuns"?
Love your work. It is an awesome theme. Also, Will you be making it able to play the game video too in your future build? Thank for all your hard work.
