      @chicuelo A link to v1.0 of Attract-Mode port, showcases all the structure. I am using platforms menu because calling text (like 8-bit console system) is much easier this way.

        Hi @pootis-spencer, I'm still working on the theme to neaten up the code, make detailed view look better (as I mainly use video view) add more systems and generally make improvements to layout and performance.

        Guys I think you could create a new topic with this variation so we dont mix all the responses

        Ok! Sorry. But I only want to know if it's available this variation, I can't find anything about it.

          Sorry! I must missed this. How will this affect the theme? it will be a users choice like the indicator feature?
          I read the code but im not sure I understand all.

            Looking really good! I have updated some assets if you want to replace, the main background has now some texture, also some controllers are more accurate now and I added some systems. Also Im working on new systems so if you want to add all the art you could get it from the repo. Soon I will add Sg1000 , wii, wii-u, Ps2, msx, msx2, Neo Geo pocket, Neo Geo pocket color and Nintendo DS.

            For the game list view, I think you could align the logo a little bit to the right to match with the snap, and maybe make the description text shorter (4 or 5 lines instead of 7).

            Great work!

                  I read the code but im not sure I understand all.

                  Yes, user can edit the theme.xml manually to enable those options. I believe my current version has the options on the top of the file and the code to include the extra files at the bottom. Settings something different will basically just overwrite the default code. That would be the easiest method. Otherwise I could keep the original theme.xml but move it to the assets folder and create a new theme.xml which will only contain the settings code and the include functions.

                        @EctoOne I think creating a new xml would be great, so the ones who want that settings don't have to mess around with coding and all they have to do is renaming the xml

                                @movisman I added "Wiiu" and "msx2" logos and xml, both of them where missing. Al the others are available.
                                Not sure if the systems name are correct or they are most like "wii-u" or "msx-2"

                                    Of course - I forgot about the other systems already being available! It was me who put the XML together about 10 months for loads of the systems, haha! Thanks! I will see if I can work out the correct names for the folders.

                                        @movisman What do you think for sega 32x, instead of chaotic using doom guy?
                                        It will be similar to ports but I think its more representative of the 32x console

                                          Hey, love all the images you create.

                                          I am not too convinced about replacing Knuckles on the Sega 32x image with Doom Guy, mainly because I don't believe the port of Doom on the Sega 32x was actually that good compared to some of the other ports? From what I read there was a lot missing / left out. I wouldn't associate Doom with the 32x if I was to think of the game.

                                          I kind of like having Knuckles as the Sega 32x image. Mainly because Knuckles is a variation / add-on of the Sonic game, much like the Sega 32x is to the Genesis/Megadrive! If that makes sense :)

                                          Also because as you mention, it will also be similar to ports.

                                          It's up to you of course, as it's your theme - but in my opinion i'd probably keep Knuckles for Sega 32x?

                                            @movisman You are right, the 32x was a transition console and had a few games, I think it will be better with chaotix.
                                            Now, I have to decide between the doom guy or the cacodemon as the ports character. What would you choose?
                                            The doom guy is the main character of the game, but as this game is a first person one, the cacodemon is more recognizable. I like both...
