Wow! Nice job.
Can I mod for the Xbox layout controler?

Yes, the controls at the botom are just based on the Genesis 6 button to fit the theme.

Awesome improvements to version 2.0. Do you know when you'll push out these new supported systems to GitHub?

[Arcanthur]

@HurricaneFan as soon as I can finish creating all the assets for all the systems. I'm averaging about 1 a day, and I've got 2-3 more consoles to go, then I'm going to add support for more handhelds. Then at that point I need to do some cleaning up to the XML. Probably looking at a couple weeks. So...Christmas-ish

[HurricaneFan]

@Arcanthur Take your time. Love your work!

Looking good! If retroflag comes out with a Genesis case for the pi 4 I'm definitely going to be using this theme. Do you plan to support most of the systems or just the main ones? No pressure, just curious. :)

[Arcanthur]

@quicksilver I'll support as many as I can, but the more obscure systems will probably be for a later version.

@Arcanthur Whats the best way to scrape the right sized images for this theme?

[Arcanthur]

@HurricaneFan The easiest way is to use Skraper for windows, when choosing 2D box art look at the resize options and type in 270px for height, and keep aspect ratio. If you want to go 1 step further you can save all the pngs as index color in photoshop or use a png compressor like Pngoo. Images will be about 30-45kb each after all that

Finished the arcade section:

@Arcanthur I'm on a mac.

Got another random question for you. Would it be possible for you to have a default system theme style for any systems not themed yet?

[Arcanthur]

@HurricaneFan I can see about integrating something like that, but I've got maybe 4-5 more systems left I want to add before 3.0 releases, so hopefully that'll cover 90% of the major stuff.
