[Theme] SegaCD Mini (Updated to Version 2.0)

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

@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.

Hello. I am not against the fact that in this theme you use some of my layouts from my blast16 mod, but for the sake of decency, please, add this information to the header of the thread.
I’m talking about some images and a font that I built myself from several fonts (to support several languages).
Good work, don't stop.

Below is an addon pack to help get you started, but your roms will need to have the same names as mine. Included is box arts, screenshots, videos, gamelist.xmls, and a custom es_systems.cfg.

Download these here:

@ All

Hi!

I have 2 questions:

I have downloaded your addon pack.

But you have so many games (like me) that it will take to long, to rename all of them that they match with yours.

Is it possible that you upload your roms?

Can i pm to you?

2.I have installed your theme, but it looks like someting is missing, like the background or the system heading text.

Please take a look at my screenshot. This is from my Game Gear Section:

Thanks.

Best regards!

See forum rules, do not ask for ROMs.

@Arcanthur I will use this theme in Grid view for the Sega Mini Classic. It Crashes ES. I changed all Boxarts to 242x380 and compressed it with 2pngoo" to a smaller filesize (80kb > 22kb) but still not worked. Some Systems working good, but if i scroll Down its crashing again. Is it possible to figure out the right config?

Sorry for that! ;-)

@Arcanthur

Thank you!

Does anyone know this error messages?

I got these error messages after the installation and usage of the sega cd theme.

Thanks!

HurricaneFan

@legendos Are you running the latest version of emulationstation? I believe 'animate' was added around October 2019.

legendos

@HurricaneFan

Thank you!

Everything was updated instead of emulationstation! Shame on me...

But two problems are still remaining...

I cannot see the video preview of a selected rom, but i was able to hear it. I used the newest skraper beta for windows to download the videos, covers, ...
For example, the video file from sonic 1 is here:
\roms\megadrive\media\videos\Sonic The Hedgehog.mp4

It must be the right path for it, right?

My last problem is this:
Some platforms like the Mega Drive (Europe) are missing some logos, backgrounds. And you can see some letter from the game description in the left:

And some other platforms seems to be looking complete:

I hope anybody can help me with this.

I don´t know what to do, to solve the problem.

Best regards!
