@Thorr69 just give it a try and see if it works.

I updated the core packages to the latest and installed the theme. It works (mostly).

@cyperghost Yes, the idea is to allow this theme runs under es menu, but its not uploaded on my GitHub so we have to wait to Nik to make a pull request

Nick has made the pull request already.
https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/pull/3099

It should be merged to the main RetroPie project soon and it will be available through the es menu. :)

Please note that this is for the 16:9 version of the theme. If anyone wants the 4:3 version they need to get it directly from the link in the 1st post of the thread.

Enjoy! :)

@nil06 thumbs up!

[cyperghost]

@chicuelo It's selectable inside their ES-theme rooster as additional download and it works very good there.

Could you make a 16:10 version? Thank you in advance and awesome theme. Really great work!

[GeekOB]

Loving the theme @chicuelo and @nil06, especially how big the area for media is.
My only comment so far is that the text for the buttons on the bottom of the screen overlaps with some of the metadata of the game.
Also, special request: would you make Disney and Sesame Street collection arts?
Thanks!

[chicuelo]

@cyperghost Great! good to reach other frontends!

[chicuelo]

@SchwarzBrot Thanks! Whats de difference against a 16:9 one?

[chicuelo]

@GeekOB Can you send me a screenshot of this overlap? I have all displaying fine on my build

Hi @chicuelo . I love your theme, could you adapt it to Recalbox?? People don't make themes for it, and I don't know how to adapt your theme.. Thanks in advance.

[GeekOB]

For some reason my screenshot doesn't display properly

[chicuelo]

@Sheyk90 Im not familiarized with recalbox so I dont know how to do it, maybe someone who knows about could help

[gomisensei]

@GeekOB I believe you are referring to the button labels from EmulationStation. If so, try turning them off in UI Settings by turning selecting "On-screen Help" to "off"

Looks like an issue with the theme installation or the theme's files.

[chicuelo]

@AkiAfroo I had those two problems, the font one was caused by the size, which is already solved, and the other due the low vram dedicated to emulation station, also I had to split the memory up to 512 mb on my pi

[AkiAfroo]

@chicuelo @mitu thanks for the quick response,
I discovered that the problem apart from the low ram was the size of my monitor (27 "2k res) but... if i add this parameters at the end of the shortcut ...\emulationstation.exe
for 720p---> perfect!
--resolution 1280 720

for 1080p --> perfect!
--resolution 1920 1080

for 2k (2560 × 1440) with and without this parameters
appears the glitches that i posted before

in my second 24" (1920x1080) monitor works out-the-box - without those parameters.

my question is... , the theme need to be rebuild to works to this res or i just need to change some parameters to make it works in my 2560 × 1440 monitor ?

and thanks to all of you guys.

@chicuelo
A 16:9 for example has 1920x1080 while 16:10 has 1920:1200. 16:10 is more compatible with 4:3 Games because the distortion is lesser.

[chicuelo]

@AkiAfroo Its designed in 1920x1080!
