I love this theme. I know its not being officially developed for now but I've noticed some people are continuing development is other ways.

I can't find a banner/logo for Naomi? Can anyone link me to the best tutorial post? ( I found one but I followed the instructions and it didn't come out well) or can I be cheeky and some one knock one out for me?

Now the RPi4 is out and able to run more taxing systems like atomiswave and Naomi I want to add them to my bartop arcade and need some art to make them fit with this theme.

Thanks in advance.

Zenjiro

@dusty048 You are in luck I already made one.

I'll go ahead and post them here for you and anyone else who wants to use them.

Any possibility of producing a comic.png, bannerlogo.png, and comic_rip.png for the Atomiswave set?

Thanks :-).

Zenjiro

@Striderx99 Yup already made one.

Since it seems some people are starting to request certain themes now, instead of me posting them individually when asked, I have went ahead and uploaded my current 3.2-Beta of this theme. Which can be found here: https://github.com/Zenjir0/es-theme-ComicBook/tree/3.2-Beta

!!!PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A BETA!!!
To my knowledge it should work fine, most people might say it is in a "good enough" state to at least be usable.
But I assure you there are still several tiny issues here and there. Of which you are free to open a ticket on or mention here and I will address it when I find the time.

Thank you. Now I'm only missing Sega Model 2 (AM2) and Sega Model 3. If you ever complete those, I'll look for them here again. You have done a great job at including more systems. In my opinion, this is a nice theme and is just as impressive as the SNES-Mini, but unfortunately my TV uses a 1024x768 resolution. Because of that, it doesn't show the title of each game centered with box art on the left and the description/information about developer, publisher, the genre, and game rating on the right.

Thnak you @Zenjiro this work is amazing and thank you for updating the collection as a whole on github, my Rpi4 setup will now be complete.

Zenjiro

@Striderx99 I got a Model 2 and 3 in the works. Also I am curious as to what it looks like, are you able to upload a screenshot to here or my github?

@dusty048 I still have a lot of work to do. My grand scope for this project is to also make it more accessible for others to create and build upon it.

Striderx99

I'll get some screenshots of a few of the Model 2 and Model 3 games for you. Include them in the theme for each if you would like to do that.

Striderx99

Here are two links to those pictures I mentioned. I apologize if the pictures aren't that great, but they should at least give you an idea of what these games are like.

@Striderx99 Thanks for the screenshots I will try to include them in the Model 2 and Model 3 comic.

Also what exactly does this look like?
