New Comic Book Theme!
-
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.
-
@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.
-
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.
-
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?
@Striderx99 said in New Comic Book Theme!:... 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.

Sorry, but I was referring to the issues I'm having with the SNES-Mini theme. It doesn't seem to "behave" well with the Retrobat version of EmulationStation on Windows 10. The funny thing is that I have used this same theme on Retropie on my Raspberry Pi 3B and it displays exactly the way it should. To see exactly what I mean, just click on this image here:

@Striderx99 You should report this to the RetroBat package maintainer, the difference is the EmulationStation version included in that package - it might be a bug there, not in the theme.
-
@Zenjiro great job.
-
@Zenjiro
art for naomi. I made it so time ago. YOu can use it. -
@Zenjiro art for atomiswave.
.You can use it too. -
@salor10 Thank you for sharing. I added them, and they will be included in the next official release. I also added you to the ReadMe for credit.

I wanted to post this here for feed back.
One of the biggest changes I am planning for this next release is to make this theme more "Living-Room Friendly" which basically means, increasing the font size by a lot. (Also see 10ft Interface)
I did not include these changes in the Beta I just but out because I was afraid it might be to distracting for some users. Here are two snap shots of before and after the font change:
Current:
New:
Notably I only changed the Font Size of the Game List and the Description sections. I also tinkered a bit with the description scrolling and selection highlight cursor to better fit their respective areas. If you wish to try it out your self just replace the comic_book.xml file with this one. Beta_Comicbook.xml

@Zenjiro thanks, some comic.png for naomi, atomis, and X68000:
-
@salor10 They look great! Any chance that you'll make them for 4:3, too?

@Clyde Sorry only in 16:9, but i can try to 4:3.
-
@salor10 Are you able to provide, original 1080p PNGs without the newsprint filter?
-
@Zenjiro of course, where do you want to send you?
-
@salor10 Let's not flood them here. How about you open a ticket on my github and upload them there. Or if you prefer, you can post them here but do so as a dropbox, or google drive link. That way it doesn't generate a preview, and it will be less spam-y.
