        "Mega Duck"? "Cougar Boy"?

        I had never even heard of these things until the lr-mess-megaduck script was made! Now I'm spending far too much time playing with these scripts, scraping, and creating new artwork. But I admit, it's been pretty fun.

        Mega Duck Overlay (work in progress):

            @chicuelo es-epicnoir it's one of my faaaaavorites! But because I can't tolerate blank spots in the collection, I created a a ton of theme.xml files specifically for your theme. They don't consider/reference the vertical scroll bar, but if you'd like them, I can send them your way. Complete with name, short description, long description (without the period at the end, to be consistent with your theme)... I've been going crazy lately.

            EDIT: Also, for the posters, I have just been duplicating the "fixedscreen.jpg" image so there's something to display.

            Another favorite of mine is Hursy's blueray Theme. Again, I hate blanks, so I created my first image there for the IIGS:
            bluray-Apple II GS.png

            I might be a little obsessed with the project!

              thanks for the appreciation :)
              i forgot to mention yesterday, in one of the latest commit i added Epoch Gamepocket (lr-mess-gamepock).
              anyway ..... it's been a rush, more than 30+ emu in a week or so, some new, some fixes to existing scripts (i.e. amiga cd32 and cdtv), my raspi have now 83 systems, all retroarch.
              i think i'm done with lr-mess, more or less.
              next step, but this will take some time, will be a proper port of daphne to retroarch.... which is actually the only missing major emu.
              i've made a c64 emulator last year as a personal project, so i should be able to do it.... finger crossed! :)

              @roslof nice themes, share eheheheh :)

                @valerino That would be pretty amazing. I tried lr-daphne, and it was a bit of a bust for me. Would be great to have lr- supported and get a proper cabinet wrapped around it.

                  last time i tried only dragon's lair worked, with no sound. first thing to get rid of is the absurd directory structure. anyway .... this will not be immediate as these scripts, it will require some time. i plan to start working on it in the next week. i'll keep you posted :)

                        @valerino I'm using the Windows version of Skraper. It's spectacular. It only scrapes Screencraper.fr, but the results get me 70-80% if the way there.

                        For Mega Duck, there were holes, so i found somebody that had all screenshots, box art, cartridge art, in a single file and i completed the set.

                        I usually search a little behind the scrape tools, and worst case, capture my own videos and screenshots.

                        But i can't keep up with these script additions.Lol!

                          Sure! That would be amazing.

                          EDIT: @chicuelo I just emailed you my additions and notes about subtle (yet significant) tweaks to existing systems (theme.xml files only).

                          Well, here is the list of systems I added to your theme. I'll ZIP my theme.xml files and send them your way. Other than their position in the vertical scroll-bar, they're meticulously accurate. Items in bold I feel have the most bang for the buck. Just my opinion though.

                                    I checked your git repo here: https://github.com/c64-dev/es-theme-epicnoir/tree/master/_art/posters

                                    Can't find atomiswave, coco, etc. Am I looking at the correct repo?

                                    (Sorry, going a little off-topic here. Can move to the es-epicnoir thread).

                                      @roslof Yes, is that repo but it´s not uploaded into my gitgub branch so I have to wait until Nik, who is in charge of that part to uploade them! I hope he soon will apply the changes!

                                        Hi
                                        I'm sorry, but I didn't understand how to add these scripts ... do I have to copy them manually into the Retropie folders?

                                        Among the Libretro cores, there is also that of Thomson, which could be an interesting addition

                                          @hermit follow here to install, basically you have to replace your Retropie-Setup folder with mine.

                                          Sure if Thomson MO5 is supported by MESS i can add it. i'm following this theme from Hursty and adding what i find is supported.

                                            I meant this core https://libretro.readthedocs.io/en/latest/library/theodore/ for Thomson T08
