@salor10 Awesome job!
If you want i will send to you the masters.
Entirely up to you, if you want me to add it to my branch I will need them. I will be sure to credit you for the contribution.

@salor10 Those look really great, though I have one little suggestion for improvement of the Beats of Rage picture. The picture in the middle right is oviously stretched which makes the characters look out of proportion and "fat". I would recommend to find a fitting one that doesn't need stretching. 🧐

How do we go about making new system images? is there a template we can use? or do we submit a request?
I need to make system images for:
Atomiswave

Neo-Geo CDThank you for such an amazing theme, it is still my all time favorite theme, absolutely love it.

How do I add this image to the theme? can you point me to the instructions, I am brand new at this and appreciate the help. Thank you.

@KazeOne I have those themes in my fork
I also made a post that might answer some of your questions.
I still plan on adding, and doing more stuff for this theme, but currently lack the motivation to do it, as I am actually playing some the games in my back log now, and been thinking about getting into streaming.
If anyone does want a particular theme or edit request just submit a ticket on github and I will priorities those.

Someone knows how to fix the "stars" of every game rating not showing properly?
-
@sergio_mikkos Depending on the version of Emulationstation and how you have it setup in the gamelist.xml file. It can be several things.
I was able to reproduce the issue on my Raspberry Pi 2B, as well as on Jrassa's EmulationStation port for Windows. From what I can tell it is probably something to do with the new Z-indexing (Image Layering) As the image is present but the grayed out image is overlapping the colored image.
But this is might be an issue with Retropie's EmulationStation itself. As this behavior does not appear on fabricecaruso's EmulationStation.
-
@Zenjiro Thanks!
In the stars I can appreciate a bit of the red color outlining the star, so I guess the problem is with the Z-indexing you said.
Is there any way to manually fix it?
And another question: I just saw that the theme is being updated by you (great work dude!) and now the last version is 3.2 Beta, how can I update the theme to this new version or download it from scratch (maybe from the Retropie Setup Menu)? Actually I am using the Comic Book Theme downloaded from the retropie setup menu which I guess is the original TMNT version.
Thanks!

@sergio_mikkos If you are going to use my fork I recommend starting fresh or renaming it to something like comicbook_revived or anything other than the default. I moved several folders and images around so if you were to overwrite what you already have it will probably break something.
Best thing to do is to download it from my github page and manually add it to your themes directory.
As for fixing the overlay of the two images, I can poke around, but can't guarantee I can get it working. I am a very novice themer and have self taught myself several things during this project.
-
@sergio_mikkos hahahahaha well... I fixed it
It was stupid simple to do.
I will update it to my fork, but it you want to do it manually, all you need to so is open the comic_book.xml in the text editor of your choice. (I use Notepad++) And edit the following:
From this:
<rating name="md_rating"> <pos>0.87 0.66</pos> <size>0 0.038</size> <filledPath>./_assets/star_filled.png</filledPath> <unfilledPath>./_assets/star_empty.png</unfilledPath> </rating>
To This:
<rating name="md_rating"> <pos>0.87 0.66</pos> <size>0 0.038</size> <unfilledPath>./_assets/star_empty.png</unfilledPath> <filledPath>./_assets/star_filled.png</filledPath> </rating>
What is happening is that when it is applying the images on the screen it first applies the star_filled.png then the star_empty.png, which causes the overlap. So the edit just changes the order of apply the empty star image first, then the filled one.
-
@Zenjiro great dude!! :D
I will download it and install it as soon as you update your fork :)
Thanks!!

@sergio_mikkos It has already been updated. The version naming I am using is subjective. I will typically create a new branch if I am experimenting with new features. The latest is 3.2-Beta2 and small tweaks like the one you pointed out will simply be added whenever I make a push to the repo, and if anyone else finds small graphical errors I will do the same, and make adjustments to the images.
The reason it is Beta is because I made so many changes/alterations that there might be some small issues here and there, as well as possible compatibility issues with older devices, but overall it is complete in its current form.

Currently in-between jobs, so I have some more spare time to pump out a few more themes here and there.
Wish she got a spot in Super Smash Bros Ultimate.
-
My personal goal is to create one theme per day, until all the tickets I've created for myself have been completed.
Here is todays:

Today we have Devil May Cry:

These updates are looking great, but has anyone noticed that the border.svg file reduces the fps by about 15 in the main menu?
