Retrorama Comic Theme

@lipebello

do you still have the old Daphne cover?

Would be nice if you can post it here ;)

The reason is, i dont want to mix old and new covers (old ones have seperate colored bars, etc).
Maybe you can put both versions on your GitHub, so everyone can choose which one to use :)

thanks

They both are on Github and they both can be installed from RetroPie-Setup:

This one (https://github.com/lipebello/es-theme-retrorama) is the 3 years old theme.

I was looking for the newer cover. Take a look, the upper newer cover with the retrorama logo is different in many ways.

@lipebello I freaking love the Bulleta artwork for Naomi

[sergioad]

i have been on recalbox for quite some time now but this new theme has made me comeback to the retropie project. i love this just like i did your previous one.

One question, where do i download the new splash intro from

Thanks for your time and work

I noticed that all of the images are .JPGs.

Why not switch them all over to .PNG?

(unless it's about storage space)

[lipebello]

@h2805270 jpgs reads faster than pngs. I only use png when I need transparency, so pi can handle a lot of systems

@lipebello

can you post the blank book background image please?

I want to rearrange some elements to make it fit for my RG351P, just for private use ;)

many thx in advance

[lipebello]

[Manfred28]

Hi, I've just discovered this theme and caught up on the thread - there have been a lot of ups and downs! But what an incredible theme, @lipebello you are truly a talent!
The theme goes beautifully with my Streamline Moderne-style cabinet, and I can't wait for the 4:3 version.

Thank you so much for all the time you have dedicated to the community

[lipebello]

@djmoss Thank you! glado you like it

Hi @lipebello
Fisrt of all I want to say "Merci beaucoup" for your fantastic theme. I had a look on many themes and I totally love yours. For me it's the best.
I use batocera since fews weeks. Before, I used recalbox. But since I bought a mini pc batocera's more interesting.
On both os, I've dl your theme but I don't know why, the jpeg files for certains systems don't appear...
It's just a black screen. I can enter into this systems and find the differents roms, but same problem, the jpeg file for the roms doesn't appears.
I've check into the systems files of your theme and I have found nothing wrong.
Does anybody meets the same problem and/or have a solution to propose to me.
(sorry if my english is not very good...)
Thanks a lot to everybody who take attention to my message.

@joe-gillian Hello, thanks a lot! I don't know much about emulationstation on batocera and recalbox (i've only heard that recalbox use a lot of memory), since they use a different version of it, but in retropie, i go to the ui settings menu (start) and change the vram to 80~100 and it doesn't show blank screens

[Joe Gillian]

@lipebello Thanks for your answer. I tryed your idea but nothing has change. The same wallpapers don't appears. I notice that when I enter into this systems, I can't see any text for the descriptions of the games, just the covers of the differents games and their names. So I make a supposition, maybe the problem comes from the gamelist file ? Anyway, the theme is always over cool, just not perfect on my setup.

[lipebello]

@joe-gillian if another theme shows the texts, then the problem it's on the theme. But you download the theme on my github page or someone converted the theme to another emulationstation ports? maybe the theme needs some fix to run good on batocera and recallbox, but it would need someone who knows about them to confirm this, since i've only used recalbox once and it was on 2017. Don't know how it works

[Joe Gillian]

@lipebello I think you are right. I downloaded the theme from your github and tried others that don't have this problem. Maybe I should try updating my batocera. I'll try this soon and keep you posted.
