Chicuelo Theme

@gerry_keys not sure but if you switch the tags <image> and <thumbnail> in your gamelist and set it to video?
Now the thumbnails will be the game screen and the image the box art

@keigan said in Chicuelo Theme:

@jonathandownin

Loading screens: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1spB3GkRqiOST4Mmv6IrDqEPKgJeKxHMM

Subfolders: colour / grey include the saved png's

There is a PSD in the main folder that is set up you just need to throw the logos in, resize and change the colour. The fonts used are also in the main folder.

For the grey theme the hex values for the colours are

Logo: #F8F8F8
Bottom Text: #A5A5A5
Background: #4D4F5B

Anyone can use this to make the loading screens look how you please

They seem to be offline. Did anyone save them or can anyone recommend other loading screens that also fit to this theme?

Also I want to add some custom systems and collections. I want to add this:

Systems:

Openbor
Adventure Game Studio
Solarus
MSU-1

Collections:

Lightgun
Fan-Translations
Rom-HAcks
Mario
Metroid
Zelda
Japanese games
Multiplayer Highlights
Maniac Mansion Mania Series
Kunio Kun
Dragon Quest
Final Fantasy
Pokémon
Mega Man
Harvest Moon
Castlevania
Harry Potter

I already saw screenshots for some of those. Where can I find them?
I am okay with creating them of my own. Can anyone recommend some sources for the artwork, logos, controllers?
Is there a guide for how I have (file format, dimensions...) to prepary the character, logo and controller artwork?
@chicuelo in previous versions you have some alternative artworks. Maybe I could use some of them for my custom selection. Can you share them?

Last I also would like to have Bezels as well es a Boot up Splash screen that fits to the theme. Can anyone recommend things that are fit to this theme?

@kitn 4. Maybe some 3rd users contributions?

I made my first try for Solarus game engine. I still have to make some tweaks the character is too big for example. But I figured out how to do it. So when I have some spare time I am gonna start making some custom entrys of my own.

Still I am looking for System Launch Images.

@wildfire it's your theme-mod ready for download? Looks awesome .Thanks.

Hey @shark0 , I had it working on RPI3 but I gave up on it for 2 reasons:

The background images had trouble loading once you were past a certain number of systems
The automatic layout changes based on console artwork (inspired by Artbook) would not fit every user's preference and changing that feature requires editing the code.

The background images might not be an issue anymore on the RPI4 but I don't have one to try out, it's been a while since I've done anything with it to be honest.

When will you make this theme available to us Jimiga?

@chicuelo atomiswave ???

chicuelo

@mattdiego92 I have discontinued this theme, you can create that system by coping another system artwork or creating a new one

@chicuelo congrats for this amazing theme you done, this shows your personality and I love it, I am using it and I can't say how much great it is, but I'm getting a small problem there is some consoles not showing like Playstation 1 can you tell me what makes them show up on the menu and what probably make them not showing up? Thank you

chicuelo

@CYBERTUGAGAMER
Thank you. Probably you should add the system manually on the es_systems.cfg if you cant see it on the menu.
