@ruckage Love the mini NES theme, i made carousel icons for Kodi, Apple2, Atari ST, Atari XE, Channel F, and NES Hacks. I was wondering if you wanted to use them for your theme?

Would someone be able to help me fix the game list of this theme please?

I see only 6 games listed out of the 7 rows.
When I scroll only the first 6 have games listed. The 7th is always blank.

My monitor is 2560 x 1440. The theme is set to 1920 x 1080.
Using Retropie on Ubuntu x86 PC.
Using the NES Mini version.

Thanks.

@stuart2773 Hi! I'm wondering if you already have finished this theme, it looks awesome and I haven't found nothing more accurate to the NES/FAMICOM MINI Themes.

It is for ES?

Thank you!

How to enable and use grid view? I am using ES mod but no grid view option found

Hello,

I'm really impressed by the talent some people have. Unfortunately, I'm not as skilled as people here. I would like first to thanks Ruckage for his work. That's absolutely beautiful.

However, I have a pretty straight forward question about the nes mini themes: Is an option or a workaround to have parralax scrolling of the game, like the picture below?

Thanks for your answer.

Could you share this theme with grid view support? Thanks

This happened after updating the emulationstation, I had this problem, the solution was to go back to the previous version.

could you help me with any link to do that? can't find anything, don't know how to look up for it (english is not my first language). Thanks!

EDIT: I couldn't rollback the ES version, but I did managed to mod ruckage theme. Edit the nesmini.xml and add "pos/size" (in bold text)

Hope this helps!

Great solution, I'll try it to see if it works for me.

Thanks.

Post the feedback in a little while.

It worked, but sometimes the emulationstation breaks, and you need to restart and hope to work.

The best solution for now is to mount the original retropie image (version 4.7.1) and go to the folder \opt\retropie\supplementary\emulationstation
and copy the files and replace in the folder with the problem version, which is in the same place on the sd card.
You need root privileges for this, you can copy over the network.

That's the way I found it, if someone knows it easier, just teach us.

To make life easier for all of us, here are what you need:

Hi, I run the snes-mini-master theme and ran into this issue when i updated everything. To fix the layout issue I removed the background images on the game list ( it removes the boxes around the game names). I think it actually looks less busy and cleaner on my setup.

I edited the following part out by commenting out these sections in this file es-theme-snes-mini-master/layouts/setup.xml ( around line 85 or so ):

<!--	
		<image name="gamelist_background" extra="true">
			<path>./../art/gamelist_background${wide}.png</path>
			<size>0 0.7333333333333333</size>
			<origin>0.5 0.5</origin>
			<pos>0.5 0.5</pos>
			<color>4d4d4d9a</color>
		</image>
	
		<image name="gamelist_outline" extra="true">
			<path>./../art/gamelist_outline${wide}.png</path>
			<size>0 0.7333333333333333</size>
			<origin>0.5 0.5</origin>
			<pos>0.5 0.5</pos>
			<color>ffffffbe</color>
			<zIndex>200</zIndex>
		</image>
-->

maybe on the theme you are using you could do something similar to remove the box surrounding the list of games

Yes it segfaults and crashes, and the same behavior is happening with the SNES-mini theme.

@gpeds would you be able to post the result with a photo?

@mitu Here are the images, as requested:

NES:

I also created, copied and renamed background files in each necessary directory to go along with these:

background/bg_tron/auto-random.png

background/bg_tron_blur/auto-random.png

background/bg_tron_blur_usa/auto-random.png

background/bg_tron_usa/auto-random.png

This is the last update (I felt I could get the icons even closer to the style of ruckage's originals, and believe that I have). Here are ALL of the assets I've adjusted for the ruckage/es-theme-snesn-mini theme for RetroPie. This includes backgrounds, labels and icons for the auto-random list that goes with all the different configurations of this theme that are available by editing config.xml that comes with the theme. They are as follows:

Icons
es-theme-snes-mini/art/icons and es-theme-snes-mini/art/icons_usa

es-theme-snes-mini/art/nes_icons and es-theme-snes-mini/art/nes_icons_usa

Logos
es-theme-snes-mini/art/logos and es-theme-snes-mini/art/logos_usa

Backgrounds
