      @lilbud idk about the newgen theme. But github is version control so you can commit new changes as you develop your project. It's how the RetroPie project and themes are maintained. You can see this repository as an example:

      https://github.com/RetroPie/es-theme-carbon

      It's a bit of a learning curve but there are lots of guides online on YouTube and other places on how to use it.

      If you read the documentation it will answer 99% of your questions: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/

      Also if you want a solution to your problems read this first: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

          @lilbud its added when its complete ;)

          but in the esthemes.sh module locally after this line:

          https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/841c5b237f025af2c458ea7b8c6caa7a36c644fe/scriptmodules/supplementary/esthemes.sh#L69

          you can add 'lilbud material' and then you should be able to install it with theme installer from the setup script.

              Very nice, look forward to the rest. Will you be doing Arcade and Daphne as well? Only a few themes support those as far as I could find.

                Also, when it's complete, you could take a couple screenshots of the system screen and gamelist screen and make a pull request to https://github.com/wetriner/es-theme-gallery and an addition to the images.list, so they're available to preview in the esthemes module. If you want everything up to date right away.

                          @Finhead yeah, no results on the ES Scraper for any system after about 5 min of being frozen. Sselph's Scraper, I go to "scrape chosen systems" select Amiga, (or any system) and it fails to scrape. I just need people to test if box art is the right dimensions.

                            I can try it out for you no problem, if you want to go through it and send me a download link you can Send me a message on my Facebook page since I don;t think this board has a PM option.

                                  @Finhead Here you go, The Daphne material theme. You will have to replace the Daphne folder in the simple theme, for this theme is based off of that.

                                  Daphne download

                                    I installed this to try out but I can't seem to get Daphne to use images. I think it's a issue with the emulator not the theme though.

                                          I don't think that would fix the issue with Daphne if that is what you mean. I "think" Daphne rewrites the gamelist.xml file every reboot. At least that seems to be the case for me, everytime I change the file to point to artwork it reverts back to the original xml when I reboot for the changes to take effect.

                                            Would I edit this post for the release of the theme, or would I make a new topic?
