Runcommand System Splashscreens!

Rookervik

@lilbud Thanks rook. :P

Actually I think I have a repo for these. And buzz made a change so that ports work. I'll have to chat with him tomorrow and get the correct directory structure. Then I can add these. But I will do them like the other run command screens. And probably fix Kodi. It looks turrible.

@lilbud Awesome! Thanks! I'll try them when I get home right away!

Rookervik

Ok, got the titles pixelized and now just need the directory structure.

Directory Structure:

Maldita Castilla = /opt/retropie/configs/ports/MalditaCastilla
Super Crate Box = /opt/retropie/configs/ports/SuperCrateBox
They Need To Be Fed = /opt/retropie/configs/ports/TheyNeedToBeFed

@BuZz
Do you know what folder structure I'd use for the game-maker game splash screens? I have no idea where to add them in the repository. Everything else goes in ...configs/<system>/launching.png

Rookervik

@RetroPieNerd Thank you very much. :D

Rookervik

@RetroPieNerd The capitals are correct? They aren't all lower-case?

Rookervik

Looks like you can grab the screens from this link.

I don't know if there's a downloader on the retropie menu. As far as I know you just download all of this as a zip. Which can be done, here. LOL. Green button, click "Clone or Download" and download it wherever it is you download stuff.

Dropbox is changing the public folder so I won't upload anything there until that's all settled down.

@Rookervik

Yes I am sure, I checked it in the script to install them.

@Rookervik

You could just directly clone it to the Raspberry Pi in the file manager for now...

@Rookervik

Thanks for the awesome splashscreens! Cheers!

@Rookervik very nice picture pack! Is there also a version available for the carbon theme?

Rookervik

@daeks No splash pack for the Carbon theme. A splash pack for Carbon would take considerably longer to create and be quite a large file size. I didn't plan on making one. Especially considering there are well over 80 splash screens to create for a "pack" *(-_-)

daeks

@Rookervik too bad, but anyhow I have added it to my installation. I really like it.

Rookervik

@daeks Let me know if you run into any systems that won't launch after installing the splash screens. For me, Final Burn stopped launching when I put a splash screen for it. Removing the splash screen allowed it to go back to running again.

@Rookervik let's fix it! I'm using the fba launching screen with no issues!
Is your RetroPie updated? What version?

herb_fargus

@Rookervik idk it may be possible to batch script a launch image for each system based on the assets already available with carbon- perhaps like the ones we did for paradox when we were attempting that great failure...

If anyone is feeling ambitious ;)

Rookervik

@herb_fargus It would be hard to find a program that would be able to use SVG, though. I was planning to flatten all the Carbon SVGs down to PNG at some point to increase speed, maybe now is a good time.
