Flat Theme

[silviustro]

I have attempted to install the theme on the latest version of retropie and all I get is the blank theme... I can't explain why, as I looked trough the flat.xml file and the syntax seems to be OK.

I love this theme, except for the colors on the background of the system carousel. I created a fork that just has grey backgrounds there, in case anybody is interested in that modification. Everything else is the same great theme (great work lilbud)!

@lilbud Is the grid view available? Or is that a concept? Or is there some way to do it with the master that I don't understand?

[lilbud]

@hooperre that was a concept, it takes a lot of time for grid view, of which I have none currently. Been too busy playing Breath of the Wild, (35 hours and counting, I need help.)

I'll probably do that when grid view is in the official branch.

UPDATE: 39 hours and 3 minutes

@lilbud Is this ready to be added to the ES themes installer?

[lilbud]

@robertybob I would think so, unfortunately I have no say in accepting themes. Probably have to ask @herb_fargus

[herb_fargus]

@lilbud submit a PR.

[lilbud]

@herb_fargus Where would I submit the PR?

[herb_fargus]

@lilbud https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/master/scriptmodules/supplementary/esthemes.sh

[lilbud]

@herb_fargus Done and Done

[lilbud]

The Flat theme, as well as the dark variant, have been added to the ES-Theme repository

Famicom Disk system and ports are missing, just reporting ☺ I love the theme but as everybody I want not to see blank pages 😁

[lilbud]

@sergioad Both version of the theme have been updated with support for ports and Famicom Disk System

[sergioad]

@lilbud thank you very much

[sergioad]

Apologies but I have yet another report, PCEngine has a Nintendo logo while it was owned by Hudson software

By the way friend could you add support for optional gamelist scrolling sounds? I want to use the Carbon theme's sounds

[lilbud]

@sergioad logos updated, as for sound, probably not. I have no clue how to add sound.

[herb_fargus]

@lilbud have you tested the theme on older versions of emulationstation without video support?

[sergioad]

@lilbud maybe @Rookervik could help you to add the option of sound

[herb_fargus]

@sergioad just look at themes that have sound and copy the respective code in the XML.

[lilbud]

@herb_fargus No, it only works on the official ES with video support. It would work on @Zigurana ES-Kids branch, but the video tags crash the theme on his ES.
