Runcommand System Splashscreens!

pjft

@meleu Oh. Ok, that's very interesting to know - thanks for the breakdown.

Then, correct me if if I'm wrong: the script is, indeed, making the loading process take 2 more seconds than it would without the image being shown? Is that correct?

Thanks.

If you're talking about RetroPie on a Raspberry Pi, then you're absolutely right. I have nothing to correct. :-)

As I said above, on a x86/X11 platform, runcommand uses feh to show the image and launch it in background.

@meleu Sorry. I did mean on the Raspberry Pi indeed. :)

Thanks for the heads up!

Hope you're doing well.

It wont work on the Megadrive for me. Its working perfect on all the other consoles. Any ideas?

meleu

@Caveman420 is there a file named /opt/retropie/configs/megadrive/launching.png in your system?

Caveman420

@meleu yeah it is. I have two folders for roms Genesis and Megadrive, but only one for config files, Megadrive. If I delete the genesis rom folder it deletes the megadrive one as well. I also tried adding a genesis config folder and copying the contents of the megadrive config folder but nothing. I'm still new to retropie not really sure what else to try.

meleu

@Caveman420 I can't confirm right now, but I think the ...configs/genesis is a symbolic link to ...configs/megadrive...
I suggest you to remove and reinstall lr-picodrive, it would reinstall the config files you messed up.
And then try to put the megadrive launching.png in the right place.

@backstander
Could it have somethng to do with the fact i am using Pixel-Metadata instead of the regular theme?

Caveman420

@meleu Ok I tried that and nothing happened. I just wiped everything and started a fresh install using the image I got from the retropie website and the exact same thing happened

No. Well I'm not sure but I think these "Runcommand System Splashcreens" are not tied to the ES Theme you're using.

@Rookervik the download link is not working for me. dropbox says the file cannot be found.

meleu

@Rookervik maybe a link to the github repository in the OP would avoid all these guys saying the same thing about the broken dropbox link. ;-)
