@Striderx99 As the original creator has not been here since 2018 and the theme has not been touched on GitHub since 2017, the likelihood is very low for any updates.
But can download the theme here and have at it. Make it your own.
There are plenty of resources out there to learn how to theme. And starting with a base theme makes it easier.

@lipebello Man... You dont stop surprising us, wonderfull job

I just said "fuck it" and decided to overwrite the icons.

@madmodder123 I changed the vector images of buttons to symbolic (playstation). I converted them from a raster to a vector in an inscape.
In this thread, @jacobfk20 helped me with the compilation, and everything worked.

@meleu said in Extras for RetroPie themes (icons, splashscreens and launching images) | es_theme_extras shell script:

The first thing I would change is that backtitle saying "Backtitle", lol

Hahaha, you're right! xD

But I was waiting because I wanted to know how can I implement RetroPie's variables, for example: $__backtitle or functions, like gitPullOrClone. Do I need to reference other files?

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

@jonathanball Wonderfull :)

I don't want to start any arguments so if a mod can delete this whole topic please?

@SonPluck /dev/shm/runcommand.log

It won't work if you remove the SD to plug in another computer because files under /dev/shm are RAM based, which means that they only exist while the raspi is on.

FYI for anyone browsing this in the future The first line of those 4 blank ones is the name of the folder, the second is the description, the third is the link to a thumbnail and I have no clue what the fourth one is. Might be worth adding this as a bug in the github though! The devs may be unaware that editing the meta data on a folder is not populating the fields like it should!

@herb_fargus

Is there any way to manually add this? Or by copying certain files from the old un-updated version?

Cool, no problem. At least this gives people some alternatives. :) Happy to share anything that's useful.

@frgn This download no longer works. I'm looking for one where B and A are switched and Y and X are switched

I fixed the issue by resetting my RetroPie gamelist to the default settings.

Open /opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation/gamelists/retropie/ Replace gamelist.xml with these preset settings Restart EmulationStation

Your icons should hopefully return with full descriptions.
