I don't think stty would help here, but try adding quiet to the cmdline.txt line, this should suppress the boot messages. See more options at https://retropie.org.uk/docs/FAQ/#how-do-i-hide-the-boot-text.

That's it, thanks.

@anthrax Yes. You can edit the theme.xml file within the theme folder to change the size developer text. There are some more details about how to do that here:

Theme Editing

If you are interested in the layout I edited in the post above, I can send you that specific theme file.

my fault !! I was skipping it. Thanks

Pretty cool! I love the 3DS UI.
I think you should separate the objects that i've marked on another layer and use a zindex higher than the carousel, that will prevent it to fade and you can use another transition styles to create new effects, like i did on swineapple and stranger stuff.

@ectoone said in Freeplay Theme:

@rxbrad I think the latest stable version is available here: https://github.com/jrassa/EmulationStation/releases/tag/continuous

Thanks... I was able to grab ES v2.7.4 (Feb 2017 build) with that link, which is better than the v2.2.0 that I was only able to find on my own.

Interesting how the horizontal-wheel carousel apparently works on that build (was added late-January I think), but not the official build that came with Retropie v4.4 in April.

Sorry for the late reply. I've actually ported the nes theme over to my snes mini theme and that supports a 4:3 mode in the config file. More info here: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/12583/snes-mini-theme/708

I am using a pi zero in combination with a 3.5 inch monitor via composite output of the pi
The emulator used is lr-gpsp

If I were to use the GBA 3.5 Theme to build my own Game Boy Classic Edition, what type of splash screen would you recommend in this situation?

Thanks everyone. These are some very good choices.
