It will be interesting to try performance of emulationstation vs the pegasus variants

I found the solution by combing the files from HerbFargus' 1.8.1 build with the latest files from jrassa's build + including the latest version of Retroarch executables in the Retroarch system folder. The only issue I'm noticing is the space between some of the fonts is squeezed together or centered on my television screen. Thanks again for your input 😊.

@altruistictrog Hi mate, I'm interested in your work on the RetroCRT image. I always look out for new configs and solutions (use Pi2SCART myself). Is there any contact with you outside this forum (email, reddit or something) ?

@paffley Thank you! I'll give this a try! update: This did the trick! My carousel assets and backgrounds load perfectly after resizing the backgrounds from 1920x1080 to 1280x720. Thanks!

This is what it would look like with the systems the other way (while still sticking mostly to the MGS game) If everyone would like it better this way, I could leave it like this. (ignore the games available location, that may or may not change in the future)

And I didn't get around to make the aforementioned changes for your setup either, because I'm on vacation for a movie festival where I watch 2-3 movies every day over the whole week. :) About the artwork's space: Yeah, I figured as much. But none said that retrogaming is a piece of cake (and if they said that, they lied). I'll keep this on my to-do list and look forward for any updates on your side.

Oops, never mind - I was trying to edit the wrong version of the file. The one in /opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation/themes/carbon was the one I wanted.

You can check the theme gallery to see how themes look - it's not a 100% complete, but has many previews.

@njscorpio The menu has the version at the bottom - just report what version you're on.

@mitu Fixing the case sensitivity worked! Thanks for your help.

Emulationstation doesn't support that, but you can check AttractMode or Pegasus.

@Akyita said in UI Feedback Sounds: -Is there a way to put more sounds? No, Emulationstation doesn't have support for other sounds other than the gamelist navigation (scrolling through games).

@pockketz yes its possible, make sure you create a new folder for your combination and not overwriting existing files. Copy the file "simple.xml", the "art" folder, and any other lose file in the Tronkyfran folder to the new folder, then copy all the folders (except art folder) from carbon to the new theme folder. It looks like the paths for those two themes are the same, but expect many parameters to be off, such as text and images being misaligned. So you will likely need to read up on themes here https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Creating-Your-Own-EmulationStation-Theme

Wow, that was fast! Thank you @mitu

Thanks for all that info! I'll try it out and tell you.
