@anderocha What do you see when you follow these instructions?

Then go to the main menu in emulation station (by pressing start) and choose UI Settings, then Gamelist View Style and choose detailed.

@anderocha If this code exists already in the detailed section, you should be able to display a screenshot from the detailed view (enabled by the instructions in the last post).

Provided that you have a screenshot for each game in the screenshot folder and the correct pathway to that image in the game list.

cnoto

@anderocha I guess I should ask, what folders are you using to store your screenshot artwork and cover artwork?

anderocha

@cnoto The adjustment on mine for DETAILED I already did.

In the games folder I have the folders below:

media \ images
media \ screenshot

Here is a model of the gamelist:

<game id = "152600" source = "ScreenScraper.fr">
<path> ./Alex Kidd 3 - Curse In Miracle World.zip </path>
<name> ALEX KIDD 3- CURSE IN MIRACLE WORLD </name>

@anderocha

I managed to add the lines below:

     <text name="systemInfo">
		<origin>0.5 0.5</origin>
        <pos>0.5 0.85</pos>
        <backgroundColor>14141400</backgroundColor>
        <color>666666</color>
        <fontPath>./_inc/fonts/Cabin-Bold.ttf</fontPath>
        <fontSize>0.0222222222222222</fontSize>
     </text>

As soon as I finish I bring more details.

@anderocha Are you trying to show just one system at a time?

If so try adding the following line to the carousel section:

This is how it looks for me in another theme I am working on:

<carousel name="systemcarousel">
<type>vertical</type>
<pos>0.0 0.02</pos>
<logoAlignment>center</logoAlignment>
<size>1 0.9</size>
<logoScale>1.4</logoScale>
<zIndex>2</zIndex>
<logoSize>0.4 0.35</logoSize>
<color>00000000</color>
<maxLogoCount>1</maxLogoCount>
</carousel>

@anderocha O.K. I think I better understand your question. I think the origin line is messing you up. What if you remove that?
