SNES mini theme

Again, this is beautiful. I just can't use it until 4x3 support is added. But again, very well done.

Any plan to add it to the ES theme manager? :)

@felleg
I'd like to but I'm not sure how, if anyone can tell me how I add it I'd be glad to.

Just to help contribute a bit to your great theme, I've managed to get my hands on the lossless source file of the SNES Classic menu music. Here it is for all to enjoy!

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8aVDtBDk0B3VHp5eVFQZC1kNlU

Along with the source .wav file (which can be looped to your heart's content), I've included an mp3 that was created using the wav file, which I looped 4 times and added a 10 second fadeout to.

EDIT: I've now included the NES Classic's menu music as well, both in lossless and mp3, so please redownload it if you haven't!

@maplestory Thanks for sharing the music! Do you have a link to a guide to add background music to RetroPie/Emulation Station?

I've been meaning to use this one:

Seems pretty straight forward so far. Hopefully this will be added by default to Retropie 4.4!

Just to let you know, the PR was merged just a little while ago.

Just in case you'd like the source sound effects of the SNES Classic, you can download them from here:

No problem.

Hi @ruckage , love the theme, but I have some small issue. The background turns black when I switch between consoles in the menu. Not when I select them, but just when I scroll through them. Anyway to keep the background the same and not have it turn to black while I am scrolling?

seephor

nvm i got it to work. I just had to change the transition style to instant.

Just had to create an account to say after being disheartened from missing out on the SNES Mini, seeing this theme made me dig out my Raspberry Pi and get to grips with RetroPie. It’s an awesome theme. Thanks a lot.

If you could add the music & sounds provided in those recent posts it’ll be perfecto!

Please add Nintendo DS (DraStic) graphics so I can play Mario Kart DS without switching themes.

@baz Already in it, I have NDS on mine ...

Hi,

Welcome to the forum and I'm glad you like the theme.

NDS has been included with this from the start, there was an error in the very first version I released so that the NDS icon wouldn't appear but that was fixed very quickly, try installing the latest version if you're having problems.

Regarding music and sounds, ES currently only supports a list scroll sound effect and a launch sound effect (though this doesn't seem to work with instant transitions) so there is no way for me to incorporate all the sound effects into this.
Likewise background music is also not supported by ES, this is something you would need to add yourself.

See this post by @synack for what I found to be the easiest way to setup background music: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/347/background-music-continued-from-help-support/43

@ruckage can you please check also missing supergrafx icon?
There is the background image but not he icon itself. :)

Also amiga would be coool :)

Thanks for the massive work!

EDIT: OK nevermind, I changed my resolution to 1080p and the problem is gone. It was bad scaling at 720p

I've seen something that I can't unsee, a very small flaw... that became a huge problem for me lol
When you move to Atari, the instructions above move by few pixels (on the emulator selection AND roms selection menu). Since my transition style is set to "instant", I can see the instructions above move D:

Any quick fix?

And THANKS A LOT for this amazing theme. Your theme actually sold me on getting retropie.

@bobibrown
Hi. Yeah you will get strange scaling errors when not displaying at 1080p as the theme is aimed at a 1080p display. Not sure why it would differ from system to system though as all the sytems use the same base xml file, must just be a quirk of EmulationStation.
