SNES mini theme

Man, what a dickhead that guy was. Banned and for good reason.

@ruckage hey man, sorry I didn't get back to you - the bug fix worked out great and my player icons are back to normal on 720p. Thanks for your help, and don't let that asshat get you down about newcomers - I'm ass deep into retropie and your theme is my go-to. I definitely appreciate you getting back to us on this stuff as quick as you do. And for that, I'm going to leave a little in your tip jar. Hope you get well soon!

@unclespooky That guy snuck over from /r/iamverysmart

Thanks for the reply, feeling quite a bit better now. It wasn't flu though, just a particularly bad cold (the term 'Man Flu' is a bit of a joke in the UK stemming from men supposedly suffering /moaning more when they have a cold).

@unclespooky
Thanks for the reply and for the donation, I appreciate it.
Glad the fix worked for you, It will be part of the next update which I really have to get to work on soon (it's about time I added a few more systems).

You're spot on :D . I love that sub, always entertaining (r/facepalm and r/quityourbulls**t are good too)

That exists here across the pond too :)

Kind of glad it's a universal thing :)

Supergrafx will be added at some point as it's on my todo list (listed on the nes mini thread). By CPS2 logo I assume you mean the finalburn alpha icon. I could maybe add other colours when I have some spare time but I don't really see why it's necessary as FBA covers multiple arcade systems (I know the CPS2 cartridges had different colours for different regions but does it really matter?).

@Beaps
You can try creating your own icons, that´s what I have done, I created a pixeled icon for supergrafx (also a supergrafx icon for the Nes mini theme) and also for some other systems, those look aligned with the aesthetic of the theme, however I will use the ones from Ruckage once he release them.

My art skills are pretty much none haha. I use this theme on my hacked real snes classic console and I have Cps1 Cps2 & Cps3 hence the other 2 colours blue and orange. As for supergrafx I don't have one :-(

Hello ruckage, are you also planning to make Loading Screens suitable for the SNES Mini Theme?

@ruckage Hey maybe you can help me!

I downloaded this theme and added it to opt/retropie/config/all/emulationstation/themes and it loads fine. I wanted to change the region to USA and the background to blurred_shots_black_vignette so I made the necessary changes to the config.xml file but now the theme does not load any images at all, and retropie throws up "XML parsing error: file was not found" errors. What can I do to customize this theme and have it work?

ruckage

@r4l
Please post a copy of your config.xml so I can check for errors.

@cybermen
Hi. You could use the ones I made for nes-mini that @mitu linked to for now but I will probably make a set specifically for the snes-mini theme as well.

R4L

@ruckage

Here's the config.xml.

Cybermen

Cool :-)

I can't see any problems in the config.xml.

You say it says: "XML parsing error: file was not found".
What file exactly is it saying it can't find?

R4L

@ruckage
There are about 20 errors. Each say the same thing:

lvl0: from theme "/etc/emulationstation/themes/snes-mini/theme.xml" XML parsing error: File was not found

That's all it says I'm afraid. I have checked that directory and theme.xml is there with info inside. Maybe it has to do with me editing the XML file in nano?
