SNES mini theme
-
Love this layout was wondering when it will be incorporated into the snes mini theme!?
-
Absolutely LOVE your theme. I've gone and kind of made it my own with my Batocera box on the bigscreen and have added 10+ systems that I currently emulate to the icon/logo folders and all work except Gamecube.
Example 1:
Example 2:
I have redesigned my original Icon/Logo for the Gamecube 2 times now and end up with the same result: No Icon and/or Background image when selecting it on the carousel.
I was wondering if you could possibly re-create this in your spare time. I understand you're most likely busy so no rush I'll continue to troubleshoot in the meantime.
Thanks again for a great layout and appreciate your time!

Edit: Found and fixed the problem. For both Jaguar and Gamecube to work, I looked through other themes and noticed they were calling to "atarijaguar" and "gc" whereas my rom setup in Batocera was referring to "jaguar" and "gamecube"
Once I renamed all Icons/Logos to "atarijaguar" and "gc" sure enough they appeared and work. Not sure of the discrepency there but I've notified the Batocera team on their discord.
Thanks again for the awesome theme!

I would love to have the following systems added:
BBC Micro
Apple 2
Amstrad CPC
3DO
Atari ST
Atari Jaguar
Atari 800
Saturn
Gamecube
Wii
Playstation 2
Playstation 3Probably a few more but this should cover the basics.

If anyone wants it, here is the PNG version of the Apple 2 file posted some years ago. This was not made by me but it was uploaded as a JPG file which lost all its transparency. I just converted the file format and (slowly) added back all the correctly gradient colored transparency. Maybe this also inspires someone to make some of the systems in my previous post for the community to enjoy.. I can edit but not create unfortunately. Until we get official versions to replace them with :)
-
Here is a Amstrad CPC one. Now this is based on the artwork found here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/miniSNESmods/comments/849642/folders_icons_update/Again, I cannot create, only edit so I did my best to scale and edit the artwork so it uses the same size rectangle box in our theme here. It isn't the same style but it is "close enough". The logo above the picture isn't very good at all but, for me at least, this is better than just having a white box with plain text.
This is how it looks between the other correctly themed systems:
-
Here is my Nintendo GameCube edit. I have to say, this came out better than expected! I'm pretty happy with this one. Hopefully someone else can use it as well :) Maybe I'll try to re-edit the Amstrad one to get a better logo in... I'll see... still got a few systems left to iconify :)
-
Here is my edit for the AtariST system.
-
@Planetdune These pngs look great. Have you thought about making one for the Solarus engine?

I'm focussing on the systems I don't have images for, sharing them as I go :)
-
This is based on the Creativision art that was posted long ago in this thread. It wasn't complete so I finished it up in the traditional style.
-
Probably my last edit for a while, the jaguar..
-
Did one more, the Supergrafx
-
@Planetdune These look so good!! Any chance of a TurboGrafx-16 CD? Actually on that note, what consoles are missing at this point, and how can I help lol
-
So I decided to try making it myself, I think it turned out ok, its basically just a recolour of the PC Engine CD Icon. I made the Logo's for this and the SuperGrafx as well. Hopefully they fit in style-wise ok!
-
@Brent_Hamel Very nice :) I think the big ones missing are the more modern stuff that do have emulators, the Wii, the PS2 and even the PS3 emu is coming along at rapid pace. Oh and the Saturn I believe, would need to check but have a mental note on that system so I'm guessing it is MIA.

is it possible to theme the main menu and options menu in emulation station?
I really want to use the snes mini theme but whenever I press start it completely breaks the look and feel.
if not can you open a github request to allow main menu and options menu theming?
-
There are a few more issues I have found since posting this.
- The boot screen for this doesn't fit the theme at all something about the retropie project
- There is no Love2d box art

RetroPie's version of EmulationStation doesn't allow themes for the options or menus. The theme also doesn't provide any help message theme info, so you should disable the help system from the options to get a consistent look and feel.

@Planetdune and @Brent_Hamel thanks for sharing your icons :)
