Thank you for that. Works a treat. Your help is appreciated.

Here are the screenshots of some of the theme that I have tweaked NOT created.

I am working on the other systems as we speak and will update on my progress hopefully later this evening.

Kind Regards

I recently installed this awesome theme but shmups is nowhere to be found on the list when I want to create a new custom collection from theme. Does anybody have clue why this is?

mitu

@brigane Did you maybe capitalised the collection name (Shmups vs shmups) ? In \\retropie\configs\all\emulationstation\collections you should have a .cfg file for each collection, you can check there.

Brigane

@mitu That was it. Thank you so much! :)

@chicuelo I was wondering if you knew how I might be able to get in touch with the game controller artists? I'm working on a theme, and I was hoping to be able to use their controller art in my theme.

Nice work by the way, your theme is beautiful :)

chicuelo

@setiawan You can contact them on dribbble, behance or mail just like I did and ask for their permissons

@chicuelo Any chance you could add PS3? Maybe GTA V themed...

@johnodon You could easily add Ps3, just duplicate ps2 folder, rename and change the character image!

hello @chicuelo

your theme is just awesome!!! I really really love it!

I have a question:

In UI settings theme menu i have set "video" in order to show also the video for the selected game.
It works perfectly.
But in this modality i have noticed that are shown "screenshot" image before the video is played, but i'd like to see "box art" image insted of screenshot.

Is there possibility to configure it?

Thanks

johnodon

@PittStone zip file with the necessary assets can be found here: Chicuelo-PS3.zip

Also, this is my entry in the es_systems.cfg:

  <system>
    <name>ps3</name>

  </system>

@gerry_keys
It depends on how you scraped your images, some scrapers get you a in game capture and others the box art.
Maybe you have to try changing some of this tags (currently "md_image" is working)

Image = box art
marquee = game logo
thumbnail = screenshot of gameplay that will then transition to video.

<view name="basic, detailed, grid">
 <image name="md_image">
	<origin>0.5 0.5</origin>
	<pos>0.6925 0.3915</pos>
	<maxSize>0.4167 0.5556</maxSize>
 </image>
</view>

<feature supported="video">
<view name="video">
 <video name="md_video">
	<origin>0.5 0.5</origin>
	<pos>0.6925 0.3915</pos>
	<maxSize>0.4167 0.5556</maxSize>
	<delay>1.5</delay>
	<showSnapshotNoVideo>true</showSnapshotNoVideo>
	<showSnapshotDelay>true</showSnapshotDelay>
 </video>

i have this situation in my gamelist.xml for a game:

<image>./media/screenshot/10th Frame (USA).png</image>
<thumbnail>./media/box2dfront/10th Frame (USA).png</thumbnail>
<video>./media/videos/10th Frame (USA).mp4</video>

image is the screenshot in game
thumbnail is the box front image
video is the video of the game

If i choose "detailed" view modality i can see the box art of the game (without video).

If i choose "video" view modality then i can see the "image" (screenshot in game) and after few second the video.
I'd like to see the "thumbnail" image in this modality.
Is there a possibilty?
