@darknior Hopefully when the Pi 4 is released all the problems will disappear. Looking forward to it !
If it solve the problem ok, i already plan to buy one :)
But i'm not sure because it is not a PI3 memory or processor problem if i understand fine, it's an ES memory program issue.
I don't try it on PC, but i read that with 16Go de RAM there is the same issue :(
Why do you think PI4 will solve this ?@nj180grados said in RVGM (Retro/Retropie Video Game Museum) Theme in development:
I am Spanish and could help you translate the texts from English into Spanish if you do not have someone in it.I have the help of my sister who has an almost native level of English.
Excellent, it can be really cool to have the theme in Spanish :) It's ok for me for sure ;)
If you want to contact me privately, for all the details.
How ? No PM here ... Write me on GIT, open an ISSUE for Spanish translation ;)
For example, in the console selector just in Sega Master System, I noticed that the logo of the console is the original of the Master System I, I would like you to add the logo of the Master System II as you have done in Playstation where I have I saw that you have the PSX logo and PS One both designs. In this aspect I would like it to be more homogeneous.
You already have them in SMS, I have put the 3 versions, SMS1 SMS2 and Japan first version. But i made one photo for each one.
You are right, by default i will add one with the two versions on same image.
We can do same for Megadrive 1 & 2.Then finally I would like to enter the name of the consoles in USA and EUR for example in Sega Genesis I would like you to add some text right next to the letters of the logo where it says something like this:
Sega Genesis also known as Sega megadrive, that is, a small text next to the logo. I would also like to see it on Turbograft also known as PC engine.Nintendo Nes also known as Famicon etc, Super NES also known as super Famicon etc.I don't understand fine... you want to add also known as right, before the other name of the console ?
Because i always write in first the good name, and below the other names ... but i don't write "also know as" because i will not have the place for it every time. And i don't want to write it some time and some other no :( -
@darknior Great, I'm glad you have it in mind so that all the consoles have all their logos of their redesigns.
As for adding the logos of the EUR systems with respect to the USA and JAP, I'll give you an example https://imgur.com/a/WFPR9 so you can see more clearly what I mean. Examples you have:
Sega Genesis - Sega Megadrive (EUR & JAP Flags)
Nintendo Entertainment System - Famicom (JAP Flag)
Turbograft - PC Engine (JAP Flag)
although I suppose there will be more consoles with the names changed.
What do you think about the idea? Would you redesign the main icon of those systems, right?
As for the translation, please contact me by private message and pass me the texts so that I can translate them.
Greetings.

Yes i will make them, SMS and Megadrive. Have you seen other console i've forgot ?
Sega Genesis - Sega Megadrive (EUR & JAP Flags)
Nintendo Entertainment System - Famicom (JAP Flag)
Turbograft - PC Engine (JAP Flag)
although I suppose there will be more consoles with the names changed.You already have all these names on the THEME. On te top of the info box.
But you are right, you can't see the different logo. You must change your theme language.What do you think about the idea? Would you redesign the main icon of those systems, right?
I will not redesign logo ... i like them alone.
But maybe when all will be done i will add a new sprite to list the other systems logo. At right, near the system list, in vertical list with the flag like you write.
I think it will be better and more beautiful.As for the translation, please contact me by private message and pass me the texts so that I can translate them.
Like i write you there is no private message here, i can't do it.
Please go to the GIT and open an issue : Spanish language
And we will work on it. -
@nj180grados If you want to play with, i have take some hours to add all the genesis consoles possible.
The two Japanese, the two for Europe, the three for USA + the Nomad.
I also add a new GENESIS gray logo, and the SMS new stuff. -
@darknior actually gave this a quick spin a few mins ago and its looking good especially with video previews running though like you said its a shame about the memory issues in ES especially when you have many systems installed

Hola @nj180grados, yo ya estoy trabajando en la traducción, y mi nivel tampoco es muy alto. Ahora estoy traduciendo los paneles de información por que no tienen mucho texto y un par de descripciones (de momento solo NES, Dreamcast y Arcade). Si quieres puedes colaborar conmigo y así se termina antes. Aquí esta el issue que abrí para colaborar, tal y como pide @darknior : https://github.com/Darknior/RVGM-ES-Theme/issues/1English:
Hi @nj180grados, i working on the spanish translation, and my english level It's not too high. Now i translate the info panels 23/5000 because they do not have much text and a many descriptions (NES, Dreamcast and Arcade). If you want you can collaborate with me and that way it ends before. Here is the issue i opening to colaborate, as requested @darknior : https://github.com/Darknior/RVGM-ES-Theme/issues/1 -
@son_link @nj180grados Thanks guys :D
It is not important ton translate the description 100% same in Spanish. I don't like some of my description write some years ago, and i will take the time to write better version. Like this week i've updated with a real good text the two AMIGA, two MSX and two PC DOS theme :) -
@darknior Any chance you can add the MSU1?
Manufacturer: byuu
Type: Game Enhancement Chip
Generation: Fourth
First Release: September 5, 2010
Media: Flash Cart
Controller: 8 Button Gamepad, Light GunDescription: Designed by byuu to be originally used with the SNES emulator bsnes, MSU1 is an enhancement feature allowing Super Nintendo games to run CD audio and video streaming. This allows for games to make use of redbook audio soundtracks and FMV sequences, much like the SEGA CD. The purpose is to deliver features to match the plans of the original SNES Playstation hardware. Over time, the MSU1 has been made available across several emulators, and also on the SNES itself via the use of the SD2SNES flash cartridges.

@duiz thanks a lot for informations and english description. For manufacturer i will be more accurate, and write "Nintendo, Sony" and like for media, there are CR-Rom first.
Yes i plan to add it later because i don't have time for the moment to work on my MSU1 set. Many many games but not all really excellent, i want to make a selection that have a real interest. If not i prefer to play on the original SNES.
I will try to add it faster.For the moment i'm working on :
- Merge the Spanish translation of @son_link and generate all the INFO files.
- x68000
New background and sprite
Update the computer photo with controler.
- Videopac G7000 new theme (better)
- Atari ST added
- Update all XML files to remove not used controller images.
- Add default image for all the TAGS with a language variable.
- Update almost all description ...
- Add 3 news systems
Supervision not supported yet by Retropie
Commodore Vic20
Commodore PET
- Update many image variant for Logo and Console : Snes, SG-1000, Genesis, 32x, etc ...
For these console & computer images, these logo, i search help if you have some of them i miss.
For exemple i have the 32x on Genesis 1 & 2, same for japanese megadrive, but i only have it on Megadrive 2 for europe.
Thanks- And i began to make a LIGHT VERSION of the theme to make it lighter, using less memory and working better on PI.
All of this at same time take me many time ... i would like to release all of this quickly.
-
@darknior A really great theme ! Thanks for all your hard work.
On Vic 20, if I may give you a suggestion, I'd use Demon Attack, Jelly Monsters or Radar Rat Race art as background as these were the most famous (or "iconic") games on that home computer.
I owned it as a kid ;-) -
@duiz ... sorry i change all you give to me, but i have made some search and for me the console is not MSU1, It's the Super Disc System. With an MSU1 chipset to add FMV and CD-Rom audio support. And i prefer describe the system and his story, not really the emulator to use it.
It's why i made an SDS theme, but i also made some MSU1 logo you can found on the system directory like ever if you want to change.
...
And then :
I use Killer Instinct because i already made this graphic stuff, and a new Killer Instinct MSU1 pack was release last week and it is really fantastic !!!
If i can found some time and stuff, i really dream to release an alternate one with Daemon Crest :p@UDb23 Thanks a lot.
I have search for stuff a little, and i think i can only work on Demon Attack or maybe Radar Rat Racer ...
It's very hard to found what i search if i don't to draw so much ... an image with a good resolution to cut the center Sprite of the theme, and a background that i can let empty of characters. I will try ;)It will be many work for me, but i finally found some good ideas for the 3 default game list : All Games, Favorites, Last Played ;)
I have PUSH a BIG part of all the new stuff on GIT ;)
Now you can try it. -
@darknior Thanks for checking the images. I don't want to create additional work for you.
As it's available on GIT, if I find time, I could try making the Vic20 background myself. If successful I'll submit it to you. -
I got some stuff for Demon Crest here

Hi @darknior

-
@mikozzz No for me it's impossible, i don't understand how is it possible to do it with my skin lol
When i will work on this "system" i will modify my XML to hide many info and make it better.
