RVGM (Retro/Retropie Video Game Museum) Theme in development
-
@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

And a new better SNES too :
-
@darknior Wow.
That Vic20 page looks so cool !!
Thanks a lot!! Really appreciated. -
-
Refactor of the MSU-1 theme too with a new alternative :)
By working on this :
-
@darknior good theme I love it by cons it is very heavy and I often have white images of the problem of memory
-
@mikozzz Thanks
Yes it's the problem, but i also made a lite version with only one image by system and it's same, i try to remove transition effect, reduce image size to 720p, etc ... i try many things and there is always the problem of memory and white images.
The problem come from ES and it's really bad, i must open an issue, some one must try to fix this problem ... we have 1Go of RAM and a Quad Core !!!Life is game, just play it !

No i don't see it, i don't know this theme. Maybe it's because they have had the GRID support on the DEV branch ?

@darknior Hey bud.
I wanted to try this skin out, but I'm having a problem. I downloaded and unpacked it, but when I try to FTP it over to /etc/emulationstation/themes/, I get an "Unable to create directory [Permission Denied]" error. Seems this is one of those folders I can't actually do anything with.
Any suggestions to work around this?
Sorry. I'm still a Linux noob and the permissions always give me a problem.
-
@used2berx I don't know ... how do you upload it ?
It's a right problem, for my part i use SSH with root user.
