add custom system logo help

[ian02293]

i edited the es_systems.cfg file and added

<system>
    <name>fighting</name>
    <fullname>street fighter collection</fullname>
    <path>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/nes</path>
    <extension>.nes .zip .NES .ZIP</extension>
    <command>/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ nes %ROM%</command>
    <platform>fighting</platform>
    <theme>mame</theme>
</system>

currently ignore this line in the code above

<command>/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ nes %ROM%</command>

am only trying to get the logo to show up,i added few roms and the logo shows up as mame logo with the roms i added inside of the folder.

i added fighting folder in /etc/emulationstation/themes/ with the custom png and inc folder

@ian02293 Try replacing

<theme>mame</theme>

with

<theme>fighting</theme>

@ian02293

You must use a theme as a base, different themes have different layouts. You could either study the .xml of the themes or try replacing some of the assets for one of the systems you don't use.

<theme>virtualboy</theme>

change this to the name of the themes system subfolder that you either replace or add.

Hope that helps, the hard part is in the different unknown theme layouts

i will try adding <theme>fighting</theme> hope this works.
currently the home theme is set to carbon so do i change anything in emulationstation\themes\Carbon\theme name\FILENAME.svg.
