I'll re-test tomorrow, but just to be sure, can you zip the theme folder form your Pie and put it somewhere where I can download it (send.firefox.com for instance) ?

Sorry, but the theme still crashes for me - I'm testing on Windows right now, using the latest EmulationStation version.

Anyone else care to give it a try and see if the theme works for them on RetroPIe ?

andreamav

thanks for your test with windows
with retropie Retropie 4.5.14 and Retropie 4.6, raspberry 3 and raspberry 4b 4gb ram, run perfectly. I used retropie distribution from official site to build img files.
Theme runs perfectly with computer with ubuntu 16.04, too.

is there a guide or site where you can debug an emulationstation theme in depth?
the --debug option does not highlight individual problems.
often from generic information.
I also tried with already published themes.
thanks

@mitu
I just found out that in the past few days .. in a moment of modification of the loaded theme, there were internet-line problems .. so probably there are not all the correct files .. that's why there were problems ..
how do you delete "all the folders of the git" of reloading everything from scratch?

I JUST TEST IT in Raspberry Pi3 - Official 4.6 Retropie.
I copied theme, setted permission 777 to folder theme, open emulationstation

i just tried an APP for Mac to manage Git.. so i would think to have refresh all files.

@andreamav Your theme is now included in RetroPie - users will have to update their RetroPie-Setup script first and then the theme will be available for installation.
