Epic Noir - Dark Mode Theme
-
A small ask...Is there any chance that there will be any images for Commodore systems added eg VIC20 & Commodore 16. I only ask as I use both these systems and I have created the system folders etc but my artwork is naff. I used game images of Blitz for VIC20 and some other game art for the C16 but both looks out of place.
I have tried to find images of games like Blitz that resemble the other art work but no avail.
Please...…
Kind Regards
CCF

I love this theme, thanks!
Maybe it's just me but it crashes ES immediately on 4.6 on a Pi 4. Can't seem to find any logs so if anyone can point me in the right direction here it would be appreciated.
Also, is there a way to remove the pictures of the actual systems? :)

EmulationStation logs are in
\\retropie\configs\all\emulationstation- you can check there for errors. -

ES seems to be generally very sluggish (with Carbon) on Pi 4, which I didn't see on my Pi 3b+. Maybe something else is off... Clean install so shouldn't be anything affecting the perfomance either.
Edit: Seems the lag is related to the 4k output according to other threads, so not relevant here I guess.

@Stuffu On my Pi I have also to split memory up to 512mb and set vram to 150 mb
-
I can confirm that switching resolution to 1080p removes the issue and the theme works as intended, so if you have problems using it at all on a pi 4, it’s likely related to resolution set to 4K.

@Stuffu Great data
-
@Stuffu great to hear that the theme works fine @ 1080p.
Regarding the 4K resolution I need to say that I find it a bit extreme. Even though the Pi 4 is quite a bit more powerful that the previous Pis I have my doubts whether it can smoothly display everything. Keep in mind that as the theme was created at 1080, everything would need to be upscaled at real-time.
It might be better to leave it at 1080p and let your monitor/TV upscale the content as needed. -
@chicuelo hey mate! Your theme is the best theme I ever tried on ES. I am prepping an old notebook for my nephew to let him play some older games but I think that the artworks for then systems might scare him.
Any chance to see a version with kid-friendly backgrounds? :)

New updates and systems added!
-
Loving the new artwork!
-
@chicuelo Can you please add OpenBOR?
-
@cyperghost give me some time, I will se how many systems more I can add. Meanwhile you can add manually to avoid empty artwork!

@chicuelo Congrats ... your theme was named on a ETA Prime video as best theme ever ;) See Timestamp: 15:10

Installed this awesome theme today. Have to say thank you for your work.
Just my thoughts on the indicators. Its a great idea. For me it would have been easier if there were files named 1 to 16 (like 1.png 2.png etc) and you have to rename them according to your order.

@cyperghost Yes, I have seen the video a couple of days ago!
