@rajbhalsod Currently there are not official versions of Retropie for the Pi4. But of course it will work when they relase it.

@SP That Button is a svg file, if you have Illustrator you can do it!

Looks incredible! well done @chicuelo & @nil06.

Really like the rating, player count and genre in the lower bar! Very smart use of the screen space

I have two questions concerning chicuelos great work:

i tired to follow the installation-instructions in the download link of the first post: "cd ~/.emulationstation/themes
git clone https://github.com/c64-dev/es-epicnoir.git --branch master" / i was asked for my "git-hub username" to continue. Do i have to register to download the theme?
After that i had a look if the Noir-Theme is alleready available in the themes-section of retropie_setup. It was not, but i saw something like "chicuelo arcade theme" in the list. Does this concern to my installed Chicuelo-Theme which is no longer available? If so, can i still update / is it worth updating (still works great, no issues)?

@sirhenrythe5th
If you have troubles downloading the theme you can manually download via web and transfer via ftp to your themes folder in
opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation/themes/ and place it there. Then you select the theme and you are ready to go.
Make sure you have installed emulation station-Dev in order to work on your pi.

The other theme on the list was my first theme, it was free to download too until I saw several people selling their pi or cabs with this theme and claiming as a their so I shutted down. This theme is free by now but it depends on peoples behave.

@Mr-Berlin I think 88 systems is quite a good and big theme don't you think? Most of the systems people use are supported so I think you can actually use it every day!
Which other systems would you like to find?

Oi.. Well, I WAS looking forward to using this theme, but now have to pass. Why is the DEV version required????

HurricaneFan

@Thorr69 I thought if you upgraded your RetroPie to the latest version using the update script, you should get all of the emulationstation fixes that DEV has.

chicuelo

@GeekOB Thanks! we appreciate feedback!

chicuelo

@cyperghost What is theme rooster?

chicuelo

@Thorr69 Modern themes take advantage of new ES features, if you don't have the latest version you won't see the theme
