@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????

@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!

@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

As far as features are concerned, I think the stable should be pretty much on par with the dev version, there have been a few fixes for the Grid view that are not yet part of the stable branch.

@Thorr69 just give it a try and see if it works.

@chicuelo It is a selection of themes inside ES Main Menu. So users can easily install. Batocera-linux is full compatible with RetroPie themes.

Wow! This is great work! Thanks!

Wonderful. Thanks for the great work!.

@cyperghost Yes, the idea is to allow this theme runs under es menu, but its not uploaded on my GitHub so we have to wait to Nik to make a pull request

cyperghost

@chicuelo I assume you did not understand ;) It's already added. BATOCERA is annother retro OS. You can consider its capabilites between RECALBOX and RETROPIE.

chicuelo

@cyperghost Yes, I know batocera, but who and how was added the theme on batocera?

I updated the core packages to the latest and installed the theme. It works (mostly).

Nick has made the pull request already.

It should be merged to the main RetroPie project soon and it will be available through the es menu. :)

Please note that this is for the 16:9 version of the theme. If anyone wants the 4:3 version they need to get it directly from the link in the 1st post of the thread.

Enjoy! :)

@nil06 thumbs up!

@chicuelo It's selectable inside their ES-theme rooster as additional download and it works very good there.
