gameOS version 1.0 finally released [Pegasus Frontend Theme]
-
@rudpassos I used Skyscraper to gather the media, but I had to make several modifications first because using the metadata from ES does not deliver optimal results.
I had to convert the emulationstation systems file the es_systems.cfg that can be done with the page's metadata converter, but I recommend not using the metadata converter with the gamelist of each system because the syntax in one of the words is incorrect .
Skraper's problem is that it creates an image that mixes the boxart, the screenshot and the logo, but I'm not sure if it will be possible to separate these images into different folders, because pegasus uses almost all of them.
Skyscraper does the same, but it is possible to modify how it will handle the images and tell it to leave them separated in each folder. It also creates the metadata file for pegasus correctly, so it is not necessary to convert the gamelist from ES.It sounds complex, but if you read the skyscraper guides it is possible to deduce it. Anyway, if you want to do it this way, I can tell you what to do, step by step.

@patomax I found a solution (almost by a miracle!) for this issue in this video.
It worked really well for me (dispite sometimes that I need to make some adjustments in the code by hand) and now I have this interface working fine (finaly! :D)
Thank you very much for the advice, anyway! Count on me if you all need something.
Greetings! -
@rudpassos thanks for that. I had the same issue as you so I have been following this.
I gave up on this awhile ago. I guess I'll have to give it a go now with your find
-
@exarkuniv Great! I'm happy to help in some way!
-
I am new to this so forgive me if this is a simple answer. I am on a raspberry pi 4B and no matter how many times I run the scraper (skyscraper, I don't have access to Skraper) the game icons are still just the game name. Please help me.
-
@goman60 Have you tried the solution posted above by rudpassos? Sounds like you may have the same problem he did.
-
@playingkarrde It looks like that user is on Windows, the software he used is available for linux, but it requires WINE and x86 architecture, which raspberry pi does not support.
-
@playingkarrde I tried to use wine and box86/qemu, but to no avail. Is there anyway I can manually add the image files needed in the xml?
-
@playingkarrde Update: I got Skraper to work in a windows VM on my Mac, I then transferred the files over, but the background for the games still doesn’t show up.
-
@goman60 Hmm ok can you post your lastrun.log, an example collection txt and also, for a sanity check, does any art show up in the default theme?
-
@playingkarrde The images do show up in the default theme, I can post the file contents when I get back to my pi.

@playingkarrde I do not have any collection files, all my content is generated by EmulationStation and Retroarch.
-
@goman60 Oh EmulationStation won't scrape the files necessary for gameOS. It needs:
- video (technically optional)
- screenshot
- fanart
- box 2d
- wheel
EmulationStation doesn't get the wheel or video which is why they aren't showing up. I'd recommend scraping all your games on PC (I'm only familiar with Windows but I believe Screenscraper on Linux allows you to get more. It MAY be possible to get them with the Pi version of Skyscraper but you'd need to check with them how to do that as I've not used it).
-
@playingkarrde Thank you so much! I have the art working now!

Maybe you all can help me. In the first screenshot here, it shows the "gameOS" logo with a video (or something) playing behind it on the homepage. I want mine to replicate that. Mine seemingly loads my most recently played or favorite games and puts them in a carousel/slideshow. Is there a way I can disable this?
