            Hi everyone,
            I'm using Recalbox 7.1.1 on a X64 laptop.
            I've understood i need to install a special version of emulatiostation to make it work on Recalbox. But i don't know how and if i can with the device/OS i use. I would appreciate a little help from someone.
            Thanks.

              @mamoles Recalbox, AFAIK, uses a builroot based Linux, which can't be modified - so you can't install new applications and their EmulationStation fork is specifically designed to work for their system. Replacing their version of EmulationStation is not feasible.
              If you don't want to use RetroPie, then you can try Batocera, I think their version of EmulationStation might be compatible with this theme and the OS is closer to Recalbox than Retropie.

                I've installed the Nostalgia Lite theme on my Retropie. So far, everything seems working fine except the Colecovision section doesn't display properly. I've attached an image here of what it looks like vs how another console that is displaying correctly looks.

                Does anyone have any suggestions for what I could do to get Colecovision to display correctly?

                    @zzackk Thanks, but I'm not sure I understand. Is this a file I need to create? Or should it already exist and I just need to add that line?

                          @GeekOB and @Frakatchoo

                          Great work on this theme! Looks amazing and by far my favorite from anything I've seen online.

                          I just built a new RetroPie on a Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 4GB and wanted to showcase the work @GeekOB did on getting this to run on a RetroPie / RPi.

                          It looked great! ... but I had some issues with it loading the background screen files for each system and it just overall ran a little sluggish for me. Looking at this thread, it seemed like I may not be the only one experiencing that.

                          I took a look and noticed the those PNG files seemed to be pretty big - each coming in (on average) over 1mb. I went ahead and compressed those images down - about 50% each and tried it again and it runs much better! Hard to tell a difference with the compression and the theme now runs much snappier on my setup.

                          For anyone else wanting to give this incredible theme a go on a similar setup (Retropie on RPi 4 B 4GB) here is a link to download the compressed background files:

                          https://drive.google.com/file/d/1I6iVnFZeEyp_lf3zU1ifcS2qAIbwhnMd/view?usp=sharing

                          Download is just shy of 50mb.

                          Simply replace the files in the /_assets/backgrounds folder and go it go!

                          Thanks again, everyone!

                            Thanks for the best theme ever for ever. I use the lite version.

                            For one System i don't have a logo. For my computer starting project: Commodore VC 20 (in america called VIC 20.

                            I uae the background from c64, because the vc 20 looks like c64.

                            But i don't get a vc20.svg
                            My drawing skills are to bad.

                            Is someone here, that can create one for me?

                            Best Regards,

                                    That's not theme issue. Theme only reads filenames or gamelist.xml. When you scrape games, confgure your scraper to add suffix to the game name (you can do this using Skraper to generate gamelist and download artwork)

                                      @zrontron Hi, I'd love to download your version but the file is missing. Could you re-upload it, please? I'd downscale the original "lite" version myself but it is also missing.

                                        Any chance someone could re-upload the Lite version again?

                                        Currently it seems to be missing from the provided link.
