Background images, coming back!!!
-
I can see how there is a little room for improvement in the GBA's Nintendo logo and the bevel, but in general the current one still looks very good. Every time I see the GB (especially the screen) and GBC, I'm impressed. The first time I saw the latter, knowing nothing about this project, I just assumed it was a great photograph.
If we're okay with submitting (very polite and grateful) suggestions about the renders, I might respectfully mention the Dreamcast one. It does look nice, but the shape is a bit less accurate than some of the other amazing renders (unless it's a regional or prototype console I'm not remembering). Anyway, I wouldn't say it is bothersome in the least, and keep up the great work. :)
-
I accept all the suggestions and crítics, dont worry ;)
I know that there are systems with better quality than others,(especially the dreamcast, some Atari...), but when I get to work on this I think Ill focus on new systems and controllers, sega32, virtual boy megacd, etc...Revisit older pictures is not very appealing yo me right now.
The good thing is that everything is uploaded and anyone can try to get something better with not too mucho effort. That would be awesome!!! -

@tronkyfran Superb work!!! I've updated it. The only one missing seems to be Game and Watch, it doesn't matter I'll build it with your previous 720p image.
Good Work!! :D
-
@tronkyfran the only one missing is the Turbographix 16, this bugs me because all my wallpaper for my theme are yours and the pc engine too :P

If you ever do it I know a couple of guys who would be happy! :D

@tronkyfran Hi there, I just wanted to say a massive thank you for the tronkyFran theme.
I have created some of the missing systems background art, not sure if it's of high enough quality.
Here you go:

Thats nice!!!! Dont worry, you can reuse the images as you want ;)
I bring two more, again for game&watch(I know, I know):
Im working on TG16 right now! :D
-
@tronkyfran very nice! Glad to see you're still alive :) I'll try and update the theme on github when I get a chance
-
Just tried the Trunykfran theme for the first time and while the background images are superbly done, I run into an issue where sometimes systems have just white instead of the beautiful background image. What's the cause of that?
-
@Muddyhardcore the cause is there is no system done for then yet. Do you have examples of which ones are white?
-
It's never the same system. As I'm scrolling through the systems some will just turn white. I restart emulationstation and they come back. I keep scrolling and 2 or 3 in a row will turn white. Odd issue.
-
@Muddyhardcore update emulationstation from source and try again.
-
@herb_fargus I'll try it when I get home
-
Jesus, these are 3d renders? I was convinced they were photos! Great, great work!
-
@herb_fargus
You do mean just update the retropie setup script correct? -
@Muddyhardcore no i mean update emulationstation from source.
-
@herb_fargus
Ok I figured it out. It was in core packages in the retropie setup script. Been stuck on 89% for about 3 hours now. -
@Muddyhardcore you need to exit emulationstation before you build from source
-
@herb_fargus
I didn't do that. I went into the setup script from emulation station. What do I do now? -
@herb_fargus
Am I screwed?
