Flat Theme

greekmanx

so after using this theme more I vote keep it where it is. and my only issue so far is on Sega Genesis the top left logo says nintendo and my TG16 is broke but that might be my gamelist. and then the dark theme and I am set. This is deff my new daily drive theme.

so I switched my tg16 back to pcengine and my genesis back to megadrive and they work now except pcengine is blue in carasoule like sega but says nintendo in top left logo so confused there.

@greekmanx You have to change the tags in the theme.xml.

Should be something like this

<image>./../Nintendo.png</image>
change it to this
<image>./../Sega.png</image>

I'll fix the theme later

lilbud

Dark theme is updated with video support

greekmanx

thanks lilbud will test dark now with video and will look into logo issue

lilbud

@greekmanx If you want, submit a pull request to the repository

greekmanx

so all is good now got dark mode and video is working and I fixed the logo in pcengine so all good. I am happy now just need to add more roms to my image and get over the pcengine and megadrive names and I will be all set with my image.

Has anyone tested this theme (without video) on a Pi Zero? Curious if anyone has seen issues with this theme on a Pi Zero. This theme is just beautiful and I would love to use it on my Pi cart.

Nismo

@Roxsteady I doubt you can have issues with this theme in a pi zero (if you don't use videos), it's a very light theme.

It's not so difficult to install it and try...

Roxsteady

Thanks, @Nismo I'll likely backup my image and then try it. For the images, does is split those scraper 3 part images and uses them or do you have to add new images for your games? Also, how is the installation done? I m assuming you don't go through the theme options in ES(?) or do you?

Thanks guys!

@Nismo thank you

lilbud

@Nismo I changed the height of the marquee

Nismo

@lilbud Yes I told you that you need to modify that, just because I improved your theme for video in a few minutes and I didn't want to spend time optimizing the size of marquees.

How about the marquees on top of some system logos like nes? How are you planning to solve that?

lilbud

@Nismo I really don't know, I don't use video or marquees. I might just remove marquees. Since they can vary so wildly in size, I have to watch where I place them.

Nismo

@lilbud See my tips on the post above, also I changed <size> for <maxSize> for marquees in your flat.xml that way you can adjust the maximum for a wheel art to not override anything.

Also remove them it's a good idea too, because I think wheels broke a bit the flat style of the theme.

Just FYI @greekmanx When you swap the images from Megadrive to Genesis, and PCEngine to TB16, the PCEngine/TB16 logo breaks but the Genesis logo is fixed. So I swapped back.

Roxsteady

Are you guys making changes via the github link? Just so to be sure I download the latest theme as we go along.

lilbud

@Roxsteady I believe @greekmanx is making the changes in his local copy, not to the GitHub. Not sure

greekmanx

I honestly don't know how to make changes to github I am new to this and the only change I made was fix the pc engine to say hudson instead of nintendo.

Roxsteady

@greekmanx How did you get the title logo to show at the top right for each game?
