      this theme is amazing.. thankyou very much @ruckage ...

      i have two sugestions.. some system should get a new background image.. some are simple boring next to others.. like nes and atari.. just plain boring color.. next to master system and mega drive. they look ugly

      and the other sugestion whould be a set of borders to use as overlay to match the theme.. it whoukd make the retropie look even better

        I need help setting up a custom layout.

        I am messing with 4x3setup.xml (for a 4:3 CRT monitor) and I can't get it done like that:

        alt text

        I don't need the "rating/played/player" bar at the bottom of the artwork, I'd like a single "genre" banner instead like in the mockup I made above.

          Will PSP Minis be added as a separate system?

            @johnodon He's said a handful of times he had no plans for separating them.

              Quick question: Loving the theme, nothing but amazing work. I'm using the NES mini theme, trying to get the SNES logo to the USA type. I found the folder that has the proper files in it, thought I'd be able to edit a config file to make it US type.

              Is there something I'm missing to use the purple colored SNES logo vs the JP/EUR one?

                Just rename the folder :)

                  Hi ruckage!

                  Thanks for your theme it is wonderful.

                  Is it possible to add background music to the main menu?

                  Are you going to update this theme?

                    Just re-name the image files in the folder, currently there is no option to change it from the config file.

                    There are no built in was to add music but the are ways it can be done, see here: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/347/background-music-continued-from-help-support/44

                    I will update the theme but I've just been busy, I have a few other themes I also work on as well as my own projects and recently have had no time with Christmas coming up.

                      @matchaman Hey there, I'm trying to do the same thing (rename SNES) and it's not letting me change anything. I'm getting permission denied and all that. I'm trying to find how to fix it all, but I'm losing the thread. Is it easier than I am making it out to be?

                        You probably don't have permissions, you need to modify files as root.

                        Here are some basic instructions:

                          @malixx could you remake your splashscreen with a louder sound? It is awesome as it is but it sounds a little muted on my pi compared to the UI sounds and I want uniformity

                              @darklordzach Hmm. I am genuinely curious why people ask for these systems that aren't playable on a Pi...

                                @hyruleslink There may be support for these systems under the win version of ES.

                                    These systems are not a priority as they are not supported by retropie.

                                        @altieres-lima What font/templates are you using for those? Would like to throw together a few for systems (SuperGraphx, Scumm, TGCD) that are on the to do list as a temporary fix.
