[RELEASE] Theme Zoidian

[azvarel]

Hi guys,

I always enjoyed simple themes, without much color and the zoid theme always caught my attention, so I had a lot of zoid headaches, it did not work on my 40 "TV, I decided to do a re-reading of it, adapting to its functioning for the Recalbox 4.0 and Zoidian renamed it

The theme was based on simplelight and what I did was eliminate the synopsis and increased the field of boxart / screenshot repositioning some elements. I intend to one day do more themes, but for now the one for me already answers my requests.

GameBoy

Nintendo

Super Nintendo

and others

Amstrad CPC / Atari 2600 / Atari 7800 / Atari Lynx / Atari ST / FBA / Famicom Disk System / GameBoy Color / GameBoy Advance / Game & Watch / Game Gear / Genesis / Master System / SG-1000 / MSX / Nintendo 64 / NeoGeo Pocket / NeoGeo Pocket Color / Odyssey² / TurboGrafx 16 / TurboGrafx CD / Mame / NeoGeo / Playstation / PRBoom / Sega 32X / Sega CD / Vectrex / VirtualBoy / Wonderswan / Wonderswan Color (Other consoles images I will gradually add)

Mix of consoles and cartridges for the bookmarks background.

Can you change the image of the SNES ntsc version for the pal version?? People from Europe will appreciate it

[azvarel]

Yep, I will do in 3 versions US, EU and JP

Good theme @azvarel !! But could you make the backgrounds in full HD resolution? and I have a problem because I have the system launguage in Spanish and have problems with the games dates (Rating, released, developer...)
Thanks man

[azvarel]

@sheyk90 Thank you for liking!

I opted for the resolution 1024x576 pixels, because 1920x1080 above 10 systems the recalbox have WSOD (White Screen Of Death) I only based on the resolution of simplelight, I advise you to see this before:

@rockaddicted said in [KlassiKo Theme \ (WiP )] (/ post / 45184):

Hi, nice theme
Just an information about ES and his ram management.
If you are using full HD background, 1920x1080, be careful.
ES loads each background, in raw on his vram. So we are very limited by number of systems that can be activated in the same time in ES.
I do not have anymore exact max number in my mind, but it is something like that:

• 1080p: about 10
• 720p: about 20
• 480p: about 40/45

Once vram filled, you'll have a WSOD (White Screen Of Death) in ES.

That is why the old used theme in recalbox, simplelight, was reworked with 480p backgrounds, and we used some elements tiled and light svg in the new one, recalbox.

So until, the cache buffering is implemented in ES, be careful with your background resolution.

And I only discovered this because I had this situation https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/5340/problem-with-tv-samsung-40, long before he mentioned it.

Cheers,

very nice theme!!!!!!
What about fba and scrumm theme.?
Pages are Wite because the folders dont exist.
how to add them.
Thanks

[rockaddicted]

Great mod
When you create / modified a theme, that will be awesome to support all the systems of recalbox. By this way, we could add it on our github repository, then once we will add our download manager in ES, these themes will be available for everyone.

The system list can be found here : https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-themes#systems-list-to-support-

[azvarel]

@GRALLEC I will be adding the other systems still this week, lack of time and my project snes was bad enough.

[azvarel]

@rockaddicted The idea is just this, to use in the recalbox like everything, this week will be making available the rest.

[GRALLEC]

@azvarel thanks a lot for your job and your sharing

I downloaded and installed it last night (the US version). Looks great and I like it a lot! The only odd thing I see is that FBA_libretro has a "CAPCOM" logo (FBA does so much more than just Capcom games).

[azvarel]

@stet Yep, this is a craze of mine, I put in the fba games of cps and neogeo, other arcades in the mame, but I will solve this soon, I will put an extra file for logo and background in fba_libretro to choose

---

There is little to complete the systems that were missing, my biggest difficulty is for the lutro and moonlight that I know nothing of what it is. (I glanced superficially at the two of them, but I could not figure out how to do them.)

[makination]

Waiting for the version with all the systems, muito obrigado!! Will you add Dreamcast and PSP?? There will be available on 4.1

[azvarel]

Good News!

The theme is with the complete system list!

For those who do not want to see the capcom logo on fba_libretro, just change the bg2.jpg and logo2.svg by bg.jpg and logo.svg more information in the readme.txt file inside the folder fba_libretro.
