[WIP] THEME ALEKFULL (for Recalbox 18.03.16)

[Substring]

It's great that modders get their hands on the new theming possibilities

Nice job @fagnerpc by the way

Nice theme, but on the wheel mode, there's no way to manage spacing? Because there, the consoles overlap and it spoils a little visually I think.

@totalrecall The wheel images for atarist et scummvm are present, but you have to lowercase their name (atariST.png atarist.png , scummVM.png -> scummvm.png)

Woaaaah !

@nexusone13 thanks a lot ! (merci @nexusone13 )

@nexusone13 and oddyssey to o2em

[fagnerpc]

Thx for the feedback, guys ;D
I renamed the arts with uppercase and did the other 5 systems that were missing (Image Viewer, Lutro, Moonlight, Gamecube and Wii)

• Some screens (GC and Wii only available on PC)

• @tikiandskull, i've made a new system view with a simpler vertical wheel- it's the second option (Vertical Right)... looks like this:

[Juspen]

Bravo! J'adore

[BizarreTongue]

@fagnerpc Excelente thema! continue assim.

@fagnerpc
Just small text "MS-DOS" is not really MS-DOS, more DOSBOX and the name original IBM was actually more near to reality.

@fagnerpc
I anyway installed your theme, it is just beautiful ! So take the small critics just as help. In the german selection menu some special characters are missing :
"MEN" "AUSW HLEN" "W HLEN"
Sometimes white text not good visible depending of background. But I love it anyway. MS-Dos was just one dos version in the time, there was DR-DOS and some other, also some games runs under windows.

Looks really great man. I would have just one thing to say. As the system logo is already in the wheel, I find it redundant to have it on the background image too.

[Choum]

Nice theme,

You should put game sinformations texts in white color instead of grey, it's difficult to read when the background is grey/blue.

[jobic]

I love ur theme! good work. Just a question, how can i put some songs for each console?

[fagnerpc]

Hi everyone ;D
I read all the posts above and with the feedback from you I made some tweaks on the theme:

• Changed the appearance of the menu to something closer to the standard Recalbox theme;
  
• Made some tweaks on gamelist view;
• Changed the font of the menu to support some special characters;
• Added music for each system;
• New colorsets: with possibility to change the menu color font to red or white.

• I made this artwork without logo this time (and new logos for the wheel)... the dos version is still there but under other name

J'adore, juste dommage qu'il n'y ai pas le synopsis des jeux et faudrait peut être une barre en bas dans la sélection des systèmes pour rendre le texte plus lisible

[Choum]

Is it normal this white awfull background on the new version ?

[Dragu]

@fagnerpc
Perhaps too much changing ? Red text is not really an alternate for white. The problem was more that the text was partly transparent. But german syntax now ok.
PC logo is a little ugly, but I found something in your files that I cropped and adopted :

So for me, just to resume, old version was perfect, with no transparent letters on selection and correct special characters and little more neutral DOS logo.

I must also say, the sound is not an option for me, as with DAC card I cannot regulate the volume in ES. And with time, it will become nerving. So I think not really something wanted by most.

[Dragu]

The responsable for the bad reading and the missing special characters was the font Perforama.otf. So I replaced also in former version 040118 Perforama.otf by Roboto-Medium.ttf in the systemview vertical.xml, vright.xml, vrlow.xml.
And excuse for the digging in your craftwork. But its anyway best.
