[Recalbox 9] Thème Mukashi

[mrseguin]

@cameleons Super ca avance ton theme Avec paint.net ! Quand on a l habitude d un programme autant rester dessus. Avec mon déménagement j ai pas trop le temps de m y repencher et de garder la concentration j avais fait un thème daphne mais vite fait sans trop d inspiration car c est du vague et pas connu pour moi. je posterai tout a l heure une image.Pour les backgrounds faut tjs calculer la bande blanche et faire en sorte que ca gene pas pour la gamelist du background 2 et aussi pour le (futur) thème fuzion en vertical.....beaucoup de petites choses a penser car ou sinon après surcharge de boulot et je sais de quoi je parle....Parfois pour un thème entre les recherches et la mise en place,....yen a pour...un certain moment indéfini !

[mrseguin]

@mrseguin voila le premier batch que j avais fait, airdream n avait certainement pas du le voir.... le fond je me suis inspire des couleurs d un arc en ciel qu on voit parfois sur la surface des cd, dvd et laserdisc.

[mrseguin]

@mrseguin T hemes pas encore diffusés mais prévu

[mrseguin]

@mrseguin saturn c etait l ancien.....

[cameleons]

@mrseguin ha ba franchement comment dire j'adore c'est parfait pour moi, je suis preneur de ton thème daphne, moi je fais par plaisir et effectivement ca prend énormément de temp.

Bravo pour ton thème daphne car il est pas évident. Et ceux qui suivent aussi surtout la saturn qui va arrivé le thème déjà nickel super boulot.

[cameleons]

@mrseguin la saturn terrible perso je préfère ton ancien beau fond d'écran.

Les thèmes sont vraiment au top vraiment bon boulot, maintenant que je suis le temps que cela prend

@airdream I love this theme, but the wallpaper of playstation game menu seems a bit boring, do you plan to change it? More similar to the original box of psx?

[airdream]

@subvite
Yes we are planning to work again on Mukashi to add the wheel style.
@mrseguin is stronger than me for graphics software, and he is quite occuped for this moment. please wait again

[subvite]

@airdream I have taken the liberty to create a psx theme. I have taken as reference the original box of psx (black and yellow) I would like to share it and if you like, you can include it.

[airdream]

@subvite great job!!!
I like it!
For include it we need also
1- the agreement of @mrseguin who has moved internationally recently in an other country so that's why he is busy.
2- BG1 in 1080
3- BG2 in 720
4- Eventually replace the box of the console which you use for the theme
5- check about the Logos (in BG1&2) and game list in BG2, can we read all easily with the yellow part on the top?
6- Screenshot from "recalbox manager" if you can (BG1 with central band & BG2 with scrapping and gamelist)

Is it the box which inspired your theme?
Yellow is a little bit more flashy but maybe not good for police font or logo reading?
PS1 box Sony

You can also share your link here of your personalized theme (the entire theme), so everyone will be able to download it.

[subvite]

@airdream Thanks! I'm glad to know that you like it.

Yes, that is the box which I have been inspired. The yellow color is a little muted to facilitate the reading of the source.
The images bg1 and bg2 that I have included in the previous links are both in 1080.
The white fonts can be read perfectly on the yellow top (checked).
I can replace the blue box of psx dual shock with the original, if you wish. Only that it will be from another angle.
For now, I don't have a recalbox configured, but whatever you need don't hesitate to ask me.

[airdream]

@subvite thank you again.
The BG2 absolutely need to to be in 720 for save VRAM resources, if all BG2 were in 1080 a lot of glitches will appear (RPI3 have not enough VRAM), particularly if you have a lot of system in your recalbox.
We have also logo in black in the first revision of Mukashi. Black Logo is it more suitable in the yellow background, what do you think?
From the beginning we hoped that everyone who is interested to personalize our theme will do it here and share it, so that's why @mrseguin shared all tools and all raw files in first post.
Do you have worked with raw files? (See first post)
So if you can do it until the end and share it with a download link, we much appreciated. A simple BG1&2 here can also help everyone to replace original BG1 &2 from our theme. Do only what you want to do.
However you can chose better console box of your choice to replace the blue one (dual shock version), It will be more easy if you do it from raw file.

[subvite]

@airdream Yes, you can include the logo perfectly, don't worry. I have tried different sources in the yellow top, and they all work well, including pure black and pure white. (that's why I made it little muted)
Regarding bg2, I have converted it to 720 as you indicate. However, I have seen that the bg2 of the other systems are at 1080, like n64.
I have worked with photoshop, I have the file by layers, if you need it you can ask me and I upload it too.
I upload the corrected files (Original box and Bg2 in 720), so you can check them out and download if you wish.

@subvite Hi Guys, So as AirDream said I moved recently and I'm still waiting for my shipment , internet at home,....So should be fixed end of this month and I will go back to mukashi theme.To include or not in the "official" build well I'm not against it but everybody has his own preferences...That's why I include all the programs I used like this everybody can customise the theme.
As for me I followed most of the time AirDream artistical point of view because first neither I don't have particular design or artistical skills nor very good technical skill with programs that's why to create this theme was...long...and because we changed so many time our point of view...
I grew up only with intellivision, msx, atarist and amiga...later got saturn and psx but I was still more playing amiga games So to get inspirations you need to be in love with your systems ! But as I said nothing is universal in terms of taste and colours...welll

[airdream]

@subvite thanks again!!

I tried it on my RPI and it looks very good,
This what it look with logo and gamelist, so white logo and gamelist font are matching with the BG

Very authentic design and spirit of the first run ps1 package (before dualshock)

J'ai téléchargé le theme hier, très bon boulot mais pour FBA Libretro ça affiche Capcom (et des jeux CPS)...
Il y a un background FBA?

[airdream]

On était parti du fait qu'on mettait uniquement les jeux CPS1 CPS2 et CPS3 dans Fbalibertro.
Les autres jeux arcades sont dans MAME, et Néo Géo dans son propre dossier et thème.

En effet ça ne convient pas a celui qui utilise FBALIBERTRO pour tous jeux Arcade, faudra dans ce cas éventuellement en faire un.

@airdream
Ok je comprends mieux. Pas très grave, si y'a une maj je la prendrais

[Benny]

@airdream Je suis de retour par ici après 6 mois d'absence (j'avais le theme en version beta) et bien chapeau pour le thème il est magnifique !

Je ne sais pas si daphne sera inclus dans une prochaine MAJ, (c'est le seul système qui me manque dans ma collection ^^ ) mais prenez le temps qu'il faut surtout

[airdream]

@benny merci pour ton avis encourageant sur Mukashi.
Malheureusement @mrseguin n'a toujours pas internet chez lui, son déménagement (international) n'a pas été simple.
L'objectif de rendre Mukashi avec la carousel est toujours présent, soyons juste un peu patient car c'est surtout @mrseguin qui fait le gros du travail.
