[RETROPIE THEME - PORT POSIBILITY] Cardboard Mini NES + Nes mini and Famicom mini themes

[ruckage]

Hi,

I was waiting for some changes to be added to recalbox so that I can port the theme correctly (carousel improvements for example) - have those changes been included in the latest version?

[voljega]

@ruckage nope

[SuperMagicom]

@ruckage They still haven't fixed the WSOD bug in ES either. Once that's sorted I'm sure we'll be seeing a lot of nicer themes on Recalbox.

[Gaetan]

@supermagicom what is WSOD ? Sorry for my unknowledge

[SuperMagicom]

@gaetan White Screen of Death. If you have a heavy theme and a lot of systems it will cause EmulationStation to become unsable. Retropie fixed it a long time ago but Recalbox still has the issue marked open.

Amazing!!

I'm trying to build a theme inspired by Super Mario All Stars game menu. Something simple like 6-pak theme inspired by Sega catridge that I found here. Any advices to a starter?
Waiting for Ruckage' theme. Awesome work with Retropie.

@lackyluuk what unreleased changes are you talking about ?

[Substring]

@gaetan what ruckage has been expecting for months

[Gaetan]

@substring Are you talking about the white barre in the carrousel ??
i'm keeping my breath and crossing my fingers

[ruckage]

@substring
Fingers crossed they'll be added soon.

Yeah, the main changes I would need are the carousel customisation. Assuming its the same as on Retropie you can customise pretty much everything - position, bar height, bar width, bar colour, orientation (horizontal or vertical), Icon size, icon scaling factor, etc.

@ruckage that would be a gamechanger for theme bilders
I hope soon is soon

@ruckage Hi,

Theming enhancement are coming really soon with carousel and much more.

I already worked on your theme (just structural changes, not art) to adapt it but won't release. What I can do is provide you the files so you can have a look.

[Gaetan]

@supernature2k i would be very interessted on having this file too. It could certainly help me to prepare the next version of the Next Level theme.
How could you send it ?

[supernature2k]

@gaetan Information coming really soon

[jrochagouveia]

any news about the theme with recalbox new version?

[Substring]

I guess @ruckage needs some time to port his theme as the release is not even 1 day old ! The new theme format we made is now very light, it.s a good idea to read the documentation (see link in the blog) and ask @supernature2k for some help as his the one who wrote all that over months

[jrochagouveia]

I agree with you... I'm working in a theme inspired by super mario all stars but I'm just a beginner. I'll send some news. Great new features in this recalbox version!

[ruckage]

Sorry for the late reply, now the changes are implemented I'll get to porting the theme. You'll have to give me little time.

Thanks, if you can send it to me I can have look to see what changes you made. I'm planning to re-format the theme but that would be helpful to show me how the new features work.
