If you can change it to something close to the 1280x720 you may find that you do not need to edit the theme for the weather location to correct for your display! B)

Love that second project! :)

Posted

Well i tried the screen down the next available which was 1280x768 and the weather icon worked. It was perfectly spaced and everything.

I will be re-installing the gameex program tonight to get the ISO mounting installed. I will let you all know if the snapshots for 32x and genesis come back

Adultery, you were right. super easy to fix the issue I had with the weather. opened the theme editor and just moved the time and date over no resizing necessary. simple....done and looking good. I really do love this theme. I have uploaded a pic showing what it looks like now. Thanks for the help

Good luck my friend! :)

And I'm glad you like it!

I got the ISO mounting part installed and working, but I still cant see snaps for 32x and genesis. the rest work great. I might have to uninstall and reinstall GameEx.....

Honestly its either a path issue or an extension issue. They're in PNG or JPEG right? Can you up a sample?

You sure the naming matches the ROM name?

Posted

I see you updated your theme, Adultery! Good. Goin' to download right now.

I'm currently using this theme for my setup... and I find it literally fanta-super-astic!

Thank you for sharing this great peace of work that remember me strongly the old-gaming feeling!

Thanks Alpha! I'm glad to hear you like it. :)

Yes, everything is named fine and matching the roms, paths are correct, and they are a mix of JPEG and PNG. When I go into the 32x or Genesis section to get a list of games, the snaps, boxes, carts, and manuals all work fine and show up. Thats why this stumps me. I will up a sample a little later today or tonight. I have my machine torn apart at the moment. I am fitting it to my cabinet right now.

Love the theme. When out and bought a xbox 360 controller to match your control layout for the NES. Could you please upload your outher layouts for the other systems.

Thanks

Sure! Do you use Xpadder? The advance keys are 'shift' functions in Xpadder and they work really well. No need for shortcuts when they're mapped to secondary functions on your controller. :)

Thanks for the props by the way... I'll up the ones I have done.

No don't use xpadder I will download it and start to figure it out.

Adding the custom backgrounds to the theme and the only one that shows up is the Gameboy Color one. In Atari 2600 for instance, in Custom Backgrounds I select Back-Atari_2600_Foreground.png and nothing changes. I have noticed that the bottom band color does change though, when I select the Back-Atari_2600_Foreground.png.

Also is it possible to add a semi transparent background to the game list box.

Posted

You don't select the foreground starbuck.

For atari 2600, you would select Back-Atari_2600.png The foreground is applied by GameEx.

Also make sure you downloaded the updated version of the theme on the first page (if you haven't already done so).

I also uploaded the controller images that go with the theme and put them in the first post. :)

Thanks pojosama! Glad you like it! :)

...and foreground...

post-680-0-48171200-1323994950_thumb.png

...a STATS screen for displaying Hi-Scores and whatnot (this needs to be in the GameEx/Media folder and will probably be overwritten every time you update)...

post-680-0-40653200-1323995042_thumb.png

...and a final version of AutoUpdate1.

Enjoy!

Had to fix up stats.png. It was hard to see the black text over the BG I made. Hopefully this works better for ya. :)

Thanks guys! I still want to do some work on the new view, but I haven't really been motivated to work on it.

Anyone know why my MAME list reverts to bak.png instead of MAMEBak.png? Does this happen to everyone or do I just have a naming issue somewhere?
