[RESOLVED] Space Invaders HD Theme Troubles / v15.27 and newer

[smario]

While updating from 15.10 to 15.27 something happened to the way my Space Invaders HD theme is presented. The issue persists with 15.31 and I can reliably restore the old look by reinstalling an older GameEx version.

It's best described by looking at the screen shots below:

Before (15.10 and older):

After (15.27 and newer):

Probably a Change View issue. I’d happily try to Change Views but after the update the Change View option in the theme is gone as well. (I have disabled „Hide Change View“ in the Enable/Disable Features section.)

Do you make any of it? Has there been a change in the way GameEx handles themes in 15.27?

I also tried other themes, the issue does not occur with the Default themes. I also did a complete reinstall, to no success.

Thanks for any hints!

Looks like you just got background mode enabled in the setup wizard. This is a newer feature. Just turn off the setting. If it is in the theme.ini just remove it from there.

Shouldn't be in the theme as I never leveraged the feature.

I changed the background mode setting in the Setup Wizard - no success.

I then removed the line

DisplayBackgroundImage=Snap

from the theme.ini and everything is back to normal.

Thanks guys for your quick replies. As always.
