Requires LaunchBox 9.6.7 or above

Expect gremlins, I'm new at this

 

Currently requires 1080p resolution or equivalent (eg 200% DPI scaling at 2160p). A fix for this is in the works  FIXED! hopefully ;)

 

Todo:

  • Fix platform quickselect (favs/recent) title font
  • Fix non-displaying A-Z index bar in some game views
  • Add star rating images
  • Adjust margins on wall view (I'm yet to figure out how to do this, the spacing adjustment only seems to apply horizontally).

What's New in Version 1.0.1   See changelog

Released

Fixed DPI scaling issues on non-1080p resolutions.
(Absolute pixel values are bad y'all)

I really like the design here, however it doesn't seem to scale properly at 4K,  everything is out of place.  Hopefully this can be resolved in an update.

Ah yep I see what I did wrong. Will have a fix soon.

This theme looks really clean, I'm a huge fan of minimalist themes. Hope you keep adding to it because it's my favourite theme :D

Thanks!

Love the theme! Great work! It's become my new favourite! However, I noticed a small error. When you're scrolling through games in horizontal mode, the screenshot image occasionally doesn't rotate and it becomes "stuck", even when you move to another game.

And on a side note, how do you get the console images to appear in the middle of the screen like that? I put the images in the Device folder for Stark but the screen remains blank. I hope I put it in the right spot.

Hmm the path should be:

**LAUNCHBOX_INSTALL_FOLDER**\Themes\Stark\Images\Platforms\Device\**PLATFORM_NAME**.png

I guess double-check the filename? **PLATFORM_NAME** must match the platform name in Launchbox exactly. Failing that try the default launchbox images folder (NB: this will affect all themes)

**LAUNCHBOX_INSTALL_FOLDER**\Images\Platforms\**PLATFORM_NAME**\Device\**PLATFORM_NAME**.png

Hmm, I haven't been able to reproduce this. Mind posting a screenshot?

I have no idea. I have it named as it should, i.e. "Super Nintendo Entertainment System" and the Device folder is in the location you specified, but I can't get it to work. Is there an option in BigBox that I'm not toggling or something, perhaps?

As for the screenshot error: the screenshots will only appear in the corner if the game doesn't have an associated video file to go with it. Once that happens, the screenshot appears, and then it stays there even when moving onto another screen, but only if you move onto the screen of a game that doesn't have a screenshot attached to the view (because it has a video file playing in the background). See blow.
