theme COLORFUL bigbox theme 2.03

AngryEeyore,

Make sure you have clearlogos for them in \LaunchBox\Images\Platforms then go to BigBox, to its options (not theme options), to "Image Cache" and Refresh Platform Wheel Images

Fan-freaking-tastic! 🤩 Only problem is that I'm on Android... any chance we can get an Android-specific build?!? 🙏👏

Thanks for your sharing，I have a question, in the fullscreen mode,could I use 3D BOXES cover instead of 2D BOXES cover to show the detai while I'm selecting the game?

This is beautiful and I love it. Any idea of when the start and end themes will begin to make the rounds? Would love to see the concepts for them!

I could be missing it, but is there a Super Nintendo USA image in the hardware set? The purple/grey colored console. There is a platform video for it but no image.

Is there any chance for this theme to update with support for video marquee files? I tried to add them but they do not display. Images work fine.

Is there any way to shift the starting position of the platform images in platformwheel2 before they scroll over in CTC?  I've enclosed an example, there's an unfortunate duplicate effect that could be fixed if the original images were shifted just a little bit to the left.  Here are some examples for reference.

Will be great to see Commodore PET, Enterprise 128 and SAM Coupé!

Not at the moment. But I'm thinking of making a custom image set for the original "Platform Banner" theme. For GamesView, I recommend "Pure" by Faeran.

yes : On the theme download page, you'll find the sources to modify the theme in the Community Theme Creator.

I am currently working on the v.3 mockups  =)
I will also integrate the start and pause theme.

Yes, an oversight. I will add it for the next update

It will be difficult. On the theme download page, you'll find the sources to modify the theme in the Community Theme Creator. In the next version, I'll try to simplify everything, with the same DNA.

OK!

Hey All, can someone help me out with the 3DO it is the only console that does this its set correctly in the color conditioning but it's still showing up blue 

Has anyone else noticed the image for pokemon mini is non existent in the theme? Or is that just on my end? I'm unable to even find the image file for it in any of the archives for light or dark versions, and it's not even in the resources archive either. But there is a platform video for it. Was this intentional or am I missing something?

Anyway to get it to display the genre breakdowns when you import Mame like it does in Desktop view?

what a gorgeous theme, looks so slick and professional

Please add a Wall View for the games, I cannot live without it!

In any case, this looks fit to be on a Nintendo/Sony console, awesome work

Love this theme! Is there a US version of the Dreamcast startup screen for the platform video available?

I don't know about different startup screen. Can you brief me ?

Sure thing! There are two boot screens, NTSC and PAL. The PAL version is the one in your theme, which is blue. In the US we had the NTSC version.

NTSC

PAL

 

Nice! 🫡

Hello, first of all thank you very much for this theme. Like many of us, I consider it the best theme out there.

If possible, I would like to make a request, will it be possible to incorporate the battery and clock indicator that was added in the last Bigbox update?

Please keep updating this amazing theme🫠, would love to see the start and pause themes someday 🤩

Can't wait to see it, thanks a lot🙏🙏🙏

Hey, big fan of the theme. I have two questions if anyone knows:

1. Is there a way to display the games list of each console in a grid view for this theme? I was thinking of a left panel with 3 or so columns of game covers and a right panel with the selected game's screenshots and details.

2. Is there a way to remove right panel animation when selecting a game on the games list view? It would improve experience for me if i was able to scroll the list of games and for each selected game I would immediately see the details. Right now, I have to wait 1-2 seconds for each geme before I can view screenshot and details which adds up to a lot of time when going over a big list trying to find something to play.

Tried customizing in options but wasn't able to find a solution yet. Thank you for reading.

 

This is a very good theme but the color system is a very bad choice and inconvenient. I updated my platform video for the SNES and it took me 45 minutes nailing "almost" the right color.

North American SNES color hex : #7768aa

Hope to see an update to fix this.

Found the one for Mattel Intellivision which is broken in the theme at the moment.

Yes, you're right.
Especially as the video player's interpretation of colors can change.

The next major theme update will be a total revamp. 
There will be no more color overlays betwin image and video. So, hue variation will no longer be a major problem.

Color management will also be much simpler. If everything works as we want it to, it will be a simple text edit file.
