About This File
This theme is my re-take on the excellent Unified-Refried theme and I called it 'Unified Lives!'. The goal is to present more information to the user during game selection as well as using more graphic assets to complement the display experience. I hope you like it!
- An informative game card that shows many details of the currently selected game.
- 6 Game wheel views. 2 vertical, 3 horizontal and 1 text.
- 4 Platform/playlist views
- Single views for game and platform text views (these are necessary views)
- Marquee, box 3d, disc, cd, 3d cart and front flyer images are all used. Visibility rules determine how they appear, depending on platform and also file availability.
- Supports different aspect ratios. If it doesn't look right on yours please let me know!
- Wheel Badges for Favorite, Completed and Broken games.
- Created with Community Theme Creator 2.5
- Dynamically changing theme images based upon current platform/playlist. just like Refried.
** Rename 'background' folder to enable fanart.
** Rename the 'Devices' folder to always show a random game screenshot in platform/playlist views.
** Place your choice of fanart in 'fanart fallback' folder when game or platform fanart does not exist, a random image is chosen
** ESRB icons. If you don't want them, delete or rename the icons. The 'Not Rated' icon is renamed due to the number of titles without rating. Remove the exclamation from the filename to see it.
*** Do not overwrite previous versions of the theme, replace the folder. Folder and file structure can change between versions!

What's New in Version 4.3 See changelog
Released
Version 4.3
- Games include a secondary genre tag if it exists
- Color conditioning on Arcade Emulation status. Green is good, orange is imperfect and red is preliminary (non working)
- Color conditioning on star ratings. 4+ is Gold, 2-5 is silver and below 2 is bronze. This applies to both community and your ratings
- Last played date and count are now collapsed if you never played the game.
- Game and platform/playlist counts will appear in the status bar along with selected index number.
- Corrected an unnecessary duplication of blur effect on wheels.
- Created new box wheel template. It now moves the same as clear logo wheels. Before it was backwards! (HorizontalGameWheel3)
- Non selected wheel items have 90% opacity for subtle effect.
Please rate the theme if you haven't. Only one person ever has.
Also, if you notice something not quite right then please let me know. There is A LOT of effort that goes into not just making this, but making sure it all works as intended.
If you have an idea, let me know and if it's a good one I may be able to accommodate.
