Does anyone know how to create a theme similar to Eclipse theme for Big Box? Eclipse is a great theme, but it's heavy when loading into big box. Also, it combines all the platforms into one display, and this is great, but I also want to separate platforms. I think that separating the platforms is the best look for bigbox simply because it keeps everything organized, but I want to be able to sort or change the look of the selected platform into eclipse once inside that platform. I hope that helps to visualize my theme idea. Also, if I could sort out files based on my own personal preference, that would be great. For example, if I want to see all the games sorted by the starting letter "A" followed by the games starting with the letter "B" below on a new column and so on; or even by someone's personal favorite game like "Jimmy Favorite games", and "Mike's Favorite games" on a new column below and so on, would be amazing. To simplify my request, I want to sort out the games how I want them inside the platform while keeping the look and feel of eclipse. I made a feature request in the bitbucket, title #8527: theme and game discovery center feature. If anyone likes this idea, and knows how to create this theme, please let me know, or if anyone reading this likes this request, please go to bitbucket and search for my request and vote on it. I hope people find this topic and let me know your thoughts. If you like it or hate it. Thanks.

Yeah man, if it helps u improve this plug in. I'll submit it soon! Thanks for the help!

The re-scale image process take about 5 minutes the first time and I think it's mostly because my computer is about 15 yrs+ old. Believe it or not, my old pc can also run some of the newer games.. lol. I believe I could have somewhere around 300 games that r mostly from steam n some old pcs games. The videos I have on some of my old games are videos of when I used to stream (or tries :D) about 4 yrs ago. I have them mostly for my little cousins to view them if they get stuck playing some of my old games. Some games have only 1 video and some other games have 2 or 3 additional videos from other people playing those games in my old stream. I've also added old school strategy guides for some old games I've found on the internet, and these are my additional app for some of my games. I dont have that many, but im still building my library. I'm hoping to someday build my own arcade with new hardware, but for now, I'm trying to improve the software side of it. With that said, thank u again for ur wrk!

so this theme is great, its working perfectly fine. The only issues I've notice is that whenever I make a change in the options menu, all the images on my database re-scale every time. The other issue I've notice, is that "additional apps" doesn't show up when a game is selected even though if the feature is check on in the general options. I have many apps and videos on some of my games, its a shame i can't see this feature when i select those games. This is a great theme, I honestly think you have something great here. If you ever comeback to this I would love to know. This is a great add-on for bigbox. I hope someone someday can add more to this theme. Love the work that you did here, and thank you for sharing it with us.

Please finish this plug in!!! Also, will this plugin work per platform? Thanks.

MK11 Video Theme Trailers View File Hello everyone, I've uploaded NEW versions of my previous MK11 Game Theme. I've created Two Different versions of the original MK11 game theme, one slightly different from the other, three in total. The first Theme is the original version with two different resolution options. The second theme has new animated decals and a cinematic ending at the end with also two different resolutions options. The final video is the same as the second video with a different ending, and it also has two different resolution options as well... The videos run a bit long, so if you guys like, feel free to edit the videos to your liking. These videos features character select screen, two trailers, friendships videos, and cinematic ending (spoilers). Resolution: 1920x1080 and 720x406. Original video is at 960x498. Ending one is Liu Kang's ending, and ending two is Shang Tsung's ending. Hope you guys like them and make sure to watch them all the way to the end. Cheers and Game ON!!!

Hello Everyone, I had an idea that would be a great add-on for launchbox and bigbox. I was working on some banner for my game collections and I had the idea to animate them instead. Can any of the developers enable gif images for the front covers on both bigbox and launch box? I also notice that I'm able to load them in launchbox and they play perfectly in the edit window, but in the wall display of all the games it doesn't play. Please enable this feature if possible. Thanks.

Faeran, thanks for that update!!! DOPE!!!

Is there a way to enable videos to play in this theme banner? I want to add music to the banners so that every banner can have a different feel other than the look of it. Please let me know where I can enable this feature in this theme if possible. Thank you!

Is the PASC CE editor a software available to everyone in this community? I would really like to learn more and definitely test some concepts I have in mind! If so, where can I download it? Thanks for all the support.

I understand now. This is very cool to look at, but creating a banner for every game cld be an endless process. When I first saw this banner theme, I wanted to only use it for the platform selection screen, I thought it would look very neat! Also, after reading everyone's comments above, I tried looking for the doc./script that was mentioned, but unfortunately I cldnt find it. If this does become some form of a theme in the near future, you bet I will download it for my bigbox. Thanks.

is this theme available for everyone yet? do you have plans to release it soon? thanks.

I tried changing the back for the wallview, and I copied and pasted, edited, changed the path the the background image, and I got nothing but errors. If anyone can help me with this, I would be forever in you debt! This is really frustrating. Thanks.
