    New version, this one has some pretty big improvements and features. v2.2.1 Added new Xbox 360 Metro Style Theme Note: "Microsoft Xbox 360" is Blades, "Xbox 360" is Metro. Name your Platform accordingly. The Platform Logo Intro no longer replays when exiting from the Game Details Screen back to the Dashboard. It will reset if you exit the Dashboard back to the Platforms View, so it will play again when entering the same platform again. Added a generic Wall view that can be used for all platforms. Note: Nintendo Wii is using Wall View 2 for the alternate Video view. Additionally, the Game Details Screen will be the same themed one you'd usually see for each platform that has one.

    I'm not familiar with the mobile version of launchbox and I don't know if the bigbox themes work or are compatible with it unfortunately. Sorry.

    Hello @Magno! Thanks for checking out my theme! What’s the exact version of LaunchBox you’re using currently? I’m currently on 13.6 and have not updated past that as of this moment, or updated the theme since 13.6, so it may not be compatible with the newest LaunchBox release.

    Happy to help! Let me know if that works for you or if you have any questions regarding how to run it, etc.

    To assist with adjusting the volume of the Background Music for the theme, I've created a PowerShell script which will allow you to adjust the volume however you like! Feel free to check out the post here:

    To make this process easier, I've written a PowerShell script that will update the audio values automatically for you! You'll want to make sure the path for $rootPath is set for your LaunchBox install, and then set the $newVolume value to any value between 0.0 and 1.0 (such as 0.1, 0.3, or 0.7), then open PowerShell and run the script with .\adjust-theme-volume.ps1 I've attached the script and I'll also include it in this post as well. # Define the path to start searching for files $rootPath = "F:\LaunchBox\Themes\Mini Consoles Theme\Views" # Define the file pattern to search for (e.g., *.xml, *.config, etc.) $filePattern = "*.xaml" # The regular expression to match and replace the Volume value $regex = '(<commc:UCAudio [^>]*?)Volume="[^"]*"([^>]*>)' # Desired new volume value $newVolume = '0.5' # Find all files recursively under the specified path $files = Get-ChildItem -Path $rootPath -Filter $filePattern -Recurse foreach ($file in $files) { # Read the content of the file $content = Get-Content -Path $file.FullName -Raw # Check if the file contains the matching pattern if ($content -match $regex) { # Replace the old volume value with the new one $newContent = $content -replace $regex, "`$1Volume=`"$newVolume`"`$2" # Save the updated content back to the file Set-Content -Path $file.FullName -Value $newContent Write-Host "Updated volume in file: $($file.FullName)" } } Write-Host "Processing complete." adjust-theme-volume.ps1

    To manually adjust the volume within the theme files themselves, you'll need to edit the actual XMAL files for the themes to adjust the volume level. Within the LaunchBox\Themes\Mini Consoles Theme\Views\ directory, you'll see folders for specific views. Some consoles use certain views, but we'll use Playstation 2 as an example. Go into the HorizontalWheel1GamesView folder and edit the Sony Playstation 2.xaml file. Within that file you'll want to look for "Volume" and make sure it's attributed to "UserDefinedAudio1audio". The line will look something like this: <commc:UCAudio x:Name="UserDefinedAudio1audio" IsMuted="False" Volume="0.1" Repeat="True" > You can modify this for whichever themes you like. Hope that helps!

    On this page, you'll see "What's New in Version 2.1.5" and a "See Changelog" right next to it. When you choose another version, it'll have a download link at the bottom of that section after the Changelog Notes. Hope that helps!

    The music has been a long going discussion in terms of theme development. When I have time I'll need to look into the newer LaunchBox music implementations and see how I can utilize them and if it'll work as I expect. They were a bit loud before so had lowered them. If you download an earlier version of the theme before that change you should be able to find the original volume files, or you can adjustment manually.

    Hey @Boomerps2! I get notified of replies so you don't have to comment in different places, and I'll certainly reply when I'm able.

    Hello @Boomerps2! You'll want to make sure you have Game Details Screen enabled, so once a game is selected it goes into the Game Details Screen where music is not playing, then goes into the game from there. If that's currently how its configured then its possible a recent update to Launchbox changed how audio is handled.
  14. Saieno
    Sure you can replace any of the music in BGM with any other music you'd like, most of the music is named exactly for what its for; so if you're familiar with the music then that should be easy enough to replace. The music is unique to each platform, either straight from hardware generated or from games that are iconic for the system. But hopefully that helps!

    Heya @rollinalong Just wanted to follow up! Were you able to delete the music you didn't want alright? Thanks!

    Absolutely! There's a BGM folder that contains all the music, feel free to remove whatever you like.

    Thanks for the great comment @rollinalong You're absolutely right that the audio has been a pain point and the options for handling it is very limited. From a theme developer perspective its either have it or don't. There's no way for a user to change volume for the audio and with videos theres no way to have one take priority of another, and its something I'm trying to work with launchbox to address. Thanks again for your feedback and glad you're enjoying the theme!

    Oh interesting! I guess the button for changing the view which is usually V wasn’t mapped. Maybe due to an international keyboard? Not sure but glad you got it resolved!

    Are you running launchbox on an external drive by chance? There was a post in this thread that had a similar issue and it seemed to be caused by a known issue regarding external drives and LaunchBox.
  22. Saieno
    @Pupik Yeah that looks correct, and the platform appears to be named correctly within LaunchBox. I’m surprised you’re having trouble with it. The theme should be 1.43GB so maybe it only partially downloaded?
  23. Saieno
    @Pupik Can you show the theme folder directory path? It should look something like LaunchBox/Themes/Mini Console Theme/ and should not have another /Mini Console Theme/ folder within it. You should see Fonts, Images, Media, Plugins, Sounds, Videos, Views, etc.
  24. Saieno
    Hello @Pupik Does Nintendo Wii show up in LaunchBox? Can you provide a screenshot of the platform in LaunchBox and how it is named? I’m having trouble understanding where you’re having the issue. Nintendo Wii would be set to Wall View

    New release. v2.1.4 Added long requested alternate views (Horizontal Wheel 2) for Nintendo Switch and Sega Saturn with Long Box Art. Sega Saturn is region based and intended for just the Box Art images and not Box Art that contains images including the case itself. North America - Long Plastic Jewel Case Europe - Black Edge Long Cardboard Box Japan - Small Jewel Case Updated 'Not Supported Views' to account for the additional Horizontal Wheel 2 views for Nintendo Switch and Sega Saturn. Cleaned up Xbox 360 blades Game Title length and position to prevent text overlap with the blades when browsing games.
