  1. These are real nice Pademonium, thanks for sharing!
  2. These were all made in "text view", just like Coverbox. I don't believe it's possible to use clear logos in text view.
  3. I think I see the issue with those. I had them inside a extra folder, sorry about that. I re-uploaded them, they should work now. If not, let me know. I will look into those sometime today. I built all these with CTC 3.2 and that might be the cause of the startup/pause issues, actually, I know it is. I never went back and rebuilt all these with the newer CTC version that fixes those issues. That will take me a minute, I know in this version those views still need a bit of work. I'll have to grab the older 3.1.5 version of CTC (as thats what I made these with) and re-publish each theme, zip up all the stuff, and re-upload them all. It's Saturday, the best day. I usually spend most of the afternoon with the family, got the pool up and clean, and I am on camera/lifeguard duty while the kids play fast and loose jumping into the pool. I will be busy with that for most of the day, but I will find time to get that fixed up sometime later tonight hopefully. EDIT: Turns out I had some time before all the chaos, I re-uploaded all the themes, and pause/startup themes. I tested with SNES theme and all seems well. Hope that fixes your issues.
  4. thanks for reporting that, it was missing the whole part2 from when it was split on Patreon. I fixed it, you should be good to go now. If you notice any more just shoot me a msg I'll take care of it.
  5. Nostalgic Memories - Platform Themes View File DESCRIPTION: Hello everyone, I spent the last few weeks working on a new style for my platform themes, previously known as Coverbox Fragments, which is based off of Faeran's Coverbox. It's a series of individual platform themes based off of actual console bios/menus. I had first planned to just start where I left off with it and make new fragments for it, that later changed as I felt the need to do more than I did before. I always wanted to make use of all the views, instead of binding myself only to the text view. So, I have a proposition...I want to redo them all in this new style. Knowing that I would have to rebuild the fragments when CTC 3.2 came around was always a thought in the back of my mind. Why wait I say, sounds way more fun to make them all again from scratch with CTC 3.2. Now I can create more views than before, implement the new features of CTC 3.2, and push BigBox to its limit. I decided on a new project name since it isn't focused on one view anymore, i named it Nostalgic Memories because that's what this project reminds me of the entire time I'm making them. I had a lot of fun making this first one, I'm excited to start on another. I plan on making one of these for each platform, I will always use the coverbox fragments style for the text view with all platforms as I did before. NOTE: CTC 3.2 is still being worked on by y2guru, you may notice a few things that aren't all the way finished because of that. Don't worry, I check Dave's Patreon page everyday for updates, as soon as they come in I'll be sure to update them. Marquee view, and animations on the shutdown view are still being worked on. It will be fixed when CTC is updated, the shutdown screen animations I may have to redo I feel that's a error on my end that I can't figure out. As usual, it will take me a day or so to get this looking real nice. Once I do it's off to the next platform, be sure to stop by my patreon and vote, its free. VIDEOS: FEATURES: Remastered Coverbox Fragment Text View in all Platform Themes On-The-Fly Region Changing while browsing game list Now totally rebuilt in CTC 3.2! Custom Startup/Shutdown themes for each platform Custom Pause theme for each platform Loaded with more custom metadata options Many new views! Detail on detail on detail. Official UI sounds for the menus COMPLETED PLATFORMS: 2 Sony PlayStation Sony PlayStation 2 Current Platform: Tell me what project you want me to work on next Help me decide which platform to do next! Progress Updates are posted on Patreon, all posts are public. INSTRUCTIONS: Copy all files into Launchbox folder. The "StartupThemes" folder is recommended, but optional. Install if you wish to use the custom startup/shutdown screen. The "PauseThemes" folder is recommended, but optional. Install if you wish to use the custom pause screen. The "Plugins" folder is optional, it contains 2 files from CTC that allow you to use the Startup/Shutdown themes in LB. The "Images" folder contains Developer and Publisher logos and should be installed. NOTE: Be sure to enable "Remember Separate View Per Platform" in the BigBox settings. NOTE: These themes are designed to be applied to your game list, creating the feeling of entering the consoles menus to browse your games. METADATA REQUIREMENTS: In order to use some features in this theme, you must have correct metadata filled out in Launchbox. Here are some of the fields that I used. -Region (United States, North America, Europe, United Kingdom, Japan) -Release Date (used for proper ESRB/PEGI/CERO by years it was used) -Developer & Publisher Fields should be condensed to 1 company. (games with multiple company's wont display the logo) MEDIA COMPATIBILITY: SONY PLAYSTATION: SONY PLAYSTATION 2: -Publisher & Developer images need to be installed for Developer/Publisher logos to display. more Publisher Logos will be added in the future, I made a post for it HERE CUSTOM OPTIONS: VIEWS: SONY PLAYSTATION: SONY PLAYSTATION 2: Some of these views are only included in the Patreon Edition version of my themes. Don't worry, I didn't put my best views behind a paywall. The Patreon Edition contains extra views for niche and obscure addons for platforms that most people don't even have in their collection. I will always include my best views for free, the extra views for my supporters are my way of saying thank you to them. Each theme has a custom credits view that has no use aside from that. I use Vertical Wheel 4 for that always, you can exit by changing to another view. SCREENSHOTS: SONY PLAYSTATION: SONY PLAYSTATION 2: PATREON: Ah, Patreon. Where do I start. I know some people don't like that I started one, and put fragments behind a paywall. I am here to make that right so the fragments are now free, hope that ends that. I also know that some of you want to help, but don't have a way to buy me stay up late drinks. I will be clear that I'm not out to become a Patreon hero, so don't expect that of me. I believe that if you put effort towards balancing everything out, everybody can be happy. In that regard, I set it up in a way that I thought would make everyone happy. For people that hate the idea of buying anybody a coffee, I provided you with what I did before with way more content, and new views! For people that like to buy others coffee, I have provided you with a means to do so and a special edition with extra views. Equally, both sides get something special, I believe this is the best way. Now that's all said and done, I changed up the Patreon a bit and plan to do so a bit more. I like to hear from everybody so the poll is now public, comments will be public, etc. I like to know what kind of views you guys want added, help me with assets, anything. I love ANYTHING gaming related, including hearing from others that share that same passion. Don't be shy, stop by and help me make the best themes I can.

  7. Publisher & Developer Logos View File This is a collection of publisher/developer logos that I use in my themes. With some help from Faeran, I now have a way to load them from one location instead of including them in every platform theme I make. Most of these were pulled from Faerans Coverbox theme, after adding quite a few more from my personal collection we are left with this. I plan to update this in the future, I post them here in the meantime just in case another theme dev wants to add these into their theme. FOR THEMES: If you want to add these to your own theme using CTC, but don't know how, drop these xamls into your themes "User Source" folder. Add a new user source element to a view, and select the proper xaml. They wont show until you build the theme and load up bigbox. It search's LaunchBox\Images\Publishers for the logo, and displays it. Right now it only works if you have 1 company listed in the metadata.
