  1. I imagine it may be due to larger video files or use of more images and animations. What type of PC are you running on? I've used this on a few mid range PCs with no slow downs.
  2. Unfortunately there is not a lot I can do at this point, I don't have a lot of things I can alter in terms of what could cause it from a theming stand point, there is nothing in futurestate that has not been done in other themes before. It's obvious the problem started after version 7.0 and has something to do with VLC but it does not seem to affect all users. I have not been able to replicate it on either of my 2 machines.
  3. I have updated the main download with custom skins! Currently there is just one new skin but I do plan to add more as time passes. Feel free to make custom requests and I'll see what I can do!
  4. Updated to version 3.0 last night Fixed a few bugs and made it easier to drop in a custom theme. Should have a faster performance than previous iterations. I will be planning on adding a few custom replacement skins of my own design and also highlighting a skin that Scottad has created.
  5. How does one display a system logo on the game selection screen?
  6. @Jason Carr I am looking to work on Futurestate tonight and the beta did not download the newest version of the documentation.pdf. I am running 7.1 beta 2. If you get this message soon and you could offer me a link to the pdf directly it would be appreciated.
  7. I will look at this and hopefully be able to update Futurestate soon. As a side note I noticed that VLC causes a green bar on the bottom of some videos it plays. VLC is known to cause the issue as explained in this post is explained here https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?t=130655
  8. I have had a lot of people report that the Futurestate theme has been suffering some major lag since the update. I have not witnessed it myself but asking people to turn off shadows on the wheels seemed to improve performance for some.
  9. Don't take it down, when I add it into the skin pack I'll put up a link or something at that time.
  10. Awesome to see, do you have a name I can post it under? Are you going to add a custom video as well? I am planning to release some skins over my vacation break here and will add those with it.
  11. Great! Make sure it looks good one the version I posted yesterday (link is above). I changed the theme to not set transparency to the images so when someone put up a custom theme it would look how they expected. How are other themes working? I don't see the slow down on either of my machines at this point so it is difficult to trouble shoot without others helping me. Is the theme working for you now?
  12. did you try the version I posted above? Make sure you rename the old Futurestate theme folder and then copy the link above in. Let me know if this has any effect on the speed.
  13. This is not by any means a version that is working correctly but it has shadows stripped out in places where it seemed to effect performance on my end. Please let me know if this version fixes your issues... make sure you back up your old version and place this fresh in it's place. http://forums.launchbox-app.com/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=5278
  14. I'm guessing it's an issue with shadows on the wheels. It's seems to kill performance. I'll upload a new version for you to test in a few hours.
  15. I am looking at updating the theme right away (within a few days) I'll look into this issue, I tested the theme on version 7.0 and it seemed ok. Are you using VLC or Media Player?
  16. Hey Jason, I've been experimenting with themes today and noticed system videos were now resizing based off the cell size they are contained in now, awesome. I did notice though that the alignment of the videos never really fits with the horizontal or vertical alignment. I understand this was always a problem in version 6 but am not aware if this was something you have messed around with since October till now. So, is it broken because it is something VLC does not like, am I doing something wrong or is there a bug still here?
  17. Awesome, thanks for the feedback! I am will try and re-encode the video on my next update and see how that works. In testing I came across a similar issue on a different encoding then I went with, I changed it to the current thinking I had fixed it. Guess not. As far as changing the colour of the selection bar, you are correct, my intention is to replace that in my next update as well. That being said, my hands are tied until probably next week at this point so those changes won't be made until them.
  18. So I did not have time to update everything I needed to so I will have to save the update for tomorrow. Sadly, some of the things I was planning on updating required some of the original photoshop files I created for the project and, lo and behold, I accidentally deleted them a few weeks ago. I may have to spend an hour or two recreating some of the graphics before I can do anything else.
  19. I'll be posting a small update with some alternative views tonight or tomorrow for a couple requests. I will also be fixing a few small bugs that have popped up, this release will take it out of Beta.
  20. This is the original post from before the theme was posted here is the link:
  21. I can help you guys out a little later tonight or tomorrow, basically when I get a few minutes on my dev PC.
  22. What do people think about the scan lines in the 4:3 view and clean in the 16:9? Unfortunately, it's not a feature I can just turn on and off, either the view has it or it does not.
  23. I will be doing another update next week. Please submit any bugs or requests and I will try my best to get to them. I will be adding a 16:9 Game View and updating the Games Details View and a few smaller bug fixes I missed when I went to 2.0 Beta.
  24. I would love to have launchbox ignore the windows DPI settings. Text is larger and margins don't look the same when the DPI is set to a higher rate. I myself have a higher DPI running on my HTPC. Themes are never designed with DPI in mind and either ignoring DPI or adding a setting to turn it on or off would be helpful for HTPC users .
  25. thanks for the kind words everyone. I may do one more update in a few weeks time and call this theme completed... pending any new theming features. I do plan to build 16:9 games view as well, we shall see. Again, requests are always accepted. If you do enjoy using the theme please leave a review on the downloads page.
