Something you can try is to right click the zip file, go into properties and check off "Unblock", before extracting its contents.

You'll have to give time to y2guru to get all the new stuff added to the Theme Creator. At the moment, it's only possible through coding XAML.

It hasn't. Maybe you can provide more information about your crashes.

From the looks of it, you could get away with creating a similar looking view, but there would be some differences based on the toolset that we currently have and how Big Box functions in general. It is definitely more possible than it ever was before the new wall view changes.

Looks like you are using a theme in the screenshot that probably utilizes Videos in the background. You'll want to download those videos in LaunchBox via: Tools > Download Platform/Playlist Videos

The POC - A Nice View of the New Walls View File This theme requires LaunchBox v11.10 or above. --------- The new LaunchBox update is here, and with it comes many new Big Box theming features. The highlight amongst them is a brand new Wall View. This theme showcases the new wall view by providing 2 inspired views utilizing the new Wall View CoverFlow wheel. What kind of things can the new CoverFlow wheel do? Download this theme and take a look. The views use the following artwork: Clear Logos Screenshots Background Fanart BoxArt - Front Game Videos Don't forget to set your screenshot image priority to screenshot - gameplay. Have fun. Thanks to @PlayingKarrde for clarifying that this theme is loosely based on a couple different themes from the Pegasus frontend.

Kind of sounds like you are referring Retrotastic version? It would be LaunchBox you would have to find the stable release for. The latest stable release of LaunchBox is 11.9 - Retroastic works well in this build. The current beta version of LaunchBox is 11.10-beta-6 - Retrotastic has issues with freezing due to the secondary overlay video in the platform views. Check your version of LaunchBox and see if you are on a beta release. If you are and don't want to deal with buggy beta releases, you may want to opt out of them.

oh right, that one is specifically looking for the LBDB ID, and it's more of a long winded solution to solve especially if you are going to utilize both name types. The community project files files are readily available for download. Load them into the theme creator and you can take a peak around.

Hi Layer, the only thing I can think of for a workaround, is to remove illegal characters (characters that can't go into a file name - maybe change colon with a dash) from the game's name, then adjust your image names accordingly.

Are you running a stable release or the current beta?

My 2 cents would be not to match the video to each graphic, but to match each graphic to the position of the video.

One option could be for you to repurpose the Windows background image. It's within the platform background folder. Just rename it to whatever you need.

So, the view you are using is the horizontal image logo view, therefore the text you see is an auto-generated image of text that only Jason has access to changing (unfortunately). However, you do have a couple options here: Use the Community theme creator in order to auto generate all the images that you'll need. It's a fairly easy setup and once you have it set up it will generate all your images in under a minute. Then you just place the images in appropriate playlist image folder for the theme. You can use the text list view. This view doesn't rely on the horizontal banner images.

You'll need to create your own banners, or use one of the many great ones within this community thread: BannerBox Community Banner Thread

These look really cool. If you want to send me the backgrounds, I can work with you to add them to the theme. Probably best to do this within a PM.
