Hey @Porl Hendy. Both are still going strong. Already a few coverbox themes almost complete.
-
CoverBox - Sega Mark III Gold has been released.
-
CoverBox - Dreamcast has been released.
-
There's just a number of tweaks that each one could probably use. It's more just polishing them up with things I've learned since I've started.
-
Thanks @ALIE. I'll be going back through all my Coverbox themes at some point and implementing this splash page (and a few other things) to all of them. It does seem like Sega is going well. Sony may need some love soon enough.
-
Hey @Nyny77. Sorry. Install this font. I'll update the theme with it shortly. COPRGTB.TTF
-
CoverBox - Sega CD has been released.
-
Hi @broskiplays. Here is what you need to do: You have to go into the BigBox options. Go into Views and make sure "Remember separate view for each platform" is checked off. Go into Keyboard Mappings or Controller Buttons, and map a key to "Switch Theme" Then go into your choice of platform (like the Sega Genesis), click your "Switch Theme" key and choose which theme you would like.

Thanks @Shinryu. It's always good to have more variety. Use both. I switch them up all the time. Here's an idea: auto theme switcher, which can randomize themes per platform, or change them on a schedule. That would make things interesting. -
Hi @alnyden. This is unfortunately true. The menu won't come back while in the game details/options page. I would need to release a version where the menu never goes away, and the box/cart images never appear. I'm thinking of releasing that version for people that use the game details page.
-
Ok @alissongamer. Genesis has now been released.
-
CoverBox - Genesis Red and CoverBox - Mega Drive Blue have both been released.
-
Hi @Sath. Thanks for catching the Game Boy issue. I have uploaded a new version which should fix the problem. For the Master System, were you looking for something like this:
-
-
CoverBox - Wii Ware can now be downloaded.
-
Possibly. But it may be down my list. Do people collect and watch these?
-
Sounds like you need to set a different Image Type in LaunchBox for GameCube games. Make sure the image type is set to what you would like to see in BigBox. -
So if my understanding is correct. This would allow a background video being played. Something like this?
-
That's good to hear. Try it out. I've also managed to solve the sound issue. Let me know how it goes. CoverBox - Master System - 43.zip As far as others go. They will be much harder to convert to a 4:3 view. Would have to make a number of sacrifices to make some of them work. I would have to think really hard about each one individually.
-
What do you think of this title position?
-
I just noticed the sound stopping in the game details page. I know why this is happening, and I'll need to change a few things and test it out. Thanks for pointing this out.
-
Yeah, the Master System can change dynamically easier than some of the others. Changing the size of the images that give you the effect you want. Also, just tweaking the code a little can give a slightly better effect. Try this version of the theme to see if it works better for 4:3 size screens. CoverBox - Master System - 43.zip
-
Thanks @Daliant. I wish this was a simple process, but I would most likely have to redesign each one for that screen ratio, and there would have to be some sacrifices for each one due to the lost screen space. I may have time to design one for you. Which one would you like? I'll take a look at the possibility.
-
I did not realize this was an option. How does this work? Also, may be easier to implement if I can look at a theme that can already do this.

They are one of the 3d packs from emumovies. https://emumovies.com/files/file/2006-master-system-3d-boxes-pack-tab/
