All available themes are in our downloads section under BigBox Custom Themes.

@Xpendable Glad it worked for you as well. I think it is something with how heavy Colorful is. Maybe something for lack of a better description is getting stuck and not allowing the image refresh. That is mainly the theme I get this issue with. All other theme’s I use or test with have not displayed this issue.

@midd Well how abut that. With regards to the image size It is likely that platform marquee xaml I had you test. When you update it will not delete it. So look and see if it is still there and remove it.

Are you using a theme other than the default? Reason I ask is I had something similar happen and a theme stopped showing many of my chosen clear logos and the refresh would not fix it. What was odd was when I changed theme to the Default theme and refreshed the image it corrected it. When I then changed back to the theme I was using the logos were correct. This has happened a few times recently. Next time I will capture a video of it.

Well one thing I can confirm is you cannot edit the default themes. It will always revert to its normal coded state. This is a safeguard to ensure it always has a working theme. Now, you can copy and paste it, then rename it the theme and edit that one. So if you want to edit it that is what you will need to do.

I recommend posting using Google Translate. Some members may not want to take the time to translate for you so they may avoid answering. I cannot answer your question as I do not mess with multi-disc games much, but posted a translation for you.

@midd Did not forget about this. Checking with the team on this now. If you get a chance can you post a pic of with working in another theme. I would like to see what the image looks like.

Not sure. I will test in a bit when back to the house. Been a while since I used FBA. Edit: OK so just tested FBA and it works fine closing with the code I gave. I even tried a different controller where Start and Select are 8 and 9. No issues either.

Yes, that would be an issue for the steps I mentioned. In that case you can simply use the AHK below and paste into the same RunningAHK tab I mentioned. You will need to know what the button numbers are for the two buttons you want to hit to exit a game. in this code below it is for one of my 8bitdo gamepads to use Start and Select to exit a game. 11 is my select and 12 is Start. So in the code you would replace "11" and "12" with the correct buttons numbers for your buttons on your gamepad. Joy11:: If GetKeyState("Joy12") { SetKeyDelay, -1, 110 WinClose, ahk_exe {{{StartupEXE}}} } Return

Good. Yes, that is what was causing the issue so Jason added the tick box to turn it off.

Did you turn of the Dynamic Box Sizing option?

Set your exit gamepad buttons in LB/BB gamepad bindings. This way when you hit those two buttons LB will send Escape to the game. Then in the RunningAutoHotKey tab of the emulator (In LB go to >Tools>Manage Emulators and edit FBA and go to that tab) paste the AHK script below in that tab. What this will do is make it so that when LB sends Escape key to FBA the script actually ends up sending Alt+F4 instead. ESC:: Send !{f4} Return

Well shoot. Tomorrow (On a work trip today) I will test on a couple my other builds that do not have a marquee and see if I can replicate it. Only my big cab has a marquee and the theme works fine. I will check with Jason see if he has any ideas.

Dang. Strange it only affects platform marquees. I just cannot see how the theme would affect it. Theme's, as far as I know, will not affect the marquee unless they have a specific view for it. If you change the screen order in BigBox what happens? Although I will admit I do have something strange myself with his theme. My main cabinet will not change the platform colors as he designed it. All others will. I know he has a lot of things going on in that theme, but I cannot for the life of me see why only this cabinet will not show the different platform colors.

Can you share a pic of what you are seeing in BigBox when you select that theme.

Something is definitely up because as I mentioned in the Colroful thread you do not need either of the marquee xaml files for this to work. I tested colorful on a few of my builds and it shows the marquee. Can you do me a favor and test this xml? PlatformMarqueeView.xaml

What ever view you are using edit that xaml. It will be something like Wheel2GamesView.xml or one of the others. Edit with something like NotePad++. Good thing about his xml files is each section is clearly labeled. So just look for the metadata sections. In the TextBlocks edit the color in the "Foreground" spot. You may also need to edit the Game Title and Year spots.

I guess I am misunderstanding then. My wheel stays visible while it spins. Unless you are talking about how the theme itself is designed once a game is selected after a second it hides the wheel. If that is it there is a way to edit the code to have it stay longer.

He has his images in the correct folders and named correctly. He initially brought this up in one of the BigBox theme threads and I had him start a troubleshooting post for it. @midd Does this same thing happen in other theme? The theme should not make a difference, but might as well rule it out.

That is what I was thinking would be the issue. You need to move all those out and only leave the main Nintendo Entertainment System.xml. Launchbox is trying to read them all and is getting confused. Only the main xml platform files can be in that folder. You can put them in subfolders in that folder, but they cannot be in the same folder as the main platform xml.

In your \Launchbox\Data\Platforms folder do you see only one xml file with your NES platform name?

What happens if you flip those monitor setting in BigBox? The marquee should show. Jason built BigBox to have a default marquee without the need for theme creators to make a specific xaml to show marquees. I know we discussed that in the Colorful thread. It is rather odd that it will show the game just fine but not the platform. Is that marquee one of those cut monitors you can find on eBay and other sites?

Any chance either of you are running MSI AfterBurner/Riva Tuner?

OK so eliminates a sync issue that way. So somehow the changes you make revert back after a period of time correct? At least that is how it seems from what I read.

LB Database does not house videos. Those come from EmuMovies.
