Translucent Theme View File Translucent v1.0.1 BigBox Theme 1/31/2017 Theme Description ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Translucent is a modern-ish theme that features real-time Gaussian blurring behind its transparent panels giving them a frosted glass look. The effect works on both background art and background videos. Theme Notes ~~~~~~~~~~~ * Requires the font Bebas Neue, which is included in the root theme folder. Install it before running BigBox. * This theme is designed for 1080. The way the blur effects are implemented as well as the way that some text is formatted won't provide optimal results at any other resolution. I am aware of this, there is no need to comment and tell me about it. Beauty trumped compatibility on this one. * Any display scaling above or below 100% is likely to cause alignment issues with some of the theme elements. * The real-time Gaussian blurring can be a resource hog with fullscreen background videos enabled. Setting all transitions to "None" can help performance, as will using fan art backgrounds instead of videos. Submitter Grila Submitted 01/30/2017 Category Big Box Custom Themes  

Epoch09 is a theme I've been messing around with for a few months. While I'd like to add some features, I decided to turn it loose to get some feedback from the community. Please use this thread to let me know if you have any problems or suggestions. More information about the theme, including how I'd like to expand it with community help, is on the theme's download page. Please note this theme requires you to place my custom library in the LaunchBox metadata folder; instructions are on the download page. I hope you find this theme useful; I've enjoyed working on it ... probably a little too much.

Epoch09 View File Epoch09 started out as a post-apocalyptic vision, kinda my twist on the retro-based themes others have created. It contains a set of simple text-based views that are resource friendly. From there, I decided to add a series of "outposts" representing different environments. These outpost views are intended to use platform and game media; hence more resource hungry. The theme currently only contains one "outpost" of old abandoned buildings within a storied city. I've got one or two other outposts in mind, but I decided to open it up to suggestions. As much as possible, I'd like the outposts to be integrated into and become part of an interesting background. There should be a game and platform view for each outpost. So, let me know if you have any ideas -- please use the forum thread as follows: INSTALLATION: As with other themes, copy Epoch09 into the Themes folder. It also relies on a small custom library, which needs to be copied to your LaunchBox installation. Do this: 1. Exit BigBox (and LaunchBox). 2. Copy Epoch09 folder into LaunchBox\Themes folder. 3. Copy Ao.Bigbox.dll file into LaunchBox\Metadata folder. 4. Restart BigBox (cannot do #2/3 while BigBox running). 5. Select Epoch09 as your theme from within BigBox. NOTE: You don't need to install any fonts for this theme to work, as the required fonts are packaged in the Ao.Bigbox library. This library also includes additional code required for the theme to function properly. Thanks @Grila for teaching me how to create and use a custom library within BigBox.
