CriticalCid Posted December 13, 2016 Author Share Posted December 13, 2016 Hi @Nyny77 Depending on the View you have to change it in multiple files. Wheel2GamesView.xaml (for the Vertical Wheel View with fullscreen game video themes) TwoColumnGameDetailsView.xaml (for the CoverFlow with Details View) GameDetailsView.xaml (for all other Games Views) FilterDetailsView.xaml (for the platform views) Search for the Lines with <GradientStop Color= and change the colorcode to your likings. Keep in mind that there are often 2 values because it's a color gradient. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I honestly don’t want to do that. My compromise/reference was to make it so big that “The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time” fits in without being cut off. Could you implement a scroll back and forth for those long names? The RetroArch menu does this for strings in the paths menu for example.

CriticalCid Posted December 13, 2016 Author Share Posted December 13, 2016 Unfortunately, it’s currently only possible to scroll text up and down. And that looks kinda bad with just one line of text. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charco Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Ah cool, it's not an issue really, and you made a good decision choosing a long named game as the default size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LogicalEgo Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Cid great theme. I am having an issue with not getting any video playback on the first two wheels views. I am using 1.3 and latest beta from today, nothing has been renamed. Video below explains it better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CriticalCid Posted December 14, 2016 Author Share Posted December 14, 2016 You have background videos activated but unfortunately you have to disable them in order to get the videos to work for these two views. I should better force disable that in the theme settings. Thanks for bringing that to my attention. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have videos set to fade but I am still getting rotation on videos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LogicalEgo Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 My contribution to the theme. Custom retro 80's background complete with shitty VHS tracking. I call it The Grid. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CriticalCid Posted December 14, 2016 Author Share Posted December 14, 2016 That VHS distortion effect annoys the crap out of me after a while but besides that: Great job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some stuff I make from scratch, some are heavily edited. I used to make intro videos for Hyperspin so I have a ton of materials just sitting around that has never been used and can easily be re purposed. I retired from the Hyperspin intro scene a long time ago when my work was being ripped off and sold with premade Hyperspin drives by some ass hat on youtube, who also threatened to sue me. After that I removed all my work and pretty much quit the front end scene until Launchbox/BigBox really came on the scene. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CriticalCid Posted December 15, 2016 Author Share Posted December 15, 2016 That’s awesome! I’m glad that LaunchBox has achieved to bring back again such a talented video creator like you to the FrontEnd scene! Definitely keep those videos coming, I’m really enjoying them. Maybe we could even make some “official” color variants of my theme with your videos 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 @keltoigael Those videos look amazing! Perhaps we can feature the theme soon? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
