Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place but I don't see it in the change log. Should be in the PDF bundled with the download. It's a simple change in the Nostalgia.xaml styles file. Check it out and let me know if you have any problems. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YES! Thanks so much. Works perfect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EduInmigrante Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Is possible to remove the Year vertical table? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should be able to comment that our pretty easily in the XAML files using a text editor like notepad. I'm not in front of my computer now, but look for something like VertReleaseYear in the views you want to modify. Let me know if you have trouble making that change.

Yes, i can change little things, but i can`t remove the Vertical table that show the year. I want to remove this to give more space to the game list names.

I want to remove this to give more space to the game list names. Are you talking about removing what's within this red box and making the text list wider? You can make it look like as follows if you make the changes as in this example: TextFiltersView.xaml -- Do NOT just copy this xaml file into your theme folder, as it contains some other things that will break the view. But you can make these same changes in your XAML file. You could also make these changes in other views, though with some it might get more complicated. Basically you can adjust the grid row/column sizes and remove elements you don't need.

Works perfect! But only in the Platforms screen. I will try by my self to remove this from another screens. I just have to coment the same lines in other files, right? By the way... is there a way to change the name (PLATFORM) for another thing? (Edit: I broke the game list xD) (EDIT 2: Now i fixed the game list <3) Now i just need to know how to change the PLATFORM name.

I see ... that is a problem, and I'm able to reproduce it on my setup. Thanks for mentioning it. I'll have to look for a solution but it will probably take a while. In the meantime, you could comment out the section in the XAML that displays the title and resize some of the grid rows; look for PlatformSelectorHeader, e.g.: <!-- <RowDefinition Height="40*" /> <RowDefinition Height="320*" /> <RowDefinition Height="1740*"/> --> <RowDefinition Height="50*" /> <RowDefinition Height="0*" /> <RowDefinition Height="2050*"/> <RowDefinition Height="60*" /> </Grid.RowDefinitions> <!-- <Grid Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="1" Style="{StaticResource NostGridCachedCompo}"> <aop:PlatformSelectorHeader Style="{StaticResource NostSelectorHeader_PLAT}" ViewTitle="{Binding Path=Title}" /> </Grid> --> 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eatkinola Posted September 9, 2018 Author Share Posted September 9, 2018 @EduInmigrante: Found a solution, and in the process I'm adding multi-language support. It'll take me a while to finish this, but I'll let you know when it's done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xzerox Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 very good friend theme, come here because I used the viking videos with the default theme but I see that this is much better is great. I have some questions on the theme. with this theme the viking videos do not look good, from where I could download the videosnaps that come inside the screens in those videos? I see that the new playlists of the mame are not made yet, will you implement them in the future? thank you and sorry for the english I speak spanish and I had to translate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you like the theme. You can download platform and playlist videos in LaunchBox. Goto Tools -> Download Platform/Playlist Theme Videos. As for game videos: you can get those from emumovies, which is easy if you're an emumovies member since you can just link your emumovies account to LaunchBox and download these movies along with other game metadata. If you're not an emumovies member, you should still be able to download many (all?) of the game videos but it'll be much more time consuming. 15 hours ago, xzerox said: new playlists of the mame are not made yet, will you implement them in the future? Which playlists? I've already implemented many of these, but not sure if there are new playlists since I last looked. I don't use mame playlists so don't really keep up with them, but I can add more if needed. Look here to see the playlists I've already included in Nostalgia: ..\LaunchBox\Themes\Nostalgia\Views\Images\AVLF\Playlists Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xzerox Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 (edited) Hello, thanks for answering. Regarding the videos, I think I should make an account with emumovies and see how it goes. Regarding the mame playlist are these: Playlists for arcade genres - 2-Player, 4-Player, Ball & Paddle, Beat Em Ups, Board & Card, Fighting, Flying, Light Gun, Maze, MultiGames, Pinball Arcade, Platform, Puzzle, Racing, Run & Gun, Shoot Em Ups, Shooter, Sports these are in the following link in case you want to see them in video https://forums.launchbox-app.com/files/file/1157-nostalgia-169-video-additions-set/ greetings and thanks Edited October 1, 2018 by xzerox 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those videos by @dragon57 look nice, and I should be able to include them in nostalgia if okay with him. It'll take me a few weeks at least because I've got a project in the works for my day job, but I'll get it done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yelever Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Just started using Big Box and this theme and love it. Was using Attract Mode for a long time but switched over. Was wondering if any of the Microsoft MSX computers will be added in the future? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
