A couple of things to check, You say you made a platform called Nintendo 64 hd, but the images are called Nintendo 64 HD, capitals instead of lower case. Also what format are the images in, all the default ones in that theme are .png are the ones you have? It shouldnt normally matter, but maybe hardcoded to .png in the theme, i honestly dont know there.

everything is called Nintendo 64 HD are all png images

I just added custom images for favorites playlists for my kids and no issues with Unified showing them. Png files placed in the specific pointers, borders, and background folders.

LaunchBox\Themes\Unified\Images\Theme

Is the 64 HD the only one giving you issues? Do you have any other custom platforms and do they show the images?

with all those new pittaformes that I insert now also with new platform pinball fx3 same problem

is there anything to change in the unified thema settings?

 

I only see the themes that are there by default. I do not see the new ones I add

There should not be anything to change settings wise. As long as the image name matches the name of the playlist or platform and you are putting them in the themes images folders it should work next time you restart BigBox. 

Just to be clear are you using Unified or Unified Redux?

[slashguns04]

Unified Redux 1.4

as you can see from my first place I put pictures with the same name in their folders

Threw me off as your title of the thread simply says Unified. That explains it then. Redux uses jpg files not png. You need to chamge the image types you are using the jpg. Jason changed the Redux theme to use jpg.

also the default img are in png format

No, the default images are .jpg.

Looks like you may be using a old version of the theme, possibly one that does not support what you are trying to do. I would re-download the current version of the theme and try that. Jason specifically says in the download description that he converted all images to .jpg which halved the size of the theme.

I'm sorry I'm messing up I'm using the Unified Redux 1.4 theme

Works just fine for me, as you can see below i added a Homer background image and named it "Super Nintendo Entertainment System" and it shows behind Super Nintendo in Unified Redux just fine.

[slashguns04]

you do not need to replace a background for an existing system, but a new system such as nintendo 64 HD or pinball fx3

Yes i know that, i was just showing that it works. OK then, i have just created a Nintendo 64 HD platform in Launchbox and i added the same Homer image with the name Nintendo 64 HD, and again it works just fine.

I solved thanks for the help
I had two unified folders that conflicted
