Let me know if you see any issues with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Carr Posted February 9, 2019 Author Share Posted February 9, 2019 @wallmachine Try removing the 9.4.5.txt file in the theme folder; it could be a relic from a previous beta. If that doesn't work, I'll need you to send me the theme so I can figure out what's wrong, along with details as to what's happening.

Jason Carr Posted February 9, 2019 Author Share Posted February 9, 2019 @wallmachine Ah, I see. I didn't realize you had manually moved things. Unfortunately it looks like you got caught in the crossfire of confusion while I figured this stuff out (sorry for that). As it turns out, we ended up keeping the styles files, just manually referencing them. See here: So you can keep your styles files (or add them back) and just manually reference them like I do in the above post. My guess as to what's going on with the above is that somehow there are styles that are somehow not being applied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to manually change it after the latest beta, with the latest beta there is no Styles folder in the 'Default' theme folder. Specific fonts do not work correctly if they are in the Styles folder or manually referenced but if the Styles code is put into the Game/Platform views file it works. Regarding the ... it just doesn't work. Edited February 9, 2019 by wallmachine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted February 9, 2019 Author Share Posted February 9, 2019 @wallmachine The latest betas actually *stopped* removing the Styles files and folder. It must've happened from a previous beta. Unfortunately I'm guessing you're left with a version of the theme that didn't migrate properly. Do you have a backup of it anywhere?

No I don't have a backup... I ignored all previous updates and just downloaded 9.4-beta-11 today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ignored all previous updates and just downloaded 9.4-beta-11 today. You may have ignored a majority of the betas, but unless I'm completely missing something, a previous 9.4 beta other than beta 10 or 11 removed the Styles folder. As best I can tell, beta 10 and 11 cannot do that. I tested over 70 themes, so I'm very sure of that. Regardless, without a backup, we're in the same boat anyways. The code should all be there in the views files, but the theme was unfortunately left in a semi-invalid state from a previous beta. I'm very sorry for the trouble there; I never recommend using betas without backups (especially when developing themes), but I understand how it would be easy to end up in this situation. As far as the actual problem, I'm guessing some styles just aren't being applied properly, but I don't have the code. If you want to send me the theme I'll take a look to see if I can figure it out.

Yes, the default theme no longer has the Styles folder. That's unrelated to the other themes. Styles folders are not being deleted in beta 11. I will review your theme, but it might take me a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adu Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Hello. I'm currently using FutureState Neon Deluxe on my Arcade Cabinet. Do you mean that if @Mr. RetroLust doesn't make an update, his theme will be unusable on future versions of LaunchBox ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Carr Posted May 29, 2019 Author Share Posted May 29, 2019 I wanted to update everyone here and let everybody know that the themes uploader now supports pause themes: https://www.launchbox-app.com/themes I also added a pause theme section here on the forums. Pause themes are just as easy to work on as the startup themes are; I'd love to see some themes if you guys are up for it. Thank you guys as always. ? 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
