Deam Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 (edited) Hi, I've tried using the Unified startup and pause menu themes, and then tested a few others to make sure. For some reason, and possibly a local setting on my end, no matter what theme I try to use it always is using the game boxart as the background for the pause or startup theme in Big Box and not the background it should be. This includes themes that should be using fanart (or my main goal, the Unified platform theme). Is this possibly due to a Launch Box Setting? EDIT: Okay - so I have now determined that it appears these startup/pause themes are using whatever the background priority is set to in Launch Box. This is odd behaviour since the Unified them actually sets what its background picture is supposed to be. Thanks.

Retro808 Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 In Launchbox tools check your image priorities for background images. See if oyu have boxart set above Fanart Background. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deam Posted July 22, 2020 Author Share Posted July 22, 2020 (edited) Yes I have just changed that and it now works for the themes with fanart. However, my main goal was to us the Unified startup and pause themes with the Unified theme in Big Box. These use the same Jpgs that are in the unified folder for the Big Bog Theme. However, for some reason fanart is what is shown. This is even the case where the XML code specifically tells the startup and pause theme to use the Unified Jpeg, so for some reason the launch box background priorities are even overriding directed paths in the startup and pause theme. Even if I actually specify a background file it is still overridden. I should add that I have only just changed the startup and pause theme to one that has a unique background so cannot say when/if this issue arose from the current version of LB/BB. I'll also add that if I renamed the background fanart folder for a given platform background of the theme works correctly. I thought of this as some random games worked and I realized they had no fanart background file. Edited July 22, 2020 by Deam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
