jimmycoupe Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) Does anybody know how I can update the device logo so it no longer just has boring text "Arcade Light Gun" as you can see in my picture (pic1). I have worked out how to change the logo when you go into the game selection screen as you can see from my second picture (pic2) but its on the main screen where I am having the issue. Please help someone as I have spent along time going around in circles :-). Edited September 28, 2020 by jimmycoupe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bundangdon Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) Which theme are you using? RetroFresh? You may need to copy that logo-image into the "Clear Logo" folder for "Playlists". And then refresh the images in options Edited September 28, 2020 by bundangdon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmycoupe Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 yes it is RetroFresh, oh nice Playlists, I didnt see that, I was mainly focused on the platform folder. Let me go and try that now. Many thanks for your swift reply :-). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just keep in mind though, if you place any logos in the "images" folder of Retrofresh, they'll only work with that particular theme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmycoupe Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 I do not appear to have a playlist folder? where would this be? Currently i have put my Light gun clear logo in the Lauchbox\Core\images\Platforms\Arcade Light Gun\Clear Logo\ and Lauchbox\Images\Platforms\Arcade Light Gun\Clear Logo but as you can see in the screenshots it only appears on the rom selection screen.

bundangdon Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) There should be a folder like this (example: sports) C:\launchbox\Images\Playlists\Sports Games\Clear Logo That's where you should put the logo Edited September 28, 2020 by bundangdon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmycoupe Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 If I do not have a playlist folder, should I just make it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bundangdon Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Yep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bundangdon Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 It should already be there, but I'd make the "Playlists" folder and then add a folder in that with the exact name of your playlists, and then add these sub-folders in that folder: Banner, Clear Logo, Device, Fanart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmycoupe Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 Thank you, i have just created the following c:\launchbox\images\playlists\Arcade Light Gun\ and created the sub folders in there and dropped the logo into the clear logo sub folder. I am currently doing a full launchbox theme update so once it has finished I will run Big Box and see if this has helped. Many thanks for your help, it is really appreciated as I have been going around in circles trying to do this :-). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmycoupe Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 You beat me to it I was just going to ask was the update image cache in the Bigbox option screen. This is a very nice and helpful forum I must say :-). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmycoupe Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 It worked I now have artwork, yippee. You guys are heroes and don't let people tell you that you aren't :-). Today is not only the day my Commodore Plus4 game I have been looking for 22 years arrived through my door it was also the day that I finally understood the launchbox theme options, not sure which is bigger ?. Anyone know if there is a cool theme video for Light Guns? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bundangdon Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Glad to hear you got it working. I think there's a theme video like that in the "Unified Refried" theme somewhere. You can find it here https://forums.launchbox-app.com/files/file/1501-refried-theme-platform-video-set/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmycoupe Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 They do indeed have a couple of nice light gun theme video's. Many thanks once again, today has been a good day, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
