akera099 Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Is there something I did wrong? The bezel and overlays do not seem to work using the theme file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @akera099. What do you mean by bezel and overlays? RetroCRT is a 4:3 Big Box theme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry that wasn't clear! I'm talking about the theme's bezel and the scanlines. Here's what it looks like in BigBox. As you see, the CRT-like bezel nor the scanlines does not show like in your pictures. I have dropped the Retro-CRT folder in my Big Box theme folder. I'm on BigBox 12.1, but I'm not sure if that's related. Thanks again and sorry, I'm kinda new to this, maybe I'm missing something obvious.

faeran Posted October 21, 2021 Author Share Posted October 21, 2021 Never seen that before. I'm assuming other custom themes don't have this issue for you? You could try: Right click the theme's zip file and choose properties. Make sure you Unblock the file before extracting. Double check you didn't extract a folder within a folder (it shouldn't be Themes\RetroCRT\RetroCRT\, it should be Themes\RetroCRT\) Check to see if the images actually exist - They are looking for them in Themes\RetroCRT\Media\Theme\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmattcoachman Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Hello! I love this theme, but I plugged my TV and my computer adjusted that to the main picture and it messed everything up. I can no longer see the clear logos at all. I have tried everything. I used the repair. I completely uninstalled and re-installed. I have used the refresh images option and the force populate all images option. I went in and completely deleted the cache for BB. I deleted all the settings for BB (which that screwed a lot up and thank God I had a backup) I restored a backup of yesterday and that didn't work. I'm just at a loss. This was my absolute favorite theme and I'm going to spend hours trying to get it back to working. Can you help me? ' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to first clarify, a theme cannot adjust settings like this. It's essentially just a skin. So, there's definitely some other underlining issue here. I would test other themes and check out their wheel. Start with the default and see if it's caching clear logo images into the wheel. Switch between views and see if you notice anything different. See if you have any Theme-Specific Options for this theme and clear them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmattcoachman Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Hey Faeran, Thanks so much for offering the help and trying to troubleshoot this problem with me, but I got home from work and booted up my PC and everything was fixed. Super weird, but I guess it proves that multiple restarts can help. Thank you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
