Unfortunately, I became ill a couple weeks ago, and it seems I will require hospitalization and surgery. While I was eager to get this sorted out last week, it appears that the earliest available date for the procedure is the 27th. I promise I'm doing everything in my power to get this scheduled as soon as possible, and will be reaching out persistently next week to try to expedite things. I deeply apologize for any inconveniences this might cause and any interruptions in the content or interactions you’ve come to expect. Your patience, understanding, and unwavering support mean the world to me during this challenging time. Hope to be back at it soon. Thanks. No need for apologies. Take the time to take care of yourself and get better. Wish ya a speedy recovery! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saieno Posted November 5, 2023 Author Share Posted November 5, 2023 (edited) Hey all, thanks for your patience and support while I was recovering. I'm feeling much more like myself and will get back into the theme development soon. With that said, here's a sneak peak of the current work in progress for the next update. The main features in this next update will be: Platform View redesigned completely based on the COLORFUL theme. This allows for videos on the Platform view, and also redesigns the Coverflow view and default Game Details View. The background music and platform theme volume is also being decreased by over 75% across the theme to be more bearable. Three new views have been created, and one re-created. The Nintendo Game Boy view is redesigned to better represent the Game Boy, and three new Super Game Boy views have been created, one for NA, PAL, and Super Game Boy 2 for JP regions. Here's some previews and I hope you look forward to it!

Saieno Posted November 20, 2023 Author Share Posted November 20, 2023 (edited) I'm excited to introduce the latest update of the "Mini Consoles Theme" for Launchbox BigBox. This version brings several new features that will elevate your game collection presentation to new heights! If you run into any issues please do let me know. Unfortunately my development environment became corrupted so this release may be the last for a bit while I work to recover the development files. Thank you again and I hope you enjoy. Platform View Revamp: Redesign_Mini_Console_Theme.mp4 The Platform View has undergone a complete overhaul inspired by the COLORFUL theme, incorporating the same vibrant colors found in COLORFUL Platform videos. The new Platform View has been adjusted to seamlessly accommodate any Platform video, resulting in a colored border surrounding the video for a cohesive and visually appealing theme experience. Audio Enhancements: Background audio and song volumes have been significantly reduced by 75% across the entire theme. This reduction is aimed at enhancing the overall user experience by ensuring that audio elements do not overpower other aspects of the theme. New Platform Views: Nintendo Game Boy View: A brand-new Nintendo Game Boy view has been introduced to replace the existing Nintendo Game Boy view. This new view is designed to more accurately represent the Nintendo Game Boy platform, addressing the previous view's closer resemblance to the Nintendo Super Game Boy. Nintendo Super Game Boy Views: As a result of the Nintendo Game Boy view replacement, three distinct Nintendo Super Game Boy views have been introduced: North America Super Game Boy View (Nintendo Super Game Boy): Tailored to North American users, this view captures the essence of the North American Super Game Boy experience. PAL Regions Super Game Boy View (Super Game Boy): Designed specifically for PAL regions, this view provides a unique representation of the PAL Super Game Boy setup. Super Game Boy 2 View (JP Regions) (Super Game Boy 2): For users in Japanese regions, the Super Game Boy 2 view has been created to replicate the JP Super Game Boy experience. Default Coverflow View and Default Game Details View Revamp: In addition to the Platform View overhaul, both the Default Coverflow View and Default Game Details View have undergone a complete redesign. These views have been transformed to align seamlessly with the COLORFUL style, while still preserving the distinctive backgrounds and colors associated with each platform. General Improvements and Bug Fixes: Various minor bug fixes and performance enhancements have been implemented to ensure a smoother and more enjoyable user experience. Overall theme stability and responsiveness have been improved to minimize any potential issues. I hope you enjoy the latest Mini Consoles Theme Version 2.1.0 with these exciting new features and improvements. Your feedback is highly valuable in helping me further refine and enhance the theme. Thank you for your continued support and enthusiasm! Edited May 15 by Saieno 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you very much for responding, well I sent some examples of what I get, before writing I changed a specific option in the theme, and the PS2 menu worked fine, as did others like Super Nintendo and Arcade, but it was Windows , PSP. , the error appeared like in the psp image. and the others end up like the ps2 image. I left everything as I was putting the recommendations on the topic, but it remains the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saieno Posted December 1, 2023 Author Share Posted December 1, 2023 (edited) @NeozV When you're on the PS2 view, hit the V button as it states on the PSP screen you provided, and choose a supported view (Vertical Wheel 1 for PSP). PS2 would be Horizontal Wheel 1. Please let me know if that helps. Edited December 1, 2023 by Saieno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What resolution are you using the theme at? I’m on a Asus Ally. Running it in 1280x720 with scale grayed out. The icons are cut from the bottom. Changing it to 1920x1080 with scale at 150%, the icons are still cut. Once I change the scale to 125%, the icons are not cut. I use 720p a lot.

Ah okay, I'm not too familiar with the ASUS Ally and how it displays things but I usually use the theme at 1920x1080. I've not seen any issues at 1280x720 either but this is on a PC and not a handheld so I'm not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
