Default BigBox theme CTC files

[Daliant]

Hi everyone,

I’m currently working on customizing the default theme in BigBox using the Community Theme Creator, and I’ve run into a limitation I’m hoping someone can clarify.

Is there any way to access or extract the original default theme files so they can be modified directly within the Community Theme Creator?

My goal is not to build a theme from scratch, but rather to use the default theme as a base and apply incremental changes. However, I haven’t found any official way to load or edit the default theme through the tool.

Am I missing something, or is this simply not supported at the moment?

Any guidance or recommended workflow would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

The default theme wasn't created in the CTC, so unfortunately, unless someone goes through the process of doing so, you may be out of luck there.

At the moment, the easiest way to adjust changes to the default theme is making a copy of it and then editing the xaml view files in the copy.

Our strategy guide is always growing and contains a good amount of Big Box theming documentation: https://feedback.launchbox.gg/help/collections/0470309-big-box-theming
 

However, if you have any questions about it, don't hesitate to ask.
