Themes Batocera 29.05.2019

I wrote directly to the creator of the theme, if he intended to adapt his theme to Batocera. For the moment it is not planned. Whether in the near or distant future.
I would like to take this one up again by asking the creator of the theme for permission and then adapt it to Batocera.

Do you think you could do it, Ottohlc?
If of course the creator agrees and if other users of Batocera find it beautiful.

If the creator of the theme agrees that we can get it back. You think you can adapt it and make it work on Batocera ?

That would be great anyway.
Did you get any feedback on your existing themes ?

ottohlc

Mathema

I have not received a negative feedback about the themes. The themes were liked by friends. did you check the themes? Is there any problem about the themes?
I want to provide benefits to batocera.
I've made the title you've made sticky. thanks.

I haven't tested your themes yet.
I'm waiting to order my equipment, make a PC for retrogaming. An Intel NUC.
I could test them at that time.

Simplelight: If you can take a picture about the problem.
es-theme-zoid: this theme is also beautiful. There are some problems. I can do editing

Dragu yes Alekfull put a lot of themes available but none of them are working on batocera...
the es-theme-zoid for exemple is working native without any modification.. i guess all the "es-theme-" something (emulation station) are coming from retropie ..

ottohlc It will be very benefit if you can upgrade the es-theme-zoid of course ;-)
in the recalbox community there is a theme who look a lot like this one maybe you can get inspired..

There is also a new Alekfull (NX), appearing on Recalbox, and the design you can see here : https://www.facebook.com/alekfull.arcade
Just not possible as the conditions in the interface dont exist for the moment.

I downloaded Alekfull's themes, but none of them worked with batocera. The themes are very nice. There are .xml files in the theme folders.
if the .xml files are edited, the themes work. I could not solve this problem. We need to connect with Alekfull.

The problem is that in Recalbox the keyword types (vertical_wheel, carousel and so on) are compiled in /usr/bin/emulationstation. So, it could never work as Batocera miss this elements. It was the main work aside error corrections from Substring on Version 18/07/13. Beloved and still the best. 🙂

guyomemalik

ottohlc forget about Alexfull's themes looolll i think batocera just need simple themes like "simplelight", "es-theme-zoid" or "es-theme-crt-master"..(all of those looking like retropie and why not after all ?!) and maybe on the next release we can have a default theme for batocera that not look like recalbox you know..
we are lucky that Next Level v2.3 is working too because the 3.2 release don't.. just saying my point of view..

Dragu

ottohlc
But I just installed Next Level v2.3. Already much better. 🙂
Congratulations and thanks to you.

Apart from the missing possibilities you have also no option to configurate a theme in Batocera, Background color, font colour and so on. So alot of restrictions.

guyomemalik

Dragu yes batocera have some restrictions on things ..recalbox on others.. i hope in the next release there will be a possibility of changing more graphical options..
