Batocera version of EmulationStation for Windows?

harpiufof

Hi! I am interested in starting to create themes. The problem is that, as I use Windows, the versions of EmulationStation that exist for this system do not have all the features offered by Batocera.

Is there any possibility that there is a version for Windows? If not, do you know some tools to facilitate the creation and testing of themes in Windows?

(Sorry if the message is not well understood, my English is not perfect)

Hello,

If you plan to use ES only for theming you can download a batocera ES windows build there :
https://github.com/fabricecaruso/batocera-emulationstation/releases
Note : this version has some menu options that don't work & are only present for "theming" batocera's menus

If you plan to use ES not only for theming, but also use it as a real frontend, you can download a Windows version there :
https://github.com/fabricecaruso/EmulationStation/releases

Note : Both versions theming capabilities are 100% compatible. Also : Both version can reload the current theme by pressing F5.
