Love the theme. When out and bought a xbox 360 controller to match your control layout for the NES. Could you please upload your outher layouts for the other systems.

Thanks

Sure! Do you use Xpadder? The advance keys are 'shift' functions in Xpadder and they work really well. No need for shortcuts when they're mapped to secondary functions on your controller.

Thanks for the props by the way... I'll up the ones I have done.

No don't use xpadder I will download it and start to figure it out.

Adding the custom backgrounds to the theme and the only one that shows up is the Gameboy Color one. In Atari 2600 for instance, in Custom Backgrounds I select Back-Atari_2600_Foreground.png and nothing changes. I have noticed that the bottom band color does change though, when I select the Back-Atari_2600_Foreground.png.


Also is it possible to add a semi transparent background to the game list box.

[Adultery]

You don't select the foreground starbuck.

For atari 2600, you would select Back-Atari_2600.png The foreground is applied by GameEx.

Also make sure you downloaded the updated version of the theme on the first page (if you haven't already done so).

I also uploaded the controller images that go with the theme and put them in the first post.

Had to fix up stats.png. It was hard to see the black text over the BG I made. Hopefully this works better for ya.

Great work Adultery! This continues to be one of the slickest themes available for GameEx.

[AlphaUMi]

Thank you for this update Adultery!

[Adultery]

Thanks guys! I still want to do some work on the new view, but I haven't really been motivated to work on it.

Anyone know why my MAME list reverts to bak.png instead of MAMEBak.png? Does this happen to everyone or do I just have a naming issue somewhere?

Can I just say that those controller images are sick!

[Adultery]

Thanks Circo! I made the theme to match the controller images.

Funny thing is its usually the other way around!

[Adultery]

UPDATE: Added YouTube video.

[celly]

Adultery do you have a blank controller images that I could have? Yours look great but some of my configs are waaaay different from the ones you shared. Thanks dude!

[Adultery]

There should be a PSD in the theme folder.

[celly]

Doh! Insert foot in mouth, now.
