patito Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 hi guys,great work! i been setting emulators with the megatheme all weekend,but i cant find a 4:3 gba theme on any of the ftp folders,theres one somewhere? thanks!
Unknown50862 Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 i been setting emulators with the megatheme all weekend,but i cant find a 4:3 gba theme on any of the ftp folders,theres one somewhere? Don't believe there is one. A full 4:3 set was never finished, as focused was shifted to 16:9. Styphelus' folder has the only currently completed 4:3 themes, so if there isn't one in there then there isn't one completed yet. Also keep in mind that any of the 4:3 themes were finished before gibbawho discovered the Flash method to creating themes, so they won't be as clean as the widescreen themes, then again that doesn't matter as much for standard definition.

KrillCaz Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 This theme would be perfect if they launched a little faster. It takes like a whole 2 seconds for the console, mascot, and video to all appear. I wish it was a tad bit more immediate.

Open up the theme in hypertheme and adjust the time of each of the artworks to make them appear faster if you want sent from my galaxy s3 using tapatalk

Unknown50862 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 It seems I was wrong to assume there was no interest in the modern console themes. There were requests for some of them in the other thread, so I went ahead and threw them all together just in case (from gibbawho's designs of course). Matching system themes can be found in my folder as well, though again, missing any box/cart artwork.

gibbawho Posted February 11, 2014 Author Posted February 11, 2014 Created a new folder called Unified Mega Theme with sub-folders for themes, bezels and wheels. Lets throw everything in there from here on out. I'll update my OP and drop a line to the bezel and wheel threads to do the same. Unknown50862: go ahead and dump your collection in there.
leperwdup Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 gibba ill have a talk to the other guys that also have done wheels and figure out what the best way for us to approach this so that we do not overwrite each others work. Or if they are doing wheels @ all for this set anymore. Either way ill put my work into that folder after I have a talk to them since I don't want to step on anyone toes

I guess you may have already been told that a few times already.
FLYNN`S Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 @ leperwdup Why don't you create a sub-folder in Wheels called Leper-Style or similar. So we have a choice. I think that would be best. At least it will be organized.
gibbawho Posted February 11, 2014 Author Posted February 11, 2014 Updated OP to summarize progress and inform readers of the change in file location.

Unknown50862 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Hi Unknown50862, the Windows one is just what i am looking for but i cant find it in yours or the new Unified Mega Theme folder. Where is it hiding please? Sorry about that, it's under the Steam folder marked as Alternate. I'll make sure to re-label it better when I get home tonight. The credit for the Windows logo idea though, should go to Styphelus. He's the one who originally placed it in the theme.

sniffmyface Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Brilliant, thanks!! This set of themes has really given me renewed interest in my arcade project. Thank you all so much!!!

gibbawho Posted February 12, 2014 Author Posted February 12, 2014 my god ... just got to turbografx/pcengine and there were a staggering number of versions of that console. there's no way i'm going to find good pictures of all of it. even if i could its way too many... so i'm sticking with just the official NEC ones ... including what has to be the most hideous console ever made ... the Supergrafx: http://static4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130608054326/retroconsoles/images/b/b3/SuperGrafx.jpg ... wow. just wow. it hurts my anus to think some guy got payed at least several thousand dollars to come up with that design.

leperwdup Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Uploading the 24 completed system wheels sets that I have done so far into the new wheels directory for the unified theme. Probably be finished uploading in about 30 or so minutes. Once I get my own hyperspin setup progressed further I will start to create wheels for the other consoles in the set. Examples of what the wheels look like can be found in this thread. Anyways enjoy
FLYNN`S Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Just curious, what transitions are you guys using with these? By the way, great work! I really enjoy the animated 4:3 themes. Looking forward to seeing more of them.

Looking forward to seeing more of them. If you look in my folder there's a transition override video i made that's meant for these. its very simple, just horizontal bars, but its timed perfectly for the load times of the artwork.
gibbawho Posted February 14, 2014 Author Posted February 14, 2014 Ok .. I know its been a little bit since I've had anything new to show so i wanted to show you what i've been building out photoshop. Heres a few more systems (with all or most regional versions). Everything from NES to PC Engine. PC Engine is sorely lacking in decent character artwork out there. I couldn't find a good picture of Bonk anywhere so I ended up spending a day converting this picture into a vector. Also had to make a few vector logos basically from scratch including most of the pc engine consoles and mega-cd. I'll put AI files up for these. I'm sure others will find them useful. I'm really proud of where this is going. Lots of work but totally worth it. This isn't everything. I just have a few loose ends to mop up on these and i'll start assembly line building them out. As always, let me know what you think!
KrillCaz Posted February 14, 2014 Posted February 14, 2014 Gibbawho, fantastic work. Could you by any chance also create an alternate theme with the retro versions of the characters to the SNES and the NES theme? The HD Mario/Yoshi doesn't really fit well with the NES/SNES.

gibbawho Posted February 14, 2014 Author Posted February 14, 2014 snes will also have a Samus and a Crono from Chrono Trigger, and a mario with and without yoshi in 3d and 2d form.
