scummvm - Missing themes announcement


Recommended Posts

Posted


Added new works in Progress:


The Neverhood,

trying to figure out where to place the logo... Even contemplated the possibility to have a close up of the main character and use the green world and houses as a video border. 


Brokensword 2.5

open to suggestions


Space quest 6 

O dear.. i have it all worked out, in my head ... only The background that the box uses is impossible to reconstruct... SO looking for alternatives...so far all of it sucks


Quest for Glory 4, not sure why I posted this as this game is not officially supproted yet... it's a left over from the MS-DOS themes era. It is in development at scummvm but it hasn't been passed yet.

Neverhood: Another thing you could do is zoom it out a bit to open up more space and put the title in the grass like on the box. Then can just have the video in the black space anywhere on the screen. The box art's so simple I think a simple theme for it would look best.

Brokensword 2.5: What about zooming in on the skull a bit so it's cut exactly in half at the side of the screen and using the eye socket as the video border? Then maybe an animated flame effect where the ring of fire is.

Space Quest 6: I think a generic HD space background with subtle dark/purple hues could work. The CD Case art is a different space art than the box art and it doesn't have the floating eyes in the top right so I don't think it'll hurt too much.

QFG4: This one's hard. Also it -is- on Steam so still worthwhile imo in the meantime. I think the best but hardest way to do this one is to do a cut around the Hero and the Imp/Goblin, then redraw the space behind them, move the Lovecraftian monster and the existing ground to the far left, then either a. zoom in so the grass reaches the length of the screen or b. draw some new grass sloping off screen as it moves right. Then can cut out the Lovecraftian maw and use it as a video border.

Easy way`s to do it exactly like the boxart, with the action scene cordoned off in a lil box and the rest of the space being solid purple with the video being under the title but above the action scene with the Lovecraftian mob`s head overlapping it a bit.

Love seeing these themes get some attention.

Did a redraw of the Quest for glory 4 background. it now has a nice mountain side vista against the glorius pinky dusky background. I had a bit of insomnia this morning, got up at 4:15 and spend some time on that project. I think I'll have it done this evening. cut the foreground so the monster to hide behind. the imp will chase from one end to the screen to the other. still haven't decided if the hero will chase after or will just stand there. Will post some shots of it when i get back from work

I keep posting tidbits of ideas and just unloading them here. Concerning Zork Nemensis. I was thinking of combining these two elements.

The idea was to add the vague astrology symbols of the cover around the animation of solar eclypse.

a question, am I the only one that uses @thatpurplestuff's themes for his ScummVM system setup ? I only noticed now that his work is not available from the downloads section, this is a travesty.
