Let me know if any other changes should be made.

I have 1 dark theme I want to replace (clouds) I'll pick one or add one from my long list

I didn't know you had a long list! Go ahead and replace it with what you want, you don't have to pick one of mine just to humor me.

Is it necessary to change BLACK code for 0xFFFFFF00 in menu.c and main.c
in every single PrintFormat line? Or there is another easier way?

 

[AbdallahTerro]

New Cloudy theme

lotsof backs are being moved to "Removed folder"

Troopage I like the luigi's background and I'll keep it in mind in case I wanna make any changes later

fastest way is to change #define BLACK line in global.h

I didn't really feel like I needed mentioned, I was just being envious.
Anyways, here are the updated themes:

I like this idea a bit, I would love to see images allowed so if you had the gamecode as a Png or something, it would load the image instead of the autoboot screen, if there was no gamecode images it would go by the Nintendont loader setup.

what do you mean?

 

[DemitriArcane]

what do you mean?

You know like wiiflow how you have custom banners, well what about custom images which boot.

So for instance Luigi's Mansion, when you boot it without an image it uses the default nintendont autoboot screen.

But when it has GLME01.png in a folder location it shows this instead

Oh that reminded me of an issue.

Abz, exactly what themes are those that show up the loading screen (loading bar and such).
Those are the Loader Themes, right?

If that's so, then I am having issues with it.
I have MasterMod Classic downloaded (it even shows up while the app boots up), but when I choose a game, it shows the default text, not the Loader image.

I am using the latest release, downloaded yesterday like at 6 pm GMT-7

which loader are you using?
are you booting the game using nintendont?!
loader images are meant to be used with usb loaders like wiiflow and gx

It's a good idea but I'm not making 700 new backgrounds

I can add the code for it though

I am using the standalone app.
So the Loader theme won't boot unless I boot Nintendont through a USB Loader?

It has never been able to boot the Loader Theme without a usb loader?

yes it has been like that since day 1
loader themes are for usb loaders using old (nincfg.bin) or new (argboot) methods

New update:
*Added custom image autoboot as loader themes using (ID3.png) files
*I can make it check for both ID4 and ID3 if needed too later
*currently the image will load as a nobar background only displaying cancel autoboot message (can also be changed if ppl want to make images with loading bars)

 

[AbdallahTerro]

Why not elaborate

*Added custom image autoboot as loader themes using (ID3.png) files as a ninbacknobar background
*Added custom image autoboot as loader themes using (ID4.png) files as a ninbacklight background

*Added loader theme booting when launching via nintendont

the ID3/ID4.png loading only works via loaders for now
I'll make it work via nintendont later

Awesome!
Thanks, Abz!
I'll update Nintendont as soon as I get home to try it out.

Question is, who will make custom loader backgrounds for every Gamecube game, and then who will want to sit and wait as they all download and take up space on their hard drive?
