Blank Custom Theme Pack 2.1 Download

About this pack

This is a blank custom theme pack that can be applied to your wiiflow in multiple ways, depending on your circumstances.
You can either add it as a full build, just as a blank theme or a bit of both.
The full build is 308 MB, and the theme alone is 14.6 MB.

Unlike most other wiiflow themes, this theme introduces 3 new buttons to the flow. Genres, Hacks and Favorites.
There is also an ALL Arcade button as well as 12 buttons for the different arcade cores.

This enables you to put all your retro lightgun games in one place, which was the goal when this project started.
In addition to just lightgun games, you can also put other games from different consoles in one place, such as your Racing games and Fighters.

Final words

It has been a real pleasure playing with wiiflow in this way and it's helped a lot with my mental health recently doing so.
I also want to say a really big thank you to all the people who, without all their hard work this theme/ build would not have been possible.
Number one on the list is Fledge68 for his continued works with wiiflow and all the other developers before him.
Tetsuo Shima for his fantastic work putting the Wiiflow Lite Plugins Pack 2024 together.
Running snakes, Wiimpathy, raz0red, the genisis plus gx team and anyone else I have missed for the works done to the cores and emulators that enable us to play our retro roms through wiiflow.
I wish I could do what you guys do and I hope you don't mind me sharing your works in this pack.
Also, a massive thanks to those who made the Carbonik Abz and Rhapsodii Shima themes which I have played with to create the Blank Custom Theme.
And anyone else I have missed that deserves a big up for their works done with wiiflow or any of the great plugins for it.

And once again Enjoy
