[Etheboss]

[masterjakeway]

so, am i correct that pl isn't working with d2x v9 r49? it just gets hung up after the priibooter screen. if i load it from hbc or system menu forwarder it will load, but, nothing will show at all.

damn i love the holodark theme they both look great together.(wiiflow/pl4.) i have a real nice theme that goes with this set up.
even though most people will/donot use main menu. it still complements both these themes well. i found it on a german site i use offten, an converted it to be used for 4.3u/4.3e
it's call dark light blue mod. if any one want this.

these are mym files, so you'll need to convert these to csm. using theme mii. again these are not mine just a nice one i found that looks real nice next to both of these themes.
enjoy . an as always great work stfour. postloader has been working flawless since i up dated.

oh sorry duh, it's a mym file, so tired after work today I didn't even read that right. Thanks.

I'll be testing b32 for the first time as well, I'll be grabbing it tonight but I'll post up the results 2moro. I'm exhausted today, but I'm super psyched about PL4 stfour, thanks to everyone involved in making it better and better for the final release.

One thing is missing in "HoloDark" theme: The shiny covers effect found in "Dimension" theme
I'm sure if added this feature will make HoloDark even better.

I've tried it, but the final effect doesn't fit well with other theme elements. Flat icons are much better for olodark.

Can this effect be added manually to any theme, by just simple editing of a setting or ini file?

Edit: Fix94 updated the emulators nes,snes and gboy to mod11 and genesis too. all works great with PL4 with no nog screens about updates
So, time to make a new pluginpack v3 with the working mednafen

One more thing about splitting plugin.conf by making a seperate conf file for plugins used and rom path, any news here stfour?

Thanks for the great new feature, loving PL4

So have you enabled ios249 in ploader "Use cIOSX (249)" ?

Beside I doesn't know if there is some incompatibility with d2x v9 r49, imho the best choice is to keep working with ios58. Anyway I will check.

try to replace this in theme (when oloDark is active)

this will add a (very) basic glass effect to icons.

Yes you are right, but I'm very busy with the last "feature" I want to have in postloader (as usual I add what I need ). It will really be the last "beta" and will have also a new theme because I need help to choose a default theme for postloader4 final (competitors are dimension2/oloDark/carborange)

And messes up most of the icons by matriculated and myself, because the sheen interferes with what is already in the icon.

I intentionally don't use shiny effects. The theme is meant to be flat, like a piece of paper.
But I have no problems, if there will be modifications.

I made a small update:

--set the lower area with the blue line some pixels upwards (so it will not touch the font)

 

[AbdallahTerro]

I really like the shining effect in Emu mode mainly:

Without it things are different

Maybe the easiest option is to edit the emulator pngs themselves adding effects to them instead of making this theme specific.
Another option is to allow shining effects in specific views by adding an option to B-Menu button
thanks again

No, this will not heppens, is too much specific...

 

[Etheboss]

meanwhile...

postLoader 4.b32

* emu default icons can now be added to theme. If they are not present, standard one are used(check holoDark2 theme on googlecode, thx gl1mml1ng)
* corrected a little issue when applying background tiles using themes
* fixed fonts for homebrew app menu (thx gl1mml1ng)
* semplified render process. Now only one fb is used.
* increased covercache items
* under neek gc and wii games are no more mixed in wii games view (thx etheboss for your diconfig.bin)

edit: @etheboss, your diconfig.bin seems fine... only found that it has mixed gc and wii, and maybe this is a problem, let me know what's heppens with b32. If still dump a shot of the dump can help

b32 still dumps... i will try a clean PL4 b32 setup later today, if it still dumps...i will make a picture of it.

PS. here is a heads up, maybe you want contact Overjoy because very soon he will implement a change (something with FS) that will break PL support again...

Greetz.

 

[stfour]

Thank you etheboss, for the info about fs and the snap

 

[stfour]

so, am i correct that pl isn't working with d2x v9 r49? it just gets hung up after the priibooter screen. if i load it from hbc or system menu forwarder it will load, but, nothing will show at all.

I can confirm this... postloader doesn't work with d2x v9 (47/49)... with d2x v8 works as should... very strange...

OK here is the dump, a clean install didn't help either...

That's odd, I'm able to boot 4b31(haven't updated yet) with d2x r49 on ios 249, with base IOS 57. What base do you guys use for yours?
