Hey all. Just wanted to share this. I hardly understand how to edit these things but since I didn't like the default big_preview (4.4) look so I tweaked them a tiny bit. Didnt like the blue color on both sides of the boxart and the no image logo clipping out, etc as I scrolled so I just modified a couple things to change the background and border colors to the grey so it blends in better. Ive added a pic to show what I mean. I am a 100% noob at these things so hope I was allowed to post it like this. My changes made both pnes and psnes use the same color scheme as I just copy pasted the config files. If you like it then just grab it here. Cheers.
Just out of curiosity: Do the NES previews work for you when you switch to favourites?

Friend @Mattdabratt23 , could you make the two Pnes,Psnes background black instead of gray? ...
Many thanks.

Made some custom icons for PSNES, PFBA and PNES.
Make sure your file location for each is in their file location respectively beforehand.

/Switch/pfba/pfba.nro

I think PSNES/PNES are dead. I can't use it on my latest FW because D-Pad is now not responsive at all with the latest FW. :(

Are you getting white screen with the latest firmware

No, I can see my games just fine but I just said that I cannot used D-Pad.. There is no movement for up down left and right where I want to select the games. Before the latest FW, I was able to. To the latest FW, I cannot do anything. Can't let me select the games because D-Pad doesnt responsive.

I reported the problems at his github.. never replying from him and even in here. He is silent even I see several people asked him. He didnt answered "OUR" questions. :(

I had 10.0.0 and works fine too. I go to FW 11.0.0 (not 11.0.1) and I can see the list of my SNES roms but I cannot move with D-Pad at all. Can't select them. The same for pNES too.

Only the developer can resolve it. Without him here, we can't do anything. He is quiet. Maybe he gave it up,

That's odd.. I'm on the latest FW with latest CFW atmosphere and all my homebrew works completely fine including PFBA, PNES, PSNES.
Have you tried replacing your CFW files? Or adding new sigpatches?

If I am on 11.0.0 then my new sigpatches (fusee-primary for new sigpatches) works with Super Mario 3D World. Whats the difference ? My homebrew works fine included retroArch too. And my melonDS standalone works fine too.

Only standalone for pSNES and pNES have an issues. My pSNES and pNES runs fine but I can't use my "D-Pad".

Do you understand what is D-Pad ? Its Up, Down, Left, and Right directional so I can select my games but I can't.

I know what a D-pad is lol.
I've tried the standalone emulators within Hbmenu using full ram access and without.. aswell as from a forwarder.. I don't seem to have the Dpad issue you're referring to.

Can anybody else confirm 11.0.1 is fully working with pfba
Not that I don't believe you as no reason not to just
Interested in seeing if anybody else got it running
Tbh the info is not for me as I said I'm actually on 10.2.0


Uploading a video now to prove it.
My theme for my switch settings menu makes it hard to read so I even zoomed in and also checked all my Pfba, PNES and Psnes.
