I recommend deleting all default wav files from the audio folder (as below) and replacing them with the files from the XBOX Sounds zip file for a clean install.

Incredible job, as always kersalmassive. Just tested it and here's a couple of bugs:

- I have all my covers as a square, but in the couple that aren't a perfect square, my setting of 1x1 images is not enforced on this theme, like in others.
- Item Spacing isn't doing anything at the moment, no matter if you turn it up or down.

Keep on rocking and thank you so much for your hard work, dude!!

[kersalmassive]

Thanks for the feedback

For the adjustable item spacing. I removed it as I initially wanted fixed spacing so the border would work without clashing or overlapping the next grid. I will add it back in if you want it.

It seems for the 'mask' layer that adds the rounded corners, it defaults to the aspect ratio height, for some reason. Needs to be looked into

Update 0.2
- Fixed item spacing for grid artwork
- Updated 'Game Options' button
- Added Light Theme

I'm sorry but, how did you manage to get all your covers perfectly squared?

[kersalmassive]

Set the grid view aspect ratio as 1:1 in settings
I've created and manually added my own square covers.

I'm going to try and start a square cover database or create a plugin, if someone can help

[SeeDborg]

I made square covers for more than 300 games, if that helps.

[kersalmassive]

It does, need to store them somewhere and a plugin

I made a call some time ago : https://playnite.link/forum/thread-262.html
(since that, I have square covers too)

This is absolutely amazing. I always wanted to have an interface like this on PC and feel it like a console, I just discovered this and I feel really excited. I just have one question. Where can I get HD squared pictures? I'm trying to get every picture of the Assassin's Creed saga but with the first games (the oldest) I only find them with a poor quality
Thank you so much for this and for your work, this is absolutely insane!

Official stores as 1st choice:

- https://www.xbox.com/en-us/Search?q=Game
- https://store.playstation.com/en-us/home/games
- https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Search/Search...7394-10-77

Then try Google Image Advanced Search for Square Images Only: https://www.google.com/search?as_st=y&tb...&tbs=iar:s

If all this fails, you are out of luck and you have to make them yourself.

Hey. If we could just enable icons in fullscreen (banners), we could have square icons automatically:
Something like this:

Google Image search > Settings > Advanced search > Aspect Ratio = Square

and then search with the below parameters:

site:microsoft.com assassin's creed
site:store.playstation.com assassin's creed

and then change part of the url of the size like below for example:

w=162&h=162 to w=600&h=600

and you will get....

Hey so I did my best to add banners to make normal covers work in a squareish format. Try this with a 6:7 icon ratio in settings:

My whole point in doing this is so you don't have to manually add a custom icon every time you add a game.

What I wanted to do was make it perfectly square, with stretching, but I couldn't figure out how to change the aspect ratio outside of the settings menu (which edits your desktop theme. 

[yograndmasmoke]

Thanks to everyone for the tips, I'm really happy to have found this software and this community

[morgenman]

Also, I mocked up a much nicer PC games banner
I think it looks pretty good, especially since I don't have to touch any of the covers to squarify them manually. Thank you for an awesome theme!

[kersalmassive]

Good job, looks nice.

In terms of banners on the fullscreen themes, the way the rounded corners are coded, the code kind of doesnt work with aspect ratios and such. I'll spend more time on it in the future

[morgenman]

Those are banners. They are not hardcoded into the images.

[xQjan]

Very nice! It is possiblie to add achievments in game details?

This theme needs a update to make it work with the latest version of playnite it won't install, it looks cool and i want to use it.
