It seems that the Aura 4K is not shared because it is something personal that he works on occasionally when he has some free time, but he won't share it. However, I would have really liked to have the latest Aura theme with shadows on the covers where there is no Gaussian blur.

Well...I will try to do my part for those who want to accompany me well if not I'm going to see who has an affinity with xml in some animations and transitions and that's fine, the gear just can't stop.
There were some who just wanted attention and said they didn't want to continue because nobody spoke and blah blah blah. My attention would only be on the doubts that appeared. That's all.

Did you put a folder for each game or did you look for the rom and so the image with the same name of the rom appears from the rom?

no no i made sure i can put all the roms together

The ROM must have the same name as the image, and the information in the XML file in HyperList should also correspond to the information.

And the names of each cover how was it to find?
It couldn't be all named "cover" so it's named after the rom right?
Would you mind showing?


Inside meta/hyperlist/file.xml folder?
But I realized that there is nothing like an image, but palatorfam, year, name of the game where the images would fit in the code because what I have here does not show:

<game name="18 Wheeler - American Pro Trucker (USA)">
<description>18 Wheeler - American Pro Trucker (USA)</description>
<year>2001</year>
<developer>CRI</developer>
<manufacturer>SEGA</manufacturer>
<score>0.65</score>
<genre>Racing</genre>
<players>1-2</players>
<story>8 wheels, 20 tons of load, 18m long and 15,000km of road!
Your mission: Transport the goods on time at the wheel of one of the 4 trucks, beating your opponents.
Warning !! Anything goes, but to be the best you need to take care of your cargo. In the event of a crash,
your cargo will depreciate. The diversity of the game modes will allow you to perfect your technique, to
test your fighting spirit or challenge a friend!
18 Wheeler American Pro Trucker opens the doors to American road fun!</story>
</game>

Now if it's inside the xml of the layout then it would be something else because even if I indicate the path it won't go at all

The best would be for you to send me your Aura pack. I will look at the things that are not working.

In my case I want to leave it the same as TITAN Example:

D:\collections\computers\PC\medium_artwork.

inside that folder has:

medium_artwork\artwork_3d
medium_artwork\artwork_front
medium_artwork\fanart
medium_artwork\logo
medium_artwork\medium_disc
medium_artwork\story
medium_artwork\video


and consequently inside these folders the images with the names of the roms

This is what I put in the theme's xml:

menu menuIndex="1" type="custom" imageType="cover"

change to:
imageType="artwork_front" or "medium_artwork" and it doesn't find the filename that matches the rom

If I rename the image to cover by changing the search to another imagetype it recognizes it but not the rom name.

Fanart , story, video he can read normally but the cover not at all

Fanart , story, video he can read normally but the cover not at all
exemple my layout for covers game

<menu menuIndex="0" mode="layout" type="custom" imageType="artwork_front" scrollTime=".30" scrollAcceleration=".1" orientation="horizontal">
  <itemDefaults x="center" y="center"  xOrigin="center" yOrigin="center" alpha="0" width="232" spacing="10" layer="11"/>
  <item xOffset="-357"/>
  <item selected="true" alpha="1" width="460">
      <onEnter><set duration=".5"><animate type="alpha" to="1"/><animate type="width" from="240" to="520"/></set><set duration=".2"><animate type="width" from="520" to="460"/></set></onEnter>
      <onMenuExit menuIndex="0"><set duration=".3"><animate type="x" to="285"/></set></onMenuExit>
      <onMenuExit menuIndex="1"><set duration=".3"><animate type="x" to="center"/></set></onMenuExit>
  </item>
  <item xOffset="357"/>
</menu>

create an artwork_front folder in medium_artwork is add the images in artwork_front my as said if I don't see your aura I can help you too much if you can send it to me without the roms that I look at the problem more closely

because if you have made modifications or other it is complicated to give you the right indication
