If you look at the StarNight theme video (which isn't up to date, we agree), the same coverflow does appear with the mirror effect in front (at 5m15s).

As you point out, the video isn't up to date, its creator has modified the coverflow since then.

In 3 years, both WiiFlow and the theme have evolved a lot.

I agree Ayatus but if you look more closely, the mirror effect shown is due to a light source coming from behind (just look at the direction of the letters projected on the white surface).
Now, those are placed behind the title, which isn't logical... ok :98: :93:

No that's not a choice of the
Creator. That is to say me ^^' as far as the coverflows go. Jiiwah then Mamule with ayatus's participation, I believe, continued updating the theme. Although it seems that no one tried to modify the coverflows, it seems errors or parameter changes were made without knowing why or how for the second time apparently.

I'm in the middle of moving this weekend and although my Wii is totally neglected by my kids, I'm taking care of updating it and fixing the issue as soon as possible. ;)

I indeed never tried to modify the coverflows.
This unintentional change must date from uh... quite a lot of months ago.
I just take care of modifying the ini as WiiFlow gets additions and @mamule only worked on adding and adjusting images.
You might be somewhat surprised by the current structure of the file and it should keep evolving.

Hello,

First of all, a big thank you to you for the time spent evolving this theme so it stays compatible with the latest versions of WiiFlow :bravo:
Next, regarding evolution Ayatus, using Dios Mios with the StarNight theme, there's a problem when accessing a game's settings. Depending on the color of the custom-banner you can't make out the settings lines (black text on dark background).

Since banner colors vary from one to another, there's no solution other than disabling their display in wiiflow.ini.

Code: Select all

[GENERAL]
banner_in_settings=no
I've always found that option being enabled by default annoying.

Changing the text color would be feasible but it wouldn't really be StarNight anymore and anyway what works for one banner won't work for another.

Thanks Ayatus but having recovered the custom-banners for GC games, I went back to the default theme to keep them. Well, in the end, since the games don't launch, I'll soon have no more problems with DM and StarNight :arff:

The previously mentioned option doesn't disable the banners but only their display in the configuration pages.

Oops! Thanks for the clarification Ayatus. :74:
So, if I ever manage to get GC games working, with DM, I'll remember to modify Wiiflow.ini
