Hi,

I have not tested it by myself. But @Spec used an unscrambler and said that it worked.

I don't think so. But it should work.

sorry meant without unscrambling, and yeah it should work as the normal 1ST_READ.BIN that my app finishes up creating and putting in GDEMU_SD

Updated GDMenu Theme Manager to v1.8e, I have made a small change to how theme previews are done to try to help speed up the previews for HD themes and included the previews with the zip so i recommend deleting the current themes in Assets\HD as well as in Themes and Themes\Previews except any you may have created.
I have also added a new Resident Evil HD theme online.

Thought I'd share a couple of themes I made with this nifty tool (thank you RazorX).

thank you but in the future please provide the actual theme png's instead please, it will save me manually extracting them :)
would you like me to add them to my theme manager for everyone to use? also do you know you can make hd themes now?

Point taken!

And yes feel free to add them - and no, I have no idea about HD themes (I assume I need to update your tool and catch up on some reading).

Thanks again for making GDMENU eminently customisable.

yes make sure you use the latest version and it's had a ton of updates as well as hd themes added which look amazing if i do say so myself :D

Reuploaded 'GDMenu Theme Manager v1.8e' with an update to my 'GDMenu Theme Preview Generator' which will allow you to convert the selected theme to the OpenMenu version of the GDMenu theme.

Image

To do this you simply click the 'Hide Info' button until you have hidden the disc info and game list and you will then see the 'OpenMenu' button is enabled, You can then click it to convert that theme into the OpenMenu format which is bg_l.pvr and bg_r.pvr.
You can find these in the 'OpenMenu' folder that comes with my app.
