Last is Video View which is virtually identical to Detailed View, except it can display videos. There is also the Detailed View that displays the list of games that do have metadata (images, descriptions, genre, etc). Then you have the Basic View which displays a list of games that don't have any metadata. This is the one with the carousel of system. The first View you see when you start ES is the System View. In regards to the Views, EmulationStation uses different Views to display different data. You then need to remove those comments from around the Vertical carousel code. To view the Vertical carousel you need to comment out the Horizontal carousel code by putting after the code. The BaseVid theme has code for both of these carousels, but you can't have them both active at once because they will conflict with each other and can break your theme, so the Vertical carousel is commented out. The Carousel Mod lets you have a Horizontal carousel so you cycle the logos left and right (like the default carousel), or you can have a Vertical carousel that lets you cycle the logos up and down. These are used for lots of things, like making notes about a section of code, or for keeping a copy of working code while testing new code. That means that the system doesn't read them, and the don't interfere with anything else. Lines 84-107 in the basvid.xml file are "commented out". I don't mean to be, but without knowing your level of coding knowledge, I'll have to dumb things down a bit just in case you don't know anything about it. If it sounds like I'm being condescending, I'm sorry. Hey How much knowledge do you have of any kind of basic coding, like HTML, CSS or MXL? If you know HTML it makes things easier for me to explain because you'll be more likely to know what some words mean when I say them. ![]() If you want to see the previous thread for the Toolkit, you can find it here.

The Toolkit still provides Images and Video for the supplied Roms. *NO ROMS or copyrighted content are included in this repository!
