Sentinel [VP]

[VCVC]

My new Theme - Sentinel. tested with kugel's build and official rockbox.
The AA version uses bmp resize patch. for more accurate menu positioning both versions can use Custom List/Menu patch if the custom build has it, but the theme will work just fine without it.
hope you like it and please comment.

- Update 16.1.2008: Converted to Viewports.
- Update 31.3.2008: Updated to work on Official Rockbox.
- Update 6.7.2008: Updated to work with the latest Rockbox changes.
- Update 8.7.2008: Updated the Custom List code (for menu positioning).
- Update 3.9.2008: Replaced the fonts to comply with the recent rockbox fonts cleanup.

Just tested it, and it looks nice. The "Now Playing" "Track Information" and "Time and Date" look a little small and are slightly hard to read, but aside from that, I like it.

Impressive.... most impressive.

Very nice. Love your choice of album for the example. One of the best CDs of 2007.

Thanks ,worked hard on it. I am honour that you dedicated your first post for my theme.
And i agree, Symphony X are one of the best progressive metal bands today.

This skin became my default one I really like it, but I noticed one little bug with it (don't know a better word). The thick graphics above the timeline representing the volume don't appear correctly. The uppermost one disappears alright, but when I further lower the volume the remaining ones stay. Not a very important detail, just thought I'd mention it to you

Keep on making such beautiful themes!

Thanks, glad you like it.
but can you explain the bug you encounterd, do the three bottom bars dosent disappear for you when you lower the volume? cause when i lower the volume, the three bottom bars do disappear till there are none left.
tested it on my sansa and on the simulator and it worked fine. so im wondering whats wrong.

[boardlord]

You got it right. But, if its ok with you, something must be wrong on my end. I am using chris' build (6 Sept.) will check with others!

Thanks

For those who had problems with the non AA Sentinel theme with recent updates - its now fixed. (tested on kugel's build)

[steviep]

thank you
now i can finally use the newest version of kugel build again

edit: i tried 7-zip and universal file extractor but they both say the wps file is not a supported archive...do you think it got corrupted somehow?
any chance you could repost the regular sentinel theme (without album-art)
thanks

[VCVC]

I put a maximum compression to the zip file by mistake.
hope this one will work for you:

[steviep]

it unzipped just fine now
thanks

What was the problem?

[VCVC]

I guess something was changed in the Scrolling text margin patch, because now every line needs the %s%m|x1|x2| tag.
before the change, i used it only in the lines that the patch was needed in.
the SentinelAA already uses the tag in every line so it works fine.

Very slick, futuristic-looking theme. It's obvious you put a lot of work into this. Cool to see it's been updated to work with the latest custom builds.

[VCVC]

Thanks.

[VCVC]

Updated a few things.

Can you you split artist/title/album into 3 lines? There's enough space, no need to make for 2 items 1 line.
