Themes not working anymore on RetroGo 1.40

[explit28]

In the past it was necessary just to copy the themes to the Retro-Go Themes folder and it worked.
Now, the structure is changed and each theme need an theme.json file
See here: https://github.com/ducalex/retro-go/blob/master/THEMING.md

Could you please update the themes with the needed theme.json files ?

Thanks

@explit7, you can just put the example JSON from https://github.com/ducalex/retro-go/blob/master/THEMING.md in the folder(s).
Might want to adjust some colors though.

I might or might not open a PR for the missing bg and logos for the pixel theme..

Thanks for your reply, but could you point me, where the example.json is? I cant find it in the repo.
Maybe you can share your json?

Thank you very much.

@explit7, there is no file example.json in the retro-go repo.

But there is some json on THEMING.md that can just be pastet into an empty file in the theme folder(s).

However, it is even simpler than that:
All fields in theme.json are optional.
Just create a file called theme.json and put an opening and a closing curly bracket in there.
Put that file in each of your theme directories.
Done.

You'll have the default color options that you already know.

This is my minimal theme.json
Maybe it could be better. But it works for me
