Windows & PS3 Theme (plus Lightning!)

[Abriael]

In the new file, is the audio not there? or does it only work for windows 7?

There's only one audio file for when you close windows. The rest is all default windows sounds.

Abriael, I linked your article in the Beta forums too (Reinheart thread). In your article, it says to create a subfolder "THEMES". That actually needs to be "THEME" (singular) or the PS3 won't find it. ^^

Righto, my mistake there Thanks for catching it.

OMG thank you! It now appears in my themes and I can select it. How do I switch between background/wallpaper pics though? First Midlander was there, now a Roe ... does it just change like a slide show? Not much happening. I was hoping to just choose one of the images as a wallpaper. What else does it do?

It's a slideshow set to change wallpaper every 30 minutes. If you click on "desktop wallpaper" you can customize the time, and uncheck the wallpapers you don't want. If you want only one, just uncheck all the others

Again, thanks! I've deselected the pics to leave the one background on my PC. I don't see a way of doing this on the PS3. No matter - not like I leave the thing on (like PC) or that even when it's on, that I'll have the wallpaper showing

Yeah, I don't think you can change it on the PS3 at all.

Quick instructions for getting the desktop pictures on Macs, FYI:

　1. Download the themepack file.
　　　* The filename is "FINAL FANTASY XIV-A Realm Reborn.themepack".
　2. Download a program called The Unarchiver. More info on its product site.
　3. Drag the themepack file onto The Unarchiver application icon.
　　　* This creates a folder called "FINAL FANTASY XIV-A Realm Reborn".
　4. The desktop images are inside that folder, in the "DesktopBackground" folder.
　　　* The images are 1920x1200 in size (16:10 aspect ratio).

Instead of doing this you can just rename the FINAL FANTASY XIV-A Realm Reborn.themepack to FINAL FANTASY XIV-A Realm Reborn.rar and extract them with Winrar. 7zip works too. And I imagine any other program that can extract files.

The problem is indeed that there are reference to Japanese files in the theme. Either western operating systems can't read them, or they simply can't find them in your system.

I fixed it real quick. You can grab it here while Square Enix gets around fixing their own file.

Abriels worked well for me. Although instead of using it I conbined all the stuff from this theme pack(wallpapers), the older theme pack(sounds, wallpapers) and the theme I use and love for the windows menus.

Me too! The first theme released back in May (the Win8/IE10 collaboration) had two wallpapers and 7 sounds, while this one had 7 wallpapers and one sound (a sound that already came with the first theme, so it wasn't anything new). I just put the new wallpapers in the DesktopBackground folder of the old theme and combined them for super fantasticness!

Edit: Now that they've fixed the NA theme, it appears that what seemed to be only one sound was actually an unzipped soundpack. There are 11 sounds with the new theme, and some of them are redone and fit better with the ARR sound scheme.

[Nikkita]

Can you still get the old Theme with the additional sounds?
