Theme not working on newest Steam Version

[PoorPocketsMcNewHold]

Quite the important number of information on this screenshot, but I'll describe it.

• Installed and applied the Steam Skin (you can notice the added Dracula entry if you hardly distinguish the color skins of the steam UI).
• Ran the install.sh script successfully. You can notice, on the bottom right, that the files were correctly modified. The added custom.css, the 5.css renamed to steam5.css to allow for both files to be loaded.
• Also, while the current opened steam\steamui\css folder, and files has been opened after Steam *(To confirm that Steam haven't verified those, and replaced those files), You can see the Library Interface hasn't been modified in any way. You can also notice, on the terminal on the top, that Steam has been properly started with the -noverifyfiles parameter.
• You can notice some theming errors in the logs, making me believe that the custom theme .css has something wrong. (But I don't know if it is worth pointing just some CSS variables, or just as another nail in the coffin of people making Steam skins)

Not working at all with the latest Steam version :'(

EDIT : Ok it was because 5.css has been renamed to 6.css

Hello, would this be fixed soon or is there any workaround until a PR is made?

[tintinmaster]

It looks like the current version is broken. It probably will not be fixed till after Christmas :disappointed:

[Jetspectre]

Thank you for the response, I wish you a Merry Christmas!

@Jetspectre As a workaround you can use my branch if you don't mind the main color being purple instead of the current pink :) There's also a fix included which apply the theme to the initial loading page ;)

Would have been a better idea to push request your changes, minor the aesthetics ones which differ from the dracula colorscheme.

Sure, but I'm honestly too lazy to do it. The color change regarding the loading page isn't a color swap in the config, there are "handpicked" colors (as the steam logo originally have three shades of blue in it, replaced by the purple from the dracula colorscheme + one lighter and darker version of it to replicate the original behavior) and I'm not interested in doing that for the pink color.

Would have been even better to use scss and make use of lighten(), darken(), saturate() and desaturate() functions, which would make accent color swapping far easier, but same issue : too lazy unfortunately.

Minor note : my changes do not differ from the dracula colorscheme, it just swap the pink color accent to purple, which I could argue is the right one.

@koplo199 Many thanks, love the purple!

[tintinmaster]

@koplo199 I really like your changes, especially the loading page. Purple looks very good, and I even think now it's better fitting as an accent colour. Therefore, I will happily merge the changes :vampire: .

Merry Christmas :christmas_tree:

@tintinmaster Awesome, I'm glad you like it!

Merry Christmas to you too :christmas_tree:
