I highly encourage you all to tweak the themes yourself, at the end of the day I developed this theme mostly for myself and so some of the decisions might not be great for everyone.
If you want to change stuff you have to edit the .qss files, these files follow the Qt Stylesheet format which is basically CSS with some minor changes
If you want to know how to edit these files you can look up a lot of info on the MDN Web Docs. The docs are great for learning the basics, but a lot of CSS features just don’t work in qss. So, of something doesn’t work you will have to look it up in the official Qt Style Sheets Reference. But these are not as detailed, well-written & organized as the MDN Web Docs and don’t come with live code demos.
What I am trying to say is look it up in the MDN Web Docs if the solution from there does not work look it up on the Qt Style Sheets Reference.
I have also added some comments to the files to make them a bit easier to navigate.
Thank you for this. I recently switch from Vortex to MO2 and while I love all the features from MO2 I don't really like the UI. It looks like something from window xp, window 7 era. This theme fix that.
For those wanting to use the dark version but would prefer the text to not appear as big and bold as it does now, perhaps give this tweaked .qss file a go. Here is a screenshot of the tweaks in action (ignore the odd colour of the icons. switching themes multiple times to refresh my tweaks bugged them out until i restarted MO2). It is by no means perfect. It was done rather hastily to my liking within the first 5 or so minutes of trying this theme out. You will of course still need memphis2's main file for the icons to work.
All I've done is tweak a few pt sizes and font weighting values so that most of them now appear at 9pt with a font weighting of 400 instead of 600 (400 appears to be regular weighting).
Anyone can open up these kinds of files up themselves using notepad++ if they wish to tweak things their own way. In fact, I encourage folks to do so as it can be quite fun messing around with css styling. w3schools is a good free source of learning for such things.
Great design. Now my favourite theme for MO2. I have customised the dark theme a little and put it up here: https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/62830 Thanks for allowing people to upload modified versions.
like the dark theme and im an old blind user so the bigger fonts work for me, at least i can see what the heck is on the app now. granted a tad bit large but *shrug* i can still read it :) seriously like the themes.
