Hey guys, sorry to clutter this sub with a request, but I've been struggling with editing this theme for months now with little success. I've got to give it a little background as to why I'm editing the pretty much perfect RB2 theme though, so bear with me here:
We feel like the song menu layout isn't the absolute best for this kind of thing.
This is what we have right now, and it's obviously cobbled together. We've used the "Album" meta-data as the game title meta-data, and the "Genre" meta-data as the console the game originally came out for. Well, we'd really like if we could list the "Album" meta-data alongside the song title like in this mock-up we did:
That way the con-goers can scan the list for the games they like/know, and then see if the songs they're looking for are present, by series instead of by song title alone.
Is it possible to do something like this? If so, how do we put this data next to the song title data and keep it displayed even while it's not selected (like the song titles)? Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, or if the wording doesn't make much sense, it's super late and I'm really frustrated with it.
{The Explanation}Long story short, my band and I, as well as some friends of ours, are volunteering to host a Phase Shift party at a local video game convention. They didn't want to have Guitar Hero or Rock Band since neither of them are 'retro' enough, so we offered to author up a custom setlist of (mostly) retro video game songs in Phase Shift, even going as far as getting multitrack stems for each and every track on the list for added authenticity. They agreed and all was well. We've got a ton of work on this done already in terms of playable content, but...
