Re: Asteroid OS Watchface frenzy

Not quite exactly what @saba requested, but here are the recreations of the Jolla watchfaces from their mwc2017 presentation.
Before i push them to my repo i am going to ask James how to properly credit jolla since they are almost exact copies from their work. Also it would be nice to get permission to distribute the wallpaper with the watchface. Lets see :)

Here the originals:

haha, thanks for the flowers.
I think that will not happen too soon because kido got more important decisions to make atm.
They (dev-team) made some general design decisions regarding the whole ui last year and i do not even know if that decision process is already finished.
Currently, the stock watchfaces are all really simplistic and i can see why mine break the currently intended guidelines quite a bit.
I have 5 more in the works which are all intended to be more straight forward and reworked all of the earlier ones for better readability.
So, yes, it would be great honor if the dev team decides to put some of them into v1.0 release or even nightlys but i am also fine with sideloading them.

I made this script to deploy the watchfaces. just place it in the unofficial-watchface folder after pulling from github.
It will selectively copy the watchfaces, fonts and wallpapers to a connected watch.
Also attached, my personal favourite watchfaces of the unreleased batch, planned for next week after some weekend coding.
And i got a photographer friend to send me some background images he is willing to release under gpl v2.1.

Code:

#!/bin/bash



PS3='Deploy watchface #) or quit with any other key) '



unset options i

while IFS= read -r -d $'\0' f; do

  options[i++]="$f"

done < <(find */ -maxdepth 0 -type d -print0 )



select opt in "${options[@]}"



do

        if [ -e $opt/usr/share/asteroid-launcher/watchfaces/ ]

      then

            scp $opt/usr/share/asteroid-launcher/watchfaces/* root@192.168.2.15:/usr/share/asteroid-launcher/watchfaces/

          else

                  break

      fi



        if [ -e $opt/usr/share/asteroid-launcher/wallpapers/ ]

      then

        scp $opt/usr/share/asteroid-launcher/wallpapers/* root@192.168.2.15:/usr/share/asteroid-launcher/wallpapers/

      fi



         if [ -e $opt/usr/share/fonts/ ]

      then

        scp $opt/usr/share/fonts/* root@192.168.2.15:/usr/share/fonts/

      fi



done

Re: Asteroid OS Watchface frenzy

Wow \0/
@mosen you are Awesome to make watchfaces. I will like see a watchface on Big-Pixel-Simulated.

Re: Asteroid OS Watchface frenzy

Nice to see you appreciate them!
Only two more watchfaces i come up with else i am relying on your ideas :)
One will be a trollish (as kido called it) copy of the original pulp fiction watch, which is really hard technically for the complicated clock arms.
Th other one is a readability optimize "tactical" analog watch with neon clock arms.

I searched around and could not find matches for "Big-Pixel-Simulated", so i don't quite understand.
Do you mean like "Low Bit / 8 Bit Pixel Arts" or "Low Poly"?

Re: Asteroid OS Watchface frenzy

Something like this... ;)
Using nice colors: Cyan,Magent,Amber,Violet,Cerulean as example will look beautiful
Asteroid logo is on big Pixel too.

Re: Asteroid OS Watchface frenzy

here you are ;)

It was a bit challenging to adapt the black background theme to AsteroidOS wallpaper ux and i am not perfectly happy with the bars.
Maybe i will stroke them with a gradient so they fade to zero opacity on the left and right edges.
Also the colors might get some optimization, maybe you have suggestions like date = magenta, or alike :)

Re: Asteroid OS Watchface frenzy

\0/ @mosen you are the best on it really.
I want to give Redbull & Pizza's for you nice work.

Re: Asteroid OS Watchface frenzy

Yeap the bars lines not look very well. a solid black background will highlight the colors of the clock.This will look ok with "black-background with cyan/or amber"
