UPDATE: I have fixed the SDAMax v1.1 layout.  It should work fine on a Pi3 or PC now (probably Mac too but I have no idea)...

All I had to do was change a fe.load_module command to a fe.do_nut command.  100% my fault for not completely understanding what was going on.

The new updated file is marked with an "f" (for fixed) and can be downloaded in the OP above or at this link:

Again,  my apologies guys!  I am learning...

UPDATE: I am an idiot (acutally,  that's not much of an update but whatever).  Apparently I'd put the carrier.nut file in the modules folder of 2.3.0 a long time ago and forgot about it.  All this time I thought it was loading from the scripts folder ... nope... the reason it works out of the box on the ARpiCADE is because Dee2er,  the ARpiCADE guy puts that carrier module in the modules folder for their release...

SO,  now i get to figure out how to force the layout to load the script from the layouts scripts folder... and then update those modules.

Until then,  all anyone who wants to get those layouts to work has to do is copy the carrier.nut file from the scripts folder to the modules folder.

My apologies for the confusion.

Yes... I am a hack.

Well I am a bit of a dummy.  It appears that I ... at some point ... put the carrier.nut script in my MODULES folder... and I thought I was loading the carrier.nut from the script that is in the layout.  Evidently not.   Time to do a little updating (may take a little time I am swamped)... but until then to fix this issue all you have to do is add the carrier.nut file from the scripts folder to the modules folder...

My apologies for my "hack" issues...

I have a semi-fix for SDAMax... but not the SDArcade layouts... to get this to work with 2.5.1 on the PC (it works on the Pi3?!?)... all you have to do is copy the carrier.nut file from the scripts subfolder in the layout to the modules folder.   Not sure why that's necessary as it works PERFECTLY FINE on older versions of Attract-Mode with the carrier.nut file just sitting in the scripts folder within the layout?!

UPDATE:  If I move the conveyor.nut from my scrips folder (which worked before) and put it in the MODULE folder... it seems to work... MOSTLY. 

SDAMax now seems to work... however the SDArcade layouts appear to still be partially broke.  It appears the x and y coordinates for the location of the "carrier" isn't working right simply putting the carrier at 0,0 it appears...

SMALL UPDATE: Actually, the ARpiCADE 3.83 includes Attract-Mode 2.5.1... so oddly the layouts work fine with the Pi3 version 2.5.1. but are utterly broke using the PC version of 2.5.1...

Does that make sense at all?

 :o

Found all past releases (durr)... I will spend some time tonight trying to determine at which version the layouts broke.  I suspect it may be the latest as I am currently running 2.5.0 on my Pi3 without issue using the layouts in question.

...and I can now confirm that the original SDArcade version is also broke.

What is strange is that the SDARcade versions all are broke but will load up and show the marquee, etc... whereas my SDAMax layouts are so broke that the "default" menu comes up...

ALL work great in 2.3.0.

HELP!

General / Attract-Mode 2.5.1 Breaks My Layouts - [UPDATE - NO IT DOESNT]
« on: January 11, 2019, 05:34:05 PM »
Attract-Mode 2.5.1 breaks a number of my layouts.  It appears that the CARRIER module is not working properly in 2.5.1... I can say FOR SURE that it works in 2.3.0... and unfortunately I do not have any versions between 2.3.0 and 2.5.1 to determine exactly when the issue arises.

Can someone point me to where i can find the versions between 2.3.0 and 2.5.1 to test?

Anyone know knows more than I willing to poke around my layouts to see why they are broke on 2.5.1?

The layouts in question are:

SDArcade v2+ (I have not had time to test the original version yet,  but I am confident it too will be broken as it appears the issue is with the CARRIER module).
SDAMax v1 and v1.1

Can someone tell me the official way to report this issue to the author (if there is one)?

Thanks!

It appears that the new version of Attract-Mode has a problem with the CARRIER module that this layout ... and SDArcade layout uses?!

Again,  at this point,  I am going to need some help to determine why ... or anyone wanting to use the SDarcade layout (any of them) or this SDAMax layout will have to use an older version of attract mode.

Can someone point me to an "official" way to let the author of Attract-Mode know this is happening?

Heck,  it appears that the new version breaks my SDArcade layout... as well as the older versions of it as well...

At this point,  unless someone can help me determine what is broken,  your only option would be to use an older version of Attract-Mode.

:(

I can confirm this layout is NOT working on 2.5.1 version of attract-mode... but it works fine on 2.3.0...

Now to figure out why?!?  To be honest,  I have ZERO idea where to even start.  Can anyone chime in as to why a module would work in 2.3.0 fine but 2.5.1 breaks it?

EDIT:  BTW ... the Pi3 version I am using I believe is the version that came our before 2.5.1... and it works.

Make sure that the zip file expanded directly in to the folder...

IE: make sure that LAYOUT.NUT is in the "layouts/SDAMAX" folder  and there isn't an extra folder in there ala "layouts/SDAMAX/SDAMAX"

If you find that there is an extra SDAMAX folder in the original SDAMAX folder... just move it's contents up to the first SDAMAX folder.


Let me know if that helps.

I've checked the folders and they seem ok, I'm attaching a picture. Will keep researching. thanks!

Welp,  that is where it's supposed to be.  It's working on my Pi and my older version of attract mode.  I guess I get to upgrade to see whats going on.

Hi, I'm new to this forum, this is my first post.

I'm trying to use this theme SDMAX v1.1 with no success, not sure what I'm doing wrong. I've decompressed the .zip file to the 'layouts' folder and selected the theme inside attract mode menu. I can see that the theme is applied but with missing things like logos, marquees, text, and a huge font. I've attached a screenshot.
I'm new to attract mode, but I've used other front ends in the past (maximus, hyperspin, mala).

I would like to thank the creator of this great theme!
