New theme AMFlash, preview.
« on: September 13, 2019, 04:05:32 PM »
Copy of Hyperflash theme (HyperSpin) adapted to Attract Mode. It's not an exact copy because I didn't have the original file (PSD, Photohsop), so the image structure and all effects were recreated.
List of items that have been added and removed in the theme.


Removed:
- Display Favorites.
- Display All Games.
- Command Shell Rebuilder Favorites.

Added:
- Dark AMFLash theme (LAVA).
- Added wide format in snap (video) for some systems.
- Resolution set to 1920 x 1080


Considerations:
I should add some more features to finish the AMFlash theme. In my tests, it seems that everything is working perfectly. I would like to add a function that exists in hyperspin that random mode of selecting the game (cycling). Here's a link to better understand.

It has not yet been developed for AM, and I did not find anything here in the forum related to this. If anyone knows please let me know.
I should only return to this topic when the final version is ready.

Follow the link of the new video.

NOTE: HyperFlash was developed by Semcranio.

Update. Some screenshots.



The coin insertion program in AM did not work. And I didn't find anything about it either. I had to abandon this idea.  :(

Not bad, but i think you put too many "wheels" on the screen.
You should put an option to choose the number of wheels and another to choose the background color. The red for neogeo is very good, but for other systems not so much.
The systems counter would put it where the coins or in another location. Not in the frame of the video.
It is my personal opinion. You don't have to listen to me...

Thanks so much for your sincere opinions on iOtero but the options related to wheels exist. It was just a screenshot, when publishing the video the options will be displayed. On the system counter ... on the other screen that will display the games, the filter listing will appear along with the amount of games applied to the given filter. In order for the display not to be blank in the Display Menu, I set the system counter. It would be good also the suggestion that you gave in the coin counter but I abandoned this option because I could not find any program that performed this function in AM. In some forums it is discussed that there is a script that performs this function in advmenu, finally there is a topic here in the forum talking about it.

http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?topic=317.0

Returning to the subject, this theme is based on hyperflash from the "semcranio" to the hyperspin frontend. I added some options that did not exist in the original and renamed it to "AMFlash". I don't want to add too many options so as not to escape the essence of the old theme. This theme is for Widescreen (16: 9) monitors.

I should not make any more changes to the layout. As soon as I finish adding some scripts, I post a new video. ;D

I came across some problems with this theme, and ended up adding other functions and images. So the long delay.

Here is a new video with some screenshots.  ;D

I was thinking of adding another animated message, but I have nothing in mind.
I accept suggestions. :)

This is the prototype of the second theme (Zoom).


 I must make another one in the dark version called Black Flash. Totaling 3 themes.

I like the work you are doing importing this theme to AM. When do you plan on releasing?

I have some animation ideas in my head that I want to apply to the theme. This type of work takes time and is not always perfect, so I will test it until it is cool. Something I would really like to add is the cycling effect it has on HyperSpin and RetroFE. But from what I've been reading, AM doesn't support this effect.

As you can see, it took me months to get back to this topic. I only returned because I pulled out 4 wisdom teeth and I'm soaking at home. So I took the opportunity to continue the theme that I want to put on my Bartop. I bought it 4 months ago and I haven't even assembled it due to lack of time. But back to the subject ... I want to add another animation effect and add two more features to the theme. Finished I make available.

I was asked why I am wasting time converting this theme to AM. First, because I would like to demonstrate that AM is a light and powerful frontend, that it is possible to convert and "add new features". And that is exactly what I did. The version of Hyperflash does not have the features that AMFlash does.

Finishing the "AMFlash", I go on to another project also related to conversion.

Impossible to please everyone. For example, my brother doesn't like the theme I converted, but he likes the package that Yaron2019 launched. Each has a certain type of taste or preference. If I can please only one person, then I'm happy. After all, that means I don't taste too bad.  ;D

I must say that your brother has exquisite taste. ;)

I like what you are doing. Will keep an eye for the release.
