Themes / Re: Arcadeflow theme v 10.8 [Release] Updated 12 August 2021

Loving the theme so far! I'd like to make a feature request if possible. I'm building a vertical cabinet using a monitor tilted on its side. It would be great to use arcade machine images as the preview images. But even in vertical adaptive mode, the images are still squished. I think the images would basically be 16:9 but vertical flipped. This allows for the marquee, bezels, and controllers or coin doors to be shown on screen. It would be awesome to use this image format as previews with ArcadeFlow!

Here are some examples of some of the screenshots I am looking to use.

Here is a video overview of the project, and the website. All of the full arcade machine bezels are in 4k with retroarch and mame layout files.

I want to be perfectly honest with you. I started rewritting the theme, but in the meantime I got distracted and started experimenting with asynchronous loading of images for AttractMode. I’ve underestimated the complexity of the task and it’s taking longer as I thought it would.
Here’s a little demo and as you can see I load almost 300 snaps in 100ms while preserving smooth 60fps.

I can drop it and finish Ambience, but you have to answer it for yourself, what is more important, finishing my theme, or async image loading for AM

This is amazing, Thank you for your hard work!

You can read more on FB https://www.facebook.com/ONYXarcade/
Unfortunately there is a slow down on development (coding) side.

Yeps, I have been checking the facebook page. The last update was Jan 20th from what I can see. So I figured I would ask here. I really love all of your design work.

General / Need Help Understanding Filters and CATVER.INI in list Mame Generation

« on: January 30, 2018, 10:16:22 AM »

I am having trouble understanding what is supposed to happen utilizing additional files like CATVER.INI when generating a mame rom list using attract mode.

I was under the impression filters or categories would be "auto-generated" somehow in the filters list, but am I wrong in this assumption? Can I use the additional ini files to automatically generate these filter options inside of attract mode? Or do I need to add the filters manually?

Also, I keep reading to add the "full path" to the file in the emulator config. Does that mean the actual file itself? Or just the path the file is in.
Example 1: import_extras        /home/pi/.attract/mame-config
Example 2: import_extras        /home/pi/.attract/mame-config/catver.ini

Thanks for any help in advance!

I'm sure you've wanted it to look really minimal, but maybe adding some light semi-translucent background under the text could spice it up a little.
I've also added a little shadow under that title bar.

This looks great. I much prefer the logos contained inside of the preview image.

Will this work with the PI or in verticle mode?
