Title: pandoras box 5 "release" by jedione
Post by: jedione on August 12, 2018, 12:49:40 PM
ok as promised... :D

here is my new theme...seems like there never 100% ready

name = pandoras box 5

based on  = 960 in 1 jamma board pcb

included: is the start up video to complete the feel! place it in the "intro folder"

navigation = up-down by game or,,,,,,  left & right for afabetic letter skip.

for this theme in needs the latest AM build 2.4
because it is using the new "blend mode" for the bg-smoke affect.

also grab a copy of the shuffle module here http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?topic=1872.msg13023#msg13023 (http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?topic=1872.msg13023#msg13023)

thanks to keilmillerjr for the shuffle module.
thanks to zpaolo11x for your blur-code, aka-ambiaunce-blur

layout options include:

#1 clasic background or new ambiaunce-background   ,,,set to videos
IE" "  artwork    video      C:\arcadesd\mame\mame0.180\roms\vertshmups\art "

#2 music folder , set layout music to your chioce "music-1,music-2,music-3,none,"

#3 not every one is going to want a theme that say's pandoras box 5 !
all the time.
so the last option is a logo change from pandoras.png logo to "marquees"
to keep it very arcade friendly.

#4 trade videos for snaps in the preview box.


notes: best when played full screen.

if you can help make this better, please do and thanks for making AM the best FE out..

final youtube preview

After add shuffle module:

Seems to be a "resolution screen issue" try diferent windows resolutions.

Also you need to rebuild your romlist with aditional information from some xml database or maybe thegamedb to show real game names , not zip ones.
