Scripting / Re: [Plugin WIP] SumatraPDF reader (only for windows)

« Last post by kent79 on Today at 08:57:39 PM »

Just for testing , ONLY WORK ON WINDOWS BUILD.

Its really easy to use , just decompress in the main AM folder.
Download Sumatrapdf portable.

https://www.sumatrapdfreader.org/dl/SumatraPDF-3.1.2.zip

Put exe on "plugins\SumatraPDF\SumatraPDF.exe"

And pdf manuals like:

plugins\SumatraPDF\Game Manuals\Atari 2600\Basketball (USA).pdf

Changing "Atari 2600" for your emulator name.

*IMPORTANT* Decompress on the main AM instalation folder.


P.D. Maybe someone with more "squirrel skills" can improve the code and add the manual image found.
I´ve tried but failed 

Not working. Is it missing any instruction ?

Scripting / Re: Display Specific Screensaver

« Last post by kent79 on Today at 08:56:45 PM »

Does anyone know if its possible to make each display have its own video screensaver? When using a video with screensaver.nut, it shows the same screensaver on every display.

Create artwork folder. Change each display video name as your systems name. Then put its all in  artwork folder.

Hi atrfate,

I bypassed RLUI/PCLauncher by using this very simple windows_games.cfg to launch a game directly, and still got the same issue. So it doesn't appear to be related to RLUI after all.

Code: [Select]

# Generated by Attract-Mode v2.2.0-1
#
executable           cmd
args                 /c "[romfilename]"
rompath              C:\NesicaXlive\Games\windows_games
romext               .lnk;.bat;
system               PC
info_source          thegamesdb.net
artwork    flyer           $HOME/windows_games/boxart
artwork    marquee         
artwork    snap            $HOME/windows_games/videos;$HOME/windows_games/snap
artwork    wheel           

Hello
ı made like this.
Games are starting with this method but the attractmode is still working at the backround, and you can hear the music of the Snap Videos.
I mean normally when you enter the game attractmode menu is paused and you only can play the game. But with this method, it is still working backround. there will be 2 sounds. Game sound and menu sound.
What should i do ?

1. Open layout.nut go to fe.layout.preserve_aspect_ratio = true; and  change "true" with "false''

2. Yes.

3. I do not think it will disappear.

That's clever too. I'd seen that setting but didn't make the connection.

Thanks guys!

I will report on results.

A quick fix for me was adding this line to the emulator.cfg

Code: [Select]

minimum_run_time     10
Maybe you have to incease to 20, 30...

Good suggestion, I will give that a shot tonight. Thanks!

AHK has definitely been a lifesaver.

I am not sure. Maybe attract keeps track of the process pid? You could try launching a compiled ahk script that is a hidden process and launches your game, and exits when your actual game window closes? Just an idea of something to try.
