I'm trying to add the layout following the instructions and it looks as though everything is done correctly however the layout does not work. All artwork loads fine when using default layouts, but for At-The-Arcade Multi-Cab I just get some wrong res snap images in the background and the standard menu list stretched across the screen. No options appear in the layout options menu, just the layout name. Any ideas? I'm pretty new to this so most likely something stupid.

   layout               At-The-Arcade Multi-Cab Master

This looks suspicious - it should be:
   layout               At-The-Arcade Multi-Cab

what is the path of the layout? It should be:
attract\layouts\At-The-Arcade Multi-Cab

 ::) Thank you. My screen tired brain had copied the whole extracted folder into the layouts rather than the just the At-The-Arcade Multi-Cab layout folder.

The theme looks and sounds amazing. Big thanks to yourself and all the contributors!

Can't wait to explore it more.

I have select in options of the theme, to show as background artwork photo of every game. Some games doesnt have artwork photo, so it shows black background to them. Is there any way (it would be cool this option) when there isn't artwork, to show the live wallpaper of the original at the arcade wallpaper, as background.
Thanks,

Does the layout have the option to show the display name, or show artwork based on the display name?

I have managed to get the display name into the info bar by replacing the info and enumerate code with:

Code: [Select]
function dname()
 {
    local current_display = fe.displays[fe.list.display_index];
return current_display.name;
 }

// Current game out of total number of games
filter = fe.add_text( "[!dname]", x_filter, fly*0.917, flw*0.4, flh*0.1 );
filter.align = Align.Right;
filter.charsize = font_size-4;
filter.set_rgb(255, 120, 0);
}

Just wanted to check there isn't a way to do this already before I go hacking away any further :)

Thanks,

If you mean that you have set the layout option 'Select background image' to 'Fanart' or 'Flyer', it doesn't show a black image when there is no game art available - it just shows a static image of an Arcade hall (just double checked it).

Not at this moment but customize it as much as you want

Thanks for the reply! I cant figure out what is the problem then.. For the games that there isn't a fanart , I got a black backround. What is the name of static image of an Arcade hall ? Is it "bkg_base.jpg" ?  I suppose it doesn't find this jpg. What folder should be in?
Edit I tried At-The-Arcade Flex also , same problem.
I also copy bkg_base.jpg from theme folder to fanart folder (where all fanart jpg are and working) just in case but no luck..
I tried in 2 pc. Thanks,

Try converting bkg_base.jpg to png format, delete the jpg and try again.
What OS are you using?
