Title: Attract Mode 2.1.0.exe vs. 2.2.1.exe MISSING RANDOM FEATURE
Post by: mothra on March 01, 2017, 04:46:37 AM

Hello Devs!

I miss an important Feature (maybe it was not on purpose) but it worked with Attract Mode 2.1.0(exe) very well:

Randomizing Videos or Boxart were i have diffent Intro Videos for one System or different Boxart for one Game/Rom (Europe, USA).

Example System Video: Atari2600.mp4, Atari2600..mp4, Atari2600...mp4, Atari2600....mp4
will randomize 4 System Intro Videos.

Example Boxart: Altbeast.png, Altbeast..png
will randomize 2 Boxarts.

BUT NOT ANYMORE with Attract Mode 2.2.1.exe  >:(

Try putting all the artworks in a single directory that matches the name...

So:
Atari2600/Atari2600.mp4
Atari2600/Atari2600..mp4
etc...

Altbeast/Altbeast.png
Altbeast/Altbeast..png
etc...

Thank you Admin!  :D

It's working again by putting it in a directory!

Now i have my 10+ promotion/commercial videos per system randomized again!
...and the System Boxart with different released Boxes.

and the roms were you have only one rom release (Europe, Japan and America) for example: NGPocket switches randomly between 3 Boxarts.

THANK YOU ;D
