General / Re: No layouts working in Displays View

« on: April 28, 2020, 05:07:38 AM »

Configure-->Displays-->'Displays Menu' Options-->Menu Style / Layout = <layout_you_want>

Yup, that's exactly where I started. No matter which layout I choose in this location, I get the same basic layout of white letters on black background.

All my other displays work fine when changing layouts.

General / No layouts working in Displays View

« on: April 27, 2020, 05:31:27 PM »

Hi all,

Looking to pretty up the Displays View but no themes seem to work. All I ever get is a vertical list of my displays in large white on black letters.

I'm versed in display editing and have all my various displays working well.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Very nice, may I ask where did you find the gameplay videos? They look much better than the ones I saw on emumovies...

These are the EmuMovies videos, but the image I made for the layout adds a Game-Boy-green tint to them to make them look more authentic.

Themes / Game Boy theme (based on Robospin)

« on: July 02, 2019, 07:27:27 AM »

Hi All,

I wanted to make a Game Boy theme based on the awesome Robospin layout by Omegaman.

Here it is in action: https://youtu.be/2v7uoiCSbms

You can download my files here: http://hallwayorchard.com/gameboy.zip

Note: your System Identifier needs to be set to "GameBoy" for this to work out of the box. Otherwise, edit the .png file in layouts/gameboy/ backgrounds/ directory to match your identifier.

Hope you like it!

Cheers

UPDATE:

Looks like I was struggling for nothing. Since MAME is executable from any location from the command line, all I needed was to delete any path reference.

I changed my settings to:

Code: [Select]

Executable:   mame
And now everything seems to be working!

Thanks for the reply... yes, Snap is in my root.  I went against convention and installed MAME via the new(ish) Snappy deployment mechanism.  That is where everything ends up.

General / Executable path on Ubuntu 18.04

« on: June 14, 2019, 06:21:50 AM »

Hi All,

I am in the process of using AM for a frontend for MAME 0.209 on Ubuntu 18.04.

I *think* I am well along in the process; AM has generated the list of roms, however I cannot seem to launch roms from AM.  I have tested and can launch them from MAME.

Here is how I've got the emulator set up in AM:

Code: [Select]

Executable: /snap/mame/1122/mame
Command Arguments: "[romfilename]"

I'm assuming I'm messing something up in these two fields.  Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks!
