General / InstantSheller in Win7 - Need to Hide Batch Command Prompt
« on: February 14, 2018, 07:50:15 PM »
I have InstantSheller working to shell to a batch file to launch Attract Mode as instructed here. Want to take this a step further and hide the launching of the batch file which is visible just before AM loads. This is cosmetic but makes a difference with presentation in a cab build.

Been reading about how to achieve this for other applications and have been unsuccessful. What is mentioned is to edit the batch file to run it minimized. Or the other way is to use a VBS script to launch the batch file; thus the batch file shall be hidden by the VBS script. I have been unsuccessul in applying either method. I really know nothing about scripting other than following the work layed down by others and copy/pasting. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Themes / SOLVED: Nevato Theme - Missing cab graphic
« on: January 22, 2018, 07:22:58 AM »
SOLUTION:  In this case, the problem was solved by updating Windows default WDDM driver for the Radeon HD4000 series video card to Calamity's CRT_Emu drivers as this build is intended for installation into a 15khz CGA resolution arcade cab. Currently running 1600x1200 resolution. But don't expect any further issues as I drop down to 640x480 for arcade cab installation.

Hi All,

I am trying to make the transition from HyperSpin. Participated heavily over there until I got into arcade collecting and now would like to move to Attract Mode. I am having issues with Nevato. I am missing the cab, background (fanart), wheel. Attached is what things look like for MAME. My configurations are below.

Help! Thanks!
