Hey JediOne,

The theme looks AMAZING on my PC; however, I am having some trouble setting it up on my RPI.

so, 1) videos aren't playing
     2) The videos are off center. In other words, the selector box is hovering in-between two videos.
     3) the flashing selector box is not covering the snap
 I attached an image showing my issue.

Keep up the great work!!!

if u look in the first post u will see i state that it will not work on the pi!
ie: the star.nut will be broke....

not for the pie:(
Title: Re: ArcadeSD theme
Post by: omegaman on June 15, 2017, 06:00:41 PM
Jedione-

For the pie, you could just add a user option to load a looping star.mpeg for the background with little overhead. It would serve the same purpose and give more depth to your theme.

Did the RPi compatible version of this get posted somewhere?  I would love to have this (as well as reference at http://arpicade.com/forums/)

Cheers!

how do i get it to show my videos there isn't anything showing in my box
Title: Re: ArcadeSD theme
Post by: jedione on October 09, 2017, 06:52:29 AM
When I made it I think I set my snaps as video,     you can edit it in the theme
or go to emulators> snes 
And edit your .cfg to

IE:  video                   c:/am/snaps

Hi jedione i have some problems running this theme on my PC no artwork is showing in the box (videos or snaps/boxes) only the wheels above work
I think it worked before but now no
I have AttractMode 2.2.1 and running on windows 10
Title: Re: ArcadeSD theme
Post by: jedione on October 26, 2017, 06:29:36 PM
under emulators > .cfg

i use this ,, pretty basic


artwork    snap            C:\AM\systems\arcadesd\snaps
artwork    wheel           C:\AM\systems\arcadesd\wheel

and it works...hope that helps

Hi, the theme is great except that when you first load attract mode, the first game that is highlighted it is missing the wheel art.  Once I scroll up and down, it shows up.  Did I miss a setting?  Thanks for any help you can provide.

Hello, I'm having the same visual issue as the picture in this post below.
--Win 10 at 1366x768 resolution.
--I have a very recent download of Attract Mode
--I put the carrier.nut from the download into the modules folder (but it was already there).
--I ran FSResizer on all the artwork

I have used this image on Pi with the Arpicade board and think it is the best one going for arcade.
It is SO easy for the young kids in the family to use since it has great simplicity.  :)
Now I would LOVE to get it set up on a MAME cabinet running win10 and a 4:3 monitor.
Currently the cab is running the default pacman maze style attract mode, with all of the screen art correctly showing up.

Thanks in advance for your help.

The Pi3 version of this layout (dubbed SDArcade) has been updated to include video snaps in the center frame... it can be had HERE (https://www.amazon.com/clouddrive/share/6xma32C5m3AU2SxWi4M0Kd1tQmnwm13NXRosMZTqW9b).

Can someone point me in the right direction in correcting the alignment of the SNAP.
Video snap works fine. See pics.
My monitor resolution is 1024 x 768. It doesnt matter if I switch to any resolution, the alignment still stays the same.
-edit using the newest version SDarcadeMod v2.2 on a PC
Thanks in advance!

Ok, was able to extract the file using 7zip instead of winrar.
Unfortunately same problem. The snaps are not centered and are on the top of the screen.
Anyone have any idea what the problem could be??

I have the latest version of this theme on my Pi3. I'm using the horizontal layout. When scrolling through the games, the vertical games are stretched to horizontal. Is there a way for the theme to show both horizontal and vertical games in their correct aspect ratio?
Title: Re: ArcadeSD theme
Post by: jedione on November 05, 2018, 05:44:23 PM
yaa just add this

local carrier = Carrier( -153, 120, 1025, 250, 3, 3, 30, 0, 0 )
carrier.set_keep_aspect()

does not change the size of the color border though..........just the snap

In the "scripts" subdirectory of the layout.
