Can't wait! Cosmo anyway I can fix stretched box art in Sega CD layout?

Working on the main menu, Sega consoles are done... So far, so good.

Works fine on the pc, it's a bit sluggish on the Raspberry, the full hd backgrounds are too much for my poor pi3...

The best place is to get it from David Marti. He has a link on his youtube channel.

Perfect!! Thanks!!

I copied this method from another site and it worked for me.

==============
RETROPIE ATTRACT MODE UPDATE

Well first I would update retroarch files. You can do this from the RetroPie-Setup menu. After that is complete, reboot, then either drop to the command line (F4), or, if you do not have a keyboard connected, quit emulationstation from the menu, then ssh into the pi from a pc or laptop. I use putty as I'm on windows, but any ssh capable app will do.

At the command do the following in order, pressing ENTER after each line and waiting until the prompt appears again before entering the next line.(Note: commands are case sensitive in Linux)

    cd ~
    rm -r -f develop
    mkdir develop
    cd develop
    git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/mickelson/attract attract
    cd attract
    make USE_GLES=1 -j4
    sudo make install
    cd ~
    rm -r -f develop
    sudo shutdown -r now

The last line will reboot your system and boot back into emulationstation, or a prompt, depending on your previous image. Either way, you have to get back to the prompt and type: attract

This will get you into your now updated AM.

Hope this helps.

Unfortunately i don't have facebook. But everyone is free to use my works as they please.

Well, i've been working a bit on the main menu looks...

Not sure what would look better....




The first one uses simple png logos in a black background (i could make it a bit transparent), the other one uses the motion blue logos. Not sure about the pointer. Any suggestions?

upps.. Another thing. Would you prefer that blue and black background or diferent backgrounds per console?

I personally like different backgrounds and the motion blue wheels. Thanks for you hard work!

Thanks so much BadFurDay! Now it works great! can you please share cut and paste the edits to the nut file to get it to display correctly? and also the flyer add on?

I didn't do any changes to the nut to get the cabinet to display correctly, I just downscaled the images as they were over the normal HD resolution so would only work on a PC not through a HD TV. For the flyer I simply copied the Brick background:

{
local b_art = fe.add_image("bg1.png", 0, 0, flw, flh );
b_art.alpha=255;
}

And pasted it at the start of the flyer background option, quite basic stuff really just putting the two into one.


I get my MAME marquees and flyers from here:

Thanks! I understand now

Cosmo, your displays/layouts are top notch!!!!! And integrate very easily in the motion blue image. If you could make a Dreamcast one with the orange swirl I would greatly appreciate it.  I'm eagerly checking everyday for new stuff. Thanks so much!!
