Love the themes!

So far I dove in and moved the PS1 console over to the right about 500 pixel I guess, Bandi to behind the T.V. and over to the right a bit & I have edited out the frame rate counter and the Steam message out of the video in the gtc-common. Same encoders although no quality spared on the output. Also changed the background on the PS1, not really sure what the background that's there is from (Crash or Lion King are my guesses) Doesn't look familiar to me aside from that. Couldn't find a really clean old Mech Warrior 2 background so I'm doing a modern artistic one with old Mechs.

I have uploaded the gtc-common bkg video here if you need it for the collection.

To make the edit yourself instead, all I did was take a picture of the bottom corner in my video player while full-screen, open that picture in gimp, paint over the FPS counter on frame one then put that picture in the bottom corner of the screen in Avidemux and then saved the edit with identical encoders.

Next I want to move the arcade machine down & possibly make marquee shorter as well so that I can see the fan & configure the marquees to line up with the new setting. The ceiling fan is a neat touch but is covered up by the cab 99% of the time, I think it would be cool to see it and I don't need to see the controls since my cabs physical controls are there.

Plan on adding 4-5 more and then a system selector most likely iomenu if it's not too difficult to get it up and running. Way smoother than my HyperSpin install & way easier & love that you can adjust it inside of attract. Helps me out doing a lot of the file work on my main computer, copying it over and then just selecting stuff with the stick controls once it's on there. Would be even easier if I had space on my main PCs C drive for a mirror setup, but I don't. $20 230g ssd Arcade and $50 120g 7 years ago ssd in my main PC ;D.

There is probably a user error - what does the console AND last_run.log file shows?

Thx. Yes and I don't know.
I just reinstalled everything and it's work.
This theme is really nice. Great work.

It is possible to display the information of the games (description, number of player, year...)?

Thx a lot!!

The available options are featured in the layout options menu.
If you want anything else you can add the code to the layout nut file.

Here is a little GTC goodness I brought back from the wild….it’s not all of them, but it’s a good chunk:

Download: http://gofile.me/6OElE/yMvpGrYuz
* - I added a few things to these that they didn’t have.  A music player, clock (date and time), and other things.  I tested these in AM+ 2.6.2 and AM+ 3.0 and they work well in both.

This one I made and included in the pack:

Hi Friends

The download link is no longer available.  :-\

And the version published by PaCiFiKbAllA is not complete, it does not include the Hyperspin theme.
