Themes / Re: Arcadeflow theme v 4.5 [Release] Updated 24 May 2019

FWIW I use RetroArch as a multi-emulator solution. Personally I'm not interested in arcade emulation, but RetroArch has a MAME core too. I haven't messed with MAME in a long time but from memory it only handled older systems, whereas RA covers PSP, Wii and 3DS among others (I still use standalone emulators for PS2/3 and WiiU though). As far as video snaps go I mostly use ScreenScraper.

in 4.5 I disabled videos overlay when in box art mode

Ah, fair enough. In that case 4.5 is working perfect for me, and even without video snaps I think it's gonna be my main layout.

PS: Is there a way to use overview .txt files outside of Arcade collection since consoles or computers don't have an history file? Maybe there's an new option that I've missed. Or maybe for future updates of course :)

I'd also appreciate any info about this! :)

Hmm, I must be doing something wrong on my end. After adding "Console" to the system identifier and enabling boxart mode, I do see the proper aspect ratio applied to all the boxarts, and it looks great. I'm no longer seeing video snaps for the currently selected game however. Right now I'm using flyer, snap and wheel for the art types, but I messed around with a few different combinations and couldn't make a change. Any ideas?

Thanks so much for your fantastic work so far, too!!

Gave the new layout a shot, was a little unsure if the hack was applied to the horizontal-vertical layout or the square one,  but after testing both things are definitely improved!

Without wanting to spam the thread with too many pics, it looks like the h-v layout is working best:




It does look like a fair bit of the NES boxarts are being cropped, likely due to their portrait orientation vs the SNES's landscape boxart?

Wow, thanks for the fast reply! I do indeed have game snaps too, but these only work partially too: 4:3 stuff looks fine but wider ratios like GBA/PSP don't look right in either square *or* horizontal-vertical since they're landscape rather than portrait. I'm not sure how motivated you are to make AF more compatible for console emulation, but it'd be so cool if you could add some functionality to work with more varied artwork/aspect ratios :)

Heya, great theme! I have some issues that are probably more related to not being too familiar with Attract Mode, but wanted to check here:

  • When using the horizontal-vertical aspect ratio, video snaps go past the thumbnail image
  • All games give an "Unable to locate: Title" error, despite being able to successfully generate idx files in D:\Emulation\attract-daily\history.idx
  • I can't seem to find any info on how to get the system/publisher icons to work
