General / G27 Racing wheel - Windows 10 - Attract mode issue
« on: December 19, 2022, 07:32:35 PM »
Hi all -

I'm working on twin cabinet racing build with a few emulators, Windows10, and a G27 racing wheel, pedals and shifter. I'm a long time fan of Attract Mode and have it running on multiple arcade machines in our rec room. I've done windows, Linux and Raspberry Pie builds with AM! Anyhow the issue I have is that when i install AM and open up the first screen, the cursor immediately scrolls all the way to to bottom. I can use the arrow keys to configure mame and set-up the emulator, but when I close out of AM and reopen it, I get the downward cursor of death and this time when it stops at the bottom none of the keys are responsive, (tab nor the up arrow or anything else). Ive done two fresh installs and have had the same problem twice. My best guess is that the G27 wheel or pedals or shifter is sending some kinda signal to AM and causing this issue. Anyways, figured I'd post here before trying another front-end. Thanks for any help or suggestions.

For the life of me I can't find that post on here now. I can email you the layout file if your offering to help me out? I just want the bezel in the game select screen. Once it goes into game mode I just want the game to display in the full screen.

I replaced the bezel with the galaga bezel and renamed it pacman, and it displays the best in AM, but nothing else. :(

I had saw a vertical Pacman build the other day on here, but now I can't find it. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?  It had the bezel on the screen which would be perfect for my build since I'm using a large 4:3 monitor and wont have much bezel..so could show the bezel are while in game select mode. I'm doing a galaga theme, not pacman but I wish I would have saved the link.

Hi all! Just got back into some emulation projects after building my dream cab a few years ago. Arcade1UP cabs got my interest going again. I'm working if a theme exists for Attract Mode that mimmics the Arcade1up theme? 

Thanks!

General / Tank Stick / Ubuntu/ Attract Mode / MAME
« on: June 04, 2015, 09:32:20 AM »
WOW!  Got along going on with my Arcade project now!  Thanks for all the help Fox!  I've got my MAME installation to the point where I'm happy and now trying to get my Tank Stick configured.  It states that out of the box its preconfigured for MAME, but it's not that easy. 

I've had to remap some buttons.  But the big problem I have is I can't get the ESC to work within Attract Mode running Mame.  Anyone run into this or have any insight?

Thanks much!

I downloaded some AVI files and put them in a folder titles Vids, in the mame directory.  Can't see how to point mame at it though.
I'm in config....displays...mame.....but can't seem to figure it out.  the newbieness continues...I'm hopeless!!!

I attempted this and got the remove input changed to R,,,i think that's what you mean?  because the action toggle rotate left doesn't seem to want to change.  Anyway, didn't change anything. 

Also you said launch a game....that doesn't make sense to me as I'm trying to change the game select screen, not anything after game launch.

????
Confused.

Themes / preferred theme for mame?
« on: April 30, 2015, 07:47:07 PM »
I like the verticools theme but I'm going to be using a flatscreen TV for  my Mame project.
Is there a way to horizontal this theme hehe?
Otherwise is there a good option for a newbie that can't code?
