Cosmo's Main Menu

Well, after some time fiddling with the code and trying to optimize it, here is my main menu theme. Thanks to David Marti for the unified code.

It includes animations for the background, boxarts, cartarts, you can also mute the videos... and many more!

(the animations are faster on the raspberry pi)

Main Menu Layout:


Systems Layout:


Snes-N64 theme:


Arcade Layout:


Nintendo DS Layout:



How to install:
1. Download the .rar file below, and extract in your computer. Copy 'layouts' and 'menu-art' to:
-The folder you have installed Attract Mode (if you're using PC version)
-home/pi/.attract/    on your Raspberry Pi (use WinSCP)

2. in attract mode go to the menu/displays/ and use this layouts:
cosmo-mainmenu: to use with the displays main menu
cosmo-systems: To use with systems displays
cosmo-arcade: layout for arcade systems. Includes support for flyers and marquees.
cosmo-snes-n64: same as cosmo-systems but better support for bigger boxarts
cosmo-favorites: support for compilation displays. Info about emulator in the text box and it can show console art based on it.
cosmo-nds: support for Nintendo DS dual screen.

-If some images don't appear check that your display name in attract mode and the name of the images are the same (even capital letters on the raspberry)
-If you aren't going to use some systems you can delete their files in the menu-art folder or in "cosmo-systems" folder. Search and delete every image you aren't going to need to save some precious space.

Cosmo's Theme v.1.1: https://mega.nz/#!c95zSDiC!LsXoPnMCwA9XMMO5jJ2aj7R1nFfnNuZQRXR0bRHXxuk (includes the layouts + .psd templates to do the backgrounds and pointers)

FAQ:

Are you going to support more systems?
Probably a few more supported by retropie as:
-Dragon 32/64
-Oric
-Sam Coupe
-TI-99
-TRS-80
-Z-Machine (Infocom games)


No collections are supported? Why?
Collections are a bit personal. I don't use them. Many others probably yes. And you could make hundreds of them and not finish... so no, i'm not going to make them. But i have upload a .psd file so you can make your own backgrounds and images using photoshop. Feel free to share them and if they are good enough i will include them in the theme (crediting you ofc)

It's a bit slow on my raspberry pi!
If you are having slowdowns on the main menu or you feel its a bit slow you can disable the animations or boxart and cartart. With everything off it should work much more faster. 

Some systems don't have images!
If some images don't appear check that your display name in attract mode and the name of the images are the same (even capital letters on the raspberry). Rename them if not.
Hi cosmo
This complete set is amazing
The only thing is i cant get nes background and pointer to work ?
Ive changed names on other systems to make them work and there fine
Any chance you could do a nes one on ita own so i can put it on that way
Many thanks danny

Hi everyone the robospin themes are amazing i just cant see my box artwork on the theme?
I have my box artwork in the right folder and the artwork works on the unified theme
Can someone help me please
Thanks in advance danny

Hi, from what you've explained and how it works on unified my first guess is that you've simply not selected the option in the displays menu. I think a few of the themes default the option to "No".
hi i have found out how to do that but there is no option for cart art?

You'd have to add it to the .nut file
I have no idea how to add the cart art to the nut gile amy toturials out there
