Themes / At-The-Arcade MOD CoinOPSDiamondsDynamic
« on: October 12, 2020, 10:43:13 AM »
Hi everyone,
decided to make some remarks here at the beginning...heard some things...

I was always clear about the origin of the cabinets, it's even in the thread title...never claimed otherwise...

These Arcade-Cabinets here are originally created by the artist -gjsmsmith- of the The CoinOps Project!!!

The coinOPS Project creates very polished Arcade-Frontendsbuilds which are wonderful, please support them if you are interested...
...I personally need more control over everything+want to change things by myself so I choose AM...+I also wanted some of the graphically greatness of coinOPS...sooo....

I think I speak for everyone who enjoys the cabinets that -gjsmsmith- has done an outstanding job creating them! THANK YOU,SIR!

Yeah, everyone cannot deny that his artwork was a little bit "butchered" in the editing process to implement them in our litte projects...sorry for that...

...working on fixing the downgrade to match the originals of -gjsmsmith- a little bit more again, promise...   
...and there is this quote: "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery ..." (conveniently forgot the second half here ;) )


So anyone who uses the cabinets-artwork please credit -gjsmsmith- of The CoinOPS Project as the original creator...

...again, the biggest THANK YOU to gjsmsmith for making an old retrogamerdream come true...
   (please don't be to upset, sorry, never was the intention, only appreciation of your work here)

...hope the AM vs coinOPS situation over artwork and theme"inspirations" keeps lighthearted banter...and not serious a "conflict"
...sometimes you can't weight the tone and seriousness of the words over the internet, for me there was some lighthearted, deserved mocking and banter until now..
...all in good fun...

...in the end we all have the same great hobby, RETROGAMING! Thank You!

Themes / Robospin alternative Cabinet Art to robo&moon
« on: January 24, 2020, 09:44:52 AM »
Hi everyone,

My favorite Theme is the Robospin one which I modified a little bit...I like it a lot....but....
The Control Panels of the 2 Standard Cabinets have not enough buttons or the Joystick of moon patrol only left right ahhhhh...
...this don't fit for most Games...most of you dont care...but then my ocd kicks in...haha...need...full...controll...panell..in...Artwork...;)

Is there an alternative Cabinet Artwork, especially with full control panel - full 6-button layout start+select etc...
Saw a nice Street Fighter Cabinet in a Robospin video but couldn t find the artwork;(
I would be very thankful if anyone with good photoshop skills could generously share their Cabinet Artwork...

I tried myself, but my artistic abilities with photoshop are very limited...please dont laugh;)

Hi,
I am on Windows and using the retroarch cores for MAME 2003+ and Final Nurn Neo and all works fine...
I want all controlls on my joypad so I set Hotkeys in AttractMode - to exit the RetroarchCores - to Select+Start and it works fine...except it won't save the High-Score - old scores get loaded...

(You can set Hotkeys Select+Start in Retroarch and High-Scores will be saved but it blocks the coin input(also Select) in several games so this is not an option)

But...
When I exit with the Escape-Key which is a Retroarch command to exit emulation - the High-Score would be saved...
You can also quick call the retroarch-menu via controller and end the game and use AM-Hotkeys to quick go back to the AM-Menu and the HighScore is saved also...
One advantage of taking an extra step ito get the High-Score saved is...when a friend comes over....who is to good at a game...ooops...forgot something ;)

Maybe emulate pressing the ESC key...
Is there a simple solution to this...

General / FBneo: Filter all clones and keep hacks like 1942 (C64 Music)
« on: November 22, 2019, 01:38:24 PM »
Hi Everyone,

I am stuck and need some help here...
I want to filter all clones..which works (rule                 CloneOf not_equals .*)...
but also want to keep all hacks...or especially the 1942 (C64 Music) game...

a. Is it possible to add a second rule like Manufacturer not contains Hack simultaneous?
b. Can I exempt a specially named game from all filter rules?
c. ???
For one game it is ok to manually edit the romlist but not very ellegant..haha
Thanx in advance...
