I like the AMGPS (Attract Mode Grid Pro System) v1.13 a lot. See link: http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?topic=1824.0

I like that theme too but unfortunately all of the download links are deleted

Is there a site where I can download some of those videos to do tests?

Thanks, this topic made me realize there were a couple of bugs in the cropping and scaling of videos when box art are enabled. Plus my workaround for the 9:16 snaps was not complete. I think I fixed everything now, but it's a lot of changes, it will be released with the new version. Which is due these days.

In your setup, you are using the vertical snapshot as "boxart", right?
yes.


arcade,0,0,ARC,CRT,NONE,0,0,ARCADE,Various,null,Arcade,75,rom,null,null and
arcade,0,0,ARC,CRT,NONE,9,16,ARCADE,Various,null,Arcade,75,rom,null,null
Don't work.

Also, try this change and tell me if it works: look for this line

Code: [Select]

tilez[i].AR.vids = getAR(tilez[i].offset,tilez[i].vidsz,0,false)
and change to

Code: [Select]

tilez[i].AR.vids = 9.0/16.0

It didn't work again

Ok, I'll need a deeper debug then, can you share the .cfg file of the emulator you are using for vertical arcade?

General / Attract 2.6.2 (USE_DRM=1) on Arch Linux

« Last post by shbon on October 03, 2022, 06:10:15 AM »

I would like to use Attract Mode as a FE for a RetroArch installation I have running well in KMS Mode (https://docs.libretro.com/guides/kms-mode/) on Arch Linux.

I've compiled Attract 2.6.2 with USE_DRM=1 and SFML-pi with the SFML_DRM=1 on a Arch Linux installation that doesn't have any X11 components installed.

I can run attract in the command line (tty) and configure settings through the UI fine, but when I launch any RA game I get the error "Failed to set mode: Permission Denied" and then attract aborts with a core dump. (I think that error is being thrown by SFML-pi, specifically the call to drmModeSetCrtc).

Has anybody got AM working properly on a Linux x86_64 (such as Arch Linux) without X11? I hoping there's a simple config change I can make to fix this...
