Arcade Row - WIP

[markc74]

Hi all - I posted a vid of this on YouTube a while ago. It's not perfect and there's definitely room for some optimisation but it does roughly what I need to do with it. If I get some time I'll come back to it to smooth things out but if anyone else wants to pick it up then I'm more than happy. 

Requires artwork setup properly - marquee/video/snap folders setup.

Looks good, has the feel of 3Darcade.

Its a real shame 3d arcade died as it was such a great concept. I would love a frontend where u could walk around real cabs and play them but without an easy way to download packs it would never work. I'm sure in a few years someone will write one (hopes!)

You needed the control panels also.

For what you are thinking would take something like a fps engine.

Any chance that you have a higher resolution version of cab.png?  My resolution is 1360x768, I think I can adjust properly for that and would share of course.   If not, no offense taken, but it is good work!

I've got a couple of themes that I've been working on, once I'm more comfortable with how they're working / looking I'll post them!

Someone has remade that in the unreal engine. You can get it athttp://digitalcybercherries.com/ It was made for the occulus. Its pretty cool to play around with,even though you are pretty limited with how many games it has.

Just curious if there is a way to use a different font in this layout? thanks

Modify the layout.nut file to include "fe.layout.font="<desired_font>". Make sure that your AM font path is correct (Configure-->General-->Font Path=<your_font_path>).

Excellent. Thank You

Not sure if this will help or not, I am running Attract Mode on Manjaro Linux. I had the same issue as you where the video snaps were showing on all the cabinets except the middle one.
What worked for me was I used a text editor and edited the file layout.nut in the Arcade Row theme folder. There is a line around line 35 or so that read in my case

local snap0 = fe.add_artwork( "video", 270, 146, 100, 80 );

I changed "video" to "snap" in that line and saved it and now the main cabinet is showing the video snaps.

Not sure why the marquee's aren't showing up.
