Arcadeflow theme v 17.4 [Release] Updated 05 September 2024

That looks great! Indeed, the tiles should overflow to the sides. That implementation seems perfect.

As for configuration, my preference would be x and y percentages, rather than hard resolution values. I use another, high-resolution screen to set everything up before starting AM on the CRT TV and with percentages it would work on both displays with the same settings. Plus it's... simpler with percentages, I guess?

Thanks for such quick development and for the great stuff you make!

Got it, so here is a modified AF 10.5 with the overscan options. You can find them under "Performance and FX". Hopefully I didn't break anything else in the process

I'm probably being dumb, but I tried several values - 90, 80, 50, 5 - and none seemed to change anything.

My mistake, version check was probably resetting the option... try with this one.

Fantastic, it is working great! I'll let you know if I find any breakage elsewhere.

While I have your attention, I was wondering about the fact that videos in attract mode are really zoomed in, I can only see the center of the video. I have "fixed" it locally by changing

Code: [Select]

scanrows = 180 to

Code: [Select]

scanrows = 280 on line 10541, but I was just wondering if I'm missing something elsewhere.

The intended behavior is to "sample" 180 scanlines from a game and use that portion to create the attract "screensaver". This means that it can be zoomed in depending on the resolution of the original game. I've been thinking of another solution but not sure if I'm going to change it, BTW the edit you did is correct if you want to see more of the game

I found an issue with the new overflow feature. When the vertical overflow is lower than 100 (tested at 90), and you move the cursor down to the letters, the glow is shown ABOVE the bar instead of being at the same vertical position as the letters.

Thank you for spotting it, fixed but will be released with 10.6, coming soon.

Arcadeflow 10.6 is out!

This version adds overscan support, new Nintendo arcade systems and some bug fixes that you were so great at spotting.

Thank you all and enjoy the new release

I think you misunderstood me. What I am looking for, is being able to just display wheel images, as shown in image I took in the standard Grid layout. So wheel image centered in the thumbnail area, with a nice dropshadow, and retaining the option to morph into a snap video.

Not sure if you are still using AF and interested to this, but I'm thinking of implementing a "wheel only" mode in AF so it will look almost as you mentioned in this post...

For people using Windows 7 64 bit (my setup) , if you want auto update feature you should download https://curl.se/windows/ and put the files of 64 bit version under system32 directory (i put under syswow64 and was not working)

In this way AM will be able to execute command to update itself (for automatic update you should flag on this feature under AM's options)

Does this theme work on the rasberry pi 3?

AFAIK, but I don't have a Pi to test, no it doesn't work. I think it might work on the Pi4 but probably not at full speed.

Arcadeflow 10.7 is out!

Just a couple new cosmetic options in this revision, hope you enjoy it
