Arcadeflow theme v 17.4 [Release] Updated 05 September 2024

[zpaolo11x]

I don't know if it's been suggested before... many games have the sound volume too high and others too low, so I think a sound volume control panel would be very practical. Something like there is in "maximus arcade" ; press a button and sound sliders appear.

You mean the volume for games videos or for actual games that are played? In the first case there's no way that I know of to change the video volume in squirrel (I'd love to do it), for played games it depends on the system and on the emulator... I'll think about it

[motaromk9]

I meant the main sound volume of the OS (windows for example), in this case thinking about solving the volume problem of the volume variation of the games, even in MAME for example there are games with different volumes, (Donkey Kong and Hyper Street Fighter 2 for example). I think if we could have quick access to this volume control before getting into the game it would solve this problem.

Arcadeflow 12.1 is out, just in time for Christmas!

This version will fix some issues and add new "all games collections" for last played and favourite games.

Enjoy!

Hi zpaolo11x,
I downloaded the new version, but the screen is frozen on startup with AF logo.

attract-console shows this

Hi zpaolo11x,
I downloaded the new version, but the screen is frozen on startup with AF logo.

I'm sorry but it seems there's a lot of bugs in 12.1, I'm trying to debug it, in the meantime you can try this substitute layout.nut and see if it's better. Also try disabling all games collections...

[motaromk9]

It seems to me that the option to delete roms in windows 10 hasn't been fixed yet. And I also don't understand how to appear in the display list the ''collections'' just like you posted in this last photo.
Thank you very much for the continued support of this fantastic theme.

There are some severe bugs in 12.1 that I'm going to fix soon, in the meantime you can try with the attached fix, just unpack the files in the AF folder, it should at least fix the missing "Collections" artwork...

Hi zpaolo11x,
I downloaded the new version, but the screen is frozen on startup with AF logo.

If you are stuck with a grey screen and AF logo, try this: go to the romlist folder and delete all .db1 files, unpack this fix attached to this message in the AF layout folder and run AF again. Let me know if it gets better...

Same error, but I have no db1 file on my disk.

Can you share the output from attractplus-console.exe?

Can you share the Amiga.cfg from the emulators folder and the Amiga.txt from the romlists folder?

Can you share the Amiga.cfg from the emulators folder and the Amiga.txt from the romlists folder?

I have attached the required files.

I have read some previous posts and noticed that a special version of AM is required.
I'm using classic 2.6.1 and previous ArcadeFlow version was 10.5

Ok, first thing is that your Amiga romlist has some issue, I see every line there's a blank line with just a ";", and the number of entries in each list item is too low, probably because you are using AM 2.6.1 "classic", not attractplus or the daily builds. I'll see if I can add an error check in the code for this scenario, otherwise the only way is to update your AM to the latest daily or to attract plus and regenerate all romlists.

If you want to try with AM+, you can get it here: https://github.com/oomek/attractplus/actions

You can try this layout fix, should work with your romlists
