SDArcade V3.00

[FrizzleFried]

SDArcade is the PERFECT Attract-Mode front end theme for lower resolution arcade monitor setups.  Originally made by JediOne for the PC version of Attract-Mode in the vein of the ArcadeSD arcade multigame system,  Dee2er converted it for use with the Pi.  It's been through a number of changes since then.  Version 3 brings to the table a number of new features including backgrounds, static frames and more...

FEATURES:
• select vertical or horizontal mode
• 8 backgrounds or the original black
• 8 static frames or the original animated color changing frame
• 3 sizes of "preview" frame to choose from
• 5 header animation types
• select wheel graphics or marquee graphics for the header
• more...

Sorry to hear of your hell, man... just glad it turned out for the "better" rather than the worse... and I only say better with quotes because the entire ordeal was HELL I am sure...

I can't even imagine.  The most important thing though is that you and your family are OK.

...and because,  for whatever reason,  I can not just STOP working on adding more and more crap to this layout...

I am now considering working on a "skin" system for a "front" graphical layer.  The idea is to use it to make "port holes" to look out "in to space".... (see example below).

I'm even considering adding the option of turning off the stars... and then I could add a bunch of other type of skins (think Mario Bros Pipe to Pipe kind of skin,  etc).... but then I figured that would be WAY too much for a single layout.  Perhaps I'll put together a separate ..."non-starfield" layout and develop that one separate from this one which would keep the "space" theme...

>sigh<

...it's sort of a sickness it seems.

Sorry to hear that @jedione. Glad your safe.

UPDATE: SDArcade v3.0 worked great for the ARpiCADE ... but was broke for the PC (and probably the Mac) it turns out.  I have fixed this issue.  The fixed file is marked with an "f" at the end of the filename.  You can download it here:
