[verion]

Thanks!

In regards to missing wheel art:

I created a script called mamesoftwareparser that can parse a mame software list and find missing artwork. It could probably be adapted to use an attractmode list and possibly execute a photoshop action to create a generic wheel art. It would be better than a question mark.

Where does it actually get the missing wheel-art from? The only place I know that you can easily pull it from is TheGamesDB.

It just prints a list of missing files not matching your xml file. It doesn't retrieve anything.

I've been having a issue with the wheel art, 75% of it works but some of it even if present in the folder shows up as a box with a ? in it

Please check out if the same problem is present with different theme that uses wheel art - like ROBOSPIN
This way we'll now if it's a NEVATO theme problem or your setup problem.

Ok, yeah. same issue in Robospin so its not a Nevato issue

So it must be a problem with your images. Most likely the offending images are saved in PNG but in 8-bit format. AFIK for AM you should have 24-bit PNGs.

Just pick one image that is not displaying correctly, open it in a graphic program - like free PAINT.NET (not the MS standard paint) and resave it as PNG. If there is an option - choose 24-bit color. If not, then  24-bit should be default. It should help - if this is the problem.

No dice. I even ran the scrapper and it only has one working image despite downloading a entire folder of art. I even double checked names and that they were 24 bit.
Here is a screenshot of it

I have no clue what is the problem, but it's your system specific issue I'm affraid if this doesn't work for other themes.

[Enverex]

Do your system names or romlist names have spaces in them? I found that AttractMode goes crazy when you do and lots of stuff randomly stops working.

Is there a way to have this theme output the game title in some type of text instead of the "?" box for missing art?

[ZeroQI]

Lcd right option can display romname
Could be file(png 24 bit?) or title (space in name or encoding)
You should use test rom and video/pic name to prove which.
If using snaps parh, use pic;video so video taken first

[verion]

Currently not. If you have wheel art graphics it will display it, but if not - it will display [  ?  ]  box.
In next revision - I'll add an option to use a text list for emulators that simply don't have wheel graphics available for download.

Loving this theme!

Using here with some customization in the background (my own fanart), every game with a different flyer, simulating a real arcade room.
