[download] NEVATO theme

[verion]

Frankly, I have no idea

I'm planning to update NEVATO, release VELVET theme and working on vertical only theme. But I have so much work - that puts the bread on the table - that I'm struggling to find the time to work on my themes.

---

In the meantime - download and unzip attached file. It's drop-in overlay replacement without scanlines. Just copy it to the theme folder replacing the file with the same name.

Works perfectly (as I'm sure you already knew)!  Much gratitude and respect.

No problem.

I love this theme but I am having a hard time with the cabinet not showing up. I have the wheel, the marquee, and the screenshots but they are just floating in space. Can someone help me out? Thanks!

Very strange. Really have no idea what just happened.
Are you on windows?

If this is a comment based on my post, yes I am on Windows 10.

[verion]

Yes it was

Still have no idea - you can dig through this thread and try to find low-res version that I've posted. I don't have it to post again as it was a one-off.
Try it and and let me know if it changes anything.

I've seen videos of people using different color cabs (red, blue, green etc.).  Some even with 1 or 2 player controls.  Where can I find these?

[verion]

I've answered that question just a few post earlier.

Hmmm... Buy why? Does it look better with 2 players? Or colored controls?

Thanks @Verion for the Nevato theme!
How is it looking for a vertical/landscape toggle? I turned off the aspect ratio so snaps are not stretched anymore but I'm not sure how to go around and fix the skewing dynamically.
I've made other changes learning squirrel as I go to display the title, year, controls, number of players all at once, and also an optional clock so I don't end up working too late on tweaks.
How would you feel about creating a github repo for your themes so others could contribute patches?
Thanks again for the great theme.

You mean - separate cab image for vertical-only games, but displayed on horizontal screen? Or separate layout for vertical screen?

It crossed my mind but I didn't set up a github yet - and haven't time to tackle this. But as general idea - sure.

The former, I have a filter set for vertical games. However it might be weird to switch constantly from the vertical to horizontal cab image when not filtered.
Personally I'd be very happy if the skewing when preserving the snap aspect ratio would work better.
I attached a screenshot maybe there is an easy fix I just don't know about.

I also have a tiny problem with some of the new information I'm displaying. Some is too long so I'm using scrollingtext but it's not showing up as bright as the non scrolling test. In that example the line with the year is all using non scrolling, the title, and control is using scrolling. I understand this isn't an issue with your theme, so if someone more experienced in squirrel could tell me why that is and how to fix it, that would be great.

Thanks.
