Original Microsoft Xbox main menu theme recreation, with custom themed meta overlay.   This took almost a week, finished off the sounds on my lunch break today, enjoy!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xc7AwBXR5pQ

Features:

-OG Menu recreation
-Animated globe (actually uses 5 separate image assets and sequence to make it look animated), globe backing also move up and down depending on menu direction.
-Animated wheel recreation, big thanks to Tankman3737 here, see thanks below.
-Custom meta overlay (button Y on controller)
-OG Menu sounds and meta overlay transition
-Console tray open / close and disc animations
-Console OG light sequence for disc insert/loading
- Los Angeles city view for windows

Special thanks:

-Big thanks to Tankman3737, for working on the animated wheel icons/active slot, I wasn't sure how to animate the text object and the wheel assets, Tank's pulled out some surface wizardry and got it looking great!   Much better than my crappy static version.  He can always make the impossible possible!

-Chadnaut for letting me use his awesome Sequence module and always being available to help with it. 

-David Marti for sharing a way to scroll long game names on the wheel so the don't run over the wheels available space.  I've not implemented this part yet but it'll be in the final version.

-Oomek for his power of work on Attract Mode+ and always being willing to help the community!  Much appreciated.

Careful clicking link above from jakabasej8 he's modified it to include a dubious website.

Amiga CD32 theme added

Features:
-CD tray opens / closes with disc insert animation
-See through windows showing disc animation
-Recreation of CD load button lights
-Top selling games on filter menu
-Alternative desk style (forgot to show on video)
-Related systems on filter menu (forgot to show on video)

Sorry for the lack of updates recently I was in a car accident and ended up with a spinal fracture, so hadn't been able to do much build stuff.   

Also fixed a wee bug I noticed while recording where if a filter was applied the correct top selling game wouldn't load.

Desk theme 1


Tray open animation, disk animates in


Desk theme 2


Filter overlay (button X), includes theme switching options, top selling games and related systems.

SNK Neo Geo theme for Attract Mode +

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMbkKN67nUg


I've went for a Rachid Loft style with this one, he's one of my favourite retro artists.  I think it's turned out very nice.

Xbox 360 Theme add on: https://youtu.be/JNon_UKW6UY?si=vr8nWkFkRA2G320-

This might just be the best theme yet, Microsoft Xbox 360 theme, built in photoshop and brought to life with Attract Mode +

This one's using a new Attract Mode + module by Chadnaut called Sequence, this is an advanced preview copy, but it's looking incredible from my perspective.  Big thank you to Chadnaut, who basically wrote the majority of the animations in this theme using it.  I've now got my head around it, so will be using it for themes going forward.   The big bonus on sequence is stackable animations, so you can do lots of cool sequences very easily with it. 

https://github.com/Chadnaut/Attract-Mode-Modules/tree/master/modules/sequence

Interactable features:

-Toggable menu reflections (massive thanks to Tankman3737, I couldn't get this to work, but he very kindly spent the time getting it working and looking great!)
-Animated ripples on menu floor   
-Disc tray opens and closes
-Disc pops into tray and closes with tray
-Power button follows original Xbox 360 load sequence
-Tray eject button presses and depressed with tray animations
-Custom menu following Xbox 360 NXE theme, but with my own twist on it.
-Custom meta screen, meta disc animation. https://atelierrebul.si/shop/category/disave-za-dom-difuzorji-23
-Toggle full screen on / off https://kuhinje-nemec.com/kuhinjski-pulti/tehnicni-kamen/

Big shout out to Chadnaut and Tankman3737, you guys are awesome!



looks awesome!
