General / (Solved) Exit from openBOR?

« on: March 07, 2021, 09:57:58 AM »

This code works, but with a small flaw when you launch a game immediately after it returns to attract mode, but with the game still open, then when you click the exit button the game closes, but while the game is running attract mode continues work below, I don't know if I have explained myself well, does it do it to you too?
 wait_for_ESC.exe

Code: [Select]

#include <Misc.au3>

While 1
If _IsPressed ("1B") Then
ProcessClose("OpenBOR.exe")
;MsgBox(0, '', "Button pushed")
Exit
EndIf
WEnd
> OpenBOR

executable           cmd
args                 /c cd C:\attract\EMU\OpenBOR\[name] & start OpenBOR.exe & start C:\attract\EMU\OpenBOR\wait_for_ESC.exe
rompath              C:\attract\EMU\OpenBOR
romext               <DIR>
system               Arcade
info_source          thegamesdb.net
nb_mode_wait         3
exit_hotkey          Escape

NOTE: ESC-Key of AM doesn't work. So you need an external program like an autoit-script. Create wait_for_ESC.au3 and compile this sourcecode to .exe:

« on: February 12, 2021, 08:24:43 AM »

I liked this theme immediately, I saw it in action on batocera linux and I immediately thought of replicating it for AM, guys I tell you right away that I am not an expert in this language, but I'm starting to understand it and learn it, however, copying a bit the code from various themes I made this my first theme, if any language guru finds errors please tell me it is me with humility I will listen to it. in principle there should not be because everything works as I wanted, here is the theme in action
