  1. In process of making unique fonts and colors for each system, some are turning out better than others, overall I'm really excited about it. The controllers displayed are the ones i use to play the system, not what's accurate to the system itself.
  2. The fact that advanced launcher sucks.... I've been wanting to get away from that for years. There's notification screens at the top that you can't shut off and a very large delay between selecting the .exe in question and the program actually loading...seemingly for no reason whatsoever than code bloat. My experience with this add on is much cleaner by comparison... I wish something had existed for hyperspin many years ago, but i've since dumped that now ....and advanced launcher.
  3. I got tired of waiting for a modification for a splash screen for this so I modded the Bigbox launcher-AHK script, this will display a splash screen by the name of fanart.jpg located in the same folder as the script...script must be located in "..\userdata\addon_data\script.launchbox.launcher\scripts" Feel free to update the main file with this script or make your own version of the same idea. I just wanted a smoother transition from kodi to launchbox. BigBoxLauncher-AHK.ahk
    I've only tested this a few times and it seems to work well, Only thing i would suggest is to add a 'loading launchbox' screen to display before launchbox actually loads...having a plain black screen to stare at before big box loads is kinda lame...otherwise nice job.
  4. Well, here's the absolute best I could get it after a solid day and a half of messing with settings on nothing but this wheel, I'm going to hate it forever because I wanted more curve to it, this is more like a bump, I wanted more of a circular kinda thing, but in case it's helpful to someone else I'm posting the settings on here, if someone can improve upon this in CTC, please let me know. Which produces this....
  5. Circling back on this, I was able to get the CSC files and work from there, only real issue i have now is with the wheel, I absolutely cannot get it to look correct. This is what It looks like when it's first imported, I've tried everything under the sun to make it look proper. After an entire day of tinkering (literally) this was the best i could get it to look. This is what i want it to look like, ideally, (i photoshopped this) can someone tell me what settings I need to have to do this? I've even tried looking at xaml settings in another theme and i just cannot seem to get it to do what i want it to do.
  6. I appriciate the sharing, but I don't think this is going to work in my case, I would need the raw txt files done in CTC to be able to view the settings in CTC.... For anyone reading this Here is where I'm trying to get too... I did this in photoshop Here is where I'm currently at after spending literally 3/4 of a day trying to tinker with settings... I dont' know if this is a me problem, a comprehension problem or if the wheel settings in particular are just so abysmal that I can't get to where I'm trying to achieve... I don't feel like I'm asking a lot...here, but I have no clue what the settings actually do when i change a value and nothing i seem to change gets me closer or farther too it. This is a great tool for a lot of things...but these wheel setting items are just not working for me.
  7. I love this idea, I don't have the bandwidth for this right now but I would love to contribute somehow, most of my mags are from retromag...comics on the other hand... I have yet to find a desirable...palletable, book viewer...there's good ones out there like moon reader pro and comic rack...but each one has their own shortcomings. This flip pdf thing looks interesting....cashy, but interesting.
  8. Sorry for the lame question, but what do i do with these? I've tried putting them in several places within CTC, but I can't get them to show up...what is the proper place that they should go? I know that I could put it in a theme folder after it's already been exported, but then I won't be able to view it in CTC, which is really what I need, I've already been trying to look at the raw xaml code, but can't seem to cross ref title values properly enough to make the wheel look right.
  9. Awesome, thank you! I'll check these out
  10. Posting here that I have uploaded the startups and shutdowns file, please see the first post to download.
  11. What are your wheel edits? I'm having a very hard time getting wheel settings to look good, my wheel looks more like a bump than a proper curve
  12. ok, I'll upload here, thanks for the feedback
  13. It was this site... https://www.launchbox-app.com/themes How come everyone's just kinda quittin their efforts?.... I've seen this on HS (I know why that happened though), but I'm seeing it on here too. I mean maybe There's plenty of movement in this community and I'm just not seeing it...but the emu community as a whole just doesn't seem as bustling anymore.
  14. So I've been using the community theme creator for a few months, and so far, I am liking it for creating things from the ground up, but when it comes to importing another theme to edit, I'm not having much luck. I looked at the video from 'unbroken software' (link below) and the video indicates that it is just a simple import and you can start editing..... I do not have that experience. I'm trying to modify the 'unified' theme for my own customizations. I have freshly downloaded the unified theme from the downloads section and placed it in the "My Theme Projects" folder, I am able to see the theme in community theme creator...but I see nothing otherwise (screenshot). Is there something I can do to get this to display to make my own customizations?
  15. Soooo, this has been sitting in "Pending approval status for a few days now....not sure what to do other than just wait, this is my first upload to the site.
    request themes for ... kst25 Ktmnt3 Ktmnt2 Ktmntbb Ktopgun2
  16. Sort of a goof, but I had an idea for a blockbuster platform theme for games that I don't know what to do with that don't have enough media to support it's own category.
  17. Not at all. I understand and appreciate the effort, Something like this would be useful to me.
  18. Opening a support URL for the Startup screen collection. *Update* Uploading directly to this forum post for testing. Please see the included systems below. The only issue I have personally ran into is with Atari Jaguar CD where the Box art will load on the opposite side of the screen... I believe this has to do with my personal settings in BigPEMU and is not because the startup screen is configured improperly, else, lemme know if anything else comes up. Samples: Installation: Unzip file into the "..\Launchbox\StartupThemes\" Within Launchbox or Bigbox, set the startup theme to Startups and Shutdowns. Should be good to go from there. Enjoy Systems included are: 3DO Interactive Multiplayer Amstrad GX4000 Arcade 2-Player Games Arcade Atari Classics Arcade Capcom Classics Arcade Capcom Play System II Arcade Capcom Play System III Arcade Capcom Play System Arcade Data East Classics Arcade Irem Classics Arcade Konami Classics Arcade Midway Classics Arcade Namco Classics Arcade Nintendo Classics Arcade Sega Classics Arcade SNK Classics Arcade SNK Neo Geo MVS Arcade Taito Classics Arcade Williams Classics Arcade Atari 2600 Atari 5200 Atari 7800 Atari Jaguar CD Atari Jaguar Atari Lynx Bally Astrocade Bandai WonderSwan Color Bandai WonderSwan Batman Collection Casio PV-1000 Castlevania Collection ColecoVision Commodore 64 Commodore Amiga Daphne Default Emerson Arcadia 2001 Entex Adventure Vision Fairchild Channel F GCE Vectrex Konami Handheld Lego Collection Magnavox Odyssey 2 Mario Collection Mattel Intellivision Mega Man Collection Metal Gear Collection Microsoft MSX Microsoft MSX2 Microsoft Xbox MS-DOS NEC PC Engine NEC PC-FX NEC TurboGrafx-16 NEC TurboGrafx-CD Nintendo 64 Nintendo DS Nintendo Entertainment System Nintendo Famicom Disk System Nintendo Famicom Nintendo Game & Watch Nintendo Game Boy Advance Nintendo Game Boy Color Nintendo Game Boy Nintendo GameCube Nintendo Pokemon Mini Nintendo Super Famicom Nintendo Virtual Boy Nintendo Wii Nintendo WiiWare OpenBOR PC Engine SuperGrafx Pinball PopCap Sammy Atomiswave ScummVM Sega 32X Sega CD 32X Sega CD Sega Dreamcast Sega Game Gear Sega Genesis Sega Master System Sega Model 2 Sega Model 3 Sega Naomi 2 Sega Naomi Sega Saturn Sega SC-3000 Sega SG-1000 Silent Hill Collection SNK Neo Geo CD SNK Neo Geo Pocket Color Sony Playstation 2 Sony Playstation Sony PSP Spyro Collection Super Nintendo Entertainment System Tiger Electronics VTech CreatiVision Watara Supervision Windows Startups and Shutdowns.zip
  19. Platform Category possible? I.e. Capcom Classics, irem classics, namco classics, etc. I would use a list like this to parse against zip files and put them in their own artwork folders in mame.
  20. Well...that worked, actually. I still don't understand, but I'll take it.
  21. Then it doesn't make any sense to me why having the -localdata parameter present doesn't work and not having it does work...the opposite should be true. My default command line options were %romfile% -localdata.....so what else could be wrong if having -localdata flag should be present? Do I have a bad profile within the bigpemu emulator that is not set up correctly?
