Hey,
I’ve been using the Dynamic Marquee view shared by Flanx and I really love it.
I’m running it with the Unified Redux theme, and I had a few issues where it didn’t always display correctly depending on where I was (Arcade, Naomi 2, Windows Games, playlists, etc.).
So I made a few small adjustments to the XAML to make it behave more consistently.
Basically:
better fallback between game / platform / playlist
works now with arcade systems (MAME / FBNeo), Naomi, Model 2/3, etc.
also works properly when entering platforms or playlists
fixed the background path so it works with custom theme folders
Nothing crazy, just making it more reliable in everyday use.
Now it works fine:
when selecting a game
when entering a platform
and with playlists
Otherwise, I’m starting to build my own marquee visuals to go with this.
flanx do you have more platform images ? For exemple Sammy Atomiswave ? Wii U ?
A PSD could be usefull and I'll created them and share
Thx for your job
