SNK Neo Geo MVS 2D Cartridges (Front) View File I decided to do a little updating on my setup and there isn't much I could find for cartridge art for the MVS, so I made some of my own. The only one I did not make is the Aero Fighters 2 one (got it from the LB scraper), but used it as the template for the others. These are all quick and dirty and not the best they could be, but they get the job done. Hopefully this helps others flesh out their art collections. I don't have a huge collection of MVS titles, but the download includes 2D cart fronts for the following: Aero Fighters 2 (since I already had it) Aero Fighters 3 Blazing Star Captain Tomaday Crossed Swords Garou: Mark of the Wolves The King of Fighters 2003 Magician Lord Metal Slug 4 Metal Slug 5 Prehistoric Isle 2 Pulstar Real Bout: Fatal Fury Special Shock Troopers Shock Troopers: 2nd Squad Spinmaster Zed Blade Submitter CTRL-ALT-DEFEAT Submitted 05/28/2020 Category Game Cart Images  

Hi All I've started working on a platform theme for the original Xbox (X360 after that) and I'm curious as to how people would feel if the music were a metal cover of the Halo theme song... something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6dlTGp-vHA4 Having a difficult time finding original music that captures "Xbox" and Halo is a given for the platform, but didn't want to use a song directly pulled from one of the games for the platform. Want a remix of something or something original that fits. Thanks for sharing your opinions. If you have any recommendations, please let me know.

Thanks guys! Adjusting the Legacy background image priorities in LB options fixed it.

Not sure if this is from an update or not because I have not made any changes to settings in either Bigbox or Launchbox in a very long time, but I noticed tonight that the box art thumbnail images are being used instead of my fanart backgrounds. Advent Rising sample below. I used Steam Banners as the box art thumbnails for PC games and you can see the background is the same thing instead of the fanart. If anyone might have an idea for what is going on and how to fix, I'd appreciate it. I went through the image settings in Bigbox but do not see anything that corresponds to using box art in place of fan art.

ScummVM Unified Game Themes (16:9) View File I decided to start a 'unified' set of themes for ScummVM. However, my collection only consists of 17 games, so the "complete" collection from me is going to be far from it. That said, I have also attached my After Effects project file in this post. It contains all of the assets used to complete this first video and the project file should be plug and play for any other AE users out there that might want to add to whatever I don't get up here myself. I will try and add other things too, but I have lots of other projects I'm working on, as well, so we will have to see on that. Anyway I hope people enjoy these for their own setups. The AE project contains everything to easily add new game footage, clear logos, background wallpaper for behind the game footage and music (or mute and use the game's audio) without needing to make too many adjustments aside from some minor tweaks here and there. There are many pre-comps in the project primarily to try and keep things tidy and easy to dig through. Should be pretty quick to crank additional videos out with this... I hope. I should be able to get all of these up before the weekend, but the full set of what I have from my collection will be: 1. The 7th Guest 2. Beneath A Steel Sky 3. Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars 4. Broken Sword II: The Smoking Mirror 5. The Dig 6. Full Throttle 7. Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis 8. Maniac Mansion 9. Day of the Tentacle 10. The Secret of Monkey Island 11. Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge 12. The Curse of Monkey Island 13. Return to Zork 14. Sam & Max Hit the Road 15. Simon the Sorcerer 16. Simon the Sorcerer II: The Lion, the Wizard and the Wardrobe 17.

You're welcome! I've got about 4 or 5 other themes going concurrently. One is a revisit to making a platform theme for Mega Drive since I've never been super happy with the one I did some time ago. Once I get through some more of the current PC titles I have an idea for a "unified" video collection for people emulating with ScummVM.

Hey @faeran, are you planning to create a theme for PC titles at any point? I absolutely adore this theme. Such good work.

Playlists Category Theme Video (version 2) View File I was pretty unhappy with how the first one turned out. Made it in a rush just to have something in my setup since it has been blank for a long time. This is a second attempt and I think I prefer this one much better. All of the themes featured were made by me except for the TMNT one (made by @RetroHumanoid) and are downloadable here in the forums.

SEGA Classics Playlist Theme Video View File I did a couple of versions of videos for the SEGA Mega Drive & Genesis Collection release on PC via Steam and thought it might also make a good Playlist video for anyone that wanted/has a SEGA Classics Playlist, so uploading a version for that purpose, as well (clear logo above). Link to the PC Game Themes too for anyone interested in those: Submitter CTRL-ALT-DEFEAT Submitted 05/07/2019 Category Playlist Theme Videos
