  1. @neil9000 & @Retro808 I got some tips and feedback from Jason when I uploaded all the Neon Deluxe Arcade themes to the new theme manager. It seems on shutdown screens there's a 50% wide progress bar. Now since I only have small rom games in my collection (haven't added cd-rom/dvd-rom systems yet) I never see a progress bar on startup and shutdown screens don't work on my setup. Can you test the theme below if it's still visible? I think I deleted the right lines of code but can't view the result, hope the layout is still intact Neon_Deluxe_Arcade_Startup.zip
  2. Version 2.4 Added Make Trax per request 3D Boxes and flyers have been uploaded to the launchbox database as well
  3. Thanks man, that would really be cool! Theres one thing though, some games have like 4 different boxes, maybe a good idea to take the best looking box for the main folder and the alternatives inside a subfolder. I'll convert the make trax box tomorrow, stay tuned
  4. I won't make the live stream tonight but do have a question if you don't mind me asking here. Will the editor make it possible to add a function where it randomizes several images bound to one placeholder, like a randomizing background for example?
  5. Thanks for explaining, I think it might be better to delete it until I find someone who can convert them to mame naming as it hasn't much purpose like this anyway, I can find the edit details button but no delete button though.
  6. Yep and it should be around 4gb as well, took some time to upload the complete file as well so I guess it's a server thing or something?
  7. Lmao I just corrctd it while you posted it at the same time
  8. Thanks for noticing, the total zip should be around 4gb, I didnt have any errors while uploading so I suspect there's something wrong with emumovies @Charco do you know what could be wrong? Edit: Sorry Charco I ment @circo lol
  9. Glad you like and thanks for testing as well bro ? I have to confess I haven't tried pause menu's yet, my whole setup feels so fragile and don't dare to change too much around lol But maybe I can make them without using pause screens myself, I'll try in the future for sure! ps The circle is becoming rounder, new theme to go with:
  10. Neon Deluxe Arcade - Big Box Theme View File Note: This thread will not be pushed to the front in the "whats new" section once updated in the future, if you want notifications for future updates be sure to follow this page by using the follow button in the upper right corner. Neon Deluxe Arcade - Big Box Theme Huge thanks goes out to @Hexxxer for his amazing theme (FutureState) framework and controls (HexControls.dll), without his work I couldn't have made this theme. ----------------------------------------------------- INTRO This theme is a sequel to my previous Futurestate Neon Deluxe theme, it looks a lot like the theme but has some features that the prequel had not; like embedded fonts (no need to install fonts, thanks to @Jason Carr) and much more, you just have to see it for yourself. My main goal with this theme is to create a virtual arcade building kinda like 'New Retro Arcade'. Neon Deluxe Arcade is a series of themes and elements, if you like you can download these to accompany the complete theme: Neon Deluxe Arcade - Launchbox Theme Neon Deluxe Arcade - Startup Theme (Street) Neon Deluxe Arcade - Startup Theme (Inside) Mr. RetroLust's Realistic Retroarch Bezels (Same style > Dimmed lit retro gaming) This theme uses a softer version of Marquee screen FX, if you like there is more choice at Realistic Marquee Monitor FX Transparent background Mame PCB's (circuit boards): Over here You can find transparent background arcade cabinets here at Arcade Cabinets Project 2.0 Video of early version: Video of v2.0 with a new view: ----------------------------------------------------- INSTALLATION Download the theme from Big Box's theme manager or download the zip file here and extract the content to Launchbox/Themes/NeonDeluxeArcade/ You might need to unblock the .DLL's in the plugin folder for them to work properly. To make the placeholder work which shows the Cabinets/Advertisement Flyer - Back/Box Back in the screenshots it first needs some changes in your image priority settings within Launchbox. As the cabinets don't have their own placeholder to be coded in a theme I used the Cart 3D placeholder as I figured most people will only use one cart view or can set Cart 3D in image priorities to Cart Front. You can control a lot to your liking within image priorities, as long as you remember it's Cart 3D for this placeholder. My setup in image priorities within Launchbox options: TIPS 1. This theme uses images and video pretty heavy, it could run slower on older systems. I recommend doing the following to speed up Big Box greatly: Uncheck all Background Images in launchbox/settings/image priorities Set all transitions to "None" in BigBox settings Use the Clean Up media tool in launchbox/tools/Clean Up Media... (this can really speed up lists with thousands of games and duplicate media) Let Launchbox cache your images 2. This theme is probably only fit for use on a 16:9 aspect ratio. 3. If you use a 4K display you probably have to set the Windows dpi settings to 200% in order to keep the layout intact. Hope you like and enjoy! ?

  13. @neil9000 If you like could you check these 2 themes, they should work properly now I hope. Neon_Deluxe_Arcade_Startup_Inside.zip Neon_Deluxe_Arcade_Startup.zip
  14. Version 1.8 Fonts are now properly embedded so you won't have to install them separately thanks to the new coding for themes by @Jason Carr New screenshots reflecting latest version
  15. Damn, I wonder what could be wrong, the binding fields are in order but the backgrounds and mist are not, I'll have a look at it.
  16. @Kondorito, @neil9000, @Retro808 Hey guys, since my system doesn't seem to want to show me any shutdown screen can you guys maybe test if it works correctly on your setups? I hope it just works the way I thought out, there are two startup screen themes, the other is reversed from outside to inside the arcade, the shutdown screens for these are reversed as well from inside to outside, I hope this makes sense lol
  17. Damn I think you're right lol thanks, where's my head at?! I'm not sure anymore which it was exactly but I saved the preset with my own settings it's attached here: LUST666.zip
  18. Done, you can download the update pack 2.3 Version 2.3 Added Root Beer Tapper and Pirate Pete per request 3D Boxes, logo's and fixed up flyers have been uploaded to the launchbox database as well
  19. 2.2 Added: Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) PAL realistic bezel, update with proper cart, I'm looking at you @Suhrvivor
  20. Thanks man Yeah thats the idea, focus to the game, background to accentuate the game. Lol I knew someone was gonna notice and I would say 'yep it's modded' lol but I'll change it soon
  21. 2.1a Added: NeoGeo CD realistic bezel, thanks to @Kondorito for the photo ?
  22. I think I can use this yep, thanks! If you can find this version of the console I would be very happy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neo_Geo_CD#/media/File:Neo-Geo-CD-TopLoader-wController-FL.jpg
