I read earlier on this topic that some people were working on the Video Marquee files.  I currently only have four of them.  Are more available and if so where?  Thanks!

Not sure if this is the right place to ask so sorry if not - checking out the refried theme and just wondering where people are getting video marquees for MAME?

I have emumovies sub but can't see them on there

 

Thanks

 

These marquees can be located in the "Unified Refried - Arcade" addon theme,and there are 8 of them currently...noone else was working on them except me as far as I know...and I am not currently working on them...I will,but,it's just not high on the priority list yet. If other people would like to work on them,they are more than welcome to.

dude, do you have a psd I could work with ? I want to create art for some of my collections, but I want to keep it in style 

I didn't use photoshop for the theme...it was assembled in Gimp actually. I used default borders for every system and built onto them with layers of prepared artwork...just kinda eyeballing placements for each one. Here are the borders I used..

Refried Borders.zip

Not much else to it really

Hello Retrohumanoid,

is there anyway you could make 4:3 ratio version of your theme? I recently modded an arcade 1up sf2 cab and am running big box on it. I currently am running the default theme as it is one of the only 4:3 ratio themes that works. I would love to be able to use this theme in my arcade 1up cab.

It's not the 5:4 you are looking for but there is an easy way to make it 4:3.  Edit the Themesettings.xml for main Refried theme.  Each add on has the same file you can copy and paste your edited one into.  the last 2 lines change the resolution.

I have already edited mine to the 4:3, all you need to do is change the force 16:9 to false and force 4:3 to true.  Not sure if you could change it to "Force 5x4".

 

<Force16X9AspectRatio>false</Force16X9AspectRatio>
    <Force4X3AspectRatio>true</Force4X3AspectRatio>

Been a while since I posted...so I figured I would throw an update out there of what I have been up to.

Here is the status of the Refried Startup screens so far...

Logos are finished for 201 systems...

Examples:

Arcade.thumb.PNG.a7cb1e22bb93d56ae381f91c5ccb691f.PNG1809883942_SegaDreamcast.thumb.png.f84e8af4cbb907bfa13988f863f5fb38.png1390431306_SuperNintendoEntertainmentSystem.thumb.png.f6e0d22a057853e20ed8a8463b53bb0f.pngNow Loading text is finished for 160 systems (alot of them require/required custom work) ....

Examples:

Once the startup screens are finished and released,I will be working on a Refried Marquee set.

Also with the recent changes to Launchbox theme structure,Refried does not appear to be broken in its current state,but,an update will be released soon with a restructured format that will make applying the theme much easier and user friendly,as well as some minor fixes/changes/tweaks. If anyone notices anything effected by the current changes,that seems to require immediate attention,feel free to notify me ASAP. Thanks!
