Main Wheel snaps are fullscreen


Luizw81

Recommended Posts

Critical ZoneV2, Unified, Unified Redux, Unified Refried, and Retrotastic all have this issue where the system select menu snaps are all full screen.  The game specific snaps when I select a system are fine.  It's just the main wheel.  Is there a way to change this?  It's driving me nuts! LOL

Side note:  The CoinOps them shows the snaps on the arcade monitor fine which makes me even more confused.?

Switch the platform view, all themes have more than one view. You can change these in the options, but the easiest way is to set a keyboard or controller button to "switch view" in the binding options and use that to switch view on the fly.

Sorry.  Should have mentioned that I've tried that.  I set my switch views button to F1 but no dice.  Every theme, every view has full screen snaps on the main wheel.  That's the weird part to me...it's only the main wheel (system) snaps.

Well speaking to Critical Zone 2 specifically, that theme only has one platform view with fullscreen video, this one.

I stand corrected on Critical Zone 2.  It displays properly.  I'm not too picky on themes so this one will serve my purpose.  I am curious to why the 3 Unified themes are showing full screen snaps for me.  Oh well.  Thanks a lot neil9000!

The unified themes are designed to have a fullscreen platform video. Unified and Unified Redux specifically the Unified platform videos available from Emumovies, and Unified Refried has its own video pack available here in the forums download section.

This is how Unified should look when using the correct video set, the wheel on the right fades away pretty quickly.

Just to clarify , that entire image in my previous post is the video. Its not just the gameplay section in the middle, the whole screen is the video including the character and system art.

That's what I was missing...that the snap is the background AND the video running in the middle!  I was still thinking like Hyperspin where they are 2 separate files.  Thank's for taking the time to help me out.  You rock!
