Adultery

This is not possible at this time, sorry.

For #1: you need to use D3D for native integration, sorry. For #2: Custom menus may be what you're looking for here.

I'm at work now, but when I get home I can make these changes and upload.

My system can handle them just fine, but mine's more modern so I'll have to ask the community how their experiences rate with mone as far as performance goes. GameEx loops the videos on its own so I don't need to do anything on that front, and they look pretty dope on my machine. If you decide you want to add some elements like this to your projects, as always I'm here for ya Drac. I like to help out where I can. I am going to complete this set and then make another set with a cabinet shot where the screen shows the video and the marquee shows the list item (maws, horizontal, vertical, etc) to give the community some variety. Soon as I polish up these I'll get started on those, then I want to get started on a theme that uses videos for background pages employing some of these techniques. I suppose these will be more for HTPCs since cabs are typically lower end computers. Either way I think people will like them. Thanks for the props Drac, and yes the software can be a bear to buy. Fortunately for me I can get top tier software for low prices through my university bookstore and pay for it with my student loan money.

Hey everyone... I had an idea a while back, and I decided today to take it to the next step, especially since my theme is completed. The question is this: If I complete this set of MAME logos, would you use them on your rig? I'm gonna crunch them down a bit I think (currently they're in NTSC aspect, or 720x480 for you folks outside of the US) and play with the videos I use in the background, maybe even change up the foreground, but overall I'm pretty happy with the way these look. What do YOU think? PS: Thanks to Circo @ EmuMovies, there's no shortage of Hi-Quality AVIs to choose from. My plan is to make one for each of GameEx's native categories. After I finish the style, I can whip these out pretty quick, and then I plan to run them through Tom's new conversion software. Then a release shall be forthcoming. I'm planning on applying some of these techniques to a new theme, so these will be more about practice than anything else. That doesn't mean I won't finish the set mind you, just that these aren't a huge undertaking for me and will be done fairly quickly. Any and all criticism is welcome (although I may scoff at some of your suggestions! Hahaha! J/K!)

I've had similar problems with emulators and batch files usually take care of the issues.

Try this: ::Launch your AHK Script :START @echo off ::Make sure it's in the right drive first! C: ::Change the directory cd "C:\AutoHotKey\" ::Launch the executable start "" snintendo.exe :END ::EoFHere's the BAT file to add in if you don't know how to make one: Let us know if this method works for you in LaunchBefore.

You could try and run the exe from a bat file and see if it works.

Looks awesome Drac!

Thanks for the update Tom.

$5? I wish! In Wisco they're more like $8.

Sorry man, you heard the boss. If you would like someone to help you through the process, start a new thread. Before you do that though, please take a look at the forum rules. Topic closed.

Okie dokie! I'll work on that right now. .:EDIT:. PM sent!

Still want me to pitch in the samples Drac ol' buddy?

*insert shameless plug here* Add some thump to your arcade project! Right click a link and 'save as' if you like that sort of thing. Bootlegs n Phillies 9 - Untouchable Dirty South mixes and original remixes. Married II Tha Game - The Official Street Lethal Mixtape HUGE 2 hour mix - 1st half is rappy, 2nd half is some delicious hip hop. Many of these tracks are remixed and never heard before. WARNING: These are pretty adult orientated. Listen without your kids around! I was just having a listen to some of my old mixes and wanted to share. There's a ton more (and some house, drum n bass, and techno mixes too) at my audio page. Could be the change of pace you were looking for... And maybe not! *LOL* If you're into "white trash insult rap", I produced some beats for some friends of mine who go by the name "Your Mother's Lovers". They call it "Goat Ranch Rap", and it's 100% insulting. You have been warned!

Ok, let's knock out this startup video first. Please go to the following folder: C:/GameEx/Theme/Default - Media Center Open the THEME.INI in Notepad and paste in the following line in the first set of settings: SkipIntro=True This is to test, so if it works for you I'll give you a more permanent solution. Please let me know.

UPDATE: Added the YouTube video I promised.

I can help with the latter. What theme are you using?

That's pretty boss actually. My board supports PCIe as well as AGP so maybe I should upgrade. I <3 NewEgg!

I remember reading that the MAME devs finally broke the encryption on ZN-1 and ZN-2 games a little while back, and afaik that's the last thing that was holding them back. Hopefully mesk saw this too and can provide a link as I'm on the mobile atm.

No, picking up a crack pipe would have been waaaay worse! My cousin Justin died of a heroin relapse, and he quit smoking cigs two weeks before that. Just goes to show that you're damned either way.

On the plus side... It was on the Today Show so it's not like anyone saw it! Wah wah wahhhhhh! And hey, if that asshole had an arcade machine, he'd probably be right there with us.

According to this: ZincOptions=--renderer=.\renderer.znc You're not even calling the controller plugin via command line.

Mmm that's in really good shape too! It would be a shame to molest it though if it still works, no? MAME devs would just cry!
