[THEME] MegaMAME Theme

[Adultery]

Thanks Circo! I made the theme to match the controller images.

Funny thing is its usually the other way around!

[Adultery]

UPDATE: Added YouTube video.

[celly]

Adultery do you have a blank controller images that I could have? Yours look great but some of my configs are waaaay different from the ones you shared. Thanks dude!

[Adultery]

There should be a PSD in the theme folder.

[celly]

Doh! Insert foot in mouth, now.

How can I disable the splash screen for this skin, when GameEx starts ?

[Kustom Kid]

There's a selection to disable opening animation (can't remember the exact verbiage) in the setup.

[Bigby]

This wasn't working:

Display Settings - Start Page Zoom animation - yes/no

However I edited the theme.ini to read "skipintro=True" (was false)

So, all working now

[Draco1962]

The intro and Start Page Zoom animation are two different settings.

[AlphaUMi]

I would just to add that, in general, entries in Theme.ini, where identical, always take precedence over GameEx.ini. At least as far as I have experieced until now.

[Draco1962]

Alpha - you are correct. If the same settings exist within the gameex.ini and the theme.ini, then the theme.ini settings will take precedence.

Is it possible to disable the news feed that scrolls at the bottom of the main page in this theme?

[Draco1962]

Yes - Load the theme in Theme Editor, click on Options and look for the News Feed option and deselect, click OK and save to apply the changes.

Hi Draco. Thx for the info! I couldn't find the news feed "option" that u were talking about. However, I was able to clear out the URL that was providing the news for the start page by going to "Edit" --> "Scroller". So that did offer a similar solution. And I was even able to put in my own custom text for that field which was kinda cool. :-)

[Draco1962]

My apologies as I miss-posted about the location. It is under Edit >Scroller in Theme Editor. That's what I get for posting during breaks while at work. So you did find it and were able to resolve your issue - very cool!

[gamepimp]

No worries at all. U pointed me in the right direction w/ the Theme Editor. I was thinking it could be shut down from the Setup Wizard. Still trying 2 familiarize myself w/ which program controls what. Lol!

[Adultery]

So I see we got a new progress bar, eh?

I updated the update screen to look a bit nicer, and to make the progress bar seem as if it were part of the theme.

Now that the loading screen has been fixed, I'm updating that next.

That looks friggin' sweet Adultery! Exemplary work as always. Looking forward to seeing that loading screen.

[Adultery]

Here's some updates...

A new and improved GameEx loading screen:

I fixed a minor flaw in the GameEx update screen:

And here's an animated GIF for the update screen to replace the Tapper graphic:

Just add/overwrite the files in your MegaMAME MEDIA folder. I'm working on adding 4DO today so I may have a new emulator screen for it afterwards.

[nullPointer]

I am unabashed to say this is one of my all time favorite GameEx themes. The new status screens look fantastic Adultery! Every time I look at that startup screen the SMB ‘Cave theme’ starts playing in my head (which for my money is some of the greatest of all SMB music).

Also looking forward to having a look at the new 4DO screen!

Great job again man!

[Adultery]

Thanks! It's my last day of vacation so I'm trying to finish up all my projects.

[KRC]

Im ashamed to say I overlooked this theme but after reading through the topic and looking at the screens im very impressed, i think one of the reasons I never took the time to look was because there wasnt a User Projects section and this theme got moved down and out of sight. Now its in plain sight

But now the User Projects Section is available it makes things easier and people tend to find things easier aswell.

Great Work

[Adultery]

Thanks KRC!

It was built around my cab design, I'm glad you like it.

Thanks! It's my last day of vacation so I'm trying to finish up all my projects.

Some vacation! Thanks for all your hard work.

[Adultery]

Well I was *supposed* to go to Hawaii, but hey. We had some stuff come up last minute (fortunately I was able to recoup most of the expenses). I guess I saved a chunk and went to Noah's Ark and Mt. Olympus instead (even got free passes from our Pepsi rep). It was fun, and I got some stuff done that I wouldn't have otherwise.
