Notes:

- These system themes makes use of Hyperspin's frontend Wheel Art for each game title (such as the Atari 2600 cart images) which you can obtain if your a member of there community. I will not be releasing any of them in consideration of the artists who made them or you can create your own!! There are other places to find good wheel art as well try Google.

- To use the wheel art for each title you'll need to use GameEx's setup wizard and point your wheel art to each emulators Box Art Path. Then create a Custom Art path for your box images. To take it a step further you can use the setup wizard to change the custom text that displays the word Box and change it to Wheel Art or whatever other name you want.

- Font used for this theme was the Trebuchet MS (size 34).

- Each filename of the systems ini file might be different then what you have on your setup so you may need to just copy and paste what data I have for those systems to yours so everything lines up correctly.

- Enjoy!

Ok with the talk of discontinuing my Gameroom theme I figured I better show you guys a sneek peek of what the updated themes will look like. Just so you know that the new improved themes will look more polished I think!

[uPDATE]

- Revised the background graphics.

- Change the Bally/Wulff logo to the Bally Midway logo.

- Added the "A LASER VIDEO SYSTEM" logo.

[Krakerman]

Starting on the console's today. First up the Atari 2600/5200/7800's title screens!

[Krakerman]

Pinball Classics! Includes Visual Pinball with either Yellow/Green or the Red/Yellow logo and Future Pinball

(With more to come!!). These are just the Title screens not the individual game themes those will come later.

[Krakerman]

Computer Collections!! This will be the custom menu for all the old computer systems. Here is a peek at the Commodore 64 title screen that will be included with the Computer Collections.

[Krakerman]

Now how about those Casino Games.

[Krakerman]

Ok guys here is a little suprise for ya! Here is the first Visual Pinball table theme for "Cosmic Gunfight"!!

Hope you like it. These will include the instruction cards as well.

[KRC]

All of the above looks good, keep up the good work!

[Krakerman]

Thanks KRC! I think you guys will like this theme better than the original Gameroom.

Here is an improved Cosmic Gunfight and a couple new ones ... Williams "Black Knight 2000" and Bally's "Paragon" theme!!

These will be the final look for the Visual Pinball table themes.

[Krakerman]

With the Black Knight table theme I've made some little touches to the stereo speakers and used custom instruction cards.

[Tempest]

Nice!

[Krakerman]

Thanks Tempest!

Yeah I think that turned out really nice. Here is a few more tables Flash, Attack From Mars and the

Revenge From Mars table themes!!

[Krakerman]

Ok guys I've changed my mind and have decided to keep the Gameroom theme available. Reason being is with the Gameroom v2 theme I am taking the MAME game themes in a different direction with the artwork. Here is a pic of my latest WIP to show you the direction in which I am taking MAME and the other arcade systems.

Just like the pinball themes I prefer the new cabinet views. I will be changing Daphne as well to the new format soon.

[KRC]

Nice, I like the way this theme is heading. Not saying there was anything wrong with V1 but I think I do prefer this one.

[Tempest]

+1

[Krakerman]

Glad you like it as I was a bit concerned if you guys would like the direction I was taking the themes. I thought since I was changing the look of the frontend I might as well give it a whole new look instead of a rehash of the old theme. There are a few things I want to improve upon on the old theme which I will work on later. Tonight I started my second cabinet which is Scramble!

[Krakerman]

Been working tonight on revising this theme once again as am not happy with the direction I was taking the artwork and want to get this theme back to the original roots of the original so I will have some new pics for you soon with the updated graphics. The Pinball and the Arcade themes which I know you guys seem to like will be saved for my next theme which is yet to be named. So all pics that I have posted have been removed as they are no longer valid. As for the Original Gameroom I will be deleting that theme and packs as soon as I have this theme ready. This theme will come with updated theme packs to replace the original and are the same but improved graphically. So if you liked the original you will like this one as well.

Stay tuned!

Sorry KRC I know you liked what I was doing with this theme but I think it will be better if I save it for another theme all together and keep the Gameroom theme in tact graphically if that makes any sense at all. One major changes will be all the title screens.

[KRC]

You should do whatever you think is right and feel comfortable with

[Krakerman]

Ok here is the updated WIP Gameroom v2 menu system with a sample of the revised MAME game theme (Pac-Man).

Starting to come along .....

[Krakerman]

Here are the updated Daphne, MAME and Neo-Geo themes. Daphne and NeoGeo are using KRC's logo's.

I like them alot as they keep the menu system much cleaner. I've modded your logo a tad by adding bezels around them to give them that extra pop! for the theme.

[Krakerman]

Ok I had to revise this once more. I reduced the size of the logos as they seemed a bit stretched and so I made them a bit more proportional with the screen.

[KRC]

They look good, Is that my Daphne banner, I cant remember as I havent looked at them in a while.

[Krakerman]

Yup! On the Atomiswave and Neo Geo I needed to move the text over a bit so I had to mod it a bit.

[KRC]

I just couldn't remember putting Dirk in there.

[Krakerman]

This is why it's a WIP as I've made a few more changes and improvements to the theme as well as how this theme works with KRC's logos. Now it will be much much much easier to add any logo you want or the ability to create your own.
