Question

[DJ Infinity]

good evening all. I have decided to completely redo my cabinet. What I would like to know is if Game Ex has a plugin that works with a pixlecade display. So my cab will so look like the picture when the game is launched. Thanx

I think ledblinky covers that.

[DJ Infinity]

yes the other launcher uses led blinky. so there is a plugin that uses it for Game Ex?

ok, I got it all setup. the only problem I have is when it comes across a game there is no marquee for (Tapper) for instance is scrolls  defense command across the marquee. It's annoying. How to you get it to display a regular Mame logo instead?

 

[Draco1962]

May be simple. Have a file of the MAME image named for each missing marquee. I do not believe that LEDBlinky has a default image option but it is something that you could approach the author@arzoo.

Thanx Draco. I figured it out. After I tried next Rom version and a marquee showed up. :)

Glad you got it sorted. Next you need to play with displaying hi scores for MAME games that support them.

🤔 is there a way to do this? Well for right now I'm setting up systems using Retroarch. I've got Mame & HBMame looking nice with the Bezel Project with the marquee displayed. I may or may not use model 2 & 3 jury is still out on those. Oh the PS3 and Switch emulator will be used also.

Read through and search the instructions - some screen captures from the instructions where there are some selectable inputs. It is important that you use the latest hi-2-txt app and db as noted in the instructions.
