[donald]

Hello,

Sorry, I forget to put message here...
So my english is very bad... please decode me !!!!
Several System for download (look my files donald)
Amstrad, Apple II, Atari 2600, jaguar etc...

Today PC Engine new page for cards.
(I use teh excellent main system turbo graphic 16 for CD)

Do you like my works ? if yes do you want anothers systems ?

Hyperspin is very great but it need mains pages for olds computers systems.

A+:)

Could you post any screenshots?

[donald]

Hi shots forgot !!!
Here my shot
3 pics : PCE main, PCE games, PCE choosed (key H)

[BadBoyBill]

You got way to much going on in that second screenshot. Dont try to make HS look like other FE's if possible , give it some personality.

Hello,

In first snap you can look Main menu all system.
I hide (a few) the list system wheels for more good view.

Second snap you cann look you the choose game system PC ENgine of course, view all games... titles, boxs, shots and videos.

The snap 3 look the page when you use key H for list genre
(list games J, games U cards and also doc for me !!!!)
I do'nt found other way in HS (that key H) for this !!!!

This is not for one game but for ALL GAMES PCE
you use shot,s boxs, cards screens and videos ....
Much more aisy for MAME one game but not for a new big system.

Strange... nobody for C64 games ..... more 10.000 roms.

What goodie is lose ?

Install it, try it and look
Of course that can be more perfect
:itsme:

Looks nice. A little to much on the second pic. Maybe overlay the snap with the video. You normally do not need both. In the end I like it.

[donald]

yes that is exact
the problem .... there are only 99 videos and.... 300 games screenshots
screenshots are not alway the same pic that video.

[BadBoyBill]

Im hugely against screenshots in HS, it actually takes away from the FE in my opinion. Just my opinion though.

[BadBoyBill]

Also you should consider moving the text up, most people here use the "Press Start" "Free Play" artwork and the joysticks, in this theme your text will be covered up. Keep it simple, dont cram everything into the theme.

I see great use for screenshots, original CP pic, box art, etc., but I would see that as a future addition to HS, not as an addition to a present theme because it can make it look too cluttered. My hopes would be that in the future while looking at a game specific theme, pressing fire button 1 pops up a new artwork layer (call it "artwork cart") and a pic of the cart pops up. Press fire button 2 pops up the original CP, pressing firebutton 3 pops up a pic of the cab. That way, nothing is in the way and they only get activated if the USER enables it. Best of both world.

Sorry for the side track Donald. I do like the theme though pic two does seem a little too cluttered to me.

[donald]

In fact, i study that
I works the first pic (image goodie too small and perfectible), the second present a problem for me but i think to hide snapshot if there is a video and adapt this more larger.
I remove a few transparent for more view titles wheels view.

[donald]

It's possible to change the picture snap if you use button joystick ?
That is a very good idea and excellent solution... but how I can do it ?

Another problem for me, I can't put the video in front of all pictures.
I can put video pic in front the artwork1 but I can't put in front artwork2,3 and 4 (he stay behind).
I can of course remove the screenshot if video exist but what i do for Box ?
I think this is a great goodie to have videos for PCEngine (US) (Very thank at emumovies)

Of course I better like the games themes.

I need help.
Thank

My current video project is a remake of TG16 and I am now adding all of PCEngine, I am already 150 vids in and they are all HiQ. Will be done shortly and then you wont have to worry about snaps.

[donald]

Whooo !!!
Very great works.

I created videos for the very old Apple II (but it's long long time to pass)
If I finish these (but there a lot) I contact you.

My flv video are a short too big... difficult to create small goods videos.
I've 170 videos games Apple II for the moment (very few)

For PCengine (turbo16) I wait because it's not a computer but console and there are often all in web for the console (i think).

Thank for the videos, i by for snes video soon but I use (E) and (F) roms today.
