I guess here have been a few post on this but I have come up with the answer if anyone wants to use the generic MVS cab theme until newer themes are created....

From the current Neo Geo Themes copy the below to the MAME folder

1. Copy the small marquee to Artwork 1
2. Copy the large marquee to Artwork 4
3. Copy the Wheel images to the MAME wheel images

Change the MAME.ini in the settings folder setting to match Neo Geo

[artwork1 defaults]
x = 560
y = 110
rotation = 0
animation_time = .5
animation_type = ease
animation_start = top
animation_rest = none

[artwork2 defaults]
x = 200
y = 500
rotation = 0
animation_time = .5
animation_type = ease
animation_start = right
animation_rest = none

[artwork3 defaults]
x = 200
y = 400
rotation = 0
animation_time = .5
animation_type = ease
animation_start = left
animation_rest = none

[artwork4 defaults]
x = 800
y = 450
rotation = 7
animation_time = .5
animation_type = ease
animation_start = right
animation_rest = none

[Special Art A]
default = false
active = true
x = 512
y = 720
in = .4
out = .4
length = 3
delay = .1
type = normal
start = bottom

[Special Art B]
default = true
active = true
x = 512
y = 740
in = .4
out = .4
length = 3
delay = .1
type = fade
start = none

[Game Text]
game_text_active = true
show_year = true
show_manf = true
show_description = true
text_color1 = 0xffffff
text_color2 = 0x0099cc
stroke_color = 0x000000
text_font = Style1
text1_textsize = 26
text1_strokesize = 7
text1_x = 32
text1_y = 610
text2_textsize = 36
text2_strokesize = 8
text2_x = 30
text2_y = 640

[Genre Screen]
allgames_title = All Games
text_color = 0x000000
text_x = 150
text_y = 200
stroke_color = 0xffffff
stroke_size = 7

There is 1 more thing - U can change ur default background in the MAME folder to the MVS cab pic, but then if its not a Neo Geo game u still get that pic so I dont advise this. I have created backgrounds for all the miising Neo Geo/MAME these that I upload to the ftp if anyone is interested.

Just need to stick em in this folder

HyperSpin\Media\MAME\Images\Backgrounds
