Joystick animation? #26

Closed ghost closed 4 years ago

ghost commented 4 years ago

While in Mame, Joystick animation shows only main menu joystick (the red one: Next/Previous System) and not the light blue one (Next/Previous Game) used for the systems themelves - is this by design or a bug?

ghost commented 4 years ago

Great, the joysticks are now working properly. There is no "Press Start" or "Free Play" animations in any of the systems displays. They show on the main menu though,

"Press start" and "freeplay" in an hyperspin default installation the file SpecialBx.swf , if your system themes does not have any specialB file , it does not display , altough if you want the specialB artwork from MainMenu you must have that in the system_name.ini

[Special Art B]
default=true
active=true

exactly as Hyperspin

Can you please upload all your ini files that you have in the pcca/settings folder so we use the exact same data for testing? It will make our testing more effective.

pcca-matrix commented 4 years ago

posting the ini will not help since I change them very often to test all the options. it will rather be necessary that i explain each option / value in the redame !

but here is an ini with almost all the options


[sounds]
game_sounds=true
wheel_click=true

[themes]
animate_out_default=false
reload_backgrounds=false
bezels_on_top=false
crt_scanline=true

[pointer]
x=976
y=385
animated=true
fade=false

[wheel]
alpha=0.40
speed=high
fade_time=-1
slots=12

[Special Art A]
default=false
active=true
x=512
y=640
in=2.2
out=.5
length =  3
delay=0
type=bounce
start=bottom

[Special Art B]
default=true
active=true
x=512
y=540
in=3.2
out=1.5
length=5
delay=0
type=fade
start=none

Ok I figured everything out - disregard any other post you might have recieved on this issue. All I needed to do was set the x and y to 0 and that's it.

Resolved!

Ehhhem, well not closed yet. The 'press start' special art shows only once. When it disappears it doesn't get shown again in the mame system. It works as intended in the main menu.

did yout test with the last commit?

for the x, y alignments, I wonder if I will not put them in alignment by the center of the image like in HS! What do you think ?

With fix #26 it works 👍 Resolved.
