Skinning Mameox128_plus_ver20060505

Gentlemen,

 

Just created a PM3 skin for Mameox 128 Plus. Everything is

superbly fine - however I was not able to change few things:

 

1 - The Insert Coin color variation/blinking (in splash screen)

 

2 - The position of the text "Ver 20060505" and the color of the

scrolling marquee with the thanks message

 

3 - Color from the rom list (in all modes [names, screenshots, verbose]).

It is always black!

 

Are those things hard coded inside the XBE?

I looked all over the skin.ini and found nothing directly related to them!

 

Thanks for the attention,

Cospefogo.

Thanks for the re-post, GameCop!

 

I wonder why it is so difficult to have a answer to my questions.

I am just tying to improve yet more the wonderful emulation scene on Xbox,

however it looks like it's dying, it's a pity!

 

I even tried hex-editing on Mameox128 but had no success at all.

Will need to quit my project of Skinning Mameox.

 

Cheers,

Cospefogo.

Oh!

Thanks for your visit here, Mr. BritneysPAIRS!

I did adapt my Project Mayhem III skin to the actual displaying way as

seen on MAMEoX 128 Plus.

 

You did mention MAMEDOX Plat 1 and Plat 2, I never thought

about trying them, since 128 Plus works fine for my needs.

 

Should I try them?

Anyone has an advice, a tip perhaps?

 

My DSL is a bit slow to download huge 4GB files,

so I want to be certain of their goodness before

start downloading!

 

All the best,

Cospefogo.

 

NEVER MIND!

Just found the explanation about all MAMEs here!

Hah,

Already reskined! (only backgrounds and logo changed, not much.)

 

I can show you, but maybe you don't approve it, since I "masked"

the scrolling text out of my skin. It makes me remember those ugly

marquee HTML tags used a lot back in the 90's.

 

I really prefer credit names in a stand still way.

 

Let me know if you want to see the work!

I can put somewhere in the net for download.

 

Namaste,

Cospefogo.

you can send it but ill be changing the skin engine to suit the new skin as well. I can remove the splash skin in about 2 seconds, just thinking of the best way to simpli things
