![]() ![]() ‘Super Nintendo Entertainment System’ and ‘Super Nintendo Entertainment System – Simple’ At-The-Arcade and Hyperspin Theme Mode are both for MAME Some themes have been renamed so they are easier to find by new users, for example: ‘OlRoom Super Famicom’ is now ‘Nintendo Super Famicom – OlRoom’ and ‘Lava v1.3’ is now ‘Nintendo Entertainment System – Lava v1.3’. Themes that were deemed not-good-enough where removed. There are still few non-original themes waiting to replaced in the next version. Someone asked me so I’ll be clear: All original themes were created by a team that includes me me and me! ![]() There are new original themes for the Nintendo Gamecube, Nintendo 64, Nintendo SNES, Nintendo Super Famicom, Sega Dreamcast, Sega Saturn Japan, Sega 32X, Sega CD, NEC PC Engine, NEC TurboGrafx-16, Atari 2600, Atari 5200, Colecovision, Mattel Intellivision and Magnavox Odyssey 2! Default cart and box art is included in some the themes – mainly in those that use actual carts that are inserted into the console. The themes are more intelligent now – if the wheel is not partially or completely hidden, the layout will relocate the position of the box and cart art. I’ve hacked a little (well very little) the pan-and-scan module to create hovering animations which are non-intrusive and provide a more lively theme to look at. The wheel logos are now by default opaque – it’s such beautiful art so why hide it? (can be turned back to semitransparent of course – but you will never be my friend if you do so). The current wheel logo can have a pulse animation (looping or just once) which is not only cool but visually important if you choose to hide the wheel pointer as it emphasizes the current selection. The wheel’s position can now be adjusted so themes can have more space for their art, it’s logos can be set to large or small with their art aspect ratio kept or not (which is especially good for the vertical wheel option). In the last 3 weeks I have worked tirelessly rewriting a large portion of the themes layout code so it includes a more sophisticated wheel, more animations and more features in general. The Great Theme Collection version 3.0 is here and youuu are going to love it! ![]()
