@Malixx Think you could do something like the BS-X startup as a splashscreen?

@lilbud I've never seen that before and OMG THAT MUSIC heart emoji x 1,000

[lilbud]

@livefastcyyoung The whole OST is very Earthbound like

[SuperFromND]

@lilbud Haha, yeah I'd totally love to see a Satellaview Retropie screensaver!
(on a side note: someone should port over that BSX-supported bsnes build that LuigiBlood made to Retroarch so we can run that stuff on RetroPie, would be neato)

[lilbud]

@supercatfooz Why? Most of the satellaview stuff has been dumped and converted to roms. Including:

• BS Zelda
• Ancient Stone Tablets

[Hyruleslink]

@lilbud Isn't a pain to play Ancient Stone Tablets though as is? It's been awhile since I've taken a look at it, but wasn't split into 4 roms and you had to rename the save file before you started another rom?

@hyruleslink said in Animated Screensavers:

Ancient Stone Tablets

I believe its been compiled into one complete game and rom.

[Malixx]

@lilbud Yeah sure, it will take a lot of time though, I had a base for the NES one... :/ I suck at pixel art, it's challenging but I will try!

[Hyruleslink]

Hey there @Malixx how have you been? Are you still making the Mega Man X screensaver?

[Malixx]

@hyruleslink Hehe what's up, well it is on my to do list I started it but it's kinda difficult to find an official artwork that can work on it without re-drawing everything :( but fear not I don't forget, I will do it some day somehow!

[lilbud]

@malixx Maybe try this site: https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/images/138

They have a lot of very high quality art for many games.

Thank you!! I'm gonna get some of these and leave my screensaver to change every 30 seconds haha...
P/s: my roommate said he's gonna stare at them all day long :D

[Malixx]

@hyruleslink You motivated me ;) here is the Megaman X Screensaver (I couldn't recreate the castle in the background though) and thanks @lilbud for the artworks:

[Hyruleslink]

@malixx I'm glad I could help motivate you! This looks great Malixx Man X! lol. These screensavers you've made are one of my favorite extras I've added to the 'Pie. Can't wait to see the next one! :)

[Malixx]

@lilbud I did what I can!

[lilbud]

@malixx

But seriously, this looks frickin awesome! How in the hell do you make these? What software do you use?

[A Former User]

@malixx WOW.

[Malixx]

@lilbud @LiveFastCyYoung Thank you guys! I'm using Photoshop/Illustrator for the images and After Effects for the animations

[Hyruleslink]

Hey @Malixx how have you been? I had my RetroPie going last Saturday during a 16 person Smash Bros tournament and a lotta people loved your screensavers! Someone mentioned that they would like to see a Donkey Kong Country screensaver. Just wanted to pass along the complements to the chef!

[Malixx]

@hyruleslink Aww thank you it warms my heart, I will try to make the DK Country soon!
