Neo Geo X Build

I agree with @ruckage , to have more possibilities on theming is a huge positive imo. Look at front-ends like: hyperspin, launchbox, bigbox, pandoras box to name a few. Some of these themes that people like/want from other front ends is now becoming possible to port or have inspiration from with the new features of Retropie. Like ruckage said, you have the option in ES menu to change back and forth with detailed, video, grid etc. so the options are all up to the end-user.
Grid view is going to be a huge update to Retropie, some great themes are going to become available, multi grid, single horizontal grid, vertical grid (imagine the wheel in hyperspin). the possibilities are endless and also not forgetting the other new upcoming features such as md_name in all views, carousel enhancements and more. The devs are doing a fantastic job. -
Maybe it would be more comfortable to create a repository in github ... is it possible?

:) this is sweeeeeet!

@ruckage BRILLIANT!!! i am glad you are reworking this excellent theme, maybe the neo-geo classic has you feeling the MEGA SHOCK? and it rekindled the fire for this theme...? ; ) anyway brother, dont forget about us 4:3 and 5:4 arcade cabinet users too!
also i have purchased a neo-geo x dock and 2 sticks and will be looking forward to your gold &nblack AES theme for that build im doing.

@ruckage Hi!
Can you share with us your template Neo-Geo MVS Mayflash F500 artwork?
Thanks also! -
@ruckage I know you have been extremely busy, but is there a chance you could release the Arcade icon for the main screen? Thanks for all youve done and I hope to hear back from you soon.

Is it possible to show a "game-image.png" then the "game-video.mp4" ? I can only seem to get the video preview to play, unlike on your snes mini theme where you can display the game image then a second or two later the video preview plays

Trying to remember of f the top of my head but I think this is what did it for me (in the neo.xml file):
<video name="md_video"> <size>0.475 0.6222222222222222</size> <pos>0.4989583333333333 0.1740740740740741</pos> <origin>0 0</origin> <delay>1.0</delay> <showSnapshotNoVideo>true</showSnapshotNoVideo> <showSnapshotDelay>true</showSnapshotDelay> <zIndex>-100</zIndex> </video> -

@ruckage question...

please watch video until the end, the theme is missing then appears, it also does this randomly between categories sometimes starting black then background appearing, is it the format of the image or...? i dunno, pls help, why does it do that and how do i fix it.

@ruckage I need to ask you an honest question, If myself and my son put a bounty source up for £77.86 for you to finish the Neo-Geo theme in 4:3, 5:4 and 16:9 would that encourage you to do so?

You made a similar promise in the past for a $50 donation to add 4:3 support in time for you sons graduation but you didn't deliver....
-
@ruckage as you didn't deliver and finish the theme, i had to start modifying it to fit my needs to complete it in time, thus withdrew my offer and just to let you know i included the previous promissory of $50 usd into the new offer of $100 usd and will be securing it within bountysource so there isn't any party discrepancies this time around, so i ask you... would you agree to this?
also could you look at the video and tell me what you think the problem is... thanks.

You asked for 4:3 support - I kept my promise and added 4:3 and also 5:4 support which was a huge amount of work and if you were to put an actual value on it far more work than even the $100 you say you are now offering. I only ever planned Neo Geo and Capcom for this theme with any other systems being a bonus if I decided to add them.
Without all my work on the 4:3 that was done at short notice and was never originally planned you certainly wouldn't have been able to complete your build ready for your sons graduation/birthday.
I'm sorry but I get the feeling that whatever I do you will continually move the goal posts (as you have previously when you suddenly asked for multiple categories to be added) and you obviously don't appreciate the amount of work involved. -
Sorry to jump in between here. I just wanted to know if there was any major change in this theme since the very beginning.
I am not sure what version I have but I guess it is the very first download that was available here.
@ruckage did you add anything new except for the 4:3/5:4 support?
Just wanna make sure i didn't miss anything. -

Just wanna make sure i didn't miss anything.The 4:3 was the only major change. Since then I've got the grid view working for marquees (or screenshots if you prefer) as well but It needs some tweaking/testing before I can release it.
Contributions to the project are always appreciated, so if you would like to support us with a donation you can do so here.
