Development of module-script generator for lr-mess, lr-mame and mame standalone

@folly
It takes a lot of time to do a "MAME artwork" . If you like this one , I suggest to keep that one.

[Folly]

@dteam

In that case,
I am quite happy with it.
Thank you for making it happen !

@folly
If you have time, send me a photo with a uniform background and I'll see what I can do. But I'm not sure I'll do it quickly.

[Folly]

@dteam

I have to dig them up first that will take some time too.
No rush, in time, I will see if I can send some photo's.
That would be great if we could improve this way ;-)

ps, have to go now, later !!!

@dteam

I have made some pictures, but it's quite difficult to get a good result.
The biggest problem is that the screen reflects images as a mirror and I have to have good light with good white background.

I am hoping to get some better results !

This is my best image up till now (reduced quality and size for upload) :

@dteam

Today I made a great picture and used gimp to get it even better.
Still have to do the zoom version.

This is how it looks like ?
I already edited the artwork layout for this one :
(Do you like it too ?)

[DTEAM]

@folly
Very nice!
You should add a small drop Shadow effect (#5). You will have a deepness effect for the screen (more realistic). Where can I get it!!!

@dteam

Here is the file :

Don't know how to add the small drop shadow effect.
Can you add it ?

Do you have pictures of your final result!

@folly
Very nice!!! Do you like the drop shadow effect? I think it gives a realistic touch

[Folly]

@dteam

Yes I do ! , it gives just that touch ;-)

Shall we replace it on google drive ?

[DTEAM]

@folly
Yes, I'll do it

Perfect.

We should test if the old file is going to be updated.
I think it has to be removed first.

That could be an issue.

Edit :
I tested it and the file wasn't updated.

I added the issue on github :
https://github.com/matthuisman/gdrivedl/issues/19

@dteam

I would like you to add the artwork for videopin for mame .
It's described here :
https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/31255/atari-video-pinball-backdrop

Artwork :
https://www92.zippyshare.com/v/9Gp7lzW5/file.html

It comes from "mame202artworkall".
Perhaps there is more, in there, that can be added.

Though, for lr-mess there isn't a solution yet.

@folly
I found this for Backdrop

https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/22306/update-docs-for-lr-mame2003-plus-artwork-backdrops-bezels/8?_=1631895075858

Looked at the links but could not find a videopin backdrop overlay.
