      Replaced all 3dboxes versions for Atari 7800 for better ones, if you downloaded before please download it again. Sorry but it's a work in progress.

      New version of the tools with the "characters after a dot" bug fixed. Please if you use the tools download it again.

            Updated all Atari 7800 stuff, added missing media, now 100% completed except for prototypes.

            All videos are USA versions, except for the games only made for europe, if you have europe roms, use fatmatch program provided in tools, it will rename the videos and marquees and create duplicates for you to match all romset.

              @Nismo What's your source for the artwork and videos? Are you using emumovies as a source?
              Do you use the no-intro sets as a base for consoles and Tosec for the computer systems? For CD Only consoles Ps1, Sega CD do you use Redump or Trurip?

                @Rion For videos i'm downloading from here: http://www.arcadepunks.com/download-hyperspin-video-media/

                But for better filesize, and to no overheat rpi, I'm re-encoding the videos to max 480 width, and max 25 fps, with good compromise about quality and filesize.

                I also compress 3D boxes and marquees.

                If some video, 3d box, or marquee (wheel) doesn't exist, I create it from scratch.

                About computers, I didn't touch anything yet, I'm working with consoles right now, and using no-intro romsets.

                What you recomend for computers and CDs?

                Amiga roms I have are in WHDload format.

                Regards.

                  @Nismo Well this is just my personal preferences but this what i use

                  No-Intro, Tosec & Trurip

                  Stay away from Redump for cd based system if you can. If you don't want to end up with multiple *.bin files that you have to rebuild or audio tracks seperated from the image to conserve space and has to be convertet to wav and then rebuilt again in to the iso/bin, cue.

                  No-Intro for consoles.
                  Tosec for Computer systems
                  Trurip for cd based systems

                    @Rion I don't have any .bin files... XD. For psx I use PBP format. For PS2 games y use maxcso, for dreamcast i use chd... etc.

                    Lot of space saving, keep in mind I use it on windows so i have no processing power limits for compressed games.

                    Thanks for the tips.

                                    @Nismo Im looking at your artwork and I'm impressed. Would you mind sharing these to @screech over at screenscraper.fr . Don't want these getting lost. The more the database is growing the better for everyone 😉

                                      @Rion Honestly, I had not stopped to think about it.

                                      Anyway, maybe when I finish this work, I'll get to it. Making the theme , missing 3d boxes and wheel art at the same time it's very time consuming to me.

                                      I don't know why, but screenscraper.fr webpage sometimes it's a lot of slooowww for me. It's takes from 40 seconds to 1 min to load. Now I tested it again and seems a bit faster, but this morning was unusable.

                                      Of course I don't mind to share all the stuff with @screech, I didn't know there was his webpage. You can see i'm sharing it with everybody... :)

                                          It looks amazing, why do you not speak with the RetroPie devs to upload it to the ES themes repo / downloader?
