Tutorial: Handheld and Plug & Play systems with MAME

I don't know. Go for the best one. If the coloured background is better, go for the coloured one. Good catch. Good catch. I only use MAME standalone and the MAME artworks format, so I never see the Retroarch backgrounds.

I prefer ballbg.png to be the Background.png.
Can you change that in your artwork file ?
Please keep the old Background.png as backup in your artwork file, might be handy some time.
You could call the old backup something like simplebg.png.

t3in1sa background should be exist, but I can't find it. Any chance on your side?

@DTEAM

Will have look.
No luck yet to find the artwork files.

Could the artwork of t7in1ss be usable ?
Just checked but seems we don't have the artwork of t7in1ss.
And it doesn't match as it is from a different manufacturer :

This already gives an impression of how t3in1sa should look like :

Confusing but adb.arcadeitalia gives a different impression (however seems not correct) :

~~The good one is the one from adb.arcadeitalia (the last picture). That version is a single player game.~~

New edit: Sorry, it's a 2 players game. First one is the good one

That cannot be the case or that driver is called differently.
This is how the t3in1sa driver looks without artwork.
It matches the other overlays.

Searched for the other one and found this :

Looked in the mame database and it seems it's not part of mame.
