MALA SKIN HELP?

[matt4949]

OK, so I've been playing around with skins for mala fronted. I've got the one I really like (TRON) working. Now how do i get videos of the games to play when scrolling through the game list? I assume I have to find short clip video for my games and place them in the same folder as my skins? Name them the same as my rom names? I am running mala 174 and mame 32ui.

Or do I find snaps and place them in the snap folder in mame? I am sure to figure this out, but any help would be greatly appreciated.

You point MaLa to your snap,marquee and video folders.
You can have them anywhere.
For me for example I have a folder called "Arcade Artwork" , in the folder I have marquees, snaps, and videos. Then again within the folders they are organized by system, be it MAME, NES, SNES, etc.

Your not telling MaLa where to look !
Also in some layouts you will see they have SNAPS and VIDEOS - this way if no video is available you will still see the snap.

OR.........you can even get a fully custom layout from me ! (ALWAYS PUSHING ! lol)

Thanks Mike, I got it working. At least the snaps are working. Keep pushing.
