Put the .lay files in the artwork folder. --- Quote ---The .lay files include the views for artwork from Mr Do. But you will have to download all the artwork itself from his website if you wish to use it. Otherwise, if you choose those views in mame, you will get a funny looking screen. --- End quote --- You may also need to pull up the video options menu in MAME and select the appropriate display option like you mentioned in your last post. Scott Edit: Step-by-step directions on what goes where in later post here. |

Ok PL1. Help a dense old-timer out. How does one get these bezels to show up in Mame? Do I need all of your artwork and the .lay files from Mr. Do in the artwork folder? Not getting this for some reason... |

Here's what you need to do: 1. Go to here, scroll down to the top of the table and click on the "WS" link in the middle of the first row. 2. Scroll down through the table and download the .ZIP files (contains 16:9 PNG, 16:10 PNG, and layout file) for the desired games from the mirror links in the right column. Create a MAME\artwork\WS temporary folder to save the .ZIP file(s) so you don't accidently overwrite them when you do step 3. (same filenames, different content) 3. Download the In-Game Artwork .zip files for any desired games from the links in the far right column here. Save the .zip file(s) in your MAME\artwork folder. 4. Open the .zip file(s) you downloaded into the artwork\WS folder during step 2. 5. Drag and drop the .LAY and .PNG files onto the corresponding .ZIP file(s) you downloaded in step 3 -- i.e. drag arkanoid.lay, arkan169.png, and arkan1610.png from the artwork\WS\arkanoid.zip to the artwork\arkanoid.zip icon and drop it. This overwrites the old .lay file with the new WS .lay file and adds the WS .PNGs -- the new files still have the old Mr. Do options if you want to revert back to them. 6. Launch the game, go to the "Video Options" Menu, and select the desired view from the list at the top of the menu. :cheers: Scott EDIT: Updated URLs and corrected the procedure. |

If you want a generic MAME bezel on ALL vertical games you can try this great hack. The only downside is it only works with MAME 0.139 or lower. You also need to recompile your MAME.exe to support it. I did it on my MAME .119 and it worked great. http://mrdo.mameworld.info/mame_artwork_generic.php DeLuSioNaL29 |
