Splash in MALA (see the snap of the launched game)

(1/2) > >>

Do you know the old HyperSplash in HyperSpin?

Now when you launch a game from MALA you will see the full screen snap before playing.
You can download splash from here.

The zip contains four files that you must put in your mame (emulator) dir. Those files are:
splash.exe
splash.png
splashOri.png
splash.ini

In MALA,
1.- You must put splash.exe like your exe emulator.
2.- Add to the end of the command line %rom%.png
For mame, the command line will be
%rom% %rom%.png

In splash.ini
[option]
Executable=mame.exe
PathSnap=C:\mame\snap\
SnapFullScreen=1

Executable is the name of your exe emulator. I've only tested it with mame but it must work fine with some emulator.
PathSnap is the path to your snaps ending with \
SnapFullScreen is equal to 1 to see the snap in fullscreen or 0 not.

Greetings.

Nice idea!
Thanks Empardopo!

BadMouth:
Nice.  I can think of some other uses for this like displaying game controls or flyers.

You can use the path you want. The png files must be named with the same name of the selected rom.
Theoretically, the program should work well for any emulator.

In the last version of my AllInOneFYC program (1.055b) you can see a screenshot pressing the button that you have defined.

Greetings.

empardopo:
New version here.

Now, the ini file is thus:

--- Quote ---[option]
Executable=mame.exe
PathSnap=C:\mame\snap\
SnapFullScreen=1
Log=1

--- End quote ---

Log can only contain the values 0 or 1.

If Log=1 then Splash make a splash.log file with important information.

Thanks
