Attract Mode Video
« on: November 12, 2004, 07:36:43 pm »
I'm working on "attract mode" videos for when users aren't playing their MAME machines.

The first one is a fly-through of a bunch of characters from fighting games. I've got most everyone from Marvel VS Capcom, and now I've started to add some more from other games.

I'm going for sheer numbers here during the fly-through. I want the players to be overwhelmed by all the characters and find new characters each time they watch it that they haven't seen previously.

Also, I can't remember, but which emulator supports this? I saw it done for one but can't remember which.

Please post construct comments only. I'll post a video eventually.

Thanks!

I believe mamewah will allow you to set up a screensaver in the options someplace... not sure how yours is setup etc...

It's currently 720x486, but I can convert it to any size or format. I need to post a video I think so people can understand what this is.

Looks great so far...but yes a small movie file would be great to get the idea of the effect.

MAMEWAH supports movies for intro / exit, screensaver and game previews.  This would probably make a great intro movie, for people with fighter-artworked cabs especially :)
