Any FE's do a smooth snap/marquee animation like CoverFlow? |

--- Quote from: shock_ on January 11, 2007, 10:03:37 am ---I wonder has anyone considered or tried making a front end in Flash? I don't speak Flash or Actionscript myself, but from a moment's googling it seems it can handle launching external applications via EXEC, and would certainly assist those looking for animated everything. No idea how you'd go with LED support etc, but I don't run LED stuff myself so I'm happy without. --- End quote --- Actually I did make one once, never could get it to work right though, flash can be finiky about opening up external programs correctly. |

--- Quote ---IDEA If SWINDUS could change MaLa so that a screen saver option is that all it did was trigger a Plug-in but NOT run it's built in Video or screen saver. That way someone could build a Video screen saver that would suit your needs --- End quote --- --- Quote ---Yes that would be nice, --- End quote --- Looks like this idea got the thumbs up from the Main man 8) :cheers: |

I think Ultrastyle used to do something similar, but is not being updated anymore and stopped working with Mame around version .84. The only problem I have with a layout like that is that with a huge amount of games, it would be difficult to page through to find the game you wanted. But... Coupled with a search feature, perhaps not so bad. Hmmm.... |

How about a fe that writes itself so none of us have to add any of this crap? ;D |
