Post by: LunarLoveLust on August 24, 2003, 01:48:54 pm: Damn, they look great. Try looking at the old X-men on alongside the new one...

But I have to restart my computer, hopefully I can just click the link again and it'll start.

Plus i'll leave it on when I leave for work in about an hour...

I called them MAME MARQUEES By PAIGE.ZIP

Title: Re:Paige's Marquees on a Torrent
Post by: IceCold on August 30, 2003, 11:09:30 pm: I put this file on my ftp if anybody wants to download it. Please don't download if you're on dialup(I don't want to have to leave it running for days). You can download it at ftp://65.25.101.232/MARQUEES.ZIP

Disclaimer: I haven't looked at the files in this zip. If there is any copyrighted material or anything, I was and am unaware of it. I am not responsible if you do anything illegal with these files.

Post by: JoyMonkey on August 31, 2003, 01:25:35 am: I'm not having any luck downloading :-\

By any chance, could some kind soul split it up into a few RARs and
post it on alt.binaries.emulators.mame?
Title: Re:Paige's Marquees on a Torrent
Post by: paigeoliver on August 31, 2003, 02:35:35 am: For those of you that DON'T know what these are. This is the unofficial marquee pack. This adds marquees to the majority of the games that were missing them.

If you are looking for a bunch of 100 percent authentic marquees, then look elsewhere, but if you want your front end to be able to display a marquee for basically everything but the Mahjonng games, then these are for you.

Many of the added marquees are authentic.

Many were created in photoshop using graphics from the flyer or manual.

Many were created from a title shot.

A few are marquees/graphics to entirely different things that have the same name.

A few (sequels mostly), are different marquees/graphics altered to fit the sequel.

A few are basic titles on a color, done with the Atari font.

Title: Re:Paige's Marquees on a Torrent
Post by: jdjuggler on September 06, 2003, 11:55:15 pm: Can anyone make the Marquees available again... I tried ftp://65.25.101.232/MARQUEES.ZIP and got a 1kb zip file.
Kazaa would be fine... Or some other way..
Thanks,
JD

Post by: knuttz on September 08, 2003, 02:17:29 am: I also need these again. Kazaa or Bit torrent would be fine. Thanks.

I am new at this and do not know what that means but it sounds bad. :(

Thanks,

Title: Re:Paige's Marquees on a Torrent
Post by: JoyMonkey on September 11, 2003, 09:22:54 pm: I'm still trying to get hold of it too.

I'm thinking a post to the binaries newsgroup or if someone could upload it to a relieable FTP source for a couple of days would give everyone the chance to grab it and share it around some more.

Pwitty pweeze?
Title: Re:Paige's Marquees on a Torrent
Post by: IceCold on September 13, 2003, 02:08:30 am: I had it on my ftp for at least 5 days. But then I ran out of space on my hard drive, and had to delete the file. I'd put it back on the ftp, but I no longer have the file.
Title: Re:Paige's Marquees on a Torrent
Post by: JackTucky on September 14, 2003, 10:25:43 pm: If someone could FTP it to my site, I could host it for a week or two (until my bandwith is done)

Post by: jdjuggler on October 08, 2003, 11:02:59 am: If JackTucky's ftp is still available, can someone ftp to his site and let us know when it's available.
Thanks.
Title: Re:Paige's Marquees on a Torrent
Post by: JackTucky on October 08, 2003, 11:52:00 am: Yeah, I'd have to give them access, but i can host it for awhile.

Contact me and let's do it!

I can leave my bitTorrent client up for a few weeks after that
