Title: Marquees for MAME
Post by: Marcade on March 15, 2011, 03:03:51 pm
Where can I get a Marquee collection?
 NIVO's mame screenies complete- is fantastic and I'd love a similar resource for marquees, I'm obviously talking about images for mame not actual cabinet marquees so I'm asking here.
I have found about a hundred images from various sources and have the packs from that french site (that name escapes me)

Does anyone have a site for this, and I suppose the CP and Flyers maybe too?


First post btw and I'm sure going to be on here a lot more as I build my bartop  ;D

just pay the $20 to http://emumovies.com/forums/index.php?app=ccs (http://emumovies.com/forums/index.php?app=ccs) and FTP all the art and video files that you need.

This looks extremly exciting to me... but is there know discs or something that you can buy with all the mame vids on (or large compiled files) as downloading each video or marquee will take forever  :cry:  - still think I'll register though!

Same thing with Mr. Do! each marquee individually will take an age! - if it needs to be done so be it but....

I don’t know what internet connection you have. If you have high speed took me like 20 minuets using FTP to download the entire MAME  video collection. That was like 2000 videos. Well maybe longer then 20 minuets, hour or two to take chunks of video and let them download.

FTP you are basically using an app to connect to his server directly. From there you can basically see his files and folder structure. You just need to select the folder of videos or graphics you want and drag them to you desktop. They all copy at once and the speed is quick.

As for an FTP client I have always used  WS_FTP Professional. http://www.ipswitchft.com/Products/Ws_Ftp_Pro/Index.aspx?redirect=h_index (http://www.ipswitchft.com/Products/Ws_Ftp_Pro/Index.aspx?redirect=h_index)
I am sure there are others and free ones out there I just have not bothered to look.

Filezilla is a good FTP client and free.
