Title: Help identifying front end
Post by: mrtim30 on October 31, 2014, 01:18:15 pm

I was in a shop today that had 4 mame machines and they were using this front end which I liked. The guy in the shop didnt know what it was. Can anybody help?

Could easily be Mala, I could whip up a layout like that pretty quickly.

Yeah, the way the gamelist curves....that's an option in Mala.
I'm pretty sure it's Mala.

Of course, Mala doesn't look like that out of the box.
You make it look however you want.

Yeah that's definitely mala, unless someone's had a go at customizing some of the older front ends like atomic fe, or mamewah.  Mala comes with is own theme (sorry i mean layout) builder, so you'd be a fool not to use it for this kind of setup.  As themes go it's a pretty basic one, you've got your screenshot and just a list of games, including a vertical layout rather than a horizontal like most themes.
