Title: Is this possible? Images for available "gamelists" for paritcular emulators
Post by: KnightofTruth on March 09, 2009, 03:09:02 pm

Okay, so while traversing the infinite space of the internet, I found a layout someone had created (see attached picture).  It was done for mamewah, but as you can see, it appears they have icons at the top of the screen for different "genres" or gamelists.  When not available, (as can be seen in one of the lower boxes) only the available icons show themselves.

Is this something that we're able to do using Mala? If not I guess this is a feature request.  If so, then this is a help request! :)

I looks just like the layouts were well planned so it gave the illusion of the icon moving around as you change lists.

So yes I think you could do that in MaLa

Ahhhh.... the ole "create the illusion that the icon is actually moving" trick - darn, should've known that.  Well, I guess for the time being I'll have to try and recreate the illusion myself haha.  If anyone has any tips to debunk the illusion, let me know here please, thanks!

Isn't there a plugin or utility that will convert mamewah layout into mala ones?
