Maxiumus screenshot question
« on: October 05, 2008, 05:45:26 pm »
So I went to this link...
 
http://www.localarcade.com/screenshotarchive/screenshots.htm

ALL the images are ".png" files    Is this right?

...and downloaded the 855 USA nes screen shots and pointed Maximus in the images section to a folder titled "screenshots" with the 855 screenshots in it.

Then when I launch Maximus no screenshots appear with the 7 nes roms currently in Maximus.  All I keep seeing is the NES console where the screenshots are supposed to be?

Maybe someone can give the basics for loading screen shots with Maximus and maybe a better link to a wesite with screenshots in the proper format?

Thanks

The filenames for the roms and screenshots have to match exactly. I use the "no-intro" roms, screenshots, and video sets  that way they are all named exactly. If you only have a few roms you can just do it manually or use the screen shot function on maximus to make your own screenshots.
 Also you may need to right click on the game list and choose "rescan media"

Thank you, thank you!!!  Works perfectly now!!

Exactly... just had to rename the file.  :cheers:

I tried looking for the no-intro site but it looks like they are gone.

Do you or does anyone know where to get complete packages of screens and you know what?

Thanks again!!
