Question on mamewah-art.png

[quarterstringer]

I know the mamewah-art.png is the default image when there is no image available for a particular game. Can I have different mamewah-art.png images?

For example, my skin shows screenshots, marquees and cabinet images. I would like to have 3 different images, a default screenshot, default marquee and default cabinet image.

I tried putting a different mamewah-art.png in the screenshot, marquee and cabinet folders. But that didn't work. Is this possible or is it something that might be considered for a future release?

Good question.  I have the same problem.  Anyone?

per MAMEWAH's  layout.txt file....

emuname-art?. = emulator & artwork specific 'no pic' image

So if you have a MAME.INI in your INI directory then use:

   mame-art1.png
   mame-art2.png
   mame-art3.png

Algain, per the layout.txt file...

    All files are searched for within '[MAMEWAH-PATH]\LAYOUTS\Layout Name\' unless otherwise specified

Hope this helps.

Thank you. That's exactly how to do it.

I renamed the default images so when no image is found, nothing is displayed.  I found that look better for me personally.

Just another option.

I do that too...well just delete the image actually.

Yes, that would make the most sense.  However, I try to keep the original structure and files around as place-holders, that way I don't have to think "now what do I need to call the default image again?" if I choose to add one back.  It's one of those things I do such as comment out code rather than deleting it.  Has saved my butt plenty.

Heh, I know what you mean...I have been deleting a lot of commented out code over the past few weeks so I am crossing fingers and touching wood all round!
