Thanks for your hard work, much appreciated

ps,  can I ask how you auto generate your logos ? Does it convert text files to logos ?

Creezz67 i use an ahk script , it use databases description and template image to create wheels. I have to create a gui to release it for community, for the moment i have a lot of Work, with exowin3.0 and New spectrum gamebase to convert for hyperspin. But After a little pause i will create this app 😉

Cool, this would be very useful as many systems don't have any logos at all and if a script can create them from a database, that would be great.

Thanks for the reply.

Thanks for this, but no matter what I do I cannot get this to load.

I cannot find the roms anywhere once extracted, so they won't load.

I have pointed it to the Arcade folder,  Board folder etc and nothing will work.

Do you have any images of where the roms path is once extracted that you could post ? or your Rocketlauncher info, as I am sure something must be missing from your setup guide.

Thank again

Hi Creezz67 , In rocket launcher module set "rom Paths" : add the folder containing all the folders (Apps,Arcade,Board,Cartridge,... and files (Autorun.inf,cpcgamesCD.bat,cpcload.dbf,etc....) 

If you do an audit of the games of this system, none will be found, do not worry it's normal. The module launches the Frontend which launches the emulator with the good path of the game.

Tell me if it solve your issue.

Hi,

Thanks for info, all loading now.

Does this use just the keyboard or can I use a controller ?

Tried to use xbox controller, but no luck so far.

Thanks again

Hello , Most of amstrad cpc games can be played with the keyboard, some of them can use a joystick , in this case you have to set up a joystick mapper to create an amstrad cpc profile with numpad mapped for directions : numpad8 for up , numpad2 for down , numpad4 for left , numpad6 for right , and numpad5 for fire. The best way will be to create a default profile for common games , and different profiles for others that don't use joystick.

here is my "default" amstrad cpc profile for xpadder :

Awesome work.

This is the holy grail of logo makers, and it works perfectly

No more white text on any wheels.

Thanks a lot for all the work you share in the community.
