You can still do it without the shader integration, I’ll have a go if you want (few weeks time though I’m mega busy atm)

It is very unlikely that the kind of animation (Linked to hardware) that MAME has, will ever be in the shader. Right now the MAME layout system in RA doesn’t even support it, so this is not something that HSM could take advantage of.

If it is ever brought to the layout system then who knows?

yeah he said this already back than , also ther had to be many changes in retroarch itself for it , but he and i where talking just about an animated image , and if the shader could detect controls on the fly ingame …so this would not need any mame features for a simple wheel rotation :sweat_smile:

or letting the beatmania lights switch colors hues on button presses with an led layer …this where my ideas and will also work with fbneo what i nowadays prefer

It wouldn’t even be a rotation tbh m8

True, but with the overhead I think the resources might be better used with a more expansive feature.

We have nothing but time though, who knows what will happen? :grin:

With limitations of the systems does come imagination.

I have to agree… I don’t need the controls… but that’s just me. For every person that doesn’t there will be somebody that wants them. I do think it’s a cool idea though.

Yeah got no joy from @MrDo

My apologies for real life being so busy that I haven’t been able to do a proper artwork update in over two years. Next one is almost ready… but slightly delayed again.

And my apologies again, that I am not receiving email notifications for PMs on this site… just happened to pop over here today, and saw the PM from six days ago. [EDIT: there it is… in my spam folder… fixed now].

I have unanswered PMs here that I have sent to people that are many months old, who previously used to help me with a few things… but I don’t call them out publicly for not answering me… that’s the whole point of a PM… it’s a private message.

I do see the email you sent me back in May 2021… looks great… I’ll add it update after next.
