Seriously Impressed

I've been looking through the MAME source for games that were previously using the artwork system to dynamically update non-screen elements. I started off doing Turbo (as mentioned previously) and Discs of Tron, which a number of people have been asking about. There were a couple of glitches in the new system which showed up when I did the Discs of Tron artwork, so you will need to wait for u10 to actually use the layout file linked above and have it all working.

Then I moved on to Golly Ghost. Wow. Color me seriously impressed with the folks who put this one together. The quality of the artwork is very nice and it all works very well with the game graphics overlaid. And now that the artwork scales to your screen resolution (assuming you are using Direct3D), it looks absolutely amazing. Check it out!

I'm hoping to get a few more games updated, specifically Gorf, Spy Hunter, and Sky Diver, before I put out the next release.
