GALAGA layout for M.A.M.E (Namco 1981)
Today I offer you an amazing layout for the famous "Galaga".
This time I had to modify the border of the control panel to build a vertical instruction box using vector graphics (with Inkscape, what a wonderful tool).
The side art is also in vector graphics (I'm not the author) so I can have all high resolutions I need. Ask me if you need this side art in very very very high resolution, i'll give you the file.
So... let's shoot some bugs !
Features :
- Full UHD horizontal TV support (3840x2160)
- Based on original upright arcade Bally Midway's cabinet.
- On screen marquee, side art and instructions.
- Full game zone's proportions respect (7:9)
- World record from TwinGalaxies displayed

- M.A.M.E layout version 2 (tested on 0.218 version)

Installation instructions for newbies :
- Ensure you're using mame layout version 2. Verify it by editing another « default.lay » from the zip file of one of your working layout to be sure.
- Replace (or add) the « galaga.zip » file in your « /Mame/artwork/ » folder.
- Start M.A.M.E then launch the game
- Press the « Tab » key and go to « video » section
- Chose « NOIR Homeplaying FullHD » configuration and ensure « bezel » is enabled. (chose the "WR" version for displaying the world record)
- Exit the M.A.M.E configuration menu
- Enjoy !
Notes :
This Layout is designed for homeplaying on very large screens but should fit perfectly on modern TV, HD and UHD (4K).
You can chose between 2 Layouts, one with the world record and one without it.
I tested the layouts on M.A.M.E 0.218.
Mod it and convert it as you like (but don't claim it, please) ! I hope you'll enjoy it.
