Hi , as an emulation lover , i wanted an easy way to play my Roms/iso (s) as easy and elegant as possible so i created a launcher that goes with all emulators available and also can take all shape and looks you want :

* - it supports custom parameters and extentions for full compatibility with all emulators .

* - you can customise :
- launcher position (X and Y)
- launcher height
- launcher width
- game icons height
- game icons width
- space between icons
- space on the left and/or right side for a better background view
- the background
- loading screen
- game title font and color

* - you must put your covers / icons in one of these paths :
1 - Rom directory\Rom.Ext.jpg
2 - Rom directory\Rom.Ext.bmp
3 - Rom directory\Rom.jpg
4 - Rom directory\Rom.bmp
5 - <SrcDir>\Net Sparro Launcher\icons\Rom.jpg
6 - <SrcDir>\Net Sparro Launcher\icons\Rom.bmp
7 - <SrcDir>\Net Sparro Launcher\icons\Rom.Ext.jpg
8 - <SrcDir>\Net Sparro Launcher\icons\Rom.Ext.bmp


9 - if no cover exists , the launcher will use "empty icon pic.jpg" , you can customise it to match the console being emulated ....

i guess it would be so nice if you post scrreen shots showing how does the launcher look like on your pc and what games ( Roms) you play
 
Well, i was looking for something since a long time, searched for many tools, something nice etc because I use a LOT of hack-roms (and sometimes not big edits, just personal ASM edits on some games)

So well, gonna see future updates to see if this can fit,

But nice work really !
 
The most beautifull toll i know is the wiiflow. But I belive is only to wii. If you can turn this to a 3d cover will be perfect.
 
I decided to test the launcher more thoroughly, i made my settings and changes and got to the result below, this is definitely a program that can go very far, I'll leave 4 suggestions for the next version.

1° Put the "power" icon in HD it is serrated in low definition
2° Add a button to open the emulator (Useful to configure the emulator before opening the games)
3° Add support for the covers In png format (I want to use images of boxes in png would keep the transparency of the background.
4° Add option to customize game names (Is currently displaying the names of the rpx)

Forgive the translator's mistakes :P

I customized it after a lot of trial and errors, just one last thing: When I click each icon, it opens the "raw" emu screen, not opening any game "automatically".

Also, at a certain time, just one emu could be launched here? e.g. I wanna then launch Citra on NSL. I should make a backup copy of not possible?

Very good friend, it looks beautiful. When clicking on the covers just open the emulator, then its parameters are wrong, Look at my parameters and extensions below.

%emu% -g %rom%

*.rpx,*.wud,*.wux

And to take the launcher to another emulator, you should get a new copy from scratch and add other parameters, each emulator has its own.

name suggestion due to the combination of parts combined to make this whole.

Gestalt Launcher
or
Netsparro-gestalt Launcher

Gestalt = a unified whole,
a perceptual pattern or structure possessing qualities as a whole that cannot be described merely as a sum of its parts.
