      @greenhawk84 I have seen that one before making my own; as you said the instruction sheet does not fit. Also the boxes around the turtles, not in line with original art.

      Yes. I recreated the "portal" fully (inkscape: spiral tool + blurring and gradient in the background).

        @UDb23 for the vertical bezels that are being made here, they cannot be used with a shader correct? At least with a shader that works properly? I ask because when I enabled the crt.pi shader I got the rainbow colors that @dankcushions has worked to get rid of by changing/adjustments.

        Also, will crt.pi work with integer scale enabled as some of the bezels require?

          I'm not using shaders (personal taste) but months ago I tested it and I can't remember specific issues. There is a specific crt-pi-vertical shader; scale integer should be ON.
          Details in this post.

            @udb23 thanks yes I have followed that thread for a long time, I was just curious because I think in order to use that shader properly you could not use these vertical bezels at the same time. The game image stretches horizontally beyond borders.

                I went ahead and took a stab at TMNT2.

                  @greenhawk84 Nice. Turtles fans now have quite of a choice.

                      Anyone know how to get these to work with the scanlines and everything, they seem to be popular on PC-Mame (I think Pi3 would choke though):

                        @udb23 Love your work and this thread. I want to start making some overlays myself. For 1080p overlays is there any base template you use?

                          @mrjordaaany With lr-mame and lr-fba most games have the same specific standard game area resolution @ 1080p. Of course it also depends if you want the game area to stretch to the 1080 height or "integer scale" the original game resolution.
                          What program would you use ?
                          I use basic templates for horizontal and vertical games in made, in SVG format.

                            Anyone want to try out Final Fight (preferably with integer scaling to fit more art)?

                              @greenhawk84 nice overlay!
                              Unfortunately no time this week to test on Pi.

                                @udb23 No this is a scan of the original that would fit in an original cabinet. This would not work with a Pi. I would use this for sampling and creating a 16:9 bezel.

                                  @udb23 I use whatever I need to use. GIMP, photoshop, paint.net, etc. I would really appreciate if you can share the templates with me :)

                                            Templates now available here as vector (svg) and bitmap (png) for libretro @1080p, standard options, scale integer off (lr-mame2003, lr-fba).
                                            PNGs include transparent game area. Side bars in solid color so they are easy to select and replace. Small borders included.
