      @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.

            @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.

                                            @UDb23 I see this thread hasn't been posted in for a few months. Are you using a different thread when discussing Overlays?

                                            I've been adding overlays and noticed mspacman.cfg had an incorrect name to the png.

                                            Also simbz23 had a few errors I think it was dkong3 and dkongjr. They had -edit in the .cfg file or the png name. They were both part of the Donkey Kong ROMS but I believe it was those two.
