Top requested arcade games for overlays

quicksilver

@UDb23 so I updated and downloaded it again but the problem persists. I checked and video mode is set to 1080p. Do I need to delete the old one before downloading the new one?

UDb23

@quicksilver no reason to delete. But just to be sure try deleting. Still same problem of game area covered?
Are the other overlays working ?

quicksilver

@UDb23 every other one I have tested has worked fine. It's just this one (so far) that I noticed didn't work right. When I'm next by my pi I will remove the overlay and replace and see if that helps and report back.

Edit: deleting the zip.cfg and then reinstalling took care of the issue

UDb23

@quicksilver glad it solved. I just reinstalled on my Pi and it worked fine.

First off wonderful job on these overlays! Definitely the best that there is available!

Could we get Act-fancer added to the queue of overlays to be added?
Thanks!

Thanks.

Could we get Act-fancer added

There's not much artwork I could find for this "Giger/Alien like" shmup: just the JP flyer and an australian marquee. Do you have any additional ?

Ronoh55

@UDb23 I found the flyer and Marquee that you did and then an instructional poster and a 4k overlay that someone else made

@Ronoh55 The instructions are the back of the flyer. The overlay is freely based on the marque art.
Anyway, let me give it a try; you'll get a Retropie overlay.

New overlay: Gorf

Next step is making the right side work with lamps (specific rank gets illuminated) using Mame artwork's features of mame2003plus.

Forgot to update the thread: Gorf with lamps is working !

Can't miss as a classic.

@UDb23 is it still possible to request 5:4 1280x1024 overlays from you?
Yours is of absolute stellar quality, and for some reason I can't get other than yours to work properly.

UDb23

@AndersHP It is always nice to know they are appreciated. :-)

Concerning 1280x1024, any specific request ? Have you checked these ?

GreenHawk84

Battletoads please? I know there are hi-res art files out there.

Riverstorm

@GreenHawk84 - You can use any of those you find without issues. I found a few for Battletoads @ 1920x1080 that I've been using for quite a while now. These are just snaps as the originals with transparencies are to big but the all omniscient Google easily reveals all.

GreenHawk84

@Riverstorm I do have one that is from the Rare Replay on Xbox Live, but do you know if these are original bezel arcade art files or are they new gen? I was looking at the old arcade cabinet art and I really like the old art.

Riverstorm

@GreenHawk84 - Good point, I'm not sure if they are from the original cabinet. I just found them online while I was searching for overlays that aren't in the repo. If I come across any that are 1920 x 1080 then I make the .cfg files to work with RA.
