Installing overlays

edmaul69

@g0nz0uk nothing really to show a pic of. It is the same lcd filter as all the others, difference is that its fullscreen but the filters only go to the edge of that systems screen so you dont get a "grey" color on the black borders on the sides. Looks better that way. I did make a full 1080p lcd pic for people who stretch their image and a 480p image for people playing on non wide lcd screens as well. I didnt add art on the sides because there isnt much of the console to look at on the sides when its fullscreen. But if you dont want small lcd screens in the middle of the screen this is the way to go.

@Floob how do i get you a zip file. I have it ready. It starts at the /users/ folder. Is there a different starting folder you want it at? Also how do i get this zip to you or how do you post a zip here?

Sorry, I think this site might be more suitable.

I'm not sure what you mean by "you dont get a "grey" color on the black borders on the sides." Can you show using a screenshot?

Can you also describe your settings - is the goal to include a black border on the sides of the lcd filter?

@Floob i will look into file dropper when i wake up. So about the grey, when you have a scanline overlay you dont see the scanlines on the black borders on the side. However on an lcd overlay you do. So to fix that i made overlays set to the exact screen sizes of the lcd emulators where the overlays have transparency on the sides and the lcd filter only displaying where the actual game image is displayed. I will try to take pics tomorrow and show you.

@Floob so this an issue with everyones lcd over lays. if you look at this image you will see pure black and the greyish black the lcd filters produce. i have different overlays for different systems that have transparent sides so the greyish black isnt seen in the borders.

however i will include the lcd overlay that covers the entire screen. some people might prefer it that way. i actually am including a 720p and a 480p one as well in this zip for guys with older lcd tvs and lcd monitors.

@Floob here is the zip. i included 3 lcd full overlays for 1080p, 720p and 480p. i also included a 4x and 5x vertical scanlines for people to use on rom specific configs to use on vertical games but on a normal horizontal tv. i did not make configs for those because i dont know the correct way to for your video manager.

You need to include a ratio index

aspect_ratio_index = "22"
