New NES overlays
-
@meleu My NES overlays so far are created for lr-FCEUmm resolution and so is the Mega Man 6 one. Should therefore fit your needs. The "overscan"setting issue does not impact actual overlay resolution as far as I know.
Going to optimize text and make Boss images transparent this evening ;-)

@meleu Was able to slightly increase font size; from 10 to 11.
Images and text realigned for better readability.
All Bosses with transparent background now.

@UDb23 Wow! This is awesome!
This might make @meleu sad but I never got into Mega Man on the NES. I remember renting one of the games but I just didn't like it. Now I have a reason to give them another chance!
A good friend of my back from my college days wrote a program in BASIC that can generate passwords for just about every Mega Man game from NES, GB and SNES. Here's the site but the download link doesn't work anymore:

Here's a screenshot:
And the launching art is so beautiful that I almost cried when I saw it! Huuuuuge thank you!!

Do you plan making for the others?
LOL
How could I leave you without ?Even more if you ask like
-
Glad you like it !
Even if I knew the name, I never played Mega Man series games before discovering Retropie. With all the knowledge I now have about Bosses & weaknesses, I got to try these games !!
Will start looking at the other titles soon; hoping they don't have so many Bosses ;-)

If you let me choose the next, I'd say Mega Man 3. :-)

@meleu said in New NES overlays:
Mega Man 3
8 Robot masters and 17 Bosses !! They would not fit all...
Would just bosses be ok ? -
8 Robot masters and 17 Bosses !! They would not fit all...
Oh yeah, you're right. In Mega Man 3 we have to defeat the "spirit" of the Mega Man 2 bosses in other robots (or maybe the software in another hardware)... Well, OK. Only the robot masters would be nice too. :-) Thanks man!
-
@meleu : Mega Man 3 ready !
-
@UDb23 awesome!
Just realized that, since you're using original boxart, making a cool image with the original Mega Man boxart can be challenging. :-)

@meleu
I found these; USA and European as original box art.
Not having any specific NES knowledge I can't say what was the actual original.
They could be used as launching image and or Scraping image.
What was your idea ? -
The original box art looks like a child's contest submission. Although, the shading on the upper lip must have taken them hours.

Ok. You mean next overlay should be the first MEGA MAN ...
quite terrible drawing that box art... maybe they had not enough money to pay developers AND a serious artist :-) -

Your overlay for Mega Man 3 is perfect! When I said "original Mega Man boxart" I meant "Mega Man 1", the first Mega Man game for NES.
That awful boxart on my previous post is the USA version of Mega Man 1 boxart.
In the actual original (japanese version) it looks better:

@meleu @mediamogul
check this about the Mega Man 1 box art. ;-) -
@UDb23 LOL
note: I've originally posted a wrong image on my previous post. Fixed with the correct image (Rockman).
