      Folly

      @jimmyfromthebay

      Due to this thread I found that there was a mistake in my script and I fixed it.
      So now it can create lr-mess overlays for gnw from the mame artwork.
      2022-03-02-183543_800x600_scrot_resized.png
      I think it's not what you are looking for, though.
      It is still an overlay and transparency is always used and not perfect.

      I have tried the combination lr-mess with mame artwork but never had any result,
      because then the game just won't load.

      Perhaps you both can find a way.
      It would really be nice if it could work like you want to.

      @sleve_mcdichael @mitu @YFZdude Thank you guys for all your kindly help, check this out:

      I don't have a skyscraper folder inside /opt/retropie/supplementary/skyscraper folder:

      pi@retropie:/opt/retropie/supplementary/skyscraper $ ls -l total 3688 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 849 Dec 14 01:27 aliasMap.csv -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 881 Dec 14 01:27 artwork.xml -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2561 Dec 14 01:27 artwork.xml.example1 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 292 Dec 14 01:27 artwork.xml.example2 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 668 Dec 14 01:27 artwork.xml.example3 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 498 Dec 14 01:27 artwork.xml.example4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4911 Dec 14 01:27 config.ini.example -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5329 Dec 14 01:27 hints.txt drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 14 01:27 import -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 35141 Dec 14 01:27 LICENSE -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2005590 Dec 14 01:27 mameMap.csv -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3037 Dec 14 01:27 priorities.xml.example -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 16702 Dec 14 01:27 README.md drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 14 01:27 resources -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 279 Jan 15 16:08 retropie.pkg -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1121724 Dec 14 01:27 Skyscraper -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 342796 Dec 14 01:27 tgdb_developers.json -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 187547 Dec 14 01:27 tgdb_publishers.json pi@retropie:/opt/retropie/supplementary/skyscraper $

      Thats a little weird, but then I saw the las post from @sleve_mcdichael about execute the command with "./" and worked like a charm:

      @sleve_mcdichael Thank you. It makes so much sense. I tried purging the esgamelist cache and then re-generated the artwork with Skyscraper. Worked like a charm. I took some inspiration from your settings and applied them myself too.

      Finally, a big thank you for taking the time to explain the differences between marquee and wheel. I went close to bananas trying to understand the definitions.

      @h2805270 Wow, thanks for the B/W versions. Nice. I do like the rearrangement on the "Adventures" logo. And also thanks for appreciating my short writeup on the logo editing.

      FWIW these are the fonts used (grepped from the accompanied README.txt in the initial post):

      Font: Acknowledgement (SIL Open Font License v1.10)
      Font: Amira Light, https://www.ffonts.net/Amira-Light.font
      Font: BPdots Unicase Square by George Triantafyllakos
      Font: FV Almelo (free personal)
      Font: Nexa Rust Sans Black (free personal)
      Font: Mallica Fairytale Demo (free for personal use only)
      Font: Master of Break (free for personal use only)
      Font: Nexa Rust Sans Black (free personal & commercial)

      If someone needs the text as text logo versions (and before converted to path objects for final display) pls shout. Note that in some logos I did change the font-path afterwards.

      @chicuelo Thank you! Your Dark the is brilliant by the way, thanks so much for making it available for us all! I made one tiny change - swapped the Amiga character art for one I made by editing the box art for Putty (I used to love that game!):

      Thanks again, and I look forward to seeing whatever you might do next! 😊

      @mitu
      Yes all over covers are great it's very unusual.

      It doesn't matter its only just the one cover it was 2 previously the other one seemed to get fixed by deleting the entry in gamelist and making it again but same thing not working with this one.

      It shows correct in a different gamelist view which is strange.
      Thanks
      Sim
      PS similar behaviour happens when I goto add a game to favourites I see the artwork squashed but it goes back to normal straight after

      Besides posting them here, I guess for bezels you can try creating a repository similar to @UDb23's one and submit it to @meleu's rpie-art.sh script so it can be installed by users (see https://github.com/meleu/rpie-art).
      For boxart, maybe adding them to a scraping site directly (i.e. ScreenScraper.fr or MobyGames) in addition to posting them here.

      If you want to use forum, create a topic for your artwork (or 2 for each type of artworks) and update them periodically in case you add new stuff.

      @brigane Can you suggest any other people who do similar style widescreen bezels? Just want to make sure I haven't missed any.

      Fixed it, I simply updated lr-mame2003 in retropie setup.

      Many thanks for your help.
