      pscotto1234

      @busywait said in thebezelproject script doesn’t work:

      @pscotto1234 I don't know, I used 'rm' from the command line, and ended up just downloading the few bezels I wanted "by hand" from the bezel project github and other places mentioned in this forum.

      However, this got very tedious, so if you don't need the GB of space, just leave it there? The problem for me was that my card got totally filled and things like updates started to fail in way that I didn't notice :(

      I think to do this:

      from terminal ls > system_name.txt in each system folder to obtain a file containing roms name; rename the listed file extension in .png ; from terminal ls > system_image.txt in each bezel folder to obtain image list; compare files for the same system to mantain only image name for roms not present in my collection; with command cat system_name.txt | xargs rm I can remove not useful image;

      I hope you understand my method :)

      You can see a configuration example here for Atari 2600; all games for that system will use the same overlay.

      "I just had to keep moving it around till I got it right. Once I got it right, I locked in the numbers in the config file."

      @jamrom2 Do you mean for Video Pinball? If so, what are your config-file numbers?

      Got it working, if anyone else is interested in using this bezel pack, I combined the bezel and crt overlays for each game into one image using gimp, exported that as mslug.png and then I made a .cfg file and named that mslug.cfg . Put both files in the opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/overlays folder. Make sure you name both the .png and .cfg files the same for each game.

      My cfg file looks like

      overlays = 1

      overlay0_overlay = mslug.png

      overlay0_full_screen = true

      overlay0_descs = 0

      From what I've seen, for individual game, the Bezel Project uses the RetroArch's configuration override feature, by creating an overlay config in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/<core_name>/<game_name>.cfg (see an example here).
      It doesn't overwrite RetroPie's ROM folder configuration (/opt/retropie/config/arcade/retroarch.cfg) or any of the .cfg file in the ROM folders.
      So, referring to the 2 configuration examples above, I don't think they'll be impacted. Anyway, take a backup before adding the bezels, just to be safe. Make sure you have enough free space, since the they take quite some space (just the MAME bezels take more than 1Gb).

      If the emulator itself doesn't implement bezels, then there's not much that can be done to externally overlay an image, since most emulators need exclusive/fullscreen access to the video output.

      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.

      @dizzle151 said in Help with bezel overlays not showing for GBC emulator, but working for NES and GB?!:

      Sorry if this is answered somewhere else but I search and couldn't find anything.

      I recently added overlays to my retropie emulators and have had perfect luck with NES and GB, however, my GBC emulator(s) will not show the bezels even though I can select them fine. I have tried all three GBC emulators with the same issue. All overlay files are stored in the correct folder.... Super confused as to why they'd work flawlessly with two emulators and not the third.

      Please help! I am not overly technical, but have had no issues until this point. Thanks in advance!

      Control in bezelname.cfg if the name contain "-" delete and rename Image name without "-"
      Ex. Super-nintendo, Image file must Be "supernintendo" it work for me.

      Every thing must end one day. Today is the end. Here are my 3 last overlays. Do not worry, it's just before holydays. I will come back at the end of august or beginning of september. Perhaps, if I have time, I will release one or two small things during this month to keep you awake. But do not expect too much.

      Today, I give you three overlays for three classics. Some are more famous than other, but they are all a part of my gaming history. Let's go :

      Mappy (Namco):
      Mappy 1080p overlay

      Popeye (Nintendo):
      Popeye 1080p Overlay

      And of course "The Classic" Mario Bros (Nintendo):
      Mario Bros 1080p overlay

      As everytime, all this stuff is available here, in my reporistory or in the @meleu rpie-art script.

      Now I will relax a little bit and prepare the next season. I wish happy holydays to every one and hope to see you again in a little bit more than a month.

      @corbidorbi said in Need help making GB screen smaller:

      Of course that's buried in a bazillion other lines in the .CFG.

      That's because you enabled 'Config Save on Exit' and all the configurations have been dumped in this file. You shouldn't do that, core options are saved by default (in a separate file) and for other options you use 'Save Core Override'.

      Replace the retroarch.cfg file contents you have now in the gb folder with

      input_remapping_directory = "/opt/retropie/configs/gb/" #include "/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg"

      After that, start a game and use the RGUI to change the Video Settings, but use the Save Core Override option this time. Re-start the game and see if the changes persist.

      Hint: you don't need to download the file from the RetroPie system, just use Samba Share from your Finder to open the \\retropie\configs\gb folder and edit the file directly.
