@mitu Indeed. You were right all along. I really appreciate you helping me track that down. Its been a long time since I have messed with my RP and I had become more unfamiliar with everything than I was when I was more into it. ;)

@Norstein We don't support 3rd party images and links to ROMs/BIOS/copyrighted material is not allowed. Install the image from retropie.org.uk/download and configure your overlays there.

It depends on how you're trying to set up the bezels. You can, in theory, put the .cfg anywhere and then point to it for each game. Or create an individual .cfg for each game. So it really depends on what you're trying to accomplish and how you are going to accomplish it. I started messing around with individual bezels for arcade (and other) games, but then I stumbled across the Bezel Project. They have a preconfigured set of bezels for literally thousands of games (I count over 7000 games). You can also install bezels for individual systems. The only annoyance is that the roms need to be named according to the No-Intro naming convention, however this only affects console roms. Arcade roms are supported by their standard rom names. You can see a video on The Bezel Project here: You can get The Bezel Project script here: https://github.com/thebezelproject/BezelProject Once you're installed reboot and you can install bezels for individual systems through the Retropie Configurations in the standard menu.

Wonderful work! I used a couple of these in place of my current overlays! I have a request that might be easy for you. There doesn't seem to be a great Vertical Lynx overlay. Any way you could make one since you already have the source material for lynx? Thanks!

Take a look at the Configuration hierarchy. You can have the overlays per-system if you add them to the system's retroarch.cfg file. For individual games, you can use the game override in RetroArch to set the overlays.

@nono6493 no words to thank brother! perfect work!

@bigcache I thought in CMD is would be simple as move *.zip.cfg *.cfg

FIXED: Change 'common.cfg' aspect ratio index to 23.

@UDb23 I appreciate your help. I have never played this game before I saw your overlay. But something about using your overlays makes me feel like I'm a kid at the arcade again :D

Problem is I don't think that works with my overlay as I've set a custom viewport size and location so that would also have to be flipped

Thanks Mitu for link, seems they have MOVED custom setting number from 22 to 23. Well know one of the tasks I will need to do over Christmas holidays, cfg file updates :/

@mbrett Do you have a screenshot to show the problem ? Have you tried toggling 'Integer scaling' on/off to see if it makes a difference ?

@zfa said in Retropie Bezel Project & lr-mame2003 cfg does not persist after update?: I guess the real fix is to get The Bezel Project guys to use the names as per the Retroarch guys, or make sure they include symlinks where there are name changes across versions of a core. If this doesn't work then update your emus again in case you have a version reporting itself as being mame2003 as per @Virtualman post. This name change/folder change came from RetroArch leadership rather than the mame2003 core. The code logic for this is kind of obscure but it has to do with enabling netplay between a broader range of different systems. Based on the RA rationale for making the change I expect it will be permanent.

Beautiful graphics! Thanks!

@caver01 Yeah in my reference pic here, it's supposed to look like this: That's U.N. Squadron / Area 88 on SNES. The Widescreen overlay is supposed to have pillarbox like what is shown in the pic. It uses the same video settings as the other CRT's. 960 x 720

hey @dask, i spent a little time with this and managed to figure out a few things.. expanding on your idea of using the overlay/bezel system, it's possible to (using a hotkey combo) swap a transparent overlay with a control image overlay. this can be done on a per-system basis using the retroarch.cfg files located in /opt/retropie/configs/<system> retroarch.cfg: overlay_directory = "/your/path/to/overlays" input_overlay_enable = true input_overlay_hide_in_menu = true input_overlay = "/your/path/to/overlays/mame-controls.cfg" input_overlay_opacity = 0.9 input_overlay_scale = 1.0 input_overlay_next_btn = "6" i think you can substitute the last line with input_overlay_next = "<keyboard key>" and input_overlay_next_axis = "<joystick axis>" to adapt this to your hardware scheme. next, create the two images needed: transparent.png, and mame-controls.png and here are the contents of mame-controls.cfg: overlays = 2 overlay0_overlay = transparent.png overlay1_overlay = mame-controls.png overlay1_name = "mame-controls" overlay0_full_screen = true overlay1_full_screen = true overlay0_descs = 1 overlay0_desc0 = "overlay_next,400,460,rect,40,20" overlay0_desc0_next_target = "mame-controls" overlay1_descs = 0 there probably already exists a much better way of doing it, so this is just a proof of concept. either way, hope it's enough to help you get started.
