@DTEAM
Thanks! Those links are really helpful. I'll add that to the list.
Great project you have there!

@sleve_mcdichael hello, I appreciate your help, I uploaded the files you requested here:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1w5Q1e88_zQtoAH_Et1ACRX61zJqStqWi?usp=sharing

Update: Okay, not sure what reverted, but I just did a full system update this morning (usual routine every couple weeks) and the SNES bezels are fitting again.

@liquidhamilton
I like the idea. I've used images at the launch dialog screen, but your idea is sweet!

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

You can do that, but you'll need to script it using from the onstart runcommand script.

New release: v3.0

New feature: generates overlays directly from images.

bezel-tools generate --images samples/images --roms-configs samples/roms --template-overlay templates/overlay.cfg --template-rom templates/game.cfg

I'm done with what I want to do with this tool right now (for my own personal use) and I'll move on to other projects.

Feel free to open an issue if you find a bug, or if you want another feature.

I want to generate "complete" overlays from MAME layouts (with background layers, etc) but it can get pretty complicated pretty fast, and I don't need it personally right now, but if people want it, I can take some time to do it. I'm open to pull requests, and I welcome forks.

I think it would be a great idea. If it's not possible to implement it, could it be done using the theme system? 🤔

@iggy said in Overlay scale setting messed up:

Load a game and then enter the retroarch s

Hey iggy, hust thank you so so so much, you explained everything so well and it works grate :D

Thanks :D

I'm going to assume you're using lr-gambatte as your GB emulator.

Start a GB game. Open the RGUI by using the hotkey combo you have setup (by default: Select + X) Scroll down to Options and press A. Scroll down to GB Colorization Press left or right to cycle through the options from Custom to OFF. Press B to exit to the Quick Menu. Scroll to the top to Resume. Press A on Resume to resume the game.

The green overlay is now gone. Feel free to try out the different colour modes and see how they look.

@etheling excellent work. Looks really slick on the side-bars there.

@Clyde That would be awesome. I've written a script that will take a folder of videos and, using FFmpeg, overlay images on top of them like scan lines and a bezel and spit out a new video. It would be so nice to be able to do this as an image instead like retroarch does.

@GreenHawk84 try Gimp. Free, updated often and works just the same.

@mitu said in How to change default Vectrex overlay directory:

\retropie\configs\all\retr

Oh, that's great. I didn't know that was the correct path for Vectrex overlays. Thanks!!!

@roslof
Did that, but nothing changed.
I have no idea where else to look.
Talk about frustrating.
