Arcade overlays 4:3, 1600x1200

Mayki

Thanks in advance to AndrewH and UDb23 users for creating great bezels, I've just rewrote them to the resolution of my Arcade Cabinet 1600x1200.

Thank you for these! I was just starting to look for overlays for vertical games only, as the 4:3 screen of the new Picade nicely fulfills with horizontal games.

@Mayki I can't thank you enough for this, as my upright cabinet's monitor is 1600x1200. 👍

If you also have some bezels, it would be good to place them here.

Clyde

@Mayki I will, but currently I don't have any bezels that can't be found in this forum, let alone 1600x1200 ones. That's why I am so happy about yours. 😊

Hi @Mayki , I've just taken the liberty of creating a Github repo with all these overlays, as I see this as a more reliable and flexible way to share them. You can find it at https://github.com/svera/vertical-bezels-4-3.

Also, I've created 1024x768 versions (good for Picade v2). If anyone wants to contribute more, just open a pull request with your files and I will gladly merge them.

Mayki

Good work... 👍

svera

Added a couple more of bezels for Arkanoid and Firetrap to the Github repository.

Clyde

@svera I can't describe sufficiently how much I'm happy that there's finally a hi-res 4:3 repo. 😄

Chef Otis

anyone happen to have a 4:3 of space invaders lying around? or maybe even the strikers 1945 trilogy?

DLuxPNW

Is there a current download link for this still available. Any help is appreciated, these look great!

svera

@DLuxPNW check out https://github.com/svera/vertical-bezels-4-3

Chef Otis

nice svera! thanks for that. anymore floating out there?

svera

I've added some more overlays to the repo:

1941 (replaced old one with a new design)
Varth
Moon Cresta
Terra Cresta
Space Invaders '95

Clyde

@svera Thanks for your ongoing effort. I want to try some overlays for your repo myself. I already have a Github account, so I can can do pull requests.

However, I have next to zero experience with image editing, so I'll have to teach myself some simple GIMP skills first.

Are you planning to do more overlays soon that you can tell me beforehand, lest we don't overlap? The chances are slim, but Murphy lurks around the corner … 😉

svera

@Clyde in fact I was working on a better overlay for Bomb Jack, and maybe trying Scramble, apart from that I have no others in mind. If you are interested, I could upload a PSD template to the repo so you or others could have a base to start with.

Clyde

@svera Thanks for the offer, but I'm using GIMP and while it can open PSD files, their support is limited (mainly for layers and masks, see here for details). So far, I'm planning to use the existing overlay PNG files as templates. Or can you save your template it in a format that's more universal?

That said, sharing your PSD for others is a good idea in general, whether I can use it or not. 👍

svera

@Clyde well, the template is basically a mask and two frames for the drop shadow effect, nothing fancy, so I guess it can be helpful, wether is being used in Photoshop or Gimp. I'll upload it later.

wonderful job! :)

Okay, I'll try to make an Amidar overlay for a start. It seems easy enough. 😏
