      Have this Generic Overlay for the N64 I would like to use. But have no idea how to write a config file for it since it is not retroarch emulator. http://www.screenzone.fr/downloads/bezels/illusion/Nintendo_64/Bezel.png If anyone can help me with the Config code I would greatly appreciate it. Could we just cut the config code from your generic atari2600-ovl and put it at the end of the mupen config? Thanks for looking in to this.

        I found this link it maybe helpful to someone https://github.com/nosh01/retroarch-overlays . They post a bezel like the 1920x1080 that I have except his is for 4k. I modified the .cfg file to reflect my file name and the right overlay. I put that file in the same folder as the other bezels that I have. the coding looks the same as the atari2600 code. But then I realize their is no LR config file so even though the files are there it does not know what to do with them even though this mupen64 is there somewhere I can code the retroarch .cfg for the n64 to know where to set the bezel up?

          @rridenour said in Have Generic overlay for n64.:

          your generic atari2600-ovl

          Whe you say "your" are you referring to the generic atari overlay in the rpie-ovl repository ?

          If you're using mupen64plus-libretro or lr-GLupeN64 you can use core RetroArch configurations including Bezels; unfortunately actual Mupen64plus does better with performance. Check here for location of N64 retroarch.cfg files.

          Yes the lines to add to the cfg are similar to those for atari, adapted to N64.
          What must also be checked is if the game area size and position in the bezel you want to use matches exactly the game area of the specific N64 emulator core you're using.

            Yes I am referring to the one in the rpie-overlay repository. Unfortunately in the packages the only lr-n64 I see listed is lr-parrallel and it does not perform well. So I am using it with the regular mupen64 with the glide plugin emulator. Is there a way to manipulate these files to show the overlay?

              I'm not aware of mupen64 supporting bezels. If you have different info I could give it a try.
