New NES overlays

[UDb23]

@meleu said in New NES overlays:

making a cool image with the original Mega Man boxart can be challenging. :-)

and here comes the overlay!!!

Used Japanese Box art... therefore used same style for the logo as original Rockman...but says Mega man ;-)

If anybody dares to ask for the US box art... they'll get a downvote from me :-))

@UDb23 Nicely done!!

Just a small request, if I'm not daring to much... Could you change the Roll image with a Mega Man one?

No, it's not a case of misogyny! I love girls! :-) It's because Roll just appeas very briefly during the ending of the game...

Maybe this image inspired in the original Rockman title screen:

Fun fact: in the original Japanese version, some names are music-related. For example, Dr. Light created Rock and Roll. :-)

update: also, Proto in Japanese version is Blues.

@meleu sure, I'll replace Roll ;-)

@UDb23 Overlay updated. Good thing with posting linked images is... that they update with no need to edit post.

Let me know if it's ok for you.

@UDb23 Looks great! I'll post a screenshot when I have time. Thanks!

@UDb23 The rom config file for Mega Man overlay sets video_scale_integer = "true" and it looks like this:

I commented the video_scale_integer line and it seems to look better:

Both screenshots with lr-fceumm.

@meleu scale integer should not be there (not for this game)
Delete or comment provides right layout as you already found out.
As previously said I should not "patch around" with overlay images late at night ;-)
Fixed.

@udb23 about 3 weeks ago I was trying to write a kind of "cheevos scraper" (discussion in this thread) but got distracted hunting cheevos for Mega Man 3 and 4. After beating Mega Man 4 i restarted the work on the cheevos-scraper. And now you throw this Mega Man 5 art here!!!

They look awesome! The launching art is so beautiful!

The temptation to dive into Mega Man 5 cheevos hunting is big, but I will try to finish the cheevos scraper first. I think I can release something in a week and then it will be @pjft turn to make it useful for EmulationStation. :-)

@UDb23 Thanks again for this artwork!!
