They’ll be out soon.
Okay great. Looking forward to using them.
Has anyone ever come across a 4k vertical golden tee or golden tee complete?
Hi @Briball, I’m a bit late to the party on this one, but I think I had taken a sabbatical by then, great to comb back and see little gems like this that I was unaware of! How did you get on with them in the end? Did you ever upload them? I have most of these on my vertical count but there’s no decent overlay except for the lovely ones that @ArsInvictus did way back! These 8bit computer overlays are wonderful - I had meant to do something similar but I was just going for life size renderings in an 80’s bedroom vibe with toys/vhs tapes in there (He-man, transformers, goodies etc) would love a link if you ever got these over the line for sharing
I have them somewhere and will look later, been on a break too, twitching to start again, but just have one thing after another in the way.
I know how that goes! It’s really hard to find the time, but as long as you’re enjoying it and doing it at your own pace, that’s all that matters, there’s no pressure! If these things are worth doing, they’re worth doing right as I know like me, you’ll get a lot of use out of it and it’s more of a labour of love them trying to hit some kind of deadline! Hope life is treating you well, and if you want a hand finishing these off, I’d be happy to take one or two of you as I think they would be really lovely to have finished Some day.
Have a great weekend!
Just wanted to say thanks! It’s fun to find more overlays. Somehow I missed this thread. I especially like the console themes. Thank you!
All you guys are amazing! So much talent! Thank you!
I love this vertical console overlays!!! Any chance to have them for using with HSM Mega Bezel, @Briball?
The Mega Bezel was created for users, not just artists and creators.
Overlays are a simple single layer image. Using them as a background has been a Mega Bezel features since it’s inception.
With very little effort, and just a bit of patience, any user can convert an overlay to a Mega Bezel preset in minutes.
The second half of this posts. . .
. . .walks a user through doing just that. Any questions left unresolved can be asked and answered in that thread, the Mega Bezel thread, or my graphics thread.
Thank you for your reply @Duimon. What I meant, is I see posts from you and others like OrionsAngel, but the post is actually a .jpg, not a .png image, so there is no alpha channel (transparency). Am I right?
I answered in the other thread but it bears repeating here. The images posted are just screenshots to show the work. They aren’t meant to be used by downloading the posted image, but downloaded in the original PNG form, usually via a link.
That being said, depending on the use case, the Mega Bezel can use JPGs as well as PNGs.
Hi K, thanks, those console things were some concepts i was playing with and sorry to say I have been out of the scene for quite some time, just keeping my ear to the ground. If you can find someone to take it further and get it working, i can link you my work files photoshop files and you can post what you have done here.
have fun.
Thanks @Briball. I’m not the right person for it. I have no skills in graphic design. I just love old games and hardware. I do have some skill though . Look at my webapge of repurposing a Commodore 64 case. Here is the link you want to check it out: Pimmodore 64
great, I had a C64 and a speccy nback in the day. So that is cool.
Anyway the psd files have all you need to strip out the monitors on those and resave it as png. i would do it but my PC at home has given up the ghost and i haven’t gotten round to replacing it. I might find some time soonish at work.
I like what you have been doing with Ars on getting the megabezels to work. saw some of my old bezels going past makes a big difference with megabezelshader. good work.
Yeah, I have that killer pair too!! I use them a lot!!
Thanks! The MegaBezel really gives a new life to overlays. Little tricky with some of them, but is worth it.
To be honest, I don’t even have Photoshop, maybe I can use some free app for basic things like you say. Anyway my first goal is to finish arcade overlays, so there is plenty of time.
I´ve managed to open a psd thanks to this site!!! The C64 looks awesome!!!
I think if you could cut the red part, I can replace it with the Megabezel, trying to match the frame color. Or, you could cut following the blue line (but leaving the thin frame at the outer edge), and I can replace it with a megabezel including frame generation.
I haven’t opened the rest of the psd, but the idea would be the same.
Regards!!
I can make the time to get this done. If that is OK.
I wanted to use these with the Mega Bezel in my future Vertical setup.
Hi Duimon, go crazy, take my files and have fun. These were just some ideas and wished i could take it further myself. but I’m happy for you or anybody to take it further!!
I really like these. Can you do a pal snes and mega drive one and possibly an Amiga?
