4K Vertical Overlay Community Contributions

The top looks good but I think the bottom could still be toned down some more to better match the CPO brightness. Thanks for working on these btw! I’m glad someone wants to help finish this set out

Hi guys, been meaning to share a few overlays I built, this one is Konami’s Salamander (also Life Force) which was in the Goliath Electocoin cabs, I have a CP version of this as well as a Life Force variant which I will post in the next few days should anyone want it (this post will kick my arse to get it done!) - the Bezel is made from scratch to emulate the ‘glitter’ effect the originals had.

Salamader / LifeForce (Konami 1986)

1042565891 (1) 1091020473

I loved this game in the arcade and on the ZX spectrum too, never got very far but enjoyed it kicking my arse! Its a classic scrolling shooter by Konami. Released in 1986 as a spin-off of Gradius, Salamander introduced a simplified power-up system, two-player cooperative gameplay and both horizontally and vertically scrolling stages. Loved having this on my cab recently and needed to do a long overdue overlay, based on the Konami Electrocoin Goliath cab presentation and I’ve done a Salamander and Lifeforce variant both with and without the CPO.

These use the usual 3D screen bezel, CPO, nuts bolts, and random cab pieces I created a while back, Bezel is also a custom piece to re-create the glitter effect of the original (I have an Electrocoin generic Unigame overlay I need to share too) and the CPO is built from scratch l, I can’t attribute the source of the Marquee’s as I’ve had them for years on my drive.

Mame version with all 4 multiple views/PNGs is here MAME / PNG download

(Random still of the 3D CPO as I thought the texture looked nice in this one :sweat_smile:)

Absolutely posh overlays as always @PapaShine! Great to see your work here again! That Salamander with the CPO is a beauty. :star_struck:

Hey @darkand, I dropped these on my 2 vertical cabs today, they look great, my son loves the king of fighters series and I love the NeoGeo, the 3D CPO and 3D monitor bezel on these was a real labour of love for @ArsInvictus and I so these updates are very much appreciated :+1:

I was digging around my old project files and found this which was pretty close to completion, it’s a whole bunch of layered PSDs with buttons and various control sticks including their shadows in multiple locations, all with alphas and some lit textured surfaces for the CPO surface I was sorting for @ArsInvictus, @Briball, @Thoggo and anyone else that might have needed them. Its a few hours from completion but would anyone be interested in me finishing this up and supplying them here? I notice a lot of people have cut out what they need, but this would give accurate reflections and lighting across the whole CPO if needed.

Hell yes! Even though I haven’t been putting these together anymore, having this out there for others to leverage will make people more likely to take on the CPO portion of the overlay and raise the overall quality of anything people contribute for the rest of all time :star_struck:

Yeah! This would be awesome!

If it is not much extra work, what do you think about adding an extra render which is a lighting pass of just the screen and the objects with a white surface color?

Then I could possibly use this to light them from the dynamic game image in the Mega Bezel…

Great to hear from you @HyperspaceMadness, That sounds very cool! very much like some of the things we spoke about when I was last on this, would love to see some dynamic light falling across the control panel controlled by the game.- drop me a message and we can talk about what exactly that might look like, and do some tests.

I would love to add these to my library of assets. Very nice! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
