AI Overlays

AI

Image Generation tools have improved exponentially in recent years, and despite lingering issues like text, you can now generate many scenes to your particular taste. Hence, it can now be used to generate overlays!

So, share your best AI slop with us!

The image must be usable! This might include a 16:9 aspect ratio and a high enough resolution. If your image resolution is too low you can use a free upscaling tool like Upscayl. If you’re not sure, load it in Retroarch; if it works and looks good, you’re all set!

Optionally, you can include a Uborder preset so your image is directly usable as a shader, and the user does not need to configure anything.


Example…

Close-up front view of a CRT TV sitting on a desk. The TV is turned off. Game cases can be seen next to the TV. The room is reflected on the screen glass. Every corner of the room is visible from the reflection.

Great subject, it was already time for that.

I’ll contribute in the next days. I’m slowly working on some overlays.

Asked for shmup but we had shi-mup and Shm-Pup at home…

So, my first contributions, two ai overlays (with some small manual adjustments in GIMP to fit 4:3 perfectly):

04-Sonic-The-Hedgehog-USA-Europe-250314-092434 04-Sonic-The-Hedgehog-USA-Europe-250314-092412 04-Sonic-The-Hedgehog-USA-Europe-250314-092347

Both use koko-ambi, which means the overlays change shadows and colors dinamically.

The overlays + uborder presets: AI Overlays - Hyllian - 25-03-14

@bitman, feel free to add to your pack. I’m using the same folder, BTW.
