Bezel shader being a different color.

I assume you are asking why the PVM20 has a black Bezel and the TM20 has a bezel the same color as the Device layer?

Because that is how they were made.

PVM20…

TM20…

[hgoda90]

No, I mean

being different colors.

[Duimon]

Oh. That is just my personal preference. (Especially on the very dark bezels.) I wanted contrast between the components and the body.

There are a few that are dark, but only when the body of the console was very dark. (Like the 2600.)

[hgoda90]

That makes sense than I was just wondering, since there are so few that are this way.

[Duimon]

I have actually changed a few recently, while I was making adjustments for Mega Bezel updates. (Although I can’t remember offhand which ones.)

Here’s a WIP on the Mega Duck.

It is coming along really well!

For this and future handhelds I am creating off screen elements.

This will come in handy if someone wants to make it smaller for some reason, and for using in a portrait setup.

Thanks a lot!

Awesome!!! The future thanks you

Here’s the latest WIP before I retire for the evening.

I took some liberties with the bezel text size and placement to create more room for the screen. (It will be a tad bit larger than reality.)

Amazing work Duimon … again !

Do you plan to make a standard one for Game & Watch ?

[Duimon]

I don’t think it is either possible or desirable. There are too many variations in screen size. I also don’t think the real world display technology would benefit from the Mega bezel.

@Duimon while working on the TM20s I found a line with a missing " in Gamecube-[STD]-[Guest]-[TM20]. It is HSM_BZL_COLOR_VALUE, line 14.

[Duimon]

As is the case with most typos, it was the same in the ADV and Lite.

All is better now.

Thanks for the heads up.

I found another problem. TM20_03’s BackgroundImage is set to PVM_background_02.jpg

[Duimon]

Another great catch my friend.

Fixed and updated.

Here is tonight’s WIP.

I have the vents to do and some text. Then a quick OCD pass and I can build a preset.

[Duimon]

Here is look at the final Mega Duck.

I really like it. I went through and did a bunch of work on the little divot/grooves along the outside. (I wasn’t very happy with them before… I am happier now.)

I will post a live screenshot or two once I build the presets.

I found an old wood grain tv that looks good. It is one of the first tvs I actually found that had the buttons on the right, like it does. Most tvs around the time period, I know, had knobs.

[Duimon]

I like it! It has a lot in common with my TV5 RCA. I have saved the image and may do it later when I return to doing vintage TVs.

[hgoda90]

I would say it’s like if TV5 and TV7 were merged together.
