Duimon - HSM Mega Bezel Graphics and Presets - Feedback and Updates

Yeah, I didn’t go through the motions of making it color-able for use in a regular preset. (I need to be conservative with layers.)

If/When I create presets with room backgrounds I may separate the layers. (Like the standalone PVM’s.)

That would be great but not really necessary to me. The coloring ability is secondary to number of layers. Some you can do and others you just can’t, c’est la vie.

Only for now. Once they are standalone my priorities will change I think.

Hello Were in the github might I find the wooden TV bezel? The one with the little dog top left corner. I searched but could not find it. Thanks

…/TV/TV6…slangp

I highly encourage you to use the GitHub installation method (In the second post.) if you are looking for the Mega Bezel preset. The presets can reference images in more than a single folder.

Here is a new WIP.

The VTech CreatiVision!

Since I finished up the BBC set I figured i should tie up this loose end.

I struggled a lot with the mock-up. The keys on the gamepads are the most distinctive feature. If I took a cue from my Intellivision graphic they disappeared behind the bezel, and it just didn’t look right if I took inspiration from the ColecoVision. :frowning_face:

In the end I did take some inspiration from the ColecoVison and put the logo on the gamepads, since it is also hidden by the bezel. (Although it is there.)

I kept most of the grays just at the top of the 20% level to minimize banding. I did have to use some texture/grain where I didn’t really want. (Where the grays dipped out of gamut.)

I think it looks pretty good. There is a whole lot going on in the source. :innocent:

@Duimon I thought you should know that its Thomson MO5 and TO8. Your set has them as M04 and T08, essentially it is a O not a zero.

Edit: Also the shaders for the BBC_Master are called Micro, BBC_Master/Micro-[STD]-[Guest]-[Bezel].

I had no idea. :astonished: :rofl:

Yeah, I was doing search and replace when I mass created those after the last update. (They are essentially the same parameters except for the image paths.)

Looks like it is all just a matter of renaming some files and folders. I’ll do it all at the same time.

Thanks!

Edit: I’ll have to do a bit of S & R for the Thomson presets. Thankfully I didn’t use characters to create the Thomson logos so I won’t have to go into the source.

That was pretty quick work, although there were a lot of instances on my HDD that had to be changed.

It is done.

@Duimon I found that the VTech Laser 310 Graphics isn’t in the repo either.

Keep up the good work my friend!

They are in the repo.

@Duimon you forgot the most important part of the Thomson rename, changing the name of the folders.

Nope. I changed them on my end… I have no idea what happened. I’ll try another commit.

I did another commit and verified on GitHub that they had changed. Try again.

BTW. Since it was only the name of the preset folder, so they would still load, I’m not sure why that is the “Most Important” part.

Failing to rename a graphic or missing a preset edit would have been far worse.

It works good now, thanks. :partying_face: I have had problems with Github sometimes myself.

I was using the most important part as a type of saying instead of being literal.

Hi Thanks Duimon. Currently, I’m just grabbing the png and lay file because my feeble notebook can’t cope with reflective shaders.

So I indeed found that overlay, so thanks for that, but the TV6 version has also a wall behind the TV, making the TV smaller and thus also the screen itself. I seem to recall you also had another version of this overlay where the TV was more zoomed in, removing the back wall altogether.

That was the scaling done by the shader. It will only take a second to generate a zoomed version using the tools built in to the shader. Sec.

OK, there is now a …TV/TV6_Scaled… day and night in the Overlay repo.

I haven’t yet done a Trinitron. I do have plans to add to my collection of TV graphics.

It will have to wait until I am done with my system list.
