Hgoda90 - Mega Bezel Graphics + Varieties

[hgoda90]

I thought to post, for those that want to do custom Ball Tops, the proper color settings.

Hue: if Hue < 52 than add 308, if Hue >= 52 than subtract 52
Saturation: no change
Brightness: +10
Gamma: 0.45

Stick presets have been added to Console Arcade in the repo with a few fixes as well. I am going to have to recheck the other styles for problems soon.

[hgoda90]

Stick presets for non-default Console Arcade variations have been added to the repo.

@hgoda90 excuse my dumbness, when you say added to the repo does that mean we can download ?

[hgoda90]

Yeah that means it has been added to Github repository.

[Big_al]

Thanks I’ll have a look…

[hgoda90]

I had the idea to rename 3DS and DS preset variations. Vertical will be Standard, while Horizontal and Big+Small will combine into Big. The renaming will only apply to my custom made presets and none of the other creators.

[hgoda90]

3DS and DS changes have been added to the repo.

The current WIP is Nintendo VS System for Console Arcade. I have done blue as the default and will do orange and possibly black. I will release them with DOSBox; strongly thinking of a ffmpeg variation.

[hgoda90]

DOSBox and VS System have been added to Console Arcade in the repo.

Some shaders no longer work, but they do if I retry from the original folder from before, I’ll let you know which, I’m just at work.

[hgoda90]

Thanks @Big_al, I went ahead and checked the presets. I found Console Arcade PC-FX and the night presets of Mega Bezel Box were the only ones that needed fixing. Just let me know what you found still to verify.

I will be doing the variation of Jakks with wildcard next, sort of. Adding a few games at a time since, from what I can tell, is that there around 40 with MAME. I will convert default to its wildcard equivalent, while keeping default, and Dragon Ball Z first.

@hgoda90 I Had a quick look and here’s what doesn’t work for me.

E:\LaunchBoxX\Emulators\RetroArch\shaders\Mega_Bezel_Packs\Hgoda90-Graphic-Varieties\00 – Mega Bezel Box\Atari – Atari 2600/Default-[Alt]-[Night] and these next ones did work before but not now, there the game gear ones…

E:\LaunchBoxX\Emulators\RetroArch\shaders\Mega_Bezel_Packs\Hgoda90-Graphic-Varieties\00 – Console Arcade\Sega – Game Gear

Retroarch log for Atari 2600

[WARN] 
[Shaders]: Could not load root preset for #reference entry: "E:\LaunchBoxX\Emulators\RetroArch\shaders\Params\Mega-Bezel-Box\Night.params".
[ERROR] [Vulkan]: Failed to create preset: "E:\LaunchBoxX\Emulators\RetroArch\shaders\Mega_Bezel_Packs\Hgoda90-Graphic-Varieties\00 -- Mega Bezel Box\Atari -- Atari 2600\Default-[Alt]-[Night].slangp".

EDIT… I’ve got the game gear working, it was missing the “Decals” folder, so i took it from the previous working ones… The Decals folder is missing from the zip download…

E:\LaunchBoxX\Emulators\RetroArch\shaders\Mega_Bezel_Packs\Hgoda90-Graphic-Varieties\00 – Console Arcade\res\images\Decals

Cheers

[hgoda90]

Thanks for the info @Big_al. Looking at the Console Arcade, Game Gear params file had the wrong path for Decals. I didn’t change the path when the Decals folder was moved to global. The Mega Bezel Box fix was added previously.

The decal path changes have been added to the repo.

A:\LaunchBox\Emulators\RetroArch\shaders\Mega_Bezel_Packs\Hgoda90-Graphics-n-Varieties\00 – Console Arcade\res\images\global\decals

[Big_al]

Thanks @hgoda90 for that Game Gear working again…

i cannot get any of these to work… E:\LaunchBoxX\Emulators\RetroArch\shaders\Mega_Bezel_Packs\Hgoda90-Graphic-Varieties\Duimon – Mega Bezel Graphics

Duimon own standalone shaders work in the root. E:\LaunchBoxX\Emulators\RetroArch\shaders\Mega_Bezel_Packs\Duimon-Mega-Bezel

Sorry for the messages, just going through some.

[hgoda90]

Can you point me to one that doesn’t work specifically? The ones I tested all worked fine.

[Big_al]

They all work @hgoda90 until i try any in the arcade folder…
