Hey everyone, Im new here. I have been reading and re-reading this whole thread over and over for DAYS, but I am just not comprehending it due to how complicated it is (from my perspective/skill level) so I have a question.
I use retroarch with launch box as my primary interface on my Windows PC and I recently learned about the whole overlay image thing with shader options and I am very excited about this, but it’s clear to me that after all the reading ive done here, this is beyond my abilities. So I need some help. I have a custom-made overlay .png image that I created in photoshop (that I created using an actual photo of the TV that I grew up playing all these retro games on when I was a kid in the late 80s/early 90s, so it’s VERY important special to me.) I just have 2 goals, 1. I want to get this overlay image set up properly, and 2. I want to get a good shader on there to simulated the old style glass screen/scan lines of the TVs of that era.
So, with those two goals in mind, can someone please help me streamline this process with a clear itemized shopping list of steps that I need to take in order to achieve this end result. I do really well with checklists. I would prefer to continue using launch box as my primary retro game interface as it is beautiful, but if I need to go back to just using retro arch only, I am willing to do that if this is not possible within LB. I am also willing to modify my custom overlay png image file in photoshop if needed to fit with the shader file.
Thank you to anyone who can help me. I really appreciate it.
