Post Your Overlays!

If you’ve download the overlays from the online updater, just look in the ‘ipad’ subfolder and you’ll find a few that have been modified for the ipad’s aspect ratio.

Has anyone tried making game specific controller overlays? I kinda want to make a “one handed earthbound” overlay that puts the cross and the 3 active buttons all on the right hand side of the screen.

I feel like RPGs in general could benefit from game specific overlays, since a large number of them don’t use all of the available buttons.

Not that I know of, but it’s definitely an intriguing concept.

I’m not very good with the numbers and stuff…

Is there anyone here who would be willing to code one up if I do up the png?

These custom console themed overlays were made by me to play retro console games on Retroarch. I wanted these overlays to evoke a nostalgic feeling. Please enjoy and have fun. Please give me credit if you use it on your channel. Thanks.

Orion! These. Are. BEAUTIFUL! By any chance, do you have them without the console names on the sides? You rock!

Thank you. You know I didn’t think of that at the time. I should make alternate versions like that though. Thanks for the idea.

Welcome man! Hope to hear from you soon about those :slight_smile:

I found some time ago an overlay for N64 that has the same format of those you made. I modified it a little bit (removed the bottom texts and reduced the controllers plugs size). Cannot share it right now as I am not at my place atm, but here is the original one; might be of use to you (in case you have a N64 collection):

Cheers!

Some of these overlays are not mine. I just altered them by adding a border frame to them. The border frame is sometimes colorized by me to match the artwork. I also added the logo at the bottom of the border frame. So just to be clear, I don’t take credit for all of the artwork presented here.

You can get the original overlays that are not mine without frame borders here,

The original border frames came from here,
