Thank you! That means a lot to me.

I’m new here. What exactly is a repo?

Heh, I forgot to post the link. It’s there now.

It’s a git repo, which is a type of version control. It lets people copy data from the repo and make changes to their local copy and then submit those changes back to the repo for other people to sync up to.

@hunterk Maybe this should be a sticky in the overlay forums so that people can see when they can submit the overlays for safe keeping.

Links go out of date and vanishes and that’s sad all together for everyone.

Thanks Orion :slight_smile:, i’m not pro but overlays inspire me to be better.

You’re welcome my friend :slight_smile:

I decided to make 1080p resolution Tomb Raider 2, test it because i have 16:10 monitor and try this settings in retroarch: integer scale off, viewport x 278, viewport y 30, viewport width 1364, viewport height 1020.

This is awesome, I bookmarked this post. I have one question, I think my question may be around but still not sure about it. How do you set overlays per game. For example I was doing that for emerson system (I think) and I set an overlay per game. There where like 10 games only.

But for MAMe are like 1000+ and it is not gonna be reasonable to do that one by one. How do you set up the overlays per game in that case. I got mame overlays from somewhere else but I haven’t tried that. I have been using bezel fro hyperspin for now but I don’t like how some of them look like with the resolution.

Thanks

@bad_boo, once you load your overlay, for Super Mario Bros., for instance, and want this overlay to load exclusively for this game, just save an override game config.

Thanks Orion. Wanted to check the file but it gives me an error when opening it up. Let me know if somebody else downloads it and works fine (maybe its just me).

Thanks, Yes, I did it that way with a few games on the GCE Vectrex. I used the “override game” option. But that is when you do it one by one. I mean is there a way for the game to get the overlay automatically per game? The same way the bezels work on Rocketlauncher, where as long as the bezel has the same name of the rom name, it will load automatically.

Hmm, that would be nice, I believe you could do that editing some configs here and there, but if an automated way exists, I’m not aware of.

I just created two simple borders for NDS and GBA, it just needs the video aspect set to “core provided” and it should fit if you’re using a 16:9 monitor.

That’s strange. It works for me and others that have told me it’s working.
