    go on ! don't let anything stop you, if you got the console its easier to caught specific styles, i only got the ps1, for the others i had to relay on many many photos to get inspired. growing up here in argentina, we've got this bootleg rounded famicom model, (called electrolab family game) so i probably made one with this as a base: Don't forget to use the retropad editor, it is really helpful https://valent-in.github.io/retropad-editor/

    LOVE IT! i like how you make good use of some elements from the other overlays to make this one, i'll probably make one for the japanese famicom in the future, but more oriented in the console design/colors, but this one came out really nice. Thanks for the credit!

    NES - Animated overlay for Retroarch View File 1920X1080 Base resolution Fully compatible with the overlay AUTO-SCALE option Animated controller buttons Optional In-screen tube borders (bezel) Dark Theme Portrait Mode included Animated Fast-Forward Button (only on portrait mode) MEGA BEZEL PRESETS (Light and Dark) MEGA BEZEL PRESETS DARK LIGHT RECOMMENDED LANDSCAPE MODE SETTINGS OVERLAY SETTINGS: Enable the AUTO SCALE OVERLAY option. As this overlay is made by elements that stick to the edges, no matter what resolution is used. With this, the overlay won't look deformed if it's not used on a 16:9 display. Set "Show Inputs on Overlay" to "Physical (controller)" Or to "OFF" if overlay flashes on button presses. On the overlay settings set the OVERLAY OPACITY TO 1.0 VIDEO SCALING FOR LANDSCAPE/HORIZONTAL MODE For an aspect ratio screen of 16:9 set the video scaling to 4:3 non integer. And go Full screen. RECOMMENDED PORTRAIT MODE SETTINGS OVERLAY SETTINGS (NOT NEEDED IN UPDATE 1.1) Use the same Overlay setting as for landscape mode. But Also Enable the AUTO ROTATE OVERLAY setting And in your phone enable the AUTO- ROTATION TOGGLE. This would auto switch the overlay to landscape if its hold horizontally, and auto switch to portrait mode if its held vertically. If for some reason it wont switch to portrait mode, and it stays in the landscape mode on the middle of the screen, I added a button on top " SWITCH TO PORTRAIT MODE" touch/click that to force the portrait mode. VIDEO SCALING FOR PORTRAIT MODE For some reason, Auto scaling for portrait overlays is only functional in horizontal elements. Meaning that vertical elements, wont align or stick to the top and bottom of the display. With this in mind, i made the portrait overlay with only horizontal elements. I tested this overlay on phones with screens of an aspect ratio of 16:9, 18.5:9 and 20:9. With these results: - On a screen ratio display of 16:9 set video scaling to 16:10 - On a screen ratio of 18.5:9 and 20:9 set video scaling to 4:3 NOTE ABOUT ANIMATED RESET AND FAST FORWARD BUTTONS RetroArch only allows to "animate" controller buttons, so to "cheat" this limitation, and create an animated non controller buttons, i used a combination of controller buttons. For example if you push in you controller the buttons R3+Y you'll see the reset button animate, but the emulator won't reset. (set a combination hotkey if you want it to). For the FAST FORWARD button, i set it to the R2 button, as i use that button in general for that function. Submitter fercho Submitted 10/28/2022 Category Platform Bezels/Overlays

    Super Famicom - Animated Overlay for Retroarch View File 1920X1080 Base resolution But should be compatible with wider displays. as elements arranges to the left and right independently of the resolution.

    Problably that's the problem, Also check in the overlay menu section, if there is an option enabled called "show inputs on overlay" and that "show inputs from port" is set to number 1 , if those options are not there, you need to update retroarch to make it work.

    Yeah a lot of time for the buttons position and size, the format retroarch uses for that is really weird. Did not try it on a 4k monitor, but if your screen ratio is 16:9 you should be fine, regardless what resolution you are using. If not, you've got to adjust the overlay settings on retroarch to stretch and fill the whole screen, I try it on my phone (which is bigger that 16:9) and got black bars on the sides, with the buttons missplaced, So in the worst case, that would happen to you, but can be fixed in the overlay settings. Remember to keep the video screen scale to 4:3 as i set it up to that zise as base: SETTINGS >> VIDEO >> SCALING: INTEGER SCALE: OFF ASPECT RATIO: 4:3 CROP OVERSCAN: ON Use this setting on fullscreen and you should be good to go.
