The bezel sets use No-Intro naming, when available. Quote
Beanie moo Posted February 18, 2021 Posted February 18, 2021 im trying a new installation with no into roms see if that works its driving me crazy Quote
Light Sock Posted February 22, 2021 Posted February 22, 2021 I just wanted to say a big thank you for this incredible software! It must have saved so many hours in the life of so many people. I tried it directly on Mame and it works out of the box! 1 Quote
vgbox Posted August 7, 2021 Posted August 7, 2021 (edited) Which mass match naming software is recommended these days to rename Retroarch\config\NeoCD config files games names to the latest no intro Neo Geo CD roms names, or for any other RA core config files for that matter? I got the DAT file of the rom set. EDIT: There seem to be no software which can accurately match names. I tried FatMatch but its a real hassle so i use system bezel for all unsupported cores/emulators/unmatching sets which seem to be all except Standalone Mame (All my sets are the latest no intros and redumps). Btw, How to use each own system bezel for sms/md/mega cd in RA (they all use the same core - Genesis Plus GX)? Edited August 7, 2021 by vgbox Quote
red36 Posted December 4, 2021 Posted December 4, 2021 I'm getting the following error when installing the Bezel project (it can't seem to complete. most particularly it seems to occur during the enabling process. I get the following error: or some reason it's repeating the folder structure even though the install directory is set here Anyone know what I can do? Ive found the ini file and tried deleting the folder entry and re-entering but still is borked. Quote
Cyprus_Mark Posted January 9, 2022 Posted January 9, 2022 HI, I am trying to download the arcade Bezels in retroarch using the bezel project. All seems fine except the zip file it downloads says unexpected end of file and only has the png files up to the letter D. I tried the manual download and I get the message "file is missing from repository". |Any suggestions please Quote

Located here... Fairly large file 670MB. Maybe try again?!? I haven't kept up with the bezel project in a while, I need to update mine and get back into it. Quote

I get no errors when I access and/or download using the Windows app. Could possibly be a temporary issue on Github's end. I would wait a few hours, then retry. Quote
totoro Posted January 13, 2022 Posted January 13, 2022 I don´t want the edges of the gameplay area curved, but that seems to be the case in every screenshot or video I saw. Is there any option in MAME, to override this and put the gameplay area one layer "above" the artwork, so that only the "black bars"-area is filled with an artwork as background? Quote

One option is to batch process the files to remove the TV surround. Quote

I found out, that the gameplay area is actually fully visible with the bezel project artwork, so these are mostly the bezels of my choice. Quote
myric227 Posted March 17, 2022 Posted March 17, 2022 How do you get the Darius/Darius 2 bezels to load in Mame? I've tried searching a few forums and Google, but can't find an answer. Other bezels work fine in Mame, but the triple monitor ones will not load. Quote

I've tried searching a few forums and Google, but can't find an answer. Other bezels work fine in Mame, but the triple monitor ones will not load. They load fine here. Just like any other bezel file, naming is key. Have you used the Tab key in Mame when one of those games is running, then looked at the video options to see which file MAME is using? You can then go through all the options MAME allows for overlays/backdrops/etc. If you find one option that causes what you want to see, see if you can save a MAME over ride for that one game. Quote

So I load Mame up, then load various versions of Darius, world, japan, etc. None of them display the bezel. The only way I found to get the bezel to display is by loading the game, hitting tab, load video options, select screen 0, and select bezel artwork instead of three by three. This changes the game to only be one screen at 4:3 however, with the bezel covering the game. This is a default install of the newest Mame. Is there a setting I'm missing or is this only going to work in Retroarch Mame? Quote

The only two multi-monitor bezels included in the MAME pack is darius and darius2. Do you see these in your artwork directory? (See below) Quote

dragon57 Posted March 18, 2022 Posted March 18, 2022 I use non-merged myself, but that shouldn't matter. When in the MAME Tab/video options section, do you see either of those multi-monitor graphics? If not, look for any existing darius ini files and either delete them, or move them so MAME can't find them, then re-test MAME. Quote

Pic 1 is when the game loads, Pic 2 is the video options, 3 is when I select bezel. It shows, but then the game is only a large single screen. Quote
myric227 Posted March 18, 2022 Posted March 18, 2022 I've also just tried an alternative, Arcade64, and the same thing. Other bezels load fine, but Darius won't load the bezel. I think I'll download spilt or non merged and see it that does anything. Quote
myric227 Posted March 20, 2022 Posted March 20, 2022 Well, non merged didn't help. I've tried mame, arcade64 and retroarch. I've tried every video option I could find in these programs and I still can't get it to display correctly. The only way for it to display is doing the method in Picture 3 of my previous post, but that's then only showing it as a single screen game, with the bezel obstructing the view. If this is working correctly for anyone else, could you attach your config files for testing please? Quote
