Mr. RetroLust Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 (edited) Part of the "Lights Out - Realistic Bezels" series, for RetroArch bezels in this series see: https://forums.launchbox-app.com/files/file/1950-mr-retrolusts-lights-off-retroarch-bezels/ About: 2000 Realistic bezels in 3840x2160 resolution for MAME. My goal was to make bezels for around 1300 MAME games I had in my collection but I ended up making around 700 bezels more. I started this project in 2019 and finished it in 2022. I used existing high quality artwork but also cleaned a lot of previously unavailable artwork which @Mr. Do had in his amazing collection. I searched high and low with google images to find existing artwork, which took me to Japanese websites oftenly using google translate and research to get to those obscure images. The quality isn't always as high but I made sure I always used the highest quality I could find. NOTE: This project uses a reflection and scratch layer to add a realistic effect, it defines the style of the project, this is not for everyone. But please don't request "a clean verion" as I haven't kept the layer formats for all these 2000 games, this project is what it is. ============== Installation: Extract the zip files in mame/artwork/ and you are ready to go. ============== Credits: Most of the artwork used are from the most excellent @Mr. Do & the many team members: http://mrdo.mameworld.info/index.php For NeoGeo artwork much artwork came from: http://www.neogeosoft.com/ For Flyer artwork the amazing: https://flyers.arcade-museum.com/ and https://www.flyerfever.com/ Some artwork used from: https://www.verticalarcade.com/ which has amazing vertical bezels, be sure to pay them a visit. Special thanks to the following people, without them this project wouldn't be what it is: @ArsInvictus John Merrit, @Briball @cmgssilva @Orionsangel @Boz1978 @L4ZYD4NE @Manson976 UDb23 @IainSA TheGuru, Smitdogg, CAG, DrVectrex, tbombaci, italie, MAMEWorld, Ad_Enuff, UDb Raspbear, @destrowade @CKL @Thoggo @Antny @Dreamstate =================================== Here's my first Mame 4K bezel Shadow Dancer arcade mame bezel shdancer.zip Edited September 28, 2022 by Mr. RetroLust 14 1 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks bro, glad you like I'm working on Naomi as well in the mean time, a lot of dedicated cabinets and variations so it takes a while to get em done. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenGriffon Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Thanks, I think you also need the "raster.ini" and "vector.ini" files from /ini/presets in your Mame folder. If it's not too much of a bother, that would be awesome if you shared them. I like how your settings aren't overpowering. The scanlines look "right" in my 40-something brain as to what arcade monitors looked like back in the day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flope Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Awesome work. Regarding the shader files, It has been a while that I wanted to ask about it. I am not an expert but, based on the file, it seems that you don't distort (or tilt) the screen to create the effect of a CRT monitor curvature, right? Any advice regarding distortions? I think for arcades I use some shader call CRT (CRT-Royale, maybe). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks man There is a bit of distortion going on in my shader file; "distortion 0.15". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
