    This Drives Me Nuts!
    I strayed from RetroArch for years, I hated the Interface Prior to Ps3 Ribbon.
    When I tried an M1 MacMini a few years ago to test the Hype, I ended up Loving it and Trying to Figure out how to Run Everything PC Related, Quake III Arena in HD is SICK!
    But these Damn Bezels Constantly give me the Runaround
    I'll have to give this another attempt when I get home from work: I have liked the AppleTVs simplicity over the years,, Thanks to the EU we have RetroArch on AppleTV Now Too LOL
    This Edit Tool Is KIller! Gonna have to try it

    • @otggaming3180
      @otggaming3180  7 месяцев назад +1

      That's what I keep mine at as well. I try to stick to overlays that will work with mega bezel such as the Orionsangel pack I mentioned. If I can't find an overlay to work with mega bezel, I will either modify an existing one or create my own.

    problem i keep running into is retroarch doesnt recognize new bezels and automatically place it on the game its meant for, at least not for new ones not of THE BEZEL PROJECT... I have a bunch of MSU-1 games Id love to have bezels for, but they never take. i will literally grab a bezel from bezel project complete with its cfg files, rename everything accordingly since you cant change the name of an MSU-1 rom or it wont properly with the new sound packs added.

      But you can create a LCD/CRT grid that doesn’t consume power at all.
      It’s much better than a shader.

      @@rolux4853 i dont mean screen overlays, i meant like artwork on the sides of the screen or a fake tv on sides of the screen, crt overlays arent inherently bad but yeah its like u wouldnt watch john wick with black bars at the top and bottom of the screen with artwork that has keanu reeves, why would u play a game that way? Just doesnt make sense to me, it pulls focus from the game, i dont get why retro collections have those on by default, thats all i was trying to say. Are those borders rather than overlays?
