Changelog

Found out about Recalbox "complete" pack, so I grabbed a few more systems from there.

  • Adds a few systems: Atari 800, Atari ST, MSX1/2/Turbo, Odyssey2/Videopac, Supergrafx, Samcoupe, X1, ZX81. And also Apple 2 but the emulator is not Libretro, so it doesn't display it.
  • Changes Channel F & PCFX

See issue #9 for systems still missing.

Contents

  • overlays_recalbox: overlays for Recalbox.
  • overlays_retropie: overlays with shaders applied to simulate CRT scanlines and LCD grids.

A whole lot of new systems: up to 64!

Of course it depends on whether the emulator runs on your machine (PC/Pi), and if the emulator you use is Libretro.

The source for a lot of new overlays are here: https://github.com/Duimon/HSM-Reflection-Shader-Graphics

Overlays pack compiled and configured for usage with Retropie.

Changelog

New system overlays in the "shaders" pack!

  • Panasonic 3DO
  • Atari 5200
  • Atari Jaguar
  • Coleco ColecoVision
  • Mattel IntelliVision
  • Sega Saturn

There are PSD files for Playstation 2 and Gamecube in _sources/systems-custom but since they don't work at all on a Raspberry Pi, I did not create the overlay config (it should be easy to do, should you want to).

I also removed the "clear" overlays because it's the same as "shaders". Just edit the all/retroarch/overlay_cfg/common_crt.cfg file to remove the shader.

Contents

  • overlays_shaders: overlays with shaders applied to simulate CRT scanlines and LCD grids.
  • overlays_grid_integer: overlays with an included grid to simulate scanlines, integer-scaled emulator.
