4k MAME ARTWORKS OVERLAYS by retrorom-4k

[retrorom]

hi, I started to make artworks for MAME only 5 months ago. My very first artworks were fantasy sony trinitron bezels (based on my old crt) with optional scanlines skin I have made (still from a picture taken from my old sony), it is a png so zero cpu ressource. Then I discovered John Merrit work : except dirt screen that I dislike, I have fallen in love immediately. So I have redone all John Merrit artworks without scratch screen effect and with my scanlines option. This month I started to make my own artworks like John Merrit realistic style in 4k 3840-2160px with working shifter and lamps when available in mame.

NB: I had to change my alias as "retrorom-4k" instead of just "retrorom" because it was confusing with other people named RetroRom, RETRO-ROM, RetroROM, [RetroROMS], etc... This time I have checked and there is no other "retrorom-4k". Sadly I cannot change username here on mamedev so you still see my posts as retrorom.

I have made a new space invaders 4k artwork this week with different options and views :

midway


taito


artemisII : I have replaced the backdrop and the moon with real pictures from NASA artemis II mission released last month, so we also see a part of our earth on top left


if you have invaders rom and you want to test it then download invaders.zip from my link above and copy zip in mame\artwork

Preview of my next 16-9 4k artworks based on mr. do 4-3 bezels :
- altbeast


- asteroid


- astorm


- astyanax


- atetris


- baddudes


- bloxeed


- bombjack


- cawing


- cltchitr

- dotron : huge work for this one because of multiple images involved


- hng64 : sadly the cabinet image I found was in low resolution (600*1000) so I did my best to increase resolution, I kept 4k though because my optional scanlines look much better in 4k than FHD


- neogeo (generic for all roms)


- qix


- relief

I have made 2 new 4k artworks with working lamps :

- chasehq


In order to keep the marquee with lamps, I had to move the real shifter I have made on the lower right corner of the bezel instead of full control panel

- apb

my new 4k artworks overlays with real active shifter :

- outrun : bezel is from John Merrit and I have added real control panel with the real shifter I have made


- its successor orunners : bezel still from John Merrit, I have made dual cockpits with real control panel, working lamps and again I have made real shifter
