I'd like to about Overlay for PC x86

[Infiltraitor]

Hello guys,

I was wondering if anyone had overlays working on emulators for recalbox running under PC x86?

I was searching the forum all I have was for retropie not even on PC.

I'd like to add that I'm using the 1:1 ratio or the pixel perfect on all emulators on a 1080 monitor.

It would be nice to see even as simple as a CRT TV screen with retro library as background. And editable if possible.

@infiltraitor For Overlays, for now, use:
https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/22321/recalbox-7-2-x-overlays-complets

As you can read, one of the recommended options is to use ARRM to make configuration easier:

I'd like to add that I'm using the 1:1 ratio or the pixel perfect

On the ARRM Wiki there is a warning:
Do not activate the pixel perfect

I recommend that you test with ARRM, read the wiki, and, in case of problems, contact the developer at the corresponding topic.

@zing Thanks Zing, the ARRM has overwhelmed me enough to think if its even worth setting an overly.

May I ask are you using overlays? My system is a 2007 running x86 Recalbox. I am also thinking if it will impact performance more than the emulation.

@infiltraitor

are you using overlays?

I don't use it, although I think it's nice, I prefer to only display the game on the screen, and in a few cases it affects emulation (however rare), I prefer to avoid it.
