      Re: How to install Overlays (borders)

      Now that 4.1 is launched (many thanks for this), I think I finally could use overlays for my systems, but, well, it is not that easy to put overlays at all... I already tried and failed two times to put overlays on Mega Drive system. I've followed the new section on the tutorials, but just could not make it to works.
      Are there another "noob friendly" tutorial on how to put systems overlays anywhere? ^^
      Thanks.

          Thanks! Please, both the .cfg and .png files needs to be named <system name>_overlay in the overlays paste, ok? But the .cfg file must be named just <system name>.cfg in the retroarch folder? Or can be also <system name>_overlay.cfg?

              Thanks to @Dark_Néo and his video tutorials (why not link them to the manual?) I've finally get that overlays working! ^^

                I had totally forgotten about overlays - thanks acris! 🙂

                Going to give it a go when I get a chance.
                Think it will be easier to do a single system first due to every game on it being the same resolution etc.
