Homebrew Cover Collections for Emulators With Cover Support

[mastershoes]

All of these sets do use the no-intro naming convection where available. However, in the case of some sets, where the roms are labeled (USA, Europe) I have both a USA and European version of the cover, so they get marked as they are. There are mass renaming tools available to assist you.

I did it a little fast I hope it looks good, for the new retroarch core with 32x support

Thank you but it's not necessary. I've already done it. I still need to optimize the png's before releasing

Hey @mastershoes

I've been going through my private collections of restored box art covers, and noticed I've got some that I'd like to share. I've got about 30 SMD and about 10 SCD covers with improved covers and/or clarity. Please let me know if you'd be interested in these. I've attached the most dramatically different versions I have to this post.

Battle Mania Daiginjou (Japan) shrunken current:

Battle Mania Daiginjou (Japan) -AC

Alien Soldier (Japan) curent:

Alien Soldier (Japan) -AC:

I also designed a custom USA style cover for Alien Soldier, as this game never had a physical release in that region.

I actually have a couple hundred covers in my pending genesis/megadrive update. The problem is it's the most intimidating set to update (so many different region covers!). I'm sure I probably have most of what you got (definitely have the 2 you posted). If I get time one of these days maybe i'll post the pending update folder, but it's kind of a mess. I gotta finish a few projects first though.

Holy smokes, I just took a look through all the SMD / Genesis sets. Wow, that is massive. I don't envy you.

I noticed something as I was looking through… the existing covers are 1061 x 680, but the covers I've been making for Wiiflow are 1090 x 680. Have I completely lost the plot, does Wiiflow actually render the WFC for SMD at 1061 pixels wide?

sry in advance if this was already addressed but i couldnt find an answer for it
are there any cartridge art downloads for genplusGX?

So the story is... back before plugins were a thing, i was talking to eke about implementing a coverflow of sorts to genplusgx. The original 3d set was intended to be used for that... anyway, he hooked be up with a link to an epic collection of raw scans, that ended up being the genplus set. When those were converted to maintain aspect ration vs the higher number (680 height) 1061 was the proper aspect ratio for width, and that's why they are sized that way. Anything under 1090x680 will display in wiiflow.

Thanks for all the insights! That answers and explains it well.

Hey i'm looking for boxart for wiiflow, but all nintendo boxart says "content removed". Does it have anything to do with copyright claims or something? And is there somelace else where i can find these?

Yeah, I had some issues with the big N from my previous association with another website. Tetsuo is hosting them here now.

Please find attached a covers collection for classic electronic LED handheld games (LedHead) simulators.
It contains the fifteen games included in the version 1.1 of the port to the Wii of LedHEAD, by Nebiun (see https://wiibrew.org/wiki/LedHeadWii).

 

[CoolMe]

Really useful. TY guys!

 

[mastershoes]

Please find attached a covers collection for classic electronic LED handled games (LedHead) simulators.
I've uploaded five covers so far, ten others are coming soon, in order to complete the collection for use with LedHead through Wiiflow.

Awesome! I'll post them in the OP when you finish the set.

 

[Okko]

Awesome! I'll post them in the OP when you finish the set.

Thanks! I'm done with the set, feel free to use it at your own convenience.

Nice! Added the set to the OP.

 

[Okko]

Nice! Added the set to the OP.

Thanks! I feel really proud of being part of the original post.

By the way, be careful, the five first covers in the pack that you've uploaded in the OP seem to be the old version (with black background) of the set. Now, those covers have coloured background, you may update them with the set attached to my post (https://gbatemp.net/attachments/ledhead-covers-collection-1-5-on-15-zip.273551/).
