+pboland Posted July 23, 2017 Author Share Posted July 23, 2017 (edited) ...Curious if you are able to make these? I also need the AVP overlays too as I only have the cart. Yes I can. I show my work in the very first post of this topic (samples are pictured) and yes I have the AVP overlays. If you look just two post above your first post you will see the overlays that I have already done the art work for. And a reminder to all (just incase some of you missed it), I'm not able to emboss these overlays so they are flat, but they are 100% plastic. Thanks TrekMD for the PM. Time for me to get to work. More to come...but keep the ideas coming. Edited July 23, 2017 by pboland 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+pboland Posted July 26, 2017 Author Share Posted July 26, 2017 Okay here's my take on the Battle Sphere overlay: Let me know what you guys think. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UHATEIT Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Looks great! I'll buy that along with a bunch of others from you. When might production and sales be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+pboland Posted July 28, 2017 Author Share Posted July 28, 2017 I was looking at the AirCars overlay that is in the manual for the game. Do you guys think I should make an overlay that is just like the one in the manual or should I make something new? I ask because I can't help but notice that the images are very busy and the text is rather small for an overlay. Here's the overlay from the manual at the size it would be when printed. I understand the desire to have the one in the manual (makes for a truly complete game), but the overlay is actually not very easy to read or even see what the images are. If you guys really have your heart set on this particular overlay then I will make mine very close to that one, but this game might benefit from a differently styled overlay. Let me know what you guys think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrekMD Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I agree, I think you should improve upon the design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UHATEIT Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Definitely redo the one from the Aircars manual and ad some color! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Saturn Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I'd vote for doing a version of both (original and improved) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+pboland Posted July 29, 2017 Author Share Posted July 29, 2017 I'd vote for doing a version of both (original and improved) I think I might be going this route. First up what I hope is a new an improved AirCars overlay: This one was a challenge. There is a lot that is on the original overlay (too much visually). I understand why it is all on there, but I really felt it needed to be a little easier to read. Let me know what you guys think. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+pboland Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 For Iron Soldier 2 (which has the same controls as the original) I wanted to have a slightly different overlay. So, this is what I came up with: Very similar to the first with just a little change to show it is for Iron Soldier 2 (here they are side by side): 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UHATEIT Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 There is another thread about Syndicate with a guy hoping for an overlay. I linked him to this thread since Syndicate was one of the ones I was looking for, so you may have additional interest in that game as well! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+orpheuswaking Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 The Battlesphere ones the graphics should be swapped. The non gold one looks far better than gold (The middle column) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WIZZARD77 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 I second a Syndicate one that would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
032-Bias Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 (edited) This thread has 2 fan-made Syndicate overlays to give you some ideas. http://atariage.com/forums/topic/217368-does-syndicate-use-the-keypad-on-the-jaguar-controller/ Edit: It has 3, one further down near the bottom. Is in black and white, but still. Edited August 16, 2017 by 032-Bias Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
032-Bias Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Okay so found another thread with a Sky Hammer overlay: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/109249-2-new-custom-overlays/ And apparently some one has done overlays for like 40 games (new and old); not trying to take away from what is happening here and I eagerly await the final results. The collecton is called "Atari Jaguar Orphan Overlay Collection" and has 2 add-ons. Will refrain from posting a link since it could be seen as competition, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+pboland Posted August 17, 2017 Author Share Posted August 17, 2017 This one was kind of difficult because the keys have alternate uses. So here's what I came up with for Syndicate: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
