Title: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: tiktektak on April 15, 2007, 02:38:12 PM
I say Hello again!

Thought I make a new thread for the Mega Drive - Genesis covers which are coming from me/others?
There is one for N64/SNES so I thought there should be one for the Genesis/MD too.... :)

And to do what I advertise here is the first one from me:

King's Bounty:
http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/tiktektak.retail.genesis_king%5C'sbounty_genesis_ntsc.jpg

This is one off my alltime favourite MD games! I played it for hundreds of hours when I was younger!

Great! How much more do you have? Once I have my new ftp credentials I'll add your covers. I added the other covers in this thread already before we moved to the new host.

The Genesis/Mega Drive covers are pretty easy if all they need is resizing and a quick tidy up. I've taken the 5 Spider-Man covers from the raw site and should have them done in the next 24 - 48 hours.

I'm actually working on them at the moment. My 24-48 hr time frame was a little ambitious.
Realistically, probably another day or two.

Even though the MD/Genesis covers need little cleanup compared to e.g. SNES sovers they take their time... Everytime I think I can do one in a hour or so I end sitting there for a whole evening because I always find some more spots I like to clean or alter a little... :)

So take your time and I'm sure the outcome will be great again!

Did the US Version of X-Men 2 come in a cardboard box? What a pity because in this case it is much much more work than the EU cover(which came in hardcover full sleeve box).... Those cardboard covers do look horrible often!

Yeah, I scanned my copy, which was that horrible cardboard case. In my youth, I knew it would end up destroyed if I kept the carboard as it was, so I cut it up a bit to slide into a plastic case. Unfortunately, it was still pretty banged up by that point, so that (along with my uneven cutting abilities :-X) means a bit of extra work to get it cleaned up.

@JSF James:
I'm very pleased that someone has upped many Genesis raws because it's one off my favourite collectors systems and I'll do them all if there's no version posted.... BUT please if you scan a cover try to keep it straight!!! For example the Saint Sword cover looks great but is completely tilted and maybe because it was scanned too skewed there are parts of the top and side cover missing which make it unusable for cleaning.... Hope you can scan it again straight and complete..... :)

Sorry about the delay! I kinda disappeared for a while didn't I.

My one year old daughter broke her leg about a month ago and has ended up a lap sitter since she couldn't get around with the cast on. Sitting in front of the PC with her was a nightmare so everything got put on hold.
The cast has come off now so I can get back into those covers I was working on.

I've got the X-Men 2 open right now so shouldn't be too long.

Hey guys,
 
I stumbled across a site that has some decent scans of PAL and Japanese Mega Drive covers. The only problem is that it is in Frence and I can't read it to find where the covers actually are.

If you know French then this ma be a goldmine for Genesis/MegaDrive covers.

No it's unfortunately not. I found this site a year or two ago. It's of use if there's no one with a cover and that's the only place you can get it, but the covers vary greatly in resolution. As far as I saw none of the covers is scanned at 300dpi, some are 200 dpi but the majority is just crap :-/
Maybe someone with enough Photoshop skills can touch up some of those covers though.

Oh, and you find the covers if you click on the corresponding link on the left, under emulation. From there you can access the covers.

Is the back all Spanish? If so I'd say it's an _es cover even if the artwork on the front is the same. I mean, look at the Burnout covers in the PS2 or XBOX360 section, the artwork is pretty much the same throughout regions, even the text layout is the same, it's only the language that's different.

No I closed the scanner lid.  It sits flush with the glass and is pretty heavy so the books were overkill, but its the thought that counts.  Point is that it wasn't getting any flatter.

Ok nice work.... I was just wondering why there still where some strange reflections on the cover and some of the lines where not straight. As if the cover still wasn't really flat out....  ???
Ahhhh.... Maybe it was just printed like that.....

Thanks for your contributions by the way.... Will take some time though to finish them because I'm working 60h a week at the moment.....

Post by: velvet396 on July 11, 2007, 10:34:38 AM
np for the contributions.  As for the strange reflections, there does appear to be a slight film of something on the underside of the scanner glass, which I can't do anything about without breaking it.  It's never shown up in anything else.

As far as the straight lines not all coming out straight, I don't know, I saw that too.  I assure it was as flat as possible.  You gotta figure the cover's been in a bent position for over a decade.

In other news, my last "gift" cover will be Cubivore for the Gamecube, one I'm sure you don't already have, and aren't likely to come across unless you have another cover-uploader with eccentric gaming tastes.

Thanks for the contribution and welcome on board....

Problem is we allready have a eu cover for wily wars and it is almost exactly the same as yours except for the spanish language on the back..... So I can't post it sorry.... If you want to contribute any other cover you are very welcome but always look if it's allready there..... :)


Is the back all Spanish? If so I'd say it's an _es cover even if the artwork on the front is the same. I mean, look at the Burnout covers in the PS2 or XBOX360 section, the artwork is pretty much the same throughout regions, even the text layout is the same, it's only the language that's different.

Hey again!
Sorry for not answering.... I forgot about the post.....
I didn't post the Wily Wars cover because it was exactly like the EU cover we have but with one language on the back replaced by spanish.... So it was just a variation of the eu cover not a real spain only cover....

No word from BungleBoss on the X-Men 2: Clone Wars cover since about mid-June, so I figured I'd bump it up. Is anyone else out there willing to take crack at cleaning that case up? In the raw section if anyone's feeling ambitious :) Thanks!

I could take a crack at it. I take it you want it as a UGC? I can't make any promises on the outcome but I'll do my best.

I made a quick preview. Tried to cover up the old rating logo with a new one. I'm not sure if it looks better or maybe I should keep the old one.
What do you think? I edited the template a bit so it wouldn't obscure the Marvel comics logo Here it is.

I am working on a template that will stay very true to the original with a bit of touch ups if anyone is interested. I should also mention that you may want to keep the original rating logo in the X-Men cover. It seems to me it is to close to the edge.

Is that the one with the red and dark red stripes? If so I would be very interested.
The problem with the original rating logo is that it's also close to the edge and it's tilted so it looks really wierd.
I'll try to get a pic of it later today.

Sorry about the tilting, it's probably due to the way I scanned it. If it'll make things easier, I can try scanning it in again.

Anyway, it's looking great so far! I would like to see a version using the red stripes if possible (Hexxer's template?), but what you've got here is off to a great start :) Definitely appreciated!

I should have a finished template uploaded by tomorrow evening. I am planning to make it a mega drive/Genesis template, hence why I am taking longer. I may just put out the genesis tomorrow and add the mega drive after.

OK, I am sorry to say but it will be another day I think. I just formatted my laptop and still have to get visual studios and a bunch of other crap on here for school in the morning.

One other thing. The X-Men cover may look better if you take a picture of it as it has the foil background. Of course, thats if you have a good enough camera in the first place.

I'm curious as to how this supposed new Genesis/Mega Drive template is different from the Genesis template we already have in the templates section (apart from adding the obvious Mega Drive layer). Said template is also Hexxxer's work, so what's the difference? Another collor theme? If yes, anything else?

Could you please also consider uploading the covers you plan to work on in their original form? Everyone uses templates and stuff for everything but what about the originals....? *sigh*

Post by: Hexxxer on August 27, 2007, 07:50:49 PM
As promised here is my new Sega Genesis template. I kept this very true to the original's style but tried to tie the spine in with the Sega CD and the dreamcast templates. This should be alot easier to use then my original template because it is so close to the original.

That being said, take a look and tell me what you think. If it is missing something or something should be changed just say so. In the near future  I will be adding a euro Megadrive skin complete with logos. I will also be updating my 32x and Sega CD templates to match and will create a Saturn template too.

Enjoy!

Its actually a layer you can click on or off, I have it set to off by default so that it would fit a theme with other templates as I have mentioned earlier. If you rather would use it just click the layer on.

Dynamite Headdy - EU version

I decided against substituting the Mega Drive and Sega logos for high resolution SVG versions because the original cover was in mint condition.

Next I will be focusing on some Dreamcast covers. Oh, and I will try to clear some of the SNES raws whenever I can find the time.

I would cover it up with a new ratings logo and see what some spot touching does to the edge. you can try a little copy and pasting on the foil background and then you the spot fix tool.

It was scanned with the left side of the back cover cut off? Sorry but then it's unusable for our site unfortunately.... It's an incomplete cover otherwise....

Thanks for the flowers... :) It takes me some time to restore the covers to such a state but I always thought quality is much more important than quantity! I never upload a cover before I like it myself and that takes some time! ;D

I have to say though that I'm truly impressed what you've made off the low res scans you used for some off your covers.... They look almost as if they were high res to begin with just a little bit unsharp from the filters....

Thanks for the covers ragnarok and vt102....

@vt102: Your covers were really nice.... I just did some very minor tweaks and am going to upload them soon....

@ragnarok: Your scans are nice too... Problem is that they are a little unclean on some spots but nothing not fixable.... One weird thing though is the red border around your covers.... It's around your 32X and Genesis covers and I am wondering what this border is for...? Don't you think it would look much much better without the border....? I removed it on the Cliffhanger cover(and cleaned it a little bit further) just to show you what I mean... :)

Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: Ragnarok2103 on December 09, 2007, 02:11:02 PM
yeah, i dont know what that border is.  when i resized the scans from 600 dpi down to 300 dpi and then made them the right measurments for the site it did that... i have no idea why, or how to get rid of it.  for the genesis covers its not too bad, as they are mostly read anyway, but it looks bad for the 32x.  i tried to crop it, but it messed up the measurments, and then when i resized them it just put it back.  i'll try to mess with it and see if i can fix it so it doesnt do that from now on.
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: Ragnarok2103 on December 10, 2007, 07:31:49 PM

ok, i removed the borders and resized them to the correct dimensions. i reuploaded them, with the word 'borderless' in the name to denote them from the originals. i was resizing the canvas instead of the image, and thats why it added those borders.

I hope you resized them the correct way.... Always split the cover in a front, back and spine then work on them(or work on them before splitting).... But you have to resize the spine, front and back seperately!!!!!
After that you put them back together! If you won't do it that way the cover will not fit the case(spine will be off)....
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: Ragnarok2103 on December 11, 2007, 05:18:55 PM
... do i have to split them up? i have no idea how to work photoshop. i've essentially been working on trial and error. before i found this site in the summer i never even used it.  i just found out how to resize things.  how do i split them up, and put them back together? i have no idea how to use layers.   .... this is soo much friggin hassle. im trying to help this site out by uploading covers that arent on here, but everytime i do, i run into some issue that prevents me from helping out.  and i could upload them as raws and have someone else do the work, but damnit, i want to get some credit for all the hard work i am doing.  i bought a friggin 200 dollar scanner just so i could help. 
Is it absoulutley necessary to cut them up to resize them? cause i printed the cliffhanger cover, as a test, and it fits perfectly.  plus, most of these covers are the ones with the strips, and i dont want to screw it up any more.  if it is necessary, then i guess i'm gonna have to bumble my way through photoshop and hope that eventually i figure out what the heck to do. 

i dont mean to sound so pissy, i know that this site has strict standards that must be adhered to, it just makes this really difficult for a photoshop novice to contribute to this site, and thats what i really want to do.  so if someone could perhaps tell me how to do it, i will gladly cut it up if necessary.
again, i dont mean to sound pissy, i'm just a little frustrated.
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: Ragnarok2103 on December 11, 2007, 07:16:15 PM
ok, completley unedited, the spine is 293 px, the rear is 1531px, and the front is 1540px.  is that close enough, since they are sega spines, which are extremely broad to begin with, or do i have to cut them up? if i cut it up, i have a feeling it will screw up the lines.  but if you want me to, i wont upload anything else until i learn how to cut it up and resize each piece individually. i know its probably not that difficult, but i have no idea.
let me know.

You could upload the unresized cover as a raw and I'll do the finishing work.... I'll give you the credit no problem....
Besides the spine should be 294pixels and the front and back 1536 pixels on the finished cover.... So that is why you are lucky and your cliffhanger cover almost fits.... But as you said it would be nice to have the covers perfect fitting... It is not always the same... Some covers can be way more off then others.... Always depends on the scanning proccess...

I know it's hard for a photoshop noob by the way.... I started on this project without any knowledge of photoshop.... But you'll learn as time gos by.... :)

ok....so i spent the entire day, reading up on forums about photoshop, reading through tutorials, and messing around with it for about the last 5 hours or so, and i've figured out how to do it.  took a lot of trial and error, but at least now i can resize the front, the spine, and the rear seperately, to make sure that they are each the right dimensions.  so, i know your rather busy, so i'm gonna go through and make sure everything is resized properly, and then i'll upload all my covers myself.  thanks for the offer to do it, but hopefully i will be able to do them all myself.  thank.

Nice work on the covers, Grumbleduke. I only collect Japanese games myself so it's really nice to see someone making efforts to create some Japanese covers as well.

Here's my first submission... the Japanese version of Sonic & Knuckles.
http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/Jigsaw.retail.genesis_sonic_knuckles_jp.jpg

It took quite a lot of work, as I went to great lengths to make sure the quality was as high as possible. Many of the elements were edited heavily; others I recreated from scratch. Using all the different icons and logos and stuff I could probably whip up a decent template for custom Japanese MD covers, if there's any interest. If not, I may just make a few myself...

i looked at your cover and i am impressed by how sharp and clean everything is, good job.

...  :( ... then i checked the DPI to ind that it was only 96dpi.  Covers here need to be 300dpi.

Post by: Jigsaw on April 22, 2008, 10:39:55 AM
Huh?  ??? I know for a fact it was 300dpi when I was working on it, something must have happened when I saved it to JPG. Thanks for the heads-up, I'll take a look at it and resubmit it.

Nice, I'm looking forward to seeing them.

Personally I don't have much interest in making more MD covers -- S&K I want to get a UGC for, as it only came in a cardboard box, but for any other game I'd like to get the complete, original version. I'll definitely want to finish the MD template I mentioned before though, for anyone who might be interested, as well as making a custom cover or two myself...

Your template will be very welcome. :). UGC to MD case and vice-versa are pretty straightforward...mostly cleanups and resize the spine.Only problem i have is getting them flat enough for scanning.I have the insert on the scanner..Lylat wars BIG box next...16 MD cases in two columns on that..and all braced on the bottom of a shelf so tightly that im worried the scanner glass may break under the pressure, and STILL the edges of the spine show up!!!

Hello,

I hope I'm not infiltrating the wrong thread, but I just uploaded 20 new Genesis covers (NTSC-US, 400 dpi).  Some of them might be good enough to be uploaded straight to the genesis section, but I listed them all as raws.  I thought I'd mention it in a thread where people are so amazing at fixing up genesis covers.  I've wanted to thank you all for your hard work for so long, and I hope this can go part of a way towards expressing my gratitude.  Keep up the amazing work!

Great work as usual Grumbleduke. I was wondering, do you have any Japanese Puzzle games? I'm working on the template, and I want to create all those icons for genres and stuff, but I'm still missing a few and I have no scans on hand for them either. The icons I have done are:
1 Player
2 Players
Action Game
Shooting Game
Drive Game
Roleplay Game
Fighting Pad 6B
Memory Back Up

Puzzle is the only one I know exists that I still don't have, but I'm guessing there are a few more. Sports? Simulation? If you - or anyone else for that matter - have scans or is able to scan any covers that have the icons I'm missing, I'd be really grateful. I can't really finish the template without them.


service_gamer: That's great. More scans are always welcome. ;D

No,but i will take a look in town later,a couple of shops have Mega Drive titles for very little money so if i see one,i will pick it up and scan it.

@ Jigsaw

OK, ihave the JP version of Klax which is no good at all cos its a Namcot release and has no icons. :(
BUT i have Columns 3 and that does have the icons i beleive.Unfortunatley,its at my Brothers in London so if you can wait a few days and dont find another source, i will bring it home again and scan it.(will do that anyway for the site)

Great, thanks. I've got "Sports" taken care of too, and I'll be recreating the icon for Modem compatibility as well. Other than that I'd like to include a bunch of different companies' logos as well, but that shouldn't be very difficult. I'm still working on the template (and a custom cover while I'm at it)... I still have quite a few things I want to finish before feeling done with the template but the custom cover in question is almost finished. Hopefully I should be able to upload it within the next couple of days.

T.Y Seb  :) . I've been pretty busy at home this weekend and as these are mostly clean and resize,im fitting them in between 'chores'. Got quite a few to go which could be a good thing or bad depending on how you feel about it. ;) Shenske normally takes care of the Neo Geo stuff B.T.W.

I initially thought that was intentional,especially as i had this from new and it had never had the chance to get faded (boxed away for many years). However i have cleaned up the spine a little and put it through imandix again. The way imandix lights it makes it look a little strange to me also. However i will tweak it some before i post it and see how it turns out.

Yes, i'll have a crack at it. BUT unless you can scan the front pic if its not to damaged,or someone on here has a copy they can scan,it would have to be more or less custom everything. Im ok with that if you are. :)

All my Mega Drive and Master System covers were uploaded in the original dimensions. Checking through a couple just now though shows they are listed as UGCs. Someone might want to check the sizes once downloaded unless they were changed to UGC by admins prior to uploading.

Perhaps they have been resized...i would have thought someone would say by now if they did not fit a UGC.Mind you..resizing euro MD cases is nasty.The 'grid' look of them means a stretch or squash icomes out odd looking.

@Sheep2001
I knocked up an imandix MD template and tried them in that and they look ok so they should print out the right size...i have UGC's incase the MD size inserts are no good for the site.

No probs...Yes,i will get the template in a working order that someone other than me would get.Nothing is in folders and nothing is renamed and its full of layers i scrapped but didnt' delete. ;D I will tidy it up and try to make it work as both a UGC and original MD template cos' resizing from a UGC(as i discovered) is a cow! ;)

If you can figure out the right dimensions for a retail Genesis/Mega Drive case then it would be definitley a welcomed addition to new new and improved templates section.

As many know getting UGCs in Europe is a bitch while you can easily buy some Mega Drive sports games off ebay for dirt-cheap. I personally have just one MD game without a cover still I'd like to have all the games in thier original cases. I guess same goes for people with more loose games.

Also your black Mega Drive template should really be hosted here. I might be mistaken but I think as for Mega Drive we only have Shenske's blue version for the newer Mega Drive games but no classic black.

yup - i'm all for rehoming my uncased games into real MD cases.........and also my master system games.........if only there was a decent template for that........ 8)

plus sometimes i merely want to repair a damaged cover - so that'll be going back into a real case too

Good news then.The black MD UGC template is almost ready to go and im working on the same thing but for actual MD cases.And yup..i picked up FIFA 95 locally for 95p!! Now its going to donate its case to Desert Strike ;D.So MD cases are pretty cheap.

just let me know when you have it finished and i'll put up on the "template" page.

Are you really sure MD cases are that easy to obtain....

Yes you can get cheap games to donate their cases BUT the almost always look like shit due to age showing it's signs.... UGCs on the other hand come factory new so I personally(although I'm all for keeping stuff in it's original case) think UGCs look way better.....

Besides if every game is made for UGC and MDCases this doubles the amount of covers which need to be posted.... Guess who's job this section is....

Anyway.... Everyone should do as he please....

It would be insane to redo all covers for both cases. The focus is still on the UGCs but it would be nice to have a template sized for a retail Genesis/Mega Drive case. Think of the people that have a complete collection, all games in their respective cases but they're missing two or three covers. These people (I am one of them ;) ) would rather buy a shitty game to use the case instead of trying to get a hold of a handful of UGCs, or even recase them all in UGCs for uniformity's sake.

Everyone can use the template he likes but I thought the template for a retail Genesis case would be more used on a request basis while the standard for new Genesis covers would be the UGC template.

Once both templates are here it would be pretty easy to change a certain cover from one template to the other if requested.

I believe that posting the template here and then using it on a request basis is probably the best idea. The only problem i see is where to put the finished covers if they not hosted here. They could stay in the uploads section and deleted after time,or maybe a storage folder just for MD cases (like the raws folder).

Sonic The Hedgehog 2

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/sonthumb.jpg)

We allready had 5 versions of this....but not the Japanese version! ;) Actually was the cover from the Asian version. It was identicle to the JP version except it had a Star with 'Asian Version' written in it just above Tails' ear. I painted that out cos'although JP versions of covers are not that popular,takers for an Asian version would be almost non-existant. Got it because at that time, i had an unmodified MD and Asian versions of games were region free. Has a full JP style MD manual that is entirely in english too.

I think the Engine version is considered more "arcade perfect" than the MD version,but i haven't seen that one so i cant be sure exactle why.Same as Forgotten Worlds...MD had parallax and was 2 player but had 2 levels missing.PCE was single scroll,only one player,but had all the levels so was considered more Arcade like.Oh and yes, Atomic Robo-Kid is great fun (not to mention challenging!)

I never liked the original cover for this game, so while working on my Megadrive template I decided to make a custom cover as well...

(http://www.josefaxner.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/sf2_preview.jpg)

http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/Jigsaw.custom.genesis_street-fighter-ii+_jp.jpg

Some of the text on the back looks pretty awful, but I didn't have very good source material. I hope it's decent enough for printing, if not I guess I could try to go back and clean it up a little (to be honest I didn't realise it was quite as bad as it is until just now). I know the spine is a little boring too, but it's actually not that different from what a lot MD game spines look like. Anyway, I hope someone likes it, if not I'm happy to just use it myself.  ;D

There is a place for the template. Either PM Shenske a link to your template and he'll add it or put it in the templates folder on the ftp and add it yourself. And maybe PM Snowcone that he adds a "Genesis retail case" option or something like that to the admin menu so that your covers can be added.

I talked to Snowcone today and he added the Genesis case option to the admin panel. This means we can host covers with the actual dimensions for a retail Genesis case now and you or Shenske can put the template in the templates section as soon as you're ready.

Rolling Thunder 2

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/rt21.jpg)

Taken from a rather excellent scan provided by Tik (it could have gone straight in after a little resizing and trimming). All i really did was stick it in the MD template for an easy life. ;) (I will post it in your name if you like Tik...just let me know.)Made a version to fit in an actual MD case too.

Great covers as usual!

When you upload any covers for the retail Genesis cases then make sure you put that in the name (e.g. rollingthunder2genesiscase). Otherwise it would be possible that the one who checks the cover before adding it to the site thinks it has the wrong dimensions and resizes the cover for UGCs.

Rolling Thunder 2

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/rt23.jpg)

This scan (given to Jigsaw who posted it here,i believe) was not quite flat to the glass of the scanner,hence part of the back where the jp text is was a little blurry.I cleaned up and replaced as much of the unclear stuff as i could but have to admit that some of the dark characters are a still little indestinct. It would seem a shame not to post it though as it does tick another box (meaning only Genesis version would be needed). An admin can give it a look when i post it for real.

Strider

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/atridereu.jpg)

Front taken from Snowcone's US version on the site. Had the '8 meg' and Seal of approval labels on the front which is not present on the E.U release, so i cobbled a low res scan i found onto the Snowcone front and blended out as many of the nasty bits as i could. Then put it all on the MD template and re-typed the multi-language text on the back. Think i got away with it. ;)

Strider (custom)

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/stricust.jpg)

The Japanese front with all the text painted out. As i had done the E.U version, i thought a custom would be nice. They say variety is the spice of life... ;)

The overseas cover for Strider has to be one of my most hated MD covers... it has absolutely nothing to do with the game!! Coincidentally, the Japanese one is one of my absolute favourites. ;D

I like the custom PAL one but I think it could look better. With the original logo and stuff removed, the top of the cover looks very bare, while you can tell there's a lot being covered up by the template at the bottom. I think it would look a lot better if you just moved everything up an inch or so; Hiryu would be more in the center of the canvas, you'd see less of the empty blue sky, and you'd see more of the artwork at the bottom of the cover. All in all, great work.

Many thanks for some input and an excellent suggestion.Had about an inch left so i have slid Hiryu up a little and i agree it looks better.I also agree about the E.U/U.S Strider cover.Another 'classic' would be Shadow Dancer.I mean who came up with that idea for E.U/U.S ?

yeah, i know what you mean with ninja gaiden. it goes from being not too bad, and then suddenly every single enemy can hit you once for about half your health. and in the last two levels, you re-fight every single boss again. i got to the final boss with barely any life, and no health potions at all. i had to beat him without getting hit at all. not an easy task, took me about two hours to beat him...and that was on the easiest difficulty. damn you itagaki...why do you punish us with these hard games?

Nice work. I really love the art for the Japanese version of ESWAT.

Strider is awesome too, but I couldn't help feeling I'd like it better if you'd replace the artwork on the back with the art that's on the back of the Japanese one. Unless I'm mistaken you should be able to get a clean scan from the manual. :)

Thanks for the feedback, i will dig out the manual and take a look :). I am looking at converting Crackdown at the moment. Its not the greatest artwork but its about a billion times better than the E.U release original. Also, any MD guys know if Atomic Robo Kid had a E.U release? Cant find anything about it.

I think im starting to get obsessed with Strider ;). Added the JP background instead of the one i made up. Got 3 to pick from. Check them out Jigsaw (and anyone else who's interested), give me some feedback and i will narrow it down to one. Its entirely possible to mix and match any part of them BTW.

Strider (U.S custom 1)

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/striderusc.jpg)

I rather like the back on this.

Strider (U.S custom 2)

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/sus2.jpg)

With the JP style back. More in keeping with the front...

Strider (U.S custom 3)

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/sus3.jpg)

Thought 'what the hell' and stuck a piece of art i had in to see how it came out. And now to bed.

Number 2 and 3 both look terrific, and I definitely think both should be on the site. My one minor quibble with both is the Strider 2 sprite used for the bullet list on the back; it just looks odd and out of place to me. Also, with the 3rd one, I dunno if it's just perspective playing tricks, but it kind of looks like it's a bit off-center. Just make sure it looks nice and proper before you submit it. :)

Atomic Robo Kid does have a PAL version, I know I've seen it when I was a kid. I can't remember what it looks like, though.

I will take a look for a suitable bullet, although its hard to come up with one that looks ok! And the 3rd one did'nt look right with the fire column off centre, and i wanted to keep the image of Ton-Pooh in. Again, thanks for the feedback! :D

I say no bullet would be far better than the Hiryu sprite. I'm sure you'll come up with something decent anyway.

More work on Gunstar Heroes...

Gunstar Heroes (http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/Jigsaw.custom.genesis_gunstar-heroes-pal_eu.jpg) (PAL)
(http://www.josefaxner.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/preview-ghp.jpg)

Making the classic style PAL cover ended up being a bit more work than I expected; the Japanese boxart didn't fit as well as I'd hoped. Luckily, I got hold of some wallpapers from the PS2 version that I could use. It wasn't as high resolution as I would've liked, and some colours look a little funny, but IMO it's definitely good enough. It was a pain trying to work around the Mega Drive logo at the top of the cover though, no matter what I tried it ended up obscuring something. :/

(http://www.josefaxner.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/preview-ghp2.jpg)

Since I had some other wallpapers, I could use those to make a decent back for the later PAL style case. This is probably the version I'm the most happy with.

(http://www.josefaxner.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/preview-ghu2.jpg)

I wasn't happy with the way the logo looked on this cover, so I used the stuff from the PAL cover to make a touched up version of this. I also fixed a few other small things.

Depends on how accurate you want your cased games to be.... I for my part always download what's available so even if I got the PAL version and there is only a genesis version cover available I use the genesis cover as long as there is no other cover.... I replace it when someone or meself gets the PAL one up.... So it all depends on you...

I'm pretty sure the  blue covers were just part of  a re-branding and modernizing of the Mega Drive brand. I'm not 100% sure but I think the older style black grid type were phased out in 1993.

Unlike Nintendo, Sega sold their MD/Genesis-Games in many different cases. With the initial release of the Mega Drive the used the grid-style covers. With the re-released of the MDII they switched to the new blue bubble/steele(??) labels to reflect the now more modern design of the md.

Some blockbuster-games like the sonic titles were first released in the old format and in later production-runs in the new ones. The actual case were more or less the same, but the inner construction differs from game to game (like style of the catrigde-holder, clips for instructions etc). The most anoying thing IMHO was that some cases had f*** holder-clips on the top used to store/display them in shops.

Some major publishers (like EA or Hudsun) had their own case and catridge-design. EA-Cases were quite fragile and often get out of shape. At the end of the MD some games (e.g. Sonic & Knuckles) were even sold with those crappy paper-cases they later on used for the PAL-32x-Games.

If you want a uniform appearence, its really hard to collect Sega :) Good to know there are now alternatives here!

T.Y :). Dick Tracy's cartoonish appearence made it real easy to clean up. As for different types of MD covers, i normally convert all mine to the grid format as i have lots of that type allready so they match up better. I hope to re-cover all my Master System games in the same way as the grids on those varied in size...at least on the ones i have.

I am soooo looking forward to that day - and hope that your collection matches mine.  Alot of mine are now discoloured, and the different grid sizes really annoys me.

Definitley - Even some that were packed away in a box at my parents for years have gone brown and tatty.  I suppose it's due to it all being on a white background.....but even so.......................

Will be very happy when there's a template for original size to redo some - also need a standard DVD size one for a few sega cards that are unboxed at present.  I should stop being lazy and do it myself I guess  ;D

Ok...i know this is the wrong place for this really but the question of Master System covers was started here so here is one. Its more or less an identicle copy of the original resized for U.G.C and was made from a template that i have started to mess around with. The standard Master System Info is all in place but only for this type of case. There was a newer type made after the M.D was released so i want to incorperate that into the template plus all the tags etc,etc before i post it up here. I think the U.S versions are largely the same with a few copyright notices added so that should'nt be too much trouble. I want to keep this grid layout for all types though as i dont like the tighter layout that was used later on in the Master System's life and this one matches the MD grid so it should look a little better! :) Any feedback on the template idea would be nice.
(strangely, at no point on the cover does it mention Master System...and i promise i wont post M.S games in a M.D thread again) ;)

You are a god grum!!!  Exactly as I had  in mind.  And the same sentiments with regards to keeping 1 singular grid size.  The later releases also had an icon on the spine, which I'm not overly keen on (but can live with), and they also had Master System written on the spine in a HORRIBLE font, which, as you can tell, I'm also not keen on  ;D

I hate to butt in, but don't you need the actual case to figure out the dimensions? It's possible that he doesn't know. Or maybe he does and he doesn't feel like doing it. Either way, he needs the dimensions for the case.

Not sure - as i'm in europe and don't have access to any UGC's, and have never made or printed anything to UGC sizes.  I thought you had to split the image into 3, and resize front/back/spine to get correct proportions/sizes - which would affect how the grid pattern works.

Much easier to have a template at the right size to begin with, as that's the only type I would be personally working with.

Its slightly different but just enough to throw the grid out. :( I know this from experience as i converted the M.D template for actual M.D cases (mainly for my own use). Anyhow, i will get one up for M.S cases once i finish up the UGC version.

Well...in a word 'no'. Not everything is out due to lack of space. I convinced Mrs G. to let me have our small bedroom as a games room(i had to keep a bed in there though) which i racked out 3 of the 4 walls with shelving and cupoards/drawers containing nothing but pads and memory cards.. The other wall has the tv smack in the middle with all the consoles i can squeeze around it on shelves. Ive spent untold amounts of money so as any of the machines can be switched on and played with very little fuss. I HATE plugging scarts/component/vga cables in and out just to get a machine on. The downside to having the machines out is that i have to vacuum around them everyweek to keep them all dust free(and cover all of them when im away!). Even with all the shelves, only about half the stuff is out, the rest is boxed away in the loft. I have decided to change all the DVD style boxes to 9mm ones so as to create more space,starting with XBox. I will get the cam out at the weekend and try to take a few photos as it stands. It would help if i did'nt keep buying more stuff!!.

my office/games room is supposed to have everything set up and ready to go (i posted some pics a while ago)  waiting to get the new 52 inch sony for the lounge, so i can nab the 42 inch plasma for the office, will then get everything connected - fo me shouldn't be too bad, looking at around 12-15 consoles if i keep the wii/360 and ps3 in the lounge...............

Know what you mean about buying new stuff all the time - i go through little phases of acquiring tons of stuff for one console, and then move on.

Odd this in that the front , in particular the title is off centre. However the Genesis logo is central so it must be a design flaw. Or maybe they meant to do it.... :-\

Now you uploaded the Indiana Jones cover for the second time and still it is in a really strange resolution....

3142x1972 pixel....???? What case should that be for? It's very unfortunate beacause we haven't got those two covers on our site at the moment and I'd love to add them but if they're wrongly sized they're unusable....

Besides I also upload all your game gear covers at the moment at least those that were usable.... Unfortunately quite a few of them obviously came from low res scans and even vectormnagic can't fix everything(especially the backs looked pretty bad sometimes).... On a side not sheep you should always double check if your covers are correctly sized....

Thansk for your time sheep.... Especially good Game Gear covers are very welcome....
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: sheep2001 on September 13, 2008, 04:36:22 AM
they are sized for the original cases - much like a raw scan would be - i'll see if i can find the time to drop them into UGC template.

With regards to the GG stuff - it's REALLY hard finding some decent usable stuff on the net, and since all mine are cart only i've not been left much option.  Thought it was worth upping them as there were so few around here to begin with, but i understand if they don't get added.  Not meaning to double your workload Tik  8)

I know what you mean regarding GG covers.... The ones I made available are really good the others aren't unfortunately.... It's just much work to double check each cover if it is really high res or just scaled up....

The Rocket Knight Adv. for UGC seems to be the right resolution but it is only 800kB in size.... Could it be that you saved it in photoshop with a low quality level(make sure to always save it at level 12)....?

Sonic Spinball (JP)

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/spinjp.jpg)

Hmmm. This is going to need to be looked at. The original idea was to take an average to poor scan that i found somewhwere and fit it into the PAL template as a custom. Sonic was nice and big on the front so it came out ok. Then dmc1974 expressed an interest in the JP version so i looked around and found one over at Zonesega that appeared to be the one i had, but with their logo removed. So, as there was no other versions to be found, ive attempted to clean it up and redo as much of the stuff that looked crap as possible. All of the text has been redone or cleaned in some way as have all the icons and logos. Its still not great but as there is no other option (less someone has it and wants to donate a scan),i have uploaded it and if anyone wants it,grab it  a.s.a.p in case it gets scrubbed. :)

and the E.U custom is in down in the uploads too.

Quality wise it would be ok sheep but it's just not accurate enough sorry.....

Wrong barcode, wrong legal text on the back, it's 1 player only.... You know even if it's a custom cover some things should be accurate.... I haven't got the time to fix it so when you find time go over your two covers again and check for the aforementioned stuff... If it's all finished and as it should be there'll be no problem to upload those covers....

First of all; Welcome to the project! :)

Those 2 covers look great, except for a couple of minor fixable things. You might want to replace the megadrive logo in the front with a better quality one. The edges on the one you used are too rough. Also the game title on Megaman is a bit rough (not really a big deal).. maybe some minor touch ups will make it look a bit better.
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: DaveGeorge on September 18, 2008, 08:00:30 PM
Thanks for the input. I'll try to fix it when I have the time. The roughness on the mega drive logo comes straight from the template though, maybe there's a better one for download?

Like it on the CD32 more, although that version is technically inferior. Brings back memories of disk swapping and pushing up on the stick/pad to jump cos' for the most part, the games only supported one fire button. Oh, and the noisy disk drive that could give a Dreamcast a run for its money.

Thunder Force III (PAL..ish)

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/tf3.jpg)

Ok..i checked and found that the U.S version runs fine on an unmodified Megadrive so i changed the normal PAL back to reflect it. Multi-language is a problem as i dont speak anything other than English and basic French and as online translators are'nt great for this kind of thing..we had to go for English only, so it looks a little different on the back. Spine etc should match your other TF games though. Let me know if you want anything changed and i will do before uploading. Painting out the TF logo from th front was fun B.T.W (not)  ;)

TMNT Tournament Fighters (PAL/UK?)

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/tmnttf.jpg)

Three reasons for this...one, i dont have the original cover. Two, from looking around at the almost non existent scans for the PAL version..i dont like the way it 'Konami's' the old MD case. And three, the JP art looks nicer (to me anyway). But as i couldnt find a readable scan for the PAL MD, had to use all english text transcribed from the US one. So if anyone has a PAL one they could scan, that would be great...otherwise it stays like this. :)

As there are no usable scans to be found for any version of this,had to do a custom. Taken from arcade version flyer and a picture of Hong Kong at night, its made to look similar to the U.S/PAL versions. If anyone has a scan of any version(though i have asked before),i would appreciate it. :)

Fixin' to sell a bunch of Genesis games that I don't care for, and two of 'em have covers that aren't on the site already. So, here ya go. They're of a different dimension than most Genesis games because EA did that with most their games, for some reason.

Feel free to clean these up if you want, I only did a few minor ones and I don't really care for them enough to do more than that. Only football game I want for the Genesis is Mutant League.

OR Number 2

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/axe1.jpg)

Two options for the front. Data for the back is a bit difficult to find so its padded out with some character bios. Changed the title font a bit to make it stand out better (and painted it out of the main picture).

@Kogami

Which front do you prefer, 1 or 2. And any changes required, let me know. :)

Here's my attempt at a Sonic & Knuckles cover "reconstruction." I basically wanted something that would look good in an official Sega case, and match my other games (the game originally came in a crappy cardboard box, as many of you know). Basically, my goal was "Sonic & Knuckles as it should have been."

Im going to leave this one for the site as i quite like the logo this way. Here is a link with 2 other versions, one with the logo from the U.S version that i cleaned as best i could but isnt that great. The other is a version of that logo done with the closest font i could find to match it. Both have the writing removed from the rear. Hope thats ok for you. :)

I posted many of your covers yesterday grumble....

Nice work as always.... I got one little problem though... I don't really know what to do with Golden Axe 3 - PAL and Splatterhouse 3 - PAL... You know those were never released in PAL territories and I'm not sure if we should host them... Could end like those Secret of Mana 2 PAL Versions which are sold on Ebay.... Like

"Golden Axe 3 - Ultra Rare PAL version - With original cover and box.... Manual missing....." etc....

Hmmmm... What do you think about this....?

To be honest, i really only did them as a request for Kogami, and was not totally happy with them anyway because of the lack of multi language on the back. Probably best to not host them here just in case.  :)

Take on a variety of shadowruns including : Cleaning up streets, jacking into the
Matrix for a big time cyber-heist or pulling of a risky ‘Corperate Extraction’.
Stalk the cities in real time combat and glide through the virtual battlefield of the

Shadowrun is almost finished. If you can translate this to french, that would be very helpful. :)

Slip into the shadows for the ultimate adventure!. The year is 2050 and the
megacorps rule by the power of information. Everyone is on file in the global
main-frame...everyone but you and a handful of  ‘invisible’ outlaws called
shadowrunners. Move through the grim and magical realities of futuristic
Seatlle and uncover a diabolical plot that could destroy the world.

Krusty's Super Fun House (PAL)

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/ksf.jpg)

The original version. Normally rebuild these but this is just a scan of the cover cleaned and resized for UGC.

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/ksfc.jpg)

and this one is a custom rebuild to match the standard MD case and hopefully look nicer on the shelf. Moving the text from above Krusty's head to the standard position was .......interesting! ;) (mainly cos' it reveiled Sideshow Bobs previously unseen face)

Was my doing.... The problem is that it's very difficult to distinguish between US covers and brazilian covers... You know brazilians have this crazy PAL-M thingy(PAL with 29,97fps) and therefore it is easy th convert from NTSC games to their PAL.... I suppose because of that it could be that they got the "US-Versions" box etc. but nevertheless they should be labeled PAL and Brazilian....

As I said though it's difficult to differentiate so it could be US as well and I have to trust the poster on these covers cause it's almost impossible to find the real Brazilian cover online and compare it....

Mercs (U.S)

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/mercsus.jpg)

Not an exact copy..some small compromises were made, mainly in that the art for the U.S was slightly different than the E.U one. But thats all i have to work with unless someone has a decent scan they can post. Also not sure about the spines as i cant find any shots to go with, so im sticking to the same design for each.

Got around to make some more covers....

It's real nice to make some covers myself again....

1. Phantasy Star 4 - EU - Retail

(http://img512.imageshack.us/img512/3396/ps4ko6.jpg)

Was very nice to create using shenskes template....

2. Cosmic Spacehead - US - Retail

(http://img71.imageshack.us/img71/2334/cosmicja7.jpg)

This cover on the other hand was propably the most time consuming cover I ever did(taking into aucount that I used a template)....
It's based on a heavily modified version of shenskes US Genesis template.... I dunno why but Codemasters decided that they wanted to make a cover like no other for CS.... Almost everything is not like on a normal US Genesis cover on this one.... *sigh*

Great game nonetheless which did deserve to get covering...

Hope you like them...

With the blue EU Template what font are you using for the "1 or 2 Players" part in the top left corner on the back?
I couldn't find a suitable font, i'd like to add it to the template.

As I'm no real artist but just a "worker" ;D I always copy, clean, sharpen and paste the player info from the original cover scan....

From Vicman's list :

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/wizzy.jpg)

Built from the PAL version, has only a couple of minor things i had to alter:

1-The font on the back...could'nt match it anywhere.This is as close as i could get.
2- Moved 'Psygnosis' on the front down a little, was half way across the green island making it difficult to read...strange choice.
3-I removed the part number from the spine as it seems most Genesis titles in the red boxes did'nt have it so it matches better without.

Chakan (NTSC/U.S)

All this started because i wanted to cover my unboxed Game Gear cart. Fixed up a so-so scan of the Megadrive version front for the GG UGC and DS case version, then thought i might as well do a Megadrive version as i had typed all the multi languages in. And as its not a huge stretch to convert to the Genesis version, i did that too. They are more or less as the originals, except i moved the barcode on the Genesis one from the spine to the back as it looked a bit crappy there (i thought so anyway).  Not going to do a GG U.S version though...nothing to work with. ;)

There's something to be said for the JP versions of just about all covers for all systems. Nice work. I was thinking about knocking up some cart stickers for the custom MD covers. Then i thought that if we were to reproduce the manual front with the custom art, we would have a total conversion (after a little work re-stapling it). Only issue with that might be people selling them on the bay as RARE versions. ;) And if you dont want to make a U.S version of this, i will have a crack at it as i have a sort of old style template.

Knock yourself out - if you need them 600dpi scans of the Japanese cover should still be available in the RAW scans section, I think. I was thinking of making a US version myself but I'm not sure when I'll have the time to get around to it, and furthermore without the US retail cover to build it off of it's probably a little more work than I'd like putting into it.

Had some time the last week and did a little cover making spree.... ;)

There you go:

Phantasy Star 2 - EU:
(http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/1586/phantasystar2.jpg) (http://img156.imageshack.us/my.php?image=phantasystar2.jpg)

Do I have to say anything about this game series....? Loved every part of them except the first which I never played unfortunately(never had a Master System)....

DJ Boy - EU:
(http://img256.imageshack.us/img256/1036/djboyw.jpg) (http://img256.imageshack.us/my.php?image=djboyw.jpg)

I actually never played this one.... Looks like a kind of weird platformer....

Exile - US:
(http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/7896/exile.jpg) (http://img208.imageshack.us/my.php?image=exile.jpg)

A great RPG like game unfortunately never released in EU.... Is a port of a PCE game(I suppose the PCE version is superior).... The front of my cover was pretty sunburned but I tried to make the best of it because this game deserves to be on our site....

Super Hydlide - EU:
(http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/5011/hydlide.jpg) (http://img13.imageshack.us/my.php?image=hydlide.jpg)

I don't know why but I absolutely loved this game when I was young... Hard as hell and difficult to handle(bad bad gameplay mechanics ;D ) but nevertheless I played this game for months...

Fatal Labyrinth - EU:
(http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/8861/labyrinthe.jpg) (http://img13.imageshack.us/my.php?image=labyrinthe.jpg)

Another great Mega Drive game(or so they say)..... I think I played this in the past but I'm not sure.... ;D

McDonalds Treasure Land Adventure - EU:
(http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/2756/mcdonaldsh.jpg) (http://img155.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mcdonaldsh.jpg)

Pretty decent platformer if you take into account that this game was endorsed by the devil.... ;)

Have fun!

They just fly off the screen in the direction you whack them in. Maybe explosions were to harrowing for us Westerners. ;) This game (along with many others) has a major irritation in that when you die, you dont get to see your score.

It's also the best on the SNES. I liked World Cup Italia 90 on MD but that could be because that's when Germany became World Champion for the third time :D

Grumbleduke I have to ask another favor. Could you make a SNES version in Shenke's vertical NTSC template with that front? Dante_ali made a cover from my box scan but unfortunately it has that big "RAN" sticker on the front which I couldn't peel off without destroying the front.

I have the PAL version of Psycho Pinball (the 2nd best pinball after Epic Pinball). Im missing the cardboard sleeve that was wrapped around the cover but I have the insert. Only downside is I don't know when I can get around to scanning it since my all in one printer/scanner/copy machine crapped out on me a few months ago :(
I do try to scan it though, for taking my ALIEN³ request alone. But unfortunately I can't give you a time table.

What Micro Machines title do you have?  I have Turbo Tournament and Military but I was trying to get the others as well. I'm browsing eBay every day so I could be on the look out for a complete version of your Micro Machines. Should be cheap anyway.

The one on the Double Hit cart is just plain ol' Micro Machines. It was the first version released for MD. I have'nt even started to think about casing my uncased MD carts yet so there is no hurry for the scan, but it would be nice at some time. :)

The "Bloodlines" artwork is truly hideous, but you did an excellent job of cleaning it up and putting it on the PAL box, Grumbleduke. :)

I recently got access to a scanner, so I'm in the midst of scanning my collection. Among other things I should be able to submit 20 or so new Japanese MD covers (and I want to do some custom US/PAL ones too). Hopefully I should be able to start posting stuff in the next few days or so.

I don't know exactly cause the Xyron sticker machines are US only I think(I always print my labels on wine bottle etiquettes ;) ).... Afaik those stickers you can make with the Xyron 250 machine can be up to 6,3cm wide and as long as you want.... For labels I would always choose Xyron 250 stickers in the admin field nothing else fits anyway.... :)

Castlevania The New Generation (Label Experiment)

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/megalab.jpg)

Ok.. i know MD carts are not square but Imandix only deals in squares. ;) Its just a mock up to see how a label would come out anyway. I was going to convert the manual front too but as its bigger than A4, it seems a little bit too much trouble. Anyhow, if we think custom labels to suit custom covers are  a go, i will post it up. It fits a cart perfectly BTW...i tested it (but is there a fixed label size cos MD labels are smaller than N64 Xyrons we allready have and im a little fuzzy on the whole label thing.)

Empire of Steel and Cadash are not sunfaded they simply are not that vibrant... I suppose so at least cause I bought them from people which surely wouldn't let their covers get sunburned(other collectors which bought them new)....

Battletoads was really really fucked up and I allready restored it to a state which I never thought I could achieve.... Cover was torn with stickers on it and sunburned to a degree where the colors were butt-ugly-faded.... Unfortunately I wasn't able to rescue more color otherwise it always looked very edited and unnatural.... I agree although I'm not entirely satisfied with the Battletoads cover as well but it will have to do unless someone else can provide a better scan....

Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: Jigsaw on June 16, 2009, 06:09:49 PM
tiktektak: I'm not sure what exactly you mean by "doing it manually", but the commands you're going to want to use are:
"Levels" (Ctrl+L)
"Hue/Saturation" (Ctrl+U)
"Color Balance" (Ctrl+B)
If you need to separate blacks from dark colours without disrupting the overall look of the picture, "Curves" (Ctrl+M) can also come in handy.

Adjusting the levels of the RGB channel will enable you to improve contrast in an image (also making the picture more saturated in the process), but you should also do it individually for the Red, Green and Blue channels as it's a good way to control the colour tint as you are adjusting the contrast. Certain colour imperfections may not jump out at you, but can become more apparent as you fiddle with the sliders.

Again, with the Hue/Saturation setting, the important part is tweaking the different parts of the colour spectrum individually. Especially with sun faded pictures like this one different colours will be affected in different ways, so you have to fix them individually to get a good result. There's no secret trick to it, really, just go through the colours, one at a time, and adjust the hue, saturation and lightness of each until you're happy. You'll probably going to have to go back and forth between the colours as you go, but it's not difficult to get the hang of.

Colour Balance can be a little bit trickier to use, but it's not always so important. Sometimes it can alleviate issues more easily than hue/saturation adjustments though, so it's definitely something you should play around with. It's not always entirely obvious how you should tweak the picture, so again, just experiment until you start to get decent results.

I usually don't use Curves all that much, it's a little unwieldy, and usually you're not going to benefit from it much. Sometimes it can be useful though, so you should know it's there. The times you are going to need it the most are if you have a really messed up scan where, for example, dark greys are darker than blacks, in which case you can adjust the curves to set things straight. It can be useful in more "normal" situations too, though, as it can give you a bit more control over the contrast than with Levels.


Here's an example of how the above techniques can help you...

The picture could still do with some additional touchups, but my point is that even a scan as poor as that is not beyond salvation. ;)

Thanks for all the input jigsaw.... I always tried to use "Levels" and "Hue/Saturation" that's what I meant by doing it manually.... A friend once told my you can write some kind of batch scripts to make color corrections automatic(don't ask me how I'm just a ps-amateur ;D )...

My peroblem is I always play around with those settings and paly around and around but after all I'm never satisified with the output and then change it back to the original state.... Maybe I'll try and work a little more with the color stuff... I suppose you got pretty much experience with photoshop because I never managed to get such natural yet stronger colors when playing around....
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: Jigsaw on June 17, 2009, 05:11:43 AM
Well yeah, it comes with experience I suppose... I've been using PS for probably about 15 years or so, so a lot of it comes naturally to me, but it's still hard to describe the process beyond "fiddle with this and that until it turns out good". I'm not sure how helpful batch scripts would be; maybe you get a simple way of improving contrast and tone down blue hues from sun faded images, but ultimately each picture is going to need its own "treatment", so you're better off learning how to do it properly.

One thing you can try is using Adjustment Layers... that way you can sort of go back and forth, changing the intensity of the changes you do, see what works and what doesn't, without risking messing the picture up.

Side Pocket (PAL/E.U)

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/sidepocket.jpg)

I had not seen a boxed version of this for yonks but on a recent work trip, i came across a shop with it in. The front and spine were seriously sun damaged so i worked on it for quite a while and got back as much colour as i could. Strange choice of garish yellow'greens on the logo but that was how the original was so...

Batman (NTSCJ)

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/batmanmeggyd.jpg)

Well...i have had this unboxed for ages and have scoured the net many times for some sort of scan of the JP version. The only one i could find was on gamefaqs so as you can imagine, its very low res. Being as the front was just a piccie of the Batman symbol and was a tad dull, i remade that and set about rebuilding the back as best i could (i did not want to do it in English). I think it came out OK though some of the JP text is a little indistinct. With a bit of luck, someone may come up with an actual scan one day but until then, this will have to do(for me anyway  ;)).

Nice work on the Batman cover, Grumble. I like the custom front. I'm not sure if you're aware, but Sunsoft's MD releases in Japan came in their own kind of boxes; they open "backwards" (IE with the front towards you the spine is on the right), and they are much smaller than regular MD cases... comparable to Famicom cases I'd say, just barely bigger than the cartridge itself. To make a long story short, custom covers might be the way to go for all Sunsoft covers, whether you have good scans of them or not.

No, i was'nt aware of that at all. So was the case similar in dimension but smaller?

Yes, they has similar proportions, but they're about half the size of normal MD cases. Here are some pictures that might give you a clearer idea.

I see. That explains why the Batman cover i used as a guide fit into the template so well. I found a copy of Super Kick Off for Master System in town today for £1 so it became a donor case. I reszed down from the UGC version and it came out quite well. Mrs G could'nt pick it out from the rest of my JP MD stuff anyway. ;)

My big problem is that the front of my cover is pretty washed out/sunfaded....

Has anyone got a better cover maybe which I can work with(grumbleduke? ;D )?

Guess what. I found a Genesis copy of this in my local shop this afternoon Tik, so although you allready posted it, i can scan my version which is in pretty good condition if your still interested.

StarGate (PAL/E.U)

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/stargate.jpg)

So i dont have a box for this and there was nothing of the original around that was useable. I ended up with a custom front and re-building the back from scratch. That is more or less 'as is'. Mind you, i REALLY hate Acclaim's E.U case backs, far to much writing in far to small a space. Sufficiant art work was around for a second custom too...

Hmmm, well its not a stellar release. If you have played Alien 3/Terminator/Demolition Man, its very similar in principle. Graphs are quite well animated and the story is 'related' to the movie...ok if its cheap enough but i would'nt break the bank. Check out a youtube video. I love the movie but dont really follow the series that much. Might give this Stargate Universe a look when it starts though.

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/phan1.jpg)

I have had this on the shelf unboxed for ages and decided to try and come up with something for it. Trouble is that scans for the E.U version and U.S for that matter are rarer than chickens teeth. So this one bears a similarity to the original but the text is all english (taken from a SNES box) as my translation skills are almost zero. Should i get the chance to redo it in multi language and with the right legals (barcode is right but the rest are from the SNES version and me putting 2 and 2 together), i will. Fronts are from a Marvel comic and a free poster given with something and were the only useable pictures i could find. Ah well...at least its SOMETHING to cover it with. ;)
B.T.W this is a really good game, definitley worth tracking down IMHO.

Where there even any Platformers on the MD noit challenging(or even unfair)?

I always have to think of Fantasia when talking about tough as nail games.... This game was not just tough it was mind crushing(or rather controller crushing).... ;D

Hi guys!
I know some templates are still down, and can wait no problem for that.
But it would be pretty nice if someone could upload the MegaDrive 1 (pal) template (some temporary file sharing site like megaupload or rapidshare)!
I bought some cartridge only games (like ToeJam&Earl) and wanted to adapt some NTSC/US boxes for pal version!
Thanks anyway ;)
Keep up the good work guys!

First time really doing any cover, scanned this myself, used vector magic to clean it up slightly. Don't even know if there is a PAL release for this but I felt like doing it. Criticism is welcome! P.S., on the PAL cover I had to use extra screen shots and retype up the back. Good amount of work on the front as well.
EDIT: Wasn't released outside of NA, oh well I had fun doing it.

All our covers for retrogames are made for UGCs.....

Whats the difference in size? are the UGCs larger than Genesis cases all around, or at least deeper to make fitting Sonic & Knuckles easy?

I think UGC's are a touch deeper than MD cases. Just re-sizing the stuff hosted here to MD case size (3165 x 1987) works fine most of the time for me.

Does anybody happen to own Gargoyles or Turrican (not Mega Turrican)? I just bought them and they came in cardboard boxes. I would ike to put them in spare Mega Drive/Genesis cases, the problem is, scanning the Turrican box is not an option. In order to flatten it you would have to destroy it as it's not a SNES like box but rather like an old PC game boxes. The Gagoyles box is easily foldable, problem is, it's really beat up and I'm quite sure the scanning result would be a waste of time.
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: shenske on January 21, 2010, 02:41:48 PM
Would it be possible to scan the front and back of the Turrican box? You wouldn't really have to flatten it because it would likely end up in a template where a scan of the spine is kind of unnecessary.
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: KaiserWAVE on January 21, 2010, 03:03:28 PM
Actually I can't. I have a crappy all in one printer/copier/scanner and the lamp in the scanner, or whatever it is called, is broken, which basically leaves me with just a sub-par printer. To be honest, the retail cover for turrican is butt-ugly and I don't like it at all :) I just thought that maybe someone here has it and could scan it or make a cover for it which would have been the easiest way to get the cover. If nobody has it, I might as well make a post and request a custom, as there's tons of great Turrican art on the net.

EDIT:

this is the retail box, the best scan I could find. This is not meant to provide a scan, I don't think it's usable. Just to show how hideous the cover is. And it's not even a joke like the Mega Man 9 "retail" cover, I think they really meant it :D

That's a good question, I didn't try it :)
If it doesn't then I'll give it the Sonic & Knuckles treatment, meaning cutting all the plastic holders inside the box, place the game in the middle and fill in the gaps with foam so that it won't rattle around :)

Well...here's a possibility. Took the original Amiga front as i thought it was a nice image. Put it in a MD skin although Ballisitc carts were region free i believe.

OK. Front is a Moby scan cleaned and filtered and all text retyped. Back is pretty similar to the original one but i could'nt get the original pic or anything similar to it, so i used a little 'artisitic license'. ;) It will probably do until a good original scan turns up. If you like, i will post em up tomorrow when i upload some of the other stuff from the queue (gotta go through it yet).

Post by: KaiserWAVE on January 23, 2010, 10:35:26 AM
Thanks buddy, I love them.  It's very much appreciated! When you get around to add them, would you mind doing a Turrican cover with the black/grid template. That way it will stand out more from the Mega Turrican box and it suits the art better. If not. no worries, the fact you put your time into making these covers is more than enough.

On a side note, the following games are the only ones I still need to finish my personal perfect Mega Drive set. Does any of these come in cardboard boxes? If so keep that in mind for future requests :D

1)       Mega Probotector (aka Contra Hard Corps)

I remember it being pretty good but it sorely missed the astonishing soundtrack from the Amiga version. Used to load that up just to listen to the intro music...the good old days eh!!

Quick Question, not related to the previous posts...

Does anybody here have the game Earnest Evans? It's on Mega Drive/Genesis as well as on Mega CD/Sega CD.

I was "retro shopping" at eBay and the shop I was browsing had the game Earnest Evans. I never heard of it so I checked some youtube videos. It looked kinda decent but a little awkward. The soundtrack is awesome though, so I bought it. It was cheap anyway ;) My question is, has the game anything else going for it than a rocking soundtrack or is that its only quality?

After some research I learned that Earnest Evans is the first game of a trilogy with the 2nd part in the series being "El Viento" and the 3rd entry "Annet Futatabi". The third one is a Japan-exclusive Mega CD/Sega CD game though. The games seem to heaviliy borrow from other games like Castlevania or Shinobi, they look just ok but the soundtracks are really awesome.

I have a JP MCD version. I actually quite like it although i can see why most people dont. Earnest is animated in a similar way to those 'Gunstar Heroes' bosses (in segments) so he looks pretty odd at times and his animation gets in the way a little. The game plays llike Castlevania but not half as good. On the plus side, if you have the CD version coming, the music is excellent and it has the usual MCD/Anime intro. I bought mine very cheaply some time ago as it was in top condition and had the spinecard with it. I read up and was'nt expecting much, but it was better than i thought. Maybe it will surprise you...but expect it not to. ;)

Well done to Time Warner for using minute white text on a red backround so as to make the back all but illegible! Brightened up the text and dulled down the red to try and let it stand out a bit more.

Sylvester & Tweety in Cagey Capers
Found this scan in the raws section (scanned by EagleEye). Vector Magic cleaned it up nice, only had to touch up a few things. This is the european cover.

I just took a look at the cover and have to say that in my opinion vectormagic has destroyed this cover.

The screenshots on the back are pretty damaged, the text on the back is barely readable as is the legal info too.

VM would have been good for the front maybe but even there you have grayish dots everywhere...

I suppose a classical cleaning of a high res raw would look much much better on this cover.

Just updating some of my Templates and the Genesis one is first on my list:

(http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m96/ryanmichaelpotter/template_segagenesis2.png)

This new version uses 100% vector based images converted for PSD use. Anyone interested will notice a new Sega Seal

New Genesis logo

and a redrawn Player #logo
 (http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m96/ryanmichaelpotter/players.png)
these are recreations of the originals.

Also there are 2 versions of the spine.. original and a modification of my design, the original design is new to this template. Other than that I re-sized a few things to make them more in line with the original box art.

Please feel free to critique it, if there is something I should add or change about it now s the time to mention it. I am very sure the quality of the template is by far the best Genesis Striped on the site.

Hey guys, here's my newest, hope you like it.

I was thinking of taking the cover from this game and applying it to a SNES vertical template, however they are different games. 

I am a purist so I was considering scanning the cartridge label of the SNES version at a really high quality (2400 dpi) and trying to make a cover similar to what the retail scan would look like.

Or should I just take the genesis version, apply the SNES vertical template and be done with it?

Thoughts?

Here's a couple of EA Sports games [and a Sportsmaster one]. I initially tried fitting them into Grumbleduke's Mega Drive template [I think it's his template, the grid one] but I couldn't be bothered spending too much time on the backs, so I've just cleaned up the retail cover and fit it to a UGC.
I'd like to clean Brian Lara Cricket up even more, by getting rid of the OFLC 'G' on the front, fixing the spine image, and removing the barcode sticker on the back, but I couldn't find another scan to use to do so.

Not bad BadChad. Sorry for the pun. The only problem with this cover is that your scanner seems to be pretty crappy. There are lines all over the cover and the whole scan looks pretty grainy.

I fixed it up the best I could but bad source material is bad source material.

I havent really tweaked any of my scanner setting other than setting it to scan at 300dpi so Ill see what I can do to get better scans in the future. Thanks for the touch up. Like I said, I have photoshop but I havent really played around with it yet so I figured I could at least get this cover up since it was pretty good just the way it is.

Responding to a request, it's the cover all Genny owners have been waiting for (at least one owner anyway  ;)). Total rebuild including the white quality logo, the TRECO logo and the 'ARK' title (that's a bit that differs slightly from the original). It would have been easy but for those logo's....

Jurassic Park Rampage Edition!  My custom cover for this game.  All the text is the same as the NTSC version and the front cover is almost identical, the only changes are the background image on the back, screen shots and slightly different text font.  All copyright and licensing info is the same.  Do note that this game did not have a barcode printed on the back as it was one of the later cardboard box releases and the barcode would've been a sticker placed over the shrink wrap. 

Again, feedback is highly appreciated.  TIA

When I wanted to print out the Castlevania Bloodlines cover today it really bugged me that the retail version we have on our site is from long ago when quality restrictions weren't especially strict.

Such a great game deserves a real thorough cover treatment! ;D

So I went ahead and rebuilt the whole cover from my own personal scans...

I will replace our current version with this and change the artists name to mine because as I said I did a complete rebuild from my own source. Did cost me a few hours because I really tried to make it look nice.

Have fun:

Alien Soldier (PAL/E.U/Retail)

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t289/Grumbleduke/aliensoldier.jpg)

An E.U and JP only release, this is one of Treasures best efforts IMHO. Its pretty rare (£90-£100/$138-$150/€103-€115 type rare) nowadays. Making one for UGC seems a bit of a waste as its mostly us Euros that own it and not too many of us use UGC, and sizing it to MD case is also a little pointless as anyone who has the cart almost certainly has the box and does'nt need an insert. Still, i was making it for my own benefit as i have an Ozisoft version i picked up on my travels many years ago and it was'nt in great nick then. Maybe someone else can make use of it too. Can be sized for MD if anyone is interested.

Thanks. 

As for the cover, the picture is very large and hi res, but it is somewhat blurred looking.  I think the artist did it on purpose to give it a sort of water colour or haze effect.  Personally I like it, I think it kinda matches the art style of the NTSC Phantasy Star II.

And much more rare and expensive than it is to buy a repro copy complete with a custom cover, manual and case. I think Id rather pay around 50$ for a complete repro than 100$ or more for the orignial PAL and still have to mod my Genesis on top of that. Thats why Id rather have a repro...

Post by: Zelimpdna on April 25, 2010, 08:07:34 PM
The Genesis needs to be modded to play Mega Drive games? Does the Mega Drive not need to be modded to play Genesis games, or were my three just already modded before I bought them? I'm assuming the former, since Genesis games were widely sold in Australian stores at the time?

In which case, does anyone know the reason? And what sort of modding needs to be done?

Post by: BadChad on April 25, 2010, 08:58:57 PM
Some games refuse to play if the console isnt set to the region the cart expects. My Golden Axe 3 for example, wont play on my Genesis unless I use my Game Genie and a region unlock code.

MMMonkey has tutorials to mod a bunch of consoles. Heres a link to the site:

mmmonkey rulez!

I've done quite a few mods after his instructions! Very good descriptions!

As far as region lock out goes I think that all of the Genesis games which came out before the end of 1992 should be region free anyway and even after that some never had a region lock out.

Ok so Ive printed out a few Genesis covers today and I noticed they seem to pe printing out a tad bit short height wise compared to my original Gensis covers as you can see from the pic. Length wise they seem to be fine. I resized them to 3165 x 1987 so they should be printing out correctly unless the template is little shorter than an original Genesis cover. Anyone els have this happen?

As this game is pretty uncommon I did my best to still make a worthwhile cover.

Next time when you scan please make absolutely sure that the box is 100% flat when scanning! Just put some hard cover books on it to really flat it out!

Otherwise such a scan gets partly blurry which is not too cool for cover creation.

The scan did look a little weird too. Was very difficult to sharpen it because it looked grainy fast. Could it be that you didn't descreen/derasterize?
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: BadChad on May 04, 2010, 04:28:14 PM
I did put something behind the box and pushed down on it while it was scanning to flatten it out and avoid blurring. Im guessing my scanner isnt exactly the greatest.

Hey guys here's Maximum Carnage.  I know we have one on the site but it looks more like a scan of a raw and not touched up at all.  I've noticed that with a few of the older genesis games so I think I'll touch up some of them.

That's pretty cool, very well done.  Though I'm still looking for something without the holographic foil on the cover.  I know a regular, non-holographic version of that picture exists (ie: faded version on the back of the box), though I haven't had luck finding it.  Alternatively, it would be cool to just see different artwork on the front cover.  Though I haven't been able to find any good X-Men art that would work with the game.  Except maybe this"

Hexxxer, since you already have the psd, would you mind popping the Magneto pic in there to see how it looks?  Alternatively, I could mess around with it, if you don't mind sending me the psd.  It would just be easier than me having to make one from scratch.

Indiscussable. Useless. Time waste. That are just a few things which come to my mind when I see such "covers".

I hope you won't bother and upload them on our ftp.

@ Drakul, haha yeah it's a lot of red, but that's an original scan of the cover minus the small tweaks I made.  I picked up a box copy for $3 at my local Bookmans

great price... did it have the manual too? I still have my Super nes version in box... red cart and all.

side note: Is the genesis version in a red cart?

no manual unfortunately, but I did have the pleasure of removing the biggest blockbuster sticker I've ever seen.  They placed it right on the cartridge sticker :/.  The cart is not red which kind of bummed me out as well.  I only picked it up because I know we recently got the SNES version made so I said F it and picked up the genesis version.  The game is actually not bad either, but hey for three bucks I can't really complain.

i totally won't upload them, they are MOBY...meaning CRAPPY scans. BUT in a pinch, they'll be fine on my shelf.
It's either MOBY or nothing at this time.

Yeah, I'm afraid this thought crossed my mind too. With my SNES games soon (while there's life, there's hope ;) ) all matching I tought about converting my Genesis games to Grumbleduke's black grid Genesis template. But I soon abandoned that idea when I thought about posting a request for converting ~100 games when I have trouble getting around 10 SNES covers done :D

Alrighty i just reprinted out my genesis cover with the new red spine colors and they came out much much much better!  Also i experimented with BradChad's recommendations on new genesis dimensions and 3200 x 2044 is absolutely perfect!  The insert fit the sega, capcom, acclaim and ea (thinner version) cases perfectly. 

I was waiting to make sure the dimensions worked before i uploaded all my genesis covers in the genesis case size to the site.  I'll try and take care of uploading all of those today  :)

Those scans do have a pretty bad moire effect. You should descreen/derasterizre them when scanning. You could also try to flatten out them some more.

Ah yes, thanks. Now to try and convince BadChad and Grumbleduke and whoever else used the old version of your template to reconvert their covers real fast.

Did a (sorta) quick conversion of the Rocket Knight Adventures cover on the site:

http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/AppleQueso.custom.genesis_rka.jpg

Removing the Sparkster T-shirt ad among other things was the most difficult part, for sure. I had to recreate a good chunk of that top right corner, hope I did a good job. I used the white genesis logos just because I prefer the look a bit more. It's pretty trivial to change it over to gray if needed though.

Yeah Ill get those 2 covers resubmitted with the new template. Should only take 2 seconds.

I just want to point something out on the Sparkster cover. I suggest removing the horizontal red bars at the bottom of the front and back. Im pretty sure those are only used on games actually released by Sega. Just a suggestion to stick closer to what it would of actually looked like in the red template.

Thats why i updated the template. I was really disappointed when i got my genesis covers printed with the old red spine and it was one solid red color. On screen colors and colors actually printed out can differ greatly.

Aw come on do we really have to replace all the covers now just because of slightly altered stripe colors? ? ? ?
Well while its not necessary to replace all of the current colors but if we want the red colors on the spine to be separated then we should examine at least adding alternates of the existing covers with the new colors.

Yeah I know. ;D It's just that I often alter covers slightly prior to uploading (additional cleaning, color correction, etc.) and I would have to do this again to all covers which we replace. That is if I published them in the first place.

Post by: BadChad on August 20, 2010, 05:14:26 PM
@shenske

I was just looking at your Genesis covers that were just recently re-uploaded and saw something that should be changed to stay true to retail. Games like Wolverine, Spider Man and the other Acclaim developed games should have the Acclaim logo on the spine, the Hulk should have the US Gold logo and Street Fighter should have the Capcom logo instead of the Sega logos since those were only on games released by Sega. For consistency sake.  ;)
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: shenske on August 23, 2010, 03:38:30 PM
@BadChad

Thats why they are all listed as custom. I really don't like the different developer logos and little changes each developer made to the spine (ie: different color red stripes, white or silver "genesis" spine text, vastly different sizes for the developer logos and random little text added to the side.  I put Sega on the spine of all of them because the game is made for Sega's system. The only reason i have the red stripe on the bottom front is because the artwork did not fit without something to make the canvas area smaller vertically.  I meant to put a Capcom logo on the back of the SF2'SCE cover but i forgot.

So in short i wasn't trying to stay true to retail, i just wanted everything to look consistent lined up next to each other. For the future i can put the respective developer logo on the front and back but i'm going to keep the Sega logo on the spine.

Yep, I've got it formatted to the same size as the original stickers: width 7.4 cm by 6.8 cm height at 300 dpi.  Not sure if that's kept when I upload them, it might convert it to 72dpi and larger dimensions.  If that happens though and you open it in PS you can change the dimensions and it won't look any different, but will print the right size.

Have you tried printing the label yet? I'm just curious because the are a few genesis labels i want to make but i want to make sure everything fits first. Thanks

Yep I've had one of them printed out and it looks perfect.  I didn't print it myself because I don't have any way to print on vinyl, but I had a guy print it out for me and it looks perfect.  I'll take a pic when I get a chance and post it up.  If you want I can send you the template I made for the stickers, it'll save you some time.

Here you go, the template.  It's pretty simple, but saves a lot of time.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=HIG3FEB7 (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=HIG3FEB7)

This is how they look printed.  I actually modified the stripe colours since that one was made, so you get a better colour range between the stripes.  (Used the same reds from your Genesis template).

I had some extra copies of Sonic the Hedgehog 1 & 2 and both had bad labels. I decided to replace the labels with custom versions closer to the styling of Sonic the Hedgehog 3. I think it came out well and no harm because i already have extra copies of the games in my collection with the retail labels.  Thanks to djshock for the label template. I switched some stuff around and changed the red strip color but the dimensions helped out greatly!  If anyone has any interest in the labels just let me know and i can up them to the site.

Sonic the Hedgehog 1 - 3 (1 & 2 have custom labels)

Actually i get it printed at Office Max on their label/sticker paper for $0.89 a sheet.  I printed off 9 labels with plenty of space left over on the sheet.  I'll try and get the two labels up in the next day or two  :)

Could someone use the awesome US red banner template to create a custom US cover for Megaman: The Wily Wars? The Megadrive blue cover sticks out like a sore thumb. I realize it would be an alternative cover as Wily Wars has no US version. Still, I think it would be fairly easy using the blue Megadrive cover that's already on the site.

@Shenske
Can you please upload a picture real fast to explain how you fit 9 Genesis labels on a single piece of paper?  Because if you could print 9 labels for under $1, I would love to print some new labels out as I have many that really need fixed.

I have been having problems lately where a cover is not printed to scale.  A simple link to one of your "prints" to super impose some new labels over yours, it would be very much appreciated!

Exactly as irvgotti45 said with his first idea. I just copy and paste them to a blank canvas of 8"x10.5" (half an inch less in length and height that way nothing gets cut off).  You can fit a lot of labels on one sheet that way.

There is an example of how i oriented the labels in my box.net profile in my signature under "other stuff".  FYI I didnt place my labels as close to the borders as i show in the example but it should be fine considering the canvas area is 1/2" short on the length and height.


Sonic Spinball anybody? eh? eh? eh?  ;) ahriggghhht
I plan on tackling this one too, its on the ever-growing list of to-dos.


Hey shenke, think you could upload the label template with the changes you made? Ill throw up some labels for the red template conversions Ive done so far.
Yes, i didn't do much though. I just changed the red colors and switch some logos around.  You can find the template in my box.net profile in my signature under "templates".

Covers easily look good when printed out! Hell even 150dpi images which are not cleaned don't look too bad when printed.

A modified version of my custom PSIV cover, now with the terrible original artwork back in its place... I wasn't gonna make this, but I saw someone on eBay selling a "boxed" PSIV with a crudely modified version of my custom cover from here.  I figure if people are gonna do that, I might as well make a nicer version, the one on eBay looked like it was made in paint.

Oh sweet! The Ooze! I've been wanting a cover for this terrible game for a while now.  From that preview, it looks great.  The only thing that seems a bit off is the font of the "Genesis" logo, the letters seem a little too thick compared to actual Genesis games.  Which font are you using?  Copperplate SSi bold seems to be the most accurate one.

That's probably it.  Imadix has a lot of different case sizes to choose from, some are thicker which is probably what's causing the letters to appear wider.  Here's a stock photo of the original, you can really notice the difference on the "N"

Not that it's a big deal or anything. I just figured this is one of the few sites on the net where we can really appreciate perfectionism, or closeness to it  ;D

The font i used in fact is slightly thicker than the retail version used.  I used a font instead of cutting it from a cover scan so it would be vectored. The Genesis, 32X and Game Gear all use the same font with varied thickness in the lettering with each game system.  I felt since fonts are vectorized (even though it is slightly off) using the font outweighed using a raster cutout of the logo from a 15 years old cover scan.

Ah cool, yeah that makes sense.  Which font did you use, if you don't mind me asking.  I've searched through all the Copperplate varations and found that the Copperplate SSi bolded, with a bit of scaling looks exactly like the one Sega used back in the day.  If you guys are interested, you can grab it here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ELWWKY5E (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ELWWKY5E)

And I'm sorry if it came off as me questioning your work, that wasn't my intent.  I have nothing but appreciation for the high quality of your creations.  I only intended to give irvgotti some feedback, and now contribute the font to the community.

Cheers.

That Ooze cover looks great! I always dig the covers that have something popping out of the frame.  Plus it's awesome to see another cover of a paper boxed Genesis game.  I can't wait to print that one off.  Good job man! 8)

Sucks that they used to put the sticker on the cover art. Probably won't be able to find one without it.

Best way would be to get a scan of the manual (most likely has the same photo) if someone here has it.

Ich nutze Canoscan ToolBox 5.0.

Vorgangsweise:

1. Öffnen der ToolBox.

2. Speichern auswählen.

3. Bei Scannereinstellungen, Scanner Treiber anzeigen, anhaken. Unterordner und Dateiformat auswählen. Dann auf scannen drücken.

4. Der Scannertreiber öffnet sich. Hier ist nur wichtig das du die Auflösung einstellst, als Farbmodus "Farbe-(Dokumente)" und als Papierformat "Ganze Auflagefläche". Bei den Bildeinstellungen brauchst du nur "Entrastern" anhaken. Sonst nichts da das Bild ja so natürlich wie möglich aussehen sollte. Dann drückst du "Vorschau" und wählst schlußendlich genau das aus was du scannen willst. Dann "Scannen" und fertig. :)

Thanks, glad you like them! And don't worry, the JP games are some my favourites too  ;)  Yeah the covers are customs, though very much in line with the originals, the only major changes are the the back cover backgrounds.  The originals just had plain, one colour backgrounds, so I added something a little more interesting. I also used my own screenshots for better clarity.

Here's my custom cover for the upcoming Super Fighter Team release - Star Odyssey.  They were not allowed by SEGA to use the names Genesis, or Mega Drive, or the grid layout, so the official box art won't look like their other releases.  

Nothing to stop me from making custom box art though.  ;D

Pretty much everything has been updated to hi-res/revectored quailty with the exception of the Lock-on logo and the images of the carts locking on.  If anyone would like to vector the logo and/or has nicer pics of the carts please give me a shout and I'll update this thing.  Alternatively it'd be pretty cool if we could generate 3d models of the carts and use those.  

Also it turns out it's a lot easier than I'd imagined to fit a S&K cart into a regular Genesis clamshell: http://www.sega-16.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5997 (http://www.sega-16.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5997)

does the spine logo line up well with Sheske's sonic 1/2/3?

I've got my S&K in a genesis clamshell, have had it that way for a while now.

I've got my S&K in a genesis clamshell, have had it that way for a while now.

The S&K logo lines up vertically (considering the little oval symbol), everything lines up horizontally but the Genesis sign is a little bit higher vertically because mine has the "TM" mark.  If you want I can make you a version that lines it up exactly like on the Shenske cover, but I'd probably have to remove the "TM" tags from the Genesis signs if that's cool.

Cool, I'll make a few different versions using Shenske's template, some with white Genesis text, others with the gray, and will probably do UGC and Genesis clamshell variations as well.  Lol by the time I'm done I'll probably have 10 different versions.  It's worth it though, this is probably the best Genesis game, if not the best 16-bit sidescroller ever!  ;D

I delted my faded scan ages ago. I also can color correct pictures to a certain degree but this one was too much for me especially because I did it at a time when I was just learning the color management stuff in ps.

What's the Genny version like? Did they manage to keep the music in? And is it as bloody difficult as the NeoGeo version? (still love playing it though ;))
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: KaiserWAVE on January 17, 2011, 05:41:56 AM
Compared to the NeoGeo version it doesn't stand a chance of course, the graphics and the sound had to be toned down significantly. There are also some bad slowdowns here and there when there's all hell breaking loose on screen. You can use the slowdowns to your advantage though :)

If you look at it as a Genesis game without comparing it to the original version it's a really good game. Graphics and sound are still great for a Genesis game. And yes, the diffculty is still intact :) I only made it to stage three in my first run, and that rund was roughly 2 hours long. So apart from the slowdowns, which can be pretty bad sometimes, there's nothing wrong with the game and it's well worth picking up.

You wouldn't like to also make better retail version would you? Mine was done with not too hot scans and at a time when I wasn't too good at making covers (lack of ps skills). ;)

This one's for you tik!  ;) My cover had some really bad spine creases that werent a whole lot of fun to clean but I think it turned out ok.

What's also impressive is irvgotti452 keeps picking the cardboard boxed games to make covers with. World Series Baseball 98 in this batch. Others he's done recently include John Madden Football, Super Battleship, Lakers vs Celtics NBA Playoffs and Super Offroad (did I forget any?). And look at the raws he had to start with.

Well once some NTSC scans come around it would be cool if KaiserWAVE can post raws of the PAL cover so you can use the front to make an NTSC cover without that big "Bonus CD" add on the front! ;D

After some work off and on over the weekend, I present my very first template to contribute to the site! I was staring at my Genesis games on Friday and was thinking about how we didnt have a template for the different versions of the black NTSC Genesis covers. It also made me think of all the black genesis covers we have on the site that are mostly raw scans that were probably accepted way back. Hopefully this will motivate members to replace the raw scans we have hosted on the site with fresh covers made with this template! :) Made a cover in each template to get the ball rolling. Plenty more to contribute in the future!

Template:

Streets of Rage:
(http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p191/BaddyChaddy/SORBC.jpg)

Still need to clean up and organize the template a bit and then Ill send it over to shenshe or someone to take a look at.

i'm with you on that - and plan to convert all my non black grid ones as time allows.  Grumbleduke already has a PAL template up for both UGC size and sega clam size.

Yup, all retail baby!  ;D My whole plan behind making these templates was so we could get better retail covers up for the Genesis games that used these templates. Those are the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation Black retail covers they used before switching to the red template we all know and love!

I was actually going to ask you to throw a retail Toe Jam & Earl once its up. Figured since you threw up a Red Template version, shouldnt be too much trouble to convert. :)
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....

Great minds think alike. Before you made your template I was already working on one for just that cover and ghost and ghouls but now that u made it I'll just sit and wait :)

Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: ShoothimNow on February 03, 2011, 09:23:31 AM
Some games like Decap Attack have the black version as retail.  So it would make sense having that temp =P
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: tiktektak on February 03, 2011, 10:20:12 AM
I'm a bit in the same boat with applequeso here. If we keep making more and more different templates and redo covers for them we will end up with 10 covers per cover section for the same game, in the same version, from the same region, with the same artwork.

I'm all for doing retail covers with the appropriate template to make them look nicer but too much converting here and converting there.... I dunno....
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: djshok on February 03, 2011, 10:28:02 AM
Yeah, I'm all for converting older releases to the newer red stripe template (not just because I like it better), but it also makes some logical sense that an older title would get rereleased with the new box template (IIRC that actually did happen to a few titles). Converting red stripe titles to the grid ones, I'm not too hot on either. Though there are black grid style enthusiasts out there that will no doubt make custom covers regardless.

Hey everyone!

I'm still a little new around here, but I wanted to make my first cover. I scanned the cover for PGA Tour Golf for the Genesis, cleaned it up and resized it for the universal game cases. What do you think? Constructive criticism is welcome.

Come on we have a big thread for all Mega Drive/Genesis covers....

MOVED

Edit:

Took a look at your cover. Not bad for a first timer but the whole cover looks a bit warped. There are many edges of artwork which should be straight but are warped. Maybe your scan wasn't 100% flat?

I had a really heavy book laying on the scanner bed, but maybe I need to let it sit for a few days to lose some of the curl? I dont know, I'll get back to it later when I have more time.

Some scanners can't scan well near the edges, try scanning in the middle of scanner bed.

Post by: tiktektak on February 09, 2011, 04:18:57 AM
Normally a heavy book on it should be more than enough especially for a Genesis insert(SNES boxes often need more).

Hmmm.... Strange but just look at the barcode for example. This is not a really rectangular box how it should be.

Looks really nice up to now. I have the box and could try and scan in the logo. Could be useless though.

The back would maybe look nicer if you'd give it a more retailish look.

Yeah, I think add the red bar across the bottom for sure. Too bad that "$25,000 Play to Win" stuff takes up so much room.


I agree with djshok. With the amount of covers he, Grumbleduke, BadChad (including new templates :o) and irvgotti452, have done recently, the Genesis area is "Smoking". :)

To be honest, I didnt even bother to look if we had one. Now that I checked it out, it does look pretty good. The only thing thats bothering me is that it has an updated Genesis logo and not the original old school looking one. So not quite 100% retail... ;)

Nice cover but the front looks a bit dark to me or is it like that on the retail cover?

Thanks!  Yeah all the copies I've seen of this game have a really dark cover, here are a few to compare:

Hmmm.... Maybe a lighter front would still look better.

Anyway another cover from meself:

Haven't played this up to now but as I heard it is kinda like Star Control 2 which means it must be awesome! ;D

Sweet!  Here's another game I need covered.  I've played a little and it is similar to Star Control 2, although I haven't gotten involved in combat yet.  There isn't as much humor in the dialog, though.

Any chance you'd be willing to do an NTSC-U version?

It's been a good couple of days for the Genesis!  I can't believe we're actually getting a Vectorman cover!!  ;D That's just beyond awesome.  I hope Vecotrman 2 will follow.

And Grumbleduke that Shadowdancer cover is amazing.  Thanks a bunch! I am in your debt good sir.

TY :) Glad you like it. I will post it this weekend now i have the FTP sussed again.

Doesn't look bad at all.

Only the back text looks a bit warped partially but this could also be on the cover itself.
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: tydyno on February 20, 2011, 01:50:42 PM
I'm not sure if I see what you are talking about on the back, but if necessary I could try to figure out what font that is and just type it in. If that's the case, it would also make it easier for me to press that whole background pure black instead of the scanned equivalent....

It is not really THAT bad. Just a tiny bit partially.

You can try to make the back solid black with the maigc wand tool in ps by the way.

Post by: tydyno on February 20, 2011, 06:46:51 PM
Ok, well here is a version where I cleaned up the back a bit then. Yeah, I guess I was going overboard. I totally forgot about that I could use the magic wand/paint bucket tools.  :D

http://www.box.net/shared/e1on0bgcnv

I was curious and took a quick look at it. Couple points.

1. Noticed some moire effect on the logo on the spine, back and the front cover.

2. The KOEI logo on the spine has some black on the border. What i suggest is right clicking the layer
Blending Options > Color Overlay > White
and that should make it completely 1 solid color.
3. Since the magic wand doesn't get all of the back black click on
Image > Adjustments > Levels
the left tab adjusts the darks the right tab adjusts the whites and the middle controls the balance. Just adjust the left tab a few points to darken up any areas that require it eg. the middles of letters like "o" "e" etc etc. The right tab will bring out the whites in the barcode area and patents box.

Or you can do what a few of the guys and I do, and just retype the back.  ;D
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: tiktektak on February 21, 2011, 08:56:39 AM
@irvgotti: Actually I'm one of those types who doesn't like retyping too much. for legal text and barcode yes but for the back text I kinda try to avoid it. I just feel that it looks more retail with the original back text on it than retyped cause you never find a 100% font.

On a side note here is the next one from me:

Nice work badchad. Are those all retail covers?

Yup, all retail baby!  ;D My whole plan behind making these templates was so we could get better retail covers up for the Genesis games that used these templates. Those are the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation Black retail covers they used before switching to the red template we all know and love!

Hey BadChad,
Where might I find those templates? I was wanting to take a crack at the Sonic the Hedgehog cover...
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: BadChad on March 11, 2011, 12:28:30 AM
Ive sent the template over to shenske to check out a few weeks ago. Im sure once hes not too busy pumping out covers for his new PS1 template, he'll have a chance to look it over! ;)

Yeah, I don't even both with the other games. If the game was originally released in the clamshell, I always make sure to buy it in one. If it came in cardboard, I don't even worry about it. I take a UGC cover from here and resize it to clamshell size and use that in an original Sega clamshell. The shelf looks MUCH cleaner that way.

Also, @irvgotti... Seriously. Both of the Vectorman covers.... SOOOOOO SEX. Might I ask you something? For Vectorman 1, did you find some edition of the box that didn't have that "Win $10,000" golden ticket on the front, or did you completely rebuild everything under that ticket by yourself? Either way, you did an incredible job.

It was actually a combination of the "mega value" and original covers and a lot of creativity and patience. lol

Hey would any of you guys be interested in a scan of the Punisher game?  I've been meaning to scan it and do the cover myself, but I just have too much on my plate right now with all those 32x coves, manuals and 5 or so repro covers I have on the go.  I also have Trouble Shooter, if anyone wants it.  BadChad and Irvgotti, I'm looking in your direction ;)

Also, the Tick, which I bought solely for the purpose of scanning it, but then the douchebag eBay seller put tape on the damn box, fortunately the manual is in good shape.

I've been on that same mission myself. I've printed out some that we have (ie TMNT Hyperstone Heist) and you can actually see the flaws.
Also because I dont like when ppl talk crap saying "but some of your covers on the site look like crap go to this *low rez site* here. So since we have the resources y not!

That's strange. If you used a book allready (I thought you maybe only used the scanner lid) to flatten it out it should heve been a perfect scan. Especially for Genesis and other sleeve cover scans a normal book should be enough....

My new scanner (Canon Lide 210) gives me headache at the moment too by the way. He makes the scans much too dark or much to light and faded. *yuck* That is what you get for wanting newer technology to work with. My old scanner made really good scans.... :'(

Shit when unpacking your cover and opening it I accidently deleted my whole cover folder. So all my done covers and wips are gone along with some other scans (many of my cardboard games I scanned when I was on vacation last time) I saved there. Oh well shit happens.

EDIT: Luckily there are recovery programms out there that can recvover files even if they have been deleted permanently. *phew* It were around 850 files and from those around 600 covers or scans after all...

Speaking of EA's weirdness, does anybody happen to know the pixel dimensions of the retail covers from EA's THICK plastic cases?

I just recently got two of those thick EA boxes to case my Neo Myth and Sonic & Knuckles carts, but I'm having trouble getting the right size to make the covers at. I'd like to stop wasting ink if you guys already know the dimensions for sure. ::)

Ok I'm kinda pissed but someone else has to do the Trouble Shooter cover. The gradient on the back and spine is so shitty differently faded that I'm simply not up to it making it look perfect.

Maybe the whole back spine fading color gradient has to be redone to make it looks prisitne and I simply am not good enough at ps to do such a thing.

So someone else has to tackle this. Please make it perfect though cause not-so-hot I could have done it myself.

My apologies.  I don't do a whole lot of uploading/downloading of pictures and whatnot, so I'm not very well versed in what are good sites to use for such a task.  I was not able to upload the scans to mediafire without re-sizing them as they were too large in their original form.  Here are the links if they'll work.  If not, perhaps someone knows a free file sharing site that can host large picture files...

Monopoly Back:   http://www.mediafire.com/?5rdt3cdvb7anwec


I did upload the original, full-sized scans here, based on a tip from my brother's friend, but am not sure how well this particular site works...

Download Primal Rage Front Cover.jpg from FileFactory.com (http://www.filefactory.com/file/ca67dbd/n/Primal_Rage_Front_Cover.jpg)

Download Primal Rage Back Cover.jpg from FileFactory.com (http://www.filefactory.com/file/ca67d2e/n/Primal_Rage_Back_Cover.jpg)

Download Monopoly Front Cover.jpg from FileFactory.com (http://www.filefactory.com/file/ca67d44/n/Monopoly_Front_Cover.jpg)

Download Monopoly Back Cover.jpg from FileFactory.com (http://www.filefactory.com/file/ca67d65/n/Monopoly_Back_Cover.jpg)

Again, if anyone can help me out with these, I would very much appreciate it.  I know they might need a bit of work because the covers are a little beat up around the edges.  I'm not looking for perfect and have been highly impressed with the work I've seen elsewhere on the cover project.  And again, if it's possible to take out the Six Flags promo from the cover of Primal Rage, that would be nice, but if not, no worries. 

Thank You Again... And An Extra Thanks To All Reading This For Their Patience With My Complete Newbie-ness.  :)

I would like to finish this one. KaiserWave if you still have this one can you rescan it (with no adjustments plz  ;D)? The original had some of the back cut off.

I found another site that allowed me to upload/download the large, untouched, scans of the covers I need.  This ones seems to lack the multiple, uber annoying, ads that the filefactory download links had...

Primal Rage Front Cover:  http://www.filesavr.com/Q418F3N5YSHKQV8
Primal Rage Back Cover:  http://www.filesavr.com/QTTDLPSXFQ9QIVN
Monopoly Front Cover:  http://www.filesavr.com/TZBPXJKLMIWXZAE
Monopoly Back Cover:  http://www.filesavr.com/85GQ7UVL9KFYTJN

I don't mean to come off as pushy or anything... Just figured that if someone is able and willing to make these two covers, they might appreciate download links without all the ads (and they appear to go much faster as well).

Sonic & Knuckles

Available in both UGC format, and Standard Genesis Case Format.
They are up on my Box account (See my Signature for the Link).

Feel free to add em, and any others I've made, to this site, if ya like them.  ;)

These variations look similar the custom cases for Sonic 1, 2 and 3, especially the Spines.
Now Sonic & Knuckles doesn't stand out / look weird on my shelf, nestled with my other Sonic Games. XD

Sonic & Knuckles

I literally JUST made a case exactly like this, except at a slightly different size. I adjusted the insert to fit one of the extra-thick EA Genesis cases, that way there's no bulge when you close the case, and the EA cases requires just a very slight modification and the S&K cart won't move around like it can in a regular Gen case.  ;D

I also made Sonic & Knuckles covers a few pages back, they just haven't been uploaded because the uploads are broken.  Mine are technically customs though because that whole front cover has be redone, I also used the Japanese style logo.

Well, to be honest, it took a good bit of hack-job re-working of the original Genesis template. Basically, I made the cover the same height, but 11 inches wide. Then, using the exact copied backs and fronts of the original covers, I pasted them each to opposite sides of the image, that way I would know the size that the spine needed to be. Once I saw the gaps between the fronts and backs, I basically re-made the red striped spine from scratch, starting on the cover side, and moving back. When I printed it out, I had to cut a total of maybe 1/16th of an inch off of the sides to make it fit. If you would like, I could send you the PSD file that I used to make the EA-sized cover. The work is pretty rough, I warn you, though. That file is ugly and was made for my eyes only. :D

EDIT: Also, how the eff did I miss this re-working!?

The back on this thing is beautifully re-done, although I think I like the original art for the front cover a bit more. Still, really awesome. Now I need to re-print my custom cover to use this beautifully re-worked back. ;D

Thanks for the offer. Unfortuantely, I don't have Photoshop or any sort of editing software beyond the paint program that came with my computer.  Don't do much editing and whatnot.  Is there some type of program I can download for free that would open the file so I could print it?

Also...

Is anyone able to make the Primal Rage and Monopoly covers?  I have no idea how to do them myself and would very much appreciate the help to complete my Genesis game covers.

If there's anything I can do as far as re-scanning or re-uploading the raw scans, please let me know.  The latest links I posted are rather large files sizes (scanned at a high dpi to capture the details of the covers), so I don't know how much of a pain those might be to work with and would be happy to re-scan if needed.

No problem if it takes a while, I can be patient; just let me know if you are able and willing to work on them and if there's anything I can do on my end to help.

You want the thick-EA case version of Sonic & Knuckles? I could just upload it and send it to you if all you want to do is print it. I finished editing the back so it has the newly re-done back, but still has the classic front on the cover. Let me know if you want me to upload it, and I'll do it next time I'm at my computer. ;)

Ye, I just want to print it out and put it in the case.  I don't mess with editing things too much (at least not outside of very basic picture croping and re-sizing).  Hence the hope that someone can make those two covers for me.  I would be very thankful if you could upload the EA case version of the Sonic & Knuckles cover.

Alright, bud. Go ahead and click the link in my signature, and you should download the file called "gen_sonicandknux_ea_2.png". That'll be what you need to print. Just remember to cut off a tiiiiiiny extra bit of the cover on both sides in order to make it fit just right. ;)

Thank You So Much.

Here is the link to the rescanned Monopoly cover...

http://www.filesavr.com/2YB6K5A3JEZA40B

To my eyes, it looks a bit better than the previous image.  The cardboard cover does have some crinkling and denting around the top third of it, so perhaps that may account for the imperfection in the scanned image.  It is particularly noticable just below the space between the words brothers and real in the title line.  Also, for some reason, my scanner likes to freeze up when scanningin 600dpi, so I typically use the next level up at 1200dpi.  Not sure if that makes any difference, just figured I'd mention it.

Actually no adjustment doesn't apply to all scanners. With my old scanner I always had to choose document as a scanned source type (plus derasterization) and the scans looked perfect. With my new scanner it is pretty difficult. Without any source option the scans look extremly bland and colorless as it was the same with my old scanner BUT when I choose document the scans get extremly oversaturated sometimes. *ggggrrrrrr* The new scanner software sucks bigtime. >:(

The cover is 100% retail and because of that it looks a bit strange. Don't ask me why the didn't use the grid and another front legal text.

The cover is from a scan of the EU MD version, so I couldn't really do much about the bar at the bottom, if anyone has a scan of the Genesis version I'd appreciate it.

Thank you very much for this. I thought this would never turn up. My copy was loose. Could you provide the raws? I'd like to play around with them and see if I can get them closer to the NA version. It doesn't look like it would be too hard to clone tool in some stuff at the bottom and then expand the caution tape stripes at the top to go under the Sega logo like the original.

I'm guessing the back was all custom?
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: djshok on April 21, 2011, 05:50:47 AM
Yeah I can send you the scan when I get home tonight.  And you are correct, the back is all custom as the MD version I have has the multi language text on the back, so I just made a back that was more in line with the other JP games.

Someone wanted a PAL MD version of the Alien Soldier repro cover I made, I guess since it actually came out in Europe then this can be a custom cover.

Now that this game has been released, might as well post this up.  The official cover for this one is unfortunately quite ugly because Sega asked them not to use the words Sega, Genesis, or Mega Drive or any of the associated logos on the cover.  Nothing to stop me from making an unofficial one though.

So you used both?  ;)

Would you mind doing separate covers? (one for Genesis other for Mega Drive?
And Spine should have grid as well.

Nice cover.

the previous releases used branding of both genesis/megadrive on the same cover, and omitted the spine grids - as he stated, he went with the same design as previous games in the series.  (but i agree a version with the grid and single branding for all 3 would be nice)

Post by: djshok on June 29, 2011, 09:08:30 AM
Yes exactly, I used the SFT style cover for this one because I want it to match my other 2 SFT games on my shelf.   ;)

You can see Beggar Prince: http://www.sega-mag.com/jeux/cover/Megadrive/Beggar+Prince-Megadrive-EUR.jpg (http://www.sega-mag.com/jeux/cover/Megadrive/Beggar+Prince-Megadrive-EUR.jpg) and Legend of Wukong: http://www.legendofwukong.com/images/product.gif (http://www.legendofwukong.com/images/product.gif) both use dual logos and don't have the grid on the spine. 

You can find out more about those games on the SFT site: http://www.superfighter.com/ (http://www.superfighter.com/)

Unfortunately I think all 3 of them are sold out right now. 

And yeah, I can make custom versions for you guys that have only one logo and the grid on the spine.

zakurowrath you have pretty much the right idea putting the covers together...but where are you getting your scans from? Also the edges need more clean up work (try using the clone stamp tool in PS). And to make things look a little nicer (since when you scan you add LIGHT to an image) adjust the brightness/contrast, levels and some (not a lot) saturation and the colors will come out looking great. Also I believe there's a template with more updated SEGA seal lol. But keep it up.

Really, I checked RAW and searched Sonic and came up with nothing huh odd. I would love to have it since my Sonic Classics box is abit bent in places.

I actually have the games in their original boxes that's where I got my scans from, although your right they could use some major touch ups since those particular covers were created about two years I believe and I was using a different scanner then.

Hopefully that tool is somewhere in Macromedia Fireworks MX 2004 which is what I'm using to edit all my covers.

Thanks for the encouragement  ;D

These should be correct:

http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=11260
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=11256

I'm not sure is it released yet as template, so you might have to cannibalize exsisting cover.
Or ask from djshokit, as it might be his personal template: http://www.thecoverproject.net/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=4710

Perfect, could you also lighten the cheetahs on the black covers back, they are just bit too dark, and redo the text:
Get 52 "New and Original" exciting games for play on your Sega Genesis. Try to get Billy Bob out of the Dungeon where he is imprisoned, to save MARYLOU. Go along with the ACTION GAMEMASTER as he changes into one of the fearsome CHEETAHMEN to try to defeat all of the ACTION 52 evil attackers. These two games plus an additional 50 games on this one "Multi-GamePak" will keep you entertained for a long time. (copied from GameFaqs)

Here's that X-Men 2 scan again.  Hopefully you can make it happen, the Mega Hits edition of this game is super hard to come by with the box intact, but the other version has that holo foil cover, so it'd be cool if we could have a cover of this using the Mega Hits art, like you did for Vectorman.

I've got something special today.  I came upon this interesting X-Men 2 artwork a while ago while scouring the internet.  The curious thing about it is that it was painted by Chris Moeller (a renowed comic book artist from 90's). According to his signature it was painted in '94 - the same year that X-Men 2 was made.  This leads me to believe that Sega and/or Marvel had several artists paint the image for the game cover and they chose the one they liked best. Which for the North American version was the popular Ken Steacy version of that image.  Oddly enough Europe got a completely nonsensical cover that has nothing to do with the game and is in fact the cover of the Game Gear release X-Men: Game Master's Legacy.  So I figured I'd fix that as well.

The spines were not the same, some had darker stripes, some were lighter/ almost one solid shade of red, some had bad colors, some had a black grid. Look at the ones archived to the left and compare. These are the Genesis games i have and was just making them formal for my own use and uploading them for anyone who wanted them.

To be fair, the only unnecessary ones were Pac-Man 2 and VecterMan. Look at some of them before the fix. and Ms. Pac-Man and MoonWalker did not have red spines and Sonic 2's red spine logo was on the bottom, so i moved it.

How unfortunate that the Sorcerer's Kingdom and I suppose also the other ones came from a low rez source.

We could definitely need those (especially Sorcerer's Kingdom) on the site.

In the current state a no-go as I suppose the scans came from mobygames or the like.

Just out of curiousity. Why save them as a png and blow them up sizewise if they come from a low rez source anyway? You know that doesn't make them look any better. ;)

Post by: larryinc64 on September 11, 2011, 08:21:21 PM
The back of Cyber ball if from a Moby scan because the original scan was Pal and has a different back, the Pal one is available. The other 3 were touch ups of Moby scans and a few other sources and the 4 were for PDDestro, he needed the covers so these are temp replacements until better scans surface, they are not too bad IMO, they should look god printed.

Yeah, these were a personal request I made of Larry since I'd had these games uncovered for years with no raws in sight. If someone has raws of these, awesome, but I've made requests several times before and even used the wiki to no avail. So, I figure these will do fine until some raws show up. One does get impatient after years of waiting... ;)

Thanks Arseen, but that's what we used for the first conversion Larry put up a week ago. The back is not the same as the NTSC version and why I asked if he could try the moby backcover...

Awesome, I'd really appreciate it! :)

In the meantime, if you want the PAL front to look more like the NTSC, you forgot to change the 16 Bit Cartridge text at the bottom. Remove the Sega logo, center the "16 Bit" text and change "Mega Drive" to "Genesis" underneath it.

They do really? I always bump the contrast up on every cover I make to make them more vibrant. Maybe Cover Pro is doing something to the picture, I always turn the "light" option on to reveal the whole cover so that may be it.

Alot of the times in IMANDIX, if you don't uncheck "Depth Blur" and click "High Quality," the previews end up looking a bit blurry/faded. HOWEVER, I haven't checked out the real cover, so it could just be that it is faded. lol.

Could be, most of my games are used, that or my scanner is just getting old. It could even be the editing software I use, it's abit old as well.

It is the "Light" option in Imandix making it look faded. Check my post HERE (http://www.thecoverproject.net/forums/index.php?topic=1101.60), (down near the bottom).

Took a look at the cover. Fading is just because of Imandix but it could still need a bit of detail work. The front has some spots which should be cleaned. It also looks as if the front came from a not too hot scan. Did you scan it yourself?

I did,the front, back and spine labels were scanned at 600dpi with medium sharpness and descreen on. Then I turned up the contrast 25% on all of them since they looked abit dull. Now the spots I can see, the rainbow banding, I have no idea how that happened, it didn't turn up in the original RAW scan, damn Fireworks must have done something to it.

Maybe scanning with just descreen on and nothing else would be best. You can apply contrast or color or sharpness afterwards in photoshop. Scanners often tend to do strange things to scans when you use settings for image alterations when scanning.

I'm working on a 'red stripe' version of Ghouls N' Ghosts.

Here's what I have so far
(http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3361389/New%20Folder%20%286%29/gng.jpg)

Before I continue, I was hoping you guys could help me out a bit, namely with regards to the template options and stuff. I believe this port was actually developed by Sega themselves, but the original game was made by Capcom, so which should go on the spine, Capcom or Sega? The game also doesn't seem to have a product number or whatever that number on the bottom of the spine is. What should I do about that?

Also wondering whether or not the bottom red bar should be used, etc. I don't work with genesis much so hopefully you guys can help me out here a bit.

Well seeing as how it was reprogrammed by Sega, Id say follow the regular sega format with the bottom red bar and sega spine logo but maybe have the capcom logo on the back with all the proper legal text giving capcom credit for being the original developers. Looking great btw! ;)

I kinda had to omit some of the legal text like the address and Made in Japan bits because I was running out of room, but I at least got the reprogrammed game C Sega 1989 stuff. I thought about putting the address info on the red bottom part on the back, but I wasn't sure if it'd be considered too much a deviation from the template or something. If someone thinks I should add that info there, though, I'll do it.

anyhow, what do you think?
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: djshok on October 16, 2011, 10:27:01 PM
Well you can always put some of the legal text on the bottom red bar on the back.  Also, I'd suggest moving some of the back text a little further away from the edge.  As it is right now, when you'd print that and cut it out that text would be dangerously close to the edge.  Other than that it's looking good.

Edit, also you should use the new Sega Seal from the Shenske Template.  It's much cleaner.

I'll go ahead and add the remaining legal text on the red bar then.

Hmm it's entirely possible that the new Sega Seal isn't in the template.  It was made by Hexxer quite a while ago, I can't even find the original post where he shared it with us.  I know most people making Genesis covers have been using it since.  Anyway, you can grab it from my Genesis template psd found here: http://www.box.net/shared/5qi65zpjbp/1/52051991/512663835

The back of Cyber ball if from a Moby scan because the original scan was Pal and has a different back, the Pal one is available. The other 3 were touch ups of Moby scans and a few other sources and the 4 were for PDDestro, he needed the covers so these are temp replacements until better scans surface, they are not too bad IMO, they should look god printed. If any one has any scans, feel free to post. And I save in PNG as a habit.

Here's a scan of Thunder Fox. A little faded, but maybe you can do something with it.

Those covers look all look good to me. The red spine games could be thrown onto a template to clean up the creases and streets of rage is just a couple of touches away from being perfect.
The rest would pass at first glance. Keep em comin

Thanks!

The creases on Sonic 3 really bother me. I'm going to see if I can clean them up. If not I'll try using the template. I know of one spot you're talking about on the Streets of Rage cover. I'll give that another shot and see if I can get it.

I'm going to start doing some more covers we don't have, like NTSC Outrun and Steel Empire.

On the site if passed the inspection (takes some weeks) or on mediafrei or the likes of the creator uploads them there as well.

For the records. I'm in the process of making a huge load of covers site ready. Should be a big site update on the next weekend or at least in two to three weeks.

Post by: Arseen on February 21, 2012, 06:40:06 PM
On recent covers list all NES and SNES covers fromm Wing Commandser down are listed as Custom.
Atleast the SNES ones should be called retail.

NES ones can be Custom or Retail depending is the definiton changing to:
With NES logo on spine = Custom
Without our NES logo = Retail

If the definition is starting to change then the Gyruss cover higher on the list should be called Retail like it is, and the NES covers on the bottom of the list should be called custom like they are.

I say keep the covers that look about the same as retail ones called Retail, and truly custom ones Custom, Just as the definition has been since I joined.

Couldn't believe we didn't have this game in my region on our site so there it is.

Was a real bitch to make because some earlier Mega Drive games had this special version of the front frame which we haven't got in our template. So I had to recreate it and that took some time! *argh*

Sure but that is no vectorized logo. I'm just a photoshop working ant no specialist so I have no clue about creating vector stuff.

Just a scanned in and cleaned one. A yes and I don't have it seperate. You'd have to extract it from the cover.

By the way could it be that there were three types of Mega Drive logos used on EU MD covers? I always thought only two but it seems some games have this strange different grey frame on the front and that differently looking blueish MD logo.

High five to the man who created the double dragon cover! I've been needing this one since I found this site. It looks great in the black clam shell and I'm not sure why they didn't do that in the first place. Aside from the great project I think it might be missing a genesis logo on the spine but it might just be my imagination. Anyways thanks again and if any of you talented folk would like to take on art of the fighting that would be a good one too! I know you guys have the snes cover on here but its just a thought!

Glad you like it.  8)  I've been getting requests for that one for over a year now and just couldn't motivate myself to make it.  I just find the cover art so ... ugly lol, Plus it's borderline impossible to find a nice scan of it since it came in a crappy carboard box.  Good to hear it looks cool in a case.  As for the Genesis logo, that game didn't have one, it's one of those early Accolade aka Ballistic releases that didn't feature any official Sega logos because of some weird licensing issue at the time, same thing with the original Bubsy release and a couple of others.

The double dragon artwork is a classic and far from ulgy in my opinion but maybe the arcade poster may look a little cooler but thanks for the hard work. Thoes Accolade boxes are junk and the only other one worth making would be universal solider but the UK version actually got a hard case for that one I think. At any rate, the spine looks a little bare but you're right it is retail accurate. I guess now I will have to wait for my other requests: Scooby Doo Mysteries, Art of the Fighting, Sat. Night Slam Masters ( they have it here but that orange sitcker is an eye sore) and my chinese 6 in 1 bootleg.

I ask because my Genesis collection is mostly boxed already, and I figure I can get my hands on some empty Genesis cases from the local retro game store (my friend works there). That way I could box my few loose games and replace the handful of paper Geneses boxes I have.

Hello all,

First post overhere, hope I'mnot breaking any rules ... Here goes ...
I'm doing a little project of my own and I was wondering if there is anyone out there who has the (back) cover of the following Genesis games (region doesn't really matter to me) :

-blockbuster world championship II
-Exodus : Journey to the promised land
-ishido :the way of stones
-Lethal Enforcers
-Sol-Deace
-Spiritual Warfare
-World series baseball 95

I'm especially looking for the back sides of the boxes, I already have the fronts so I can try and make something nice myself in phtoshop. However, if full boxes are available, that is even better. Doesn't matter if the art is cleaned or not, I can do this ...

Also, found some very low quality (too low) of the following, so if anyone has these, please let me know :

-Bass master classic
-Bible Adventure
-Chavez 2
-Madden NFL 98
-Minesota fats
-ncaa final four basketball
-NFL 95
-No Escape
-Onslaught   
-Warpspeed

Any help appreciated. Thanks for reading.

That Dune custom is pretty sweet.  The only thing that seems odd about it is the old metallic Genesis logo on the newer style red stripe template.  The old logo never showed up on the red stripe style covers since by that time Sega had changed Genesis/MD cover styles.  Other than that, it's kickass!  I actually like it better than the original cover.

That's weird, I was just thinking how odd it was that there wasn't a good Mortal Kombat cover.  Good job man!  What's the difference between the custom and the retail one though?

Also I noticed is you have the new rendered Sega Seal on the back and the old one on the front.  Maybe put the new one on the front as well, it's much crisper looking.

I'm pretty sure this cover won't make it to actual site considering how the football in Deion's hand looks. I have no clue why I spent over an hour trying to clean up all the tears on the raw scan of this cover considering I'm probably never going to play this game. I think it looks okay considering what I was working with though, so if your standards are low like mine and you need this cover for your collection - it's in my Box account.

Over the next hour or so, I'll be editing the majority of my uploaded covers in this thread with a slightly better version for anyone who may be interested. I'm still trying to get better each day. After I post the updated covers, if anyone's got advice or tips on some things I can do to improve - I'd love to hear it. I'm not the sensitive type and I only want to make covers that would help this great site out, so constructive criticism would be appreciated.

Maybe a little nitpicky, but I'd just like to point out that when they used the large SEGA logo on the bottom stripe they didn't include the smaller one above the GENESIS logo.  Basically there would never be 2 blue SEGA logos on he same side of the box.

I don't suppose anyone would have / could make a PAL MegaDrive version for Gunstar Heroes that would be a retail one - that is, with the same cover art as the Genesis retail version? The PAL versions we have on the site use a custom cover art. The back could be the same, but I'd really like the cover to be same as original.

Dears,
i didn't leave any comments since months - i was completely inactive at all but today i have something to share.

Since i started to collect some Mega Drive / Genesis games it bothered me that the retail boxes look so chaotic in the shelf.
So i decided to go the "black template way".
Please note that they look a bit different than the other black covers on the site. I have redone the complete back with the gray lines.

This is the result (Hope you like one or two of them):

@Azazell0
I have planned to do the black Gunstar Heroes PAL cover with the original Box Art.
But it could take a while, since i don't have the game yet. :)

It's okay, if you ever get around to finishing it, give me a PM to let me know.

And I really like your covers you just posted - I think I'm gonna have to print those for all the games I have from the list.

What you said about chaotic - it always bothers me that I have some MD games that have the later "blue" cover like Taz - Escape from Mars and Comix Zone and the rest have black covers. If I had some skills, I would've personally made a "black label" version of those "blue" covers to satisfy neurotics like me who like the spines to look the same kind in the shelf!  ;D

Here is a US-correct version of Blockout. Screens match up on the back. Since this game was only available in one of those EA cardboard boxes, there is no barcode (it was on the bottom flap).

Everything except the screens, "snakeskin" front border, rear EA logo and front Blockout logo are rebuilt literally from scratch.

Yep it's based on yours, I just changed it to use my template, changed the screens on the back to ones I took, put in a new Saban logo, new spine and back Power Rangers logos, updated the SEGA and ESRB logos, and made the back text pop a little more with a drop shadow because it was hard to read it when you print it out, plus some other small edits.  Small details, I did it for personal use, but figured I might as well share it here in case anyone else wants it.

James Pond 1 and 2 are missing from the Games List for Genesis..  Is there something I need to do?

Here is the cover..

Just started making Genesis cases..  Hoping for a quick critique.. Colors aren't exactly right in the black, but don't show when printed.

Yeah, it definitely does!! It was really a quick hack apart job. I couldn't track down a RAW to fix those issues.. :-/  A sega CD/Saturn front/manual would probably be the best resolution for the front image.

So... I checked the raws and there is a Sega Saturn Manual!! And it has everything I need to re-build the Genesis cover..  Including an unencumbered skeleton back page on the manual, so I won't have to patch over every little text hole.. :-P  I'll see if I can shape those scans up and get a new cover out!

Hi guys.

I wasn't satisfied with the insert options for Shining Force 2 and Phantasy Star 4, so I did a little bit of patching in Paint to try to fix them up.

Shining Force 2 had a pretty good retail insert already available, but if you looked closely at it, you would see a faint line around the Shining Force 2 logo on the spine, and some of the diagonal lines running from the front of the box to the back were a little jagged and uneven around the spine logo.

I spent some time removing the line around the logo and getting the diagonal lines a little more even.

http://www.mediafire.com/view/83f25143d726aux/Shining_Force_2_fixed.jpg

Phantasy Star 4 had a retail insert, but it was a raw scan of the box with color fading on the front, and very noticeable creases on other areas. It had some nice looking inserts too, but none of them were of the retail artwork (the closest had the retail front but a custom back). I merged the two sources to get something that looks like the actual retail artwork without all the creases and faded colors.

http://www.mediafire.com/view/lszqoi0glzjrqd3/Phantasy_Star_4_fixed.jpg

Hope you guys like them.

Hmm, I guess it's a possibility. I've just gotten a serious amount of NES, SNES and Genesis scans from you a couple years back. Figured it was a good possibility I got it from you. Let me know if you manage to track one down. Thanks!

Just a few minor nitpics. The Sega logo on the spine is missing, and the Sega logo above "Genesis" on the front should be removed since it's already present on the bottom red strip (which should be solid red). That, and the product ID # is missing from the spine as well. The ID# is 5503. Lookin' good though!

Title: Potential new Genesis covers for the site from The Coop
Post by: The Coop on August 22, 2014, 01:01:31 AM
Greetings, all. First time poster, third time account (my two previous accounts under this screen name got deleted... the second one from just a couple of days ago after uploading some covers).

I noticed that I've done a fair number of cover scans and clean ups that aren't on the site, or are in better shape than what's on the site for that version. But, since I don't know what'll happen to this account, or what happened with the uploads I did with my now gone previous account from a couple of days ago, I thought I'd post these here.

Rather than go through everything again to see what needs replacing (like Beyond Oasis) or what's a new cover for the site, I'll just post all of the ones I've done for your consideration to use. They're all DropBox links, so for those interested, be sure to use the "Download" button for grabbing the full versions, and to not grab the smaller compressed previews that pop up...

Hello, I'm new, I just created a cover for the game Puggsy. The text and image is from the original cover. It is designed for the Universal Game Case:

I can't bother to do the complete nit-picking evaluation as I can see that the front is too low quality for the cover to pass, but rest of the pieces looks excelent.

If you can find high quality front I can do more thorough check.
But what i can tell is that if any flaws are found they would be something small and easy to fix.

Post by: Mic2000 on October 20, 2014, 10:52:08 AM
So that means that a cover like the one of Hook on page 104 isn't good enough either when you close up?

Correct.

Front is faded and back text is bit blurry.

Your cover is good exept the front image.
By nit-picking I meant I must check the at all legal info and markings are correect and no typos are present.

Post by: tiktektak on October 20, 2014, 11:35:38 AM
Hmmmm.... I actually would say Puggsy is nearly okay. The front isn't low res it just seems like the scanner wasn't too good. If teh front would be a bit better the cover would be really nice.

I agree on Hook though, definitely mega faded front sadly.

Sometimes "found" is better than nothing.  I "found" a few scans on the internet that were miraculously turned into decent covers.  But I agree, it's best when we can find the real thing. ;D

First of all I understand that you guys are very critique, though I want to say I do this in my free time and to be honest, I find the presentation/form of the sharp critique sometimes not that motivating. Perhaps it's just me, perhaps not, I wanted to give you guys this feedback.

Anyway, I am making the cover originally for a friend who get the Puggsy game for his birthday, so posting it to you guys is for me an extra and a tribute to the developers of Puggsy! Below a sample for the previous puggsy cover quality, the second is the new scan i found, the third is cleaned up. Is this resolution good enough for thecoverproject.net standards?

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8321025/Puggsy.png)

Perhaps making a page on the homepage with clear examples of quality issues you accept and what not. Makes it much more easier.

Yeah we can be bit sharp, but we have found out that staright honest unsugarcoated critisism works best in guiding people towards the quality level we want.
Take as promising sign when we critique.

Most time if cover goes uncritizised iit means we thin it's beyond hope, and not worth our attention.

I do this in my free time.

As do we, nobody gets payed or is employed on this site. ;)

If the lowest image is 300DPI AND correct size, it would probably be accepted with some additional tweaking, same goes for the middle one.

I understand you do this in your free time too, I respect that as much as myself creating work for this site. About the quality guide page linked on the homepage. Yes it is there, though linked to the forum, a forum full with a lot of text. For me (and I guess a lot of new users) a page (not forum) with a description and example images of what is acceptable and what not would help and make it much easier to oversee then a lot of forum topics/post.

Anyway, by here the cover with the new front:

Nice. Much better.

Was Puggsy really by compile?

Unfortunately, pictures of everything not acceptable would be way too large of a page.  But I agree we do need to be more accessible to new users.  The only people that seem to stick around are those of us that have been here forever, and those prepared to sift through the history to learn, so I guess we've never really had a need to change things.

We're a friendly bunch, but we all have real lives that take precedence (apart from Arseen who lives here), so we need to prioritize. And that's generally checking submitted covers, or creating our own, rather than changing what's already here.

Hey guys, new to the forums. i just started the long process of putting all my old games in cases, and figured I would contribute where I could.

I uploaded a few of my own scans to the site, but there was one in particular that I had problems with. Winter Challenge by Accolade for the Sega Genesis. This game is not selectable on the upload page, so I figured I'd put it here. I did a search for the game title here but couldn't find anything so I apologize if this is a repost. Also, if this is in the wrong spot let me know and I'll post it somewhere else. This seemed like the best spot. Thanks!

I don't have a PSD as I just worked straight off the RAW scan and didn't really need to create any layers. However, I did make another one that's sized for the Genesis cases I can upload. That's one I'm using and it fits nicely in an EA case. I can also upload the RAW file after I cleaned it up, but before I did any resizing.

Cleaned raw would be awesome! :)  It's pretty simple to fix the spine for most EA titles, since the background is typically just 2 colors.  I bought a bunch of EA game cases to house the orphans, so I need to double check the spine sizes etc when I print since they are slightly larger.  The James Pond I just posted was a luck find.  I wanted the game, but there was no cover, since it's in a cardboard box it's hard to find a good box as well.. Found one at a game store, and when I was checking out the clerk stacked all the games up and crushed the cardboard.  GRRRRRR. Luckily it didn't damage the back or the front, just the spine a bit.  But I'm putting it in a case anyway, so it didn't really matter as long as I could get a good scan! :)

Here is another one!  Picked up a boxed copy of Aquatic Games - Starring James Pond and the Aquabats.  The one that's hosted on TCP is pretty washed out.   I didn't noticed that the lettering on the scan in the rear was a little blurry.  I may re-scan after the cover has had some time to settle in it's new box.  It was pretty warped before scanning, so this is looking pretty good! :)

What a pain in the rear.. I was trying to make you a Mega Drive cover, but short of CS6, it's REALLLLY hard to get the title on the front to stroke/outline with sharp edges.  I took some time to crop it all out and it looks like crap.   Hopefully a better scan would make it much easier! :)

Would anyone be willing to do a cover for the Menacer 6-Pack using its US Retail cover art, please?

It's the last one I need to have proper box art for my Genesis collection.

well i did a quick mockup of what could be done i suppose..its hard finding a picture of the cover online so all i had was lo res and i didnt want to maximize them to the boarder because of how pixelated it was getting already but..i made a quick one for you (http://i59.tinypic.com/95z8r6.jpg) maybe you can get some use out of it until someone makes a better one..or if you find better images i could make a better looking one i printed it out on a legal plain piece of paper at high quality it doesnt look all that bad

Thanks for posting one, but I really want one that looks like the actual box art and doesn't have that red Sega Genesis logo (and I don't feel like spending the money for a temporary insert).

A couple posts down in this thread someone supplies some scans of the Menacer box:

Hi there. Yesterday SNES, today SMD.

I have made a Retail cover for the "Sega Mega Drive Six Button Pad".
I had to make some small adjustments - like the logo area on the back and on the spine.
The format of the box did not fit to the UGC format.

This is also meant as placeholder until the "Amaray Megapacks" arrive.
As soon as i got them i will upload another version.

Like Polygon said, it's better to post this in the request section.  I almost didn't see it here.

I converted the T2 cover back when I was making my uniform-spine Genesis covers.

Thanks a bunch. Yeah, I worked off the UGC version and used my original case art as a reference. There are only a few variations that would give away that it's a reproduction, so I'm happy with it.

ZANY GOLF

I have had this game for some time now, scanned in and waiting to do a cover. Had some time to finally knock it out over the weekend.

I'm not 100% satisfied with the front center image but it's going to have to do until we get perfect box art scanned in for it. As such, I didn't plan on submitting to the site - but if admins feel it's good enough to post to the main site, by all means please do so! The entire back was made from scratch since it was basic.

Everything was created and placed with Illustrator, scans and screens tweaked in Photoshop first.

FYI.  A Sega sized cover in a UGC looks kind of funky to me.  I tried that a few times in the past.  It will work if it's meant to be temporary until you get some actual Sega cases, but I wouldn't recommend it for long term.

3189 x 2020 Is what I have found to be the most accurate in comparison to the original cover inserts.

3200 x 2044 Is what I have found to fill the most of the available area in the case.

Here is a taste of what I've been working on. I was planning on doing a template where I just replaced the black grid background of the older Genesis covers and made them red stripes, but ended up doing some serious Photoshop work and making all of them into the normal red stripe template. I had a lot of patching in to do, mixing parts from covers of different regions, and my own filling in work, to remove any old Genesis logos or seals that were covering the art on the Black Grid covers.

Title: RBI Baseball '93 Cover For Universal Game Cases
Post by: Brent on May 15, 2017, 02:22:02 PM
Made a more standard looking cover for RBI Baseball '93
The original spine did not match up well with the way most Genesis games look, it stuck out like a sore thumb.

Hi everyone. My first cover and very faithful to the US retail cover. I noticed this one hasn't been uploaded yet and it's unlisted from the main upload page so hopefully posting it here will suffice.

Doom Troopers: Mutant Chronicles.

Hi everyone. My first cover and very faithful to the US retail cover. I noticed this one hasn't been uploaded yet and it's unlisted from the main upload page so hopefully posting it here will suffice.

That looks great, especially for your first cover! It's always a good idea to upload your covers here in the forums before sending them to the main site. The rules are super strict to become official Cover Project covers, and there is no notification if your submission is rejected. By bringing them to the forums first, the community can help you fine tune any details and provide constructive feedback. With that said, there are a couple of things with your cover I think could be improved.

•The Playmates logos on the front, back, and spine as well as the Mutant Chronicles logo could be replaced with crisper images. I have a Playmates logo I made some time ago that I'd be happy to share, and I found a Mutant Chronicles logo online that I cleaned up a bit that should help as well. Both are linked below.

•To the left of the Sega Seal of Quality on the front cover there are some faint vertical lines crossing the red stripes. if I remember correctly this may be an issue with the template, but I may be mistaken.

•The "Licensed by Sega Enterprises" text on the bottom of the front cover is pretty blurry and should be replaced. I believe the template has a text box with that blurb that should line up pretty well over the existing text. If not, I'd be happy to lend a hand finding the right font and various character properties to make it fit.

•Lastly, The screenshots are pretty poor and look discolored, maybe sun-faded? This is a tough one, as recreating screenshots is both time-consuming and difficult. There's only a few folks here in the forums that have the skill to remake a screenshot from scratch. An easier solution would be to locate a better scan. Hopefully another member has a copy they can upload. Or maybe that's just how they were printed, I don't own a copy so can't say for certain. Either way, I'm not sure if the current screenshots would be a deal breaker or not if submitted to the main site, perhaps a Cover Admin could way in on this?

Please don't take all my constructive criticism the wrong way, as I said I think it looks great. Many of the covers (including some of mine) shared here in the forums don't look as good as this one, and it's doubly impressive since it's your first try. I just wanted to point out some possible improvements just in case you want to further perfect your cover and maybe even make it an official part of The Cover Project. Feel free to ignore my wall of text if you're happy with it as is. And if you need any pointers or advice on how to undertake any of my suggestions feel free to ask and I'll do my best to help.

And of course, welcome to The Cover Project!

Some screenshots (and I am being serious) were done by the company playing the game on the TV and photographing the TV.  Now, I don't know if this is the case, but sometimes the screenshots are just... THAT... bad

I just checked eBay, and you're right, they really are that crappy. So I'm guessing that the screenshots are fine the way they are Hundo. They could be replaced, but the current images are faithful to the original retail cover. http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/gPEAAOSwrhBZNHin/s-l1600.jpg

@tylerbgood: Thank you and I appreciate your input! This was a tricky project to do for reasons I’ll detail below. And I have to say, I have a newfound respect for the time and effort you guys put into these covers.

This was the only loose game in my small, personal Genesis collection where I could not find a cover, here or elsewhere. And this is one of those games that ONLY came in cardboard boxes, making finding/purchasing one harder and more expensive. I figured the cheapest way to do this was to buy the UGC from retrogamecases.com with the intent to scan and edit the insert and then print it for a clone Genesis clam shell.

A couple of issues quickly became apparent: unfortunately, the cover was not of very high print quality and it was cropped; missing a precious amount of the badass artwork which bothered me. Also, the scanner I used gave me an error if I tried to go higher than 600 DPI nor did it give me the option to descreen for some reason. I had to do that the best I could post scan without making it TOO blurry. For the missing artwork, I found some lower quality scans online and tried to blend them as seamlessly as possible. You might notice some discoloration, blurriness and clone stamping at the edges, but for the most part, I think it looks better with more image. Here is the raw scan I had to work with. Anyone else is free to take a crack at it if they wish.

I agree. I actually made the Playmates logo blurrier on purpose. I guess for consistency. But thanks for finding those logos! I'll change that and see how it looks.

D'oh! You're right! After printing it I felt like the Sega seal was too close to the spine so I moved it literally minutes before uploading it and I didn't scrutinize it closely enough. Good catch.

Yeah, like I said, the source scan wasn't great, IMO. If you look at the raw, you can see how messed the bottom front white text was. I used the paint brush to thicken the white text as best I could. I suppose I could also mess with the levels further to improve the washed out appearance, but when I did printed it out, it was darker and all-in-all looked quite passable and fits with the other scans from cover project well enough for me.

I am a bit of a perfectionist so I will be working on this further this weekend to improve it. Thanks again for your critique!

There are some arts missing for my Mega Japanese collection.

When you have the time you could make these available:

- The Revenge of Shinobi
- Tazmania
- Castlevania Bloodlines
- World of Ilusion
and Road Rash

Take your time. Do it when you're inspired.

No worries, these Mega Drive games are a walk in the park compared to making SNES UGCs or the dreaded PS1 to DVD conversions. I see Sega Retro has a JP scan of Road Rash too, but it's got some sun fading that'll make it more of a challenge. And I just noticed proextecnologia has added a couple more games to his request list as well.

I'm working on The Mask for SNES now, and have a dozen other Super Nintendo requests to fulfill, so go to town on these other Mega Drive games if you'd like!

I've been able to get decent fit before by playing with print settings.

Why do we not have the REAL Sonic & Knuckles on the site, but some goofy cartoony looking version? (By the way, not being able to search "&" in the forums makes searching for this game a bit difficult.

See:

Anyway, I found the real version:

@aaron-hagel Those scans (text / logos) look amazing, but are you scanning with the Descreen option?  It doesn't appear that you are, and don't want your awesome work to not get hosted on the site!  Something just looked really... off... with the Monopoly front and I think it may be because of either the saturation or the over abundance of Moire.  Descreen will remove that.

With some  additional fiddling the cover can be easily fixed.

Unfortunately my scanner has no descreen option.  I would have to use blurring techniques on it, however I feel like that would lose some of the finer points of the original source for the scan I made with them.  If I can ever get a new scanner with a descreen on it I would use that.  I could go back to the original scan and use some blurring on the original cover to remove some of the moire.

I went back and used some blurring on the image here is a new revision of the cover, however until I can get a scanner with software that has a descreen function on it blurring is the only option I will have:

Hello! I'm new in the forum, I would like to contribute with some scans. I want to start with the scan of "Zoom!" as I cannot see it on the Genesis section.

This is the original scan:
https://1drv.ms/u/s!AsDXonOM2-vEgTR8GvEnRiXX5K1b?e=Jvyj78 (https://1drv.ms/u/s!AsDXonOM2-vEgTR8GvEnRiXX5K1b?e=Jvyj78)

And this was my attemp to create a better one:
https://1drv.ms/u/s!AsDXonOM2-vEgTbzxlxgUU5rPcNn?e=SRVmYc (https://1drv.ms/u/s!AsDXonOM2-vEgTbzxlxgUU5rPcNn?e=SRVmYc)

Don't know if my edited scan is suitable for upload to the portal.

Thanks!!

Looks like there is a serviceable cover here for Doom Troopers: http://www.thecoverproject.net/forums/index.php?topic=14362.msg126884#msg126884

If that doesn't work, I can scan it.

I just pointed this out over in the feedback forum, but you probably want to update your copy of that Genesis year 1 template, as it has "cartridge" spelled wrong on the front cover, so there's a whole batch of Genesis game box art files that have said "CARDTRIDGE" on them in big bold letters for like... years.  :P

I'm about to fix all the 1989 game ones that I could find.

Yeah it's so weird - apparently it's been like twelve years and tons of people have been using the original template, downloading box art, selling replacement cases, etc... and never noticed that spelling error! XD

So I see you guys post your new stuff here, but then there is also an upload tool on the main site. Is this mainly for posting new art for feedback before submitting it? Or like, a preview of what's about to be submitted?

What is the prioritization regarding quality versus authenticity? For example, I have this version of the Space Harrier II front cover that I made which includes extensive touch-ups and tweaks to the art plus a completely remade logo so I could get around the washed out look the scanned ones always seemed to have. Would this be a good candidate to submit (along with the rest of the insert of course), or does it deviate from the original too much?

Hi Cryonaut

The upload section of the site wasn't working for a while so everyone was posting there work on the forums in various threads. It's working now but I personally still post my latest on the forums and then upload them to the site as well.

With regard to quality versus authenticity, it's personal preference really, I prefer to make my covers as close to the original as possible but everyone's different.
There's an option to choose custom or retail when you upload your covers to the site.

Nice looking covers by the way

Imgur always degrades the images to 72 dpi, so you may not want to host anything on there that you would like to keep at print quality.
Title: Re: New Genesis/Mega Drive covers....
Post by: Cryonaut on January 09, 2022, 07:43:48 AM
Roger that - thanks guys! I'll get those submitted then, and I'll just stick with imgur for showing off downscaled previews.

I've started working on a project to make black box versions of the games that were released in red boxes, but with a sort of hybrid design that still incorporates elements of the red boxes into the black box grid design. Not sure what the interest level would be when it comes to adding them here though.

Hey d1ggler did you notice that your Cyberball art isn't showing up on the main page? Cyberball is listing as one of the new games under Genesis, but then when you click it there's no actual art there.

On my mission to redesign the red box games into black box versions, I've finished the fronts of all the year five games that were on my to-do list, and now I'm forcing myself to do the spines and backs before I'm allowed to move on to any of the year six games. :P

As iconic as the Ghostbusters logo is by itself, I wanted to give this a little bit of its own identity, so I decided to use a proton beam to split off part of the logo into the 16-bit version from the game's title screen.

idk, while it's based off that game, it's really it's own thing as it's in a different language.  It's also listed separately on the SNES side of things: http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cat_id=8&view=c

Yeah, but I think it should still be considered the same game, much like Doki Doki Panic and SMB2; We're Back/ Agro Saur, Baby T Rex and Bamse on Game Boy. Same as a Japanese version of a US game. My take on it is that gamefaqs gets that stuff correct most of the time, and that's how it should be. IMO anyway.
