Finally you was fortunate, manic23! This overlay is useful as visual reference, and a good visual reference is essential; but I´m afraid the real adjustement could require open the vectrex and touch zones around the CRT, a dangerous operation in inexperienced hands, since you need discharge the cathode ray tube before.

Thanks centaura, it's all sorted. My Veccy was away being recapped by an expert I know and he has completed the adjustement using the test cart rev 4 on the 72 in 1 cart, so all done!

Happy to know it. From now, you can use the minestorm overlay to test around any light screen offset, since we hope keep our vectrexes finely running along ages

Can I ask what that link was jasonbar? It would seem that the link is either broken or has been changed. All I see is:- "The item you selected cannot be viewed. Please make a selection from the menu to continue."

Please make a selection from the menu to continue."It was another hot item on atari2600.com that got snatched up quickly: a Minestorm overlay. Here's another: www.ebay.com/itm/321363785225Not sure what's up with the double image in this guy's overlay pictures...perhaps he printed a copy onto the envelope & then put the overlay on the envelope to make it difficult to see... -Jason
