Standard 4:3 Aspect Ratio Overlay

Tired of widescreen 16:9? Downgrade to 4:3 and enjoy the nostalgia!

So, I went ahead and recreated my 4:3 overlay from scratch. This overlay does exactly what it says on the tin... and only what it says on the tin. The texture file itself is at a resolution of 4096 x 64, so it's only sharp and crisp where it needs to be. And at a size of just 256 KB (compared to the ridiculous 8 MB that the old overlay was), it should be a much faster download and it should be far less taxing on performance!

Other aspect ratio overlays I've created...
> 21:9 (Ultrawide)
> 23.5:1 (Cinematic)

Instructions...
1. Create an Effects track if one doesn't already exist for your project
2. Right-click on the Effects track and select Add Clip to Track to... well, you know
3. Click on Material Overlay Effect
4. Right-click on the newly-created clip and select Show in Element Viewer
5. Next to material, select that elipsis button next to the text box
6. Type in "mdeltax/4-3" in the Filter box and make sure either All Mods or workshop are selected
7. Select the VMT file listed as "overlays/mdeltax/4-3.vmt"
