>>12096080NiceI've always liked Guest Advanced because it's generally not eye-rapey and the customization is great
>>12096080>the half-broken tv shader, very authentic
>>12096116>retard doesnt know what refresh rate is
Finally another shader thread
>>12096287>>12096295what shaders are these? I've been using crt-geom but I'm not loving how it looks. these look nice
>>12093504By the way i need another 3dfx windows game
Settings: CRT-Royale + NTSC-adaptive; ntsc fringing and artifacting, diffusion weight, bloom underestimate levels, mask type, and border darkness all set to 0; ntsc chroma scaling set to 2; contrast set to .3; simulated crt gamma set to 3.5; min sigma set to .1; triad size set to 6 (or 8 for 256px shit like (S)NES)
I stopped using them altogether because my old LCD 4:3 monitor with fluorescent backlight is actually comfy.
>>12096343upload the slang preset at catbox if necessary
>>12096343Get yourself some new screenshots
My shader for 480i content (it's nice for LRPS2), based on royale-fast: https://files.catbox.moe/05nqdg.slangpNo screenshots because you know the deal with interlaced signals. Just try it.
>>12096327https://pastebin.com/ArRW7unaName it whatever.slangp and put it in the shaders root directory
>>12097218>No screenshotsyou can make a gif or high quality webm.
>>12097765Even a 5 sec webm at maxed out settings (to fit 4chan limits) looks butchered due to the interlaced scanlines effectBest I can do is this https://files.catbox.moe/0v5cda.webm Can be made sharper via shader settings by setting "horiz filter" to 0.
>>12097809looks alright. blurriness is fine, it needs to be there to soften the image like a crt. i'm not convinced by 100% scanlines, prefer something around 33%, but that's just me.thanks for the demonstration.
>>12097809this is what retards who doesnt know what crt shaders does doesnt understand, they think a screenshot is enough.also your webm is good besides 4chins retarded compression.but tone down the scanlines a bit, it looks like PVMeme
>>12097823>>12097851That's just my taste. You can achieve less noticeable scanlines by playing with the settings (although royale's are a bit unclear, if you have a specific question, ask me, even though some settings are still a mystery to me).Also setting the shader to a lower TVL mask helps with hiding the scanlines.
>>12097872just tone down but is your preference.in any case, i think i will pester guest about adding a option for reshade and RA for a proper CRT monitor setting as DgVoodoo2 does as the one Staging uses
A modification of crt-royale-xm29plus (I like this palette a lot even though I know it's not to everyone's taste) for 240p: https://files.catbox.moe/d3unha.slangp
>>12097972
been really enjoying sonkun's shaders. just using the 4k aperture grille composite ntsc one and its been pgood
>>12098013Looks good
>>12098121Using CRT shaders while increasing the internal resolution triggers me
What shaders do people use for PC-98 games?
>>12098115Wow this looks awesome. I need to play some games now. All these screenshots are making me hyped.
>>12098175I asked this question a while back too and anons told me it's more like PC monitor. You can use a subtle SVGA shader to achieve the look.Definitely not some kind of CRT shader
>>12098175a superclean VGA monitor shader
>>12098209
>>12098175I have absolutely no idea what a PC-98 monitor looks like, but with the PC CRT shader I use, the games look like this (using a screenshot I found online and then slapped the shader on top)https://files.catbox.moe/z7ep5m.slangp
Dgvoodoo2's CRT mode does well to emulate PC Monitors of the late 90'sReshade is just to add glow or color
rate pls i'm new to this
>>12098783You've only posted half of an image. You're not showing us what your eyes perceive.
>>12098124Kind of feels like a PC game at that point but could probably compete with Unreal Tournament or some shit
>>12098878the PC port was the same so...but again is unfortunate that you cant use said shaders on the PC port because nightdive is full of fags these days
keep the thread bumped until the spammer fucks offgood nite
i need to tweak reshade later to apply more bloom here
>>12098227What's the name? The model number of a TV or monitor?
>>12099335I don't understand. Do you mean the name of the file? it's randomized. Just rename the shader to whatever you want to.
>>12099973Oh, duh, my bad. For some reason the random catbox link reminded me of the model number of a Zenith television or something
sonkun and genesis games doesnt agree with each other unlike the preset one anon posted here months ago
>>12101448with anon's preset
>>12093504Sonkuns shaders. Later i figured out how to put a sega controller overlay on retroarch.Those shaders are great. I really like that slot mask look. Its very authentic looking to the CTRs we used to play on.
>>12098209I felt alive playing The Shinkaron. What a beautiful game.
>>12098865So by merging two fields you basically turned the shader off. Good job
Shaders hurt my eyes :(
is there any way to add shaders to dolphin? reshade doesn't seem to be compatible with it
Is there a good one size fits all shader that looks good for everything?
>>12103116Eat more carrots, soiteen.Estrogen doesn't give Vitamin A>>12103170Check the renderer for dolphin
>>12103315crt-royale-xm29plus is a good choice. If you want to go deeper tweak the Guest shaders.
>>12102593This ones better
>>12103315No>>12103170If you're on Windows, use ShaderGlass
>>12103450The problem with shader glass is that you cant take screenshots with it, and it still too jankyAlso Dolphin doesnt work with DgVoodoo2 directx stuff, for pure 480p CRT monitor mode that Dgvoodoo2 has
>>12097212get yourself a spoon, and fill it, with Jell-O, Pud-ding.
Rename as Anon'sShadowMaskPreset.slangp https://files.catbox.moe/618gdj.slangpThis is the /vr/ preset that was posted here a while ago
>>12103715can you use this with reshade? i hate retroarch's ui
>>12103780nope, but you can use with shaderglass
>>12103812Neat, here's mine
why use sonkun over the default guest advanced in ra?
>>12103856nice
>>12103859Both are gay. Sonkun's just some overhyped dude making GA's presets, while standard default GA settings aren't nothing special. Best is to be your own man and tweak your own settings. It's fun and rewarding to learn the stuff too, and in the end you can fine-tune the shaders to your exact taste instead of depending on others.
>>12103715how do i use this because it keeps giving me an error even if i have vulkan set
>>12104006retroarch/shaders/Anon'sShadowMaskPreset.slangp
>>12104021>>12104027so sonkun preset has the best sonic water test it seems but it changes colors too much for sotnfor sotn I prefer the blurrier crt royale but its also a bit too darkI like to use guest advanced hd as default for all games if I cant be bothered
>>12104013No specific path? Like putting them in the crt folder or preset or ntsc?
>>12104307just put at the root shaders folder anon, it will load all you need out of boxAlso that anon didnt make only that shadowmask preset, he also made a apperture grille one which i will post screenshots comparing with rgb/s-video/composite later with both of his presets
>>12103715p cool

Shaders not needed if you can play at og res, no scaling
>>12104395god i thought i just raped my PC with a virus and this thing was just a payload because i forgot i had steam open and so when i pressed the button to get to the retroarch menu steam went into big-screen mode but all i saw was some random program opening and my heart sank
>>12102593ui expensive
>>12104684And yet, playing at original res doesn't blend the sonic waterfalls
>>12104684>neededIrrelevant term.No one NEEDS to play games at all. We choose to play.Same thing with shaders.
>1080p 60hz ips (i am here)>1440p 180hz va miniled with rgb subpixels (pic related)>4k 120hz oledis 1440p good enough? assume going from 1080p to 1440p will feel more impactful than 1440p to 4k and the Q27G40XMN miniled seems to have cyber's seal of approval based on the rtings review so I'm leaning towards that over shelling out for an oled.
>>12104395Here it is as i promisedhttps://imgur.com/a/63IXPnXAlso here are both presets with said screenshots included using Super Metroid to comparehttps://files.catbox.moe/e9q2m0.7z
>>121054981440p is good enough
how do I use shaders like this without having to use retroarch? That and shade glass are all I've ever seen and the latter doesn't work on win7>>12103885my game looked more like the first image on VGA mode
