Crt-Geom + Glcore in Windows 10 = Retroarch Crash!

Tsik · 31 January 2025 14:23

Hello to the community.

I’m using Win10 on both of my desktop PCs, Retroarch version 1.20 (I believe the problem started back on 1.19.1 as i updated the ‘shaders_slang’ through Retroarch) and I experience Retroarch crash when trying to use crt-geom.slangp shader preset with glcore driver. The shader keeps crashing Retroarch every time on both PCs and works only with Vulkan or D3d driver. I use glcore because is compatible with both of my PCs since only one of them runs under Vulkan. (The other is a bit of a potato pc )

To solve my problem (hopefully temporarily) I’ve downloaded an older version of the ‘crt-geom.slang’ shader from 1.19.1 vanilla installation replasing the new-one and for now works fine.

Any Information will be appreciated, if needed I can post a debug-log file.

Thanks in advance

Hmm, I couldn’t reproduce here in linux. Can you get a log of the crash?

Wow that was Super-Fast!

Wright now I’m in front of my SUPER-POTATO pc after updating the shaders from the Updater (it used to work perfect even on this machine).
I also checked another shader which worked in the past and now doesn’t like ‘crt-geom-tate’
Yet another log using crt-geom-tate shader:

Unfotunately I’m new to the forum and i don’t know any other way to post a log file other than copy-paste since the upload does not support uploading it, that’s why use bullets for easier reading!

Thank you in advance

When i run the same under Vulkan everything seems to work fine!
If you need any information or anything else to try and report back, i will be happy to help.

I hope this is better…

Oh! And I just realize (actually a few days back) that I wrote the word “Crash” on the title wrong!

Sorry for that! .

Is any way to correct it?

hunterk · 29 January 2025 13:23

if the ‘edit’ button is gone, it’s stuck how it is, but no worries. I know what you mean

So, those logs show the crash, but they don’t give any errors, just blank lines. We’ll have to see if we can get anyone else to repro.

After a lot of experimenting and thinking about what is going on with the shader i couldn’t manage to log the actual error other than:

'[INFO] [slang]: Compiling shader: "G:\+Emulators\RetroArch (Multi-core) emulator\shaders\shaders_slang\crt\shaders\crt-geom.slang".
'[INFO] [slang]: Building pass #0 (N/A)

But if I’m not mistaken the new version of crt-geom.slang brings some new mask properties.

So I’m asking, if i could comment/disable any specific part of the code in the slang file and test afterwards?

I 'm not a developer of any kind neither have previous experience in developing shader files other than batch scripts but i think maybe I could try to do that … (if someone tells me how)

The fact that the shader works pretty nice on the same “Super-Potato” PC just by changing the driver to d3d (10/11 it does not matter) and setting the shader pass and filter both to “Default” i got about 60FPS with the Mesen core.

It looks like the shader has become at least more resource demanding.

Tsik · 31 January 2025 10:45

Digging a-bit more into whats changed I found that @Tatsuya79 made some updates about 4 months before to the slang shader file itself and so I tried to copy the code from whats was before the change and guess what… it worked!

The new file now looks identical (except the beautification) to the file i took from Retroarch 1.19.1. So now I know just know whats exactly was changed…

As @Tatsuya79 nicely commented on Github he was bringing some number of masks from the deluxe version into standard crt-geom which by itself is wonderful news but unfortunately it makes the shader at least more resource demanding although this does not justify the crashing with the glcore driver (humble thinking) .

Perhaps he could help.

The question now is ‘can the shader or the driver be “fixed”’ or I have to stick with the old version from now on?

Any way thanks again in advance.

Tatsuya79 · 31 January 2025 12:05

It’s not crashing for me with glcore (nvidia 4070).
Probably an old gpu driver issue? No idea if that can be avoided with a different code.

You can use the older code if that’s better for you, I’m not sure what is the perf impact of having the masks option. I don’t see any here but I’m on a capable modern PC.

Thank you for answering.

Please allow me to recap using a fresh RetroArch installation and explain:

PC No1: Windows 10 (Fresh RetroArch Installation)

Intel® Core™ i3-3220 CPU @ 3.30GHz (Intel HD graphics) 4,00 GB RAM
No Vulkan support (obviously )
Most of the other “simple (not with multipasses, not “heavy”)” shaders (except the new crt-geom and crt-geom-tate) are working pretty nice even in 1.20.0.
Till Retroarch 1.19.1 everything was working - no problem. After updating just the shaders (even in 1.19.1) crt-geom and crt-geom-tate crashes RetroArch only on glcore driver.
With D3D10/11 Retroarch do not crash, the shader is loading but the games are literally unplayable (FPS: 30 MEM: 3455.29/3991.71MB)

I 'm not obviously expecting nothing more from that machine but play some lightweight cores with a simple crt shader and a simple bezel, something that was doable before.

PC No2: Windows 10 (Fresh RetroArch Installation)

Intel® Core™ i5-6500 CPU @ 3.20GHz with AMD Radeon ™ R7 370 Series with 8 GB RAM
Vulkan support
Capable of running even Duimon’s mega-bezel “[STD]-[Guest]” shaders with FPS: 60.00 MEM: 4014.07/8144.06 MB on glcore
Till Retroarch 1.19.1 everything was working - no problem. After updating the shaders (even in 1.19.1) here crt-geom, and tate failing to load with glcore (crt-geom-deluxe was always failing with glcore on this pc).
All of the other slang shaders work on that driver.
Vulkan works perfect with everything. eg. using crt-geom-deluxe I get a steady FPS: 60.00 MEM: 3971.10/8144.06 MB
D3D10/11 works perfect just like Vulkan

This second machine its pretty old too but it was pretty capable of playing even PS1 games with crt-geom loaded. I just do not understand the sudden crashing and the loading fail after updating the shaders.

Anyway now that i make myself more understandable I will just stick with the old working version of crt-geom until something happens in future updates or perhaps somone suggest any crt shader similar to crt-geom to use alongside the imgborder.slang in my custom presets or anything else like that.

Thank you all so, so much!

ps. Thank you @gouchi for fixing the title and tidy up the logs.
