Masterful work as always thank you so much!

Thanks for the words of encouragement.

Hey @Cyber , I’m using the latest CyberLab prest and HSM Shader pack releases. Some presets do not load. Any idea ?

[WARN] [Shaders]: Could not read shader preset in #reference line: "D:\EMULADORES\RetroArch\shaders\Mega_Bezel_Packs\CyberLab\MBZ__0__Smooth-Advance_Full_Reflections\1080p_Optimized_Presets\CyberLab__RGB-Sharp__1080p__PVM-Edition__ADV".

Just add a .slangp to the end of this line then save it and it should be good to go.

Will fix it up when I get a chance.

You can try the new pack and see if it’s working now.

Tap on image then zoom in for best viewing. Desktop users, right click then Open in New Tab, then press F11 for FullScreen. Non 4K users, zoom in until it looks correct.

It looks like the reference line you placed in Soqueroeu’s Genesis preset is wrong. You put Mega-Bezel-Packs when it should be Mega_Bezel_Packs.

The reference line in the preset is correct.

#reference "../../../../Mega_Bezel_Packs/Soqueroeu-TV-Backgrounds_V2.0/presets/TV-Console/Sega_Genesis.slangp"

What’s probably wrong is @Sus123 's installation folder. It should be as you said Mega_Bezel_Packs and not Mega-Bezel-Packs.

By the way @Sus123, in the future when posting content such as a log or other text that you would want to be easily readable, you can enclose it in the parentheses which look like the less than and more than signs with the forward slash in the middle.

So you can rename the installation folder to match what is stated above and it should work fine.

In the future, I might update the reference lines so that it doesn’t really matter what the name of the installation folder is, just the depth of the folder structure.

i thought it was right but it wasnt and i got it fixed

[Cyber]

I’m glad you got it working. @Sus123

Don’t forget to edit the post and put the log in the parentheses next to the " if you can please. It will make for a much cleaner presentation.

but it Soqueroeu is so Small it’s Funi XD

@Sus123

It’s not small if you’re using a big screen TV and sitting just a few feet away.

im using a Pc thats why lol

I’m using a PC too…with a 55" TV hooked up to it…

[hgoda90]

Yeah I couldn’t clearly tell if it was the folder or reference line that had Mega-Bezel-Packs.

I would really like to know after all of these, what kind of image were you trying to achieve with your presets? i kinda have an idea of which, it could be like some sort of sharp in some presets trying to simulate a sharp ntsc effect?.

also i would like to know about this, are your masks based on consumer grade crt?

Mega Bezel Reflection Shader! - Feedback and Updates

I don’t need it per say but it would be nice to have it formally preserved and made more accessible because of how “official” (authentic) it looks in its current state. I can see some users passing through who might dig that look and want to use it themselves. As for this, I have a couple presets of my own that may or may not have been directly or indirectly influenced and inspired by these and other sets that you can checkout if you wish. They aim to replicate the imaginary line of CyberLab …

TheNamec - Mega Bezel Packs Amiga, Commodore 64, VIC20, CRTgaming soon

No, not at all, just the imaginary ones in my head. Lol Where necessary I would put in the work to try to sort out some of the tricks and effects like dithering and transparency but my main aim is to create something that looks great to me without straying too much from the original presentation. I also aim to eliminate anything that stands out, causes distraction and breaks the immersion. That’s what I’m after, a truly immersive experience, which appeals to my nostalgia senses and allows me t…

Please show off what crt shaders can do!

These look absolutely gorgeous to me on a 55" from 8ft to 10ft away! It’s actually the type of look I’ve been searching for since I had to give up the original Death To Pixels for Analog Shader Pack 3.0 cgp preset. These aren’t intended to resemble a 90’s or 00’s high res computer monitor. My inspiration for this is more of an old Zenith “Boob Tube” Shadow Mask. If you look at most of my presets they’re around the 300TVL mark. Based on user feedback as well as an effort to match certain…

CyberLab Mega Bezel Death To Pixels Shader Preset Pack

To me this is all subjective. I’ve posted several screenshots over the past few months showing whatever latest preset and filter combination I’ve been using. It’s as easy as seeing which presets are used in one of those screenshots then trying it. The Blargg Video Filter presets generally do the same thing, just with varying levels of resolution and sharpness, so again, you can use whichever you find looks good to you. For Arcade Games, I don’t use any Blargg Filters nor Composite like setti…

NTSC shaders redux

Even though I have lots of random CRT photos I don’t have a curated or organized group of reference photos like this. I mostly developed my presets based on memory and just on what I find looks and feels right. I would be exposed to pictures and come across photos and videos in these forums as well as on reddit and YouTube though but it’s mostly random stuff. At times I might experiment using reference images to fine tune certain things though but it’s mostly just by eyeballing and what’s in m…

@Theoldnation

i would like to know your evaluation on this

That’s a bit vague.

What specifically are you trying to find out?

Also, is it related to any issue with the CyberLab Mega Bezel Death To Pixels Shader Preset Pack?
