Jobima crt guest advanced presets

[Jobima]

I want to share my presets of crt guest advanced (thanks guest.r for his great work in it), they are generic and I tweaked them to get blend of the good of CRT with Composite but with less artifacts (that in all versions except the last V3 which has analog artifacts but not clearly or it’s unobtrusively, in other words it should not be annoying)

Download Link: https://www.mediafire.com/file/1w7bndv5f081rvw/Jobima+CRT+Retroarch+Preset+V3.34.rar/file

Extract them and put them in RetroArch\shaders

Note: You need the latest update of guest.r’s latest shader, quote from sonkun (with some Edits) for how to update

@sonkun

For this update you will also need guest.r’s latest shader update for my presets to display properly, you can grab it here. Download the " Newest version" one

Installation Guide for guest.r updated shaders:

0. Make sure your slang shaders are up to date by going to Online Updater/Update Slang Shaders.
1. Download and extract the pack.
2. Go to wherever you have your RetroArch shaders folder and then go to shaders_slang/crt then delete the 5 guest advance shaders in that folder which are “crt-guest-advanced-fast.slangp”, “crt-guest-advanced-fastest.slangp”, “crt-guest-advanced-hd.slangp”, “crt-guest-advanced-ntsc.slangp” and “crt-guest-advanced.slangp” and replace them with the 5 from the downloaded pack.
3. From the same crt folder go inside the “shaders” folder at the top and then look for a “guest” folder, delete that then replace it with the one from the downloaded pack that’s also in the “shaders” folder and that’s it, you’re done. You’ve now successfully updated guest.r shaders.

The main one is “Jobima CRT Preset V3.slangp” should work with anything without upscale

“Jobima CRT Preset Smooth 480i V3.slangp” same as above but it’s better for PS1 era Games

“Jobima CRT Preset 4x V3.slangp” should work with 4 time resolution upscale (tested with PS1 games and work fine)

“Jobima CRT Preset 4x Adaptive V3.slangp” same as above but if you set Adaptive Smoothing

Here some Images

For old V3 or V2 or V1 (For comparison or if you prefer their look) see the post below

There are also fast non-guest in the post below (until I open another Topic for them, if I ever do)

====================================================

So I did some bold changes, so it’s V3 now https://www.mediafire.com/file/xc2sfn64hu7u861/Jobima_CRT_Retroarch_Preset_Old_V3.rar/file

V2 https://www.mediafire.com/file/49edrbss8te4kat/Jobima+CRT+Retroarch+Preset+V2.rar/file

Edit: old V2 https://www.mediafire.com/file/gd9ben7cykydcmv/Jobima_CRT_Retroarch_Preset_Old_V2.rar/file

The V1

Old (V2)

New (V2)

Old (V3)

I will keep V1 and V2 for now (maybe I will remove them later maybe never), Old (V2) most likely be deleted

Edit: Seems I did gone too bold, so I did upload another update with less bold changes

[sonkun]

So you used a bit of that new color edge setting I see, I guess it’ll serve useful depending on what your end goal is. Mines was to get the cleanest sharpest composite image I can obtain and that setting serves its purpose ten times over, I can’t stress how much of a big deal that one setting is for me.

[Jobima]

Yes it’s useful feature since you can’t sharp the Chroma, I don’t like the very sharp image, also the sharp chroma does not fit Dracula eye in symphony of the night

[sonkun]

Kind of figured from your shots above you were aiming for the “Dracula Eyes” look. Yeah I think cranking that setting up will get anything but that look, then again I don’t know since I never tried tweaking for that specific look.

[Jobima]

I did small update, new V2 should give that Dracula eye in symphony of the night look, or at least it so close

Edit: I did added V3

[Jobima]

I did yet another update to V3, below how “Dracula Eyes” look now

Also I did clean the topic/thread, so the new update with new images in the first op post

[Jobima]

I did an update, it’s V3.3 now

now it so close to that CRT image, not only in “Dracula Eyes” look
