it seems work nicer than other fast shaders preset I made, but it’s a bit slower than them

The spikes are sharp but not blocky looking. Zoomed in I see the edges of the scanlines around the white number text what setting adjusts that?
another “TV 480i” test with the last update (only in All-in-1 Jobima Presets for now), using last guest updates and phosphor-persistence
Jobima CRT Preset TV 480i V8.06
keep in mind that the real quality not show up because of video compression and there are out of sync problem in obs that make interlaced video worst sometimes
–======–
The OP didnt updated yet since there will be another update to add PAL preset
PAL preset test
I spent all my time with PAL on this game, and this kinda similar to how I remember it (thanks to guest.r for adding PAL)
anyway, here the PAL preset for now

new update V8.07 in the OP

What’s the difference between this and the AfterGlow parameter which is already included in Crt-guest-advanced?
1 Like
As far as I know AfterGlow can not be used in the end of preset, also AfterGlow dont fill the interlace gaps but it seems it only fill the edge
more info about AfterGlow and interlace
while phosphor-persistence work whether at the beginning or the end of the preset, also it operates like a real CRT, blindly, and doesn’t skip the gaps between the fields, therefore, its suitable if the goal is to accurately simulate how the interlace system works in CRT televisions
more info about phosphor-persistence and interlace
anyway, I used phosphor-persistence only for “TV 480i” presets, regular presets still use AfterGlow

new update, to use last guest update features
also this update use new crt-black_crush-koko to get better crt-like black levels in bright scenes

EDIT I got it working! Had to restart RA and that fixed it somehow.
Hi.
I’ve been trying to use your shaders but for some reason they fail to load. I place them in the parent directory like instructed. Other presets like sonkun’s work just fine. Did I miss a step?

same problem here.
To add the all-in-1 presets that goes in \shaders\shaders_slang\presets\ didnt work either.
seems you use d3d* like d3d11, which seems not working at all with TV 480i (except V7 TV 480i) presets (which I think because phosphor-persistence), in that case you should use glcore if you dont have Vulkan
Hello, I’ve been a passive reader just checking in for shaders update, I finally created an account for this topic 
So I tried to delete the whole slang_shaders to start fresh from the latest Online-update, and some your last update did not work : I see you have implemented the move from …/…/…/crt/shaders to …/…/…/crt/crt-effects/shaders, for crt-resswitch-glitch-koko.slang but it was not done in these 6

Hi and welcome
yes, those were forgotten, I will do a silent update to fix them today, thanks for the report

up to 2025-11-16-r1 version.
make sure to do the #0

It worked, thanks, I almost never update the shaders, only the guest ones.
