Jobima crt guest advanced presets

Sonic UltraSaturn with reshade (as dxgi.dll) with my JobimaCRT_guest_advancedV8 and 424x240 resolutions

4 Likes

i’m confused about the resolution preprocessor definitions. I am trying to use PCSX2, which runs the game at 512x448 internal resolution, and i have a 2560x1440 monitor. I have aspectsize_x set to 1920 (because the game is 4:3), so should i set resolution x/y to 512x448, or 640x480? Does this change if i decide to increase the internal resolution in PCSX2?

Is there anyway that I can you use your settings on reshade with seeing my retroachievements clear on PCSX2? It’s really annoying that I cannot. I wish PCSX2 had the same post processing settings as duckstation.

well it’s still readable I think

also LRPS2 core now is ok (unless you need pressure-sensitive)

both PCSX2 and duckstation dont care about CRT shaders, aside from libretro/retroarch we can only hope for ares emu to get retroachievements and support PS2, or maybe BizHawk to get librashader support

I mean has been updated? Cuz man I rather that than PCSX2. At least Duckstation lets me use ntsc guest advanced and I can see the retroachievements clearly.

yes, also it has Parallel-GS which is not available in PCSX2 (at least now) which been updated in LRPS2 https://github.com/libretro/ps2/issues/100

I noticed this before it went closed-source, and I tried it and found it had some problems. It was based on a reshade version and hadn’t been updated in a long time. As far as I know, it was removed after the move to closed source.

Personally, I wouldn’t use anything closed-source, especially when open-source alternatives exist. Beetle PSX Core is very good, particularly since I don’t need upscaled riddled with problems and overburdening the PS1’s art style with more resolution than it designed for

same settings with Sonic Mania (with 1x and full screen) using reshade as d3d9.dll

There’s SwanStation, BeetlePSX-HW and BeetlePSX Cores available for PS1 and LRPS2 for PS2. What’s the problem?

Rabbitstation …

The PCSX2 doesn’t let me use the NTSC GUEST ADVANCED PRESET. I also play games like The Bouncer, MGS2, MGS3, and the GTA games for pressure sensitive controls. I’m trying to find a great medium, here.

new update V8.15:- (this time I didnt update the OP, will do when retroarch sync with the guest in updates)

https://www.mediafire.com/file/lyrpxclz40kn65n/Jobima+CRT+Retroarch+Preset+V8.15.rar/file

https://www.mediafire.com/file/fl6h3fligrbwd35/All-in-1+Jobima+Presets+V1.277.rar/file

and the reshade https://www.mediafire.com/file/10gf66nzn8gullm/Jobima+crt+guest+advanced+V8.15+presets+for+reshade.rar/file

all also in “ManualUpdates” tree of my github repo https://github.com/Jobima1st/Jobima-Presets/tree/ManualUpdates

the reshade preset (better call it mod at this point) is uptodate with last crt guest advanced update, plus the AspectSize will not crop the original image now, it will overlay the shader image on top (so now you can see the text and menu of PCSX2 for example); if you ask if I will update https://github.com/Jobima1st/CRT-Guest-ReShade then the answer is “unlikely”, at least for now

Just a small notice for people that might not see the difference.

  • The ‘Sonic Team’ in the first image is a little bit sharper.
  • On the Sonic mania picture you can notice the changes in the black outlines of the ‘Mania’ text. Specifically, the red text is what I notice the most. You can also see a little bit of the darkening, black outline on the ‘Plus’ text above the ‘PRESS ANY BUTTON’ text.

:sob: The images are not the same frame :sob:

I dont think I can do save state trick that I do in retroarch in the windows games, so I dont think I can use the same frame to take images easily

anyway

Oh, I assumed you were using window cast. Finding a game with a screen that is static or easily reproducible is such a specific and niche problem to solve. What games do you have?

the question should be, “what the games that were designed with 240p that I have?” outside the old consoles not that much, also I dont like how modern devs did the 240p most of the times (even if I use Sonic UltraSaturn in tests I dont like how it did 240p, but Sonic mania seems perfect)

have a look at this CRT-Guest-Advanced, HD and NTSC for ReShade!

update reshade preset to crt-guest-advanced-2026-06-06-release1 (slang preset dont need update to use crt-guest-advanced-2026-06-06-release1)
