Hi, I followed all of these steps:
- You MUST use Retroarch Version 1.9.0 or Later (It will fail to load on earlier versions)
- If you have previous versions of the Mega Bezel installed:
- Delete shaders/shaders_slang/bezel/shaders/HyperspaceMadness
- Delete all hsm presets from shaders/shaders_slang/bezel
- Inside the .zip is a shaders folder, drop this shaders folder directly over your existing one and everything will go into the right place
- Set video driver to Vulcan (It will run in GLCore but seems 2x faster in Vulcan)
- Set video aspect ratio to your monitor aspect ratio e.g. 16:9
- Set integer scale to OFF
- Load a preset in the shaders menu, mega bezel shaders are found in shaders_slang/bezel
However, I am unfortunately still getting “Failed to apply shader preset: MBZ__0__GUEST-DrVENOM.slangp” when, for instance, I try to apply that shader. I’ve tried some others and it seems to work with “MBZ__1__GLASS_GUEST-DrVenom.slangp” although it’s very unnaturally dark and the bezel seems to be partially missing somehow? Most of the shaders simply fail to apply unfortunately. Any advice? I truly have followed all of the directions.
EDIT: I was originally trying to get the files from the github and it wasn’t working out for me. Once I used the earlier link I was able to get things working, but now I probably don’t have the most up-to-date versions of the shaders, right?
DOUBLE EDIT: I also had a version of hsm-mega-bezel I believe from the regular retroarch shader repository at some point that must’ve been pretty old and I had fine performance with it. Now for some reason (since deleting those and installing the version supplied by the OP here) I have much worse performance, at least in Beetle PSX HW.
I’m playing FF7 and everything is running quite slowly, but oddly enough speedup still works to get me to over 120fps, and if I have a different window over the screen such that Retroarch is running in the background it speeds up as well, even in a battle with all of the reflections still processing in realtime… I don’t really understand it, and it seems like my computer should be able to handle this, but can’t figure out what the issue is now. I have a GTX 1070TI and an i5-3570k if that’s pertinent.
