Sonkun, is there anyway I can port your shaders to like Dolphin and PCSX2? Like I really really want your shaders on there, I am struggling over here with raw pixels lol.

The only options I can think of is Reshade but then you’d have to port some of the other shaders I have mixed in like “sgenpt-mix multpass” and koko-aio’s amazing “switchres” shader. Not to mention that I went out of my way to fuse the ntsc adaptive shader with guest.r’s hd shader for a different look.
Then I think there’s that Windowcast option. I still haven’t used either option yet.

Hi, about my 960p thing. Here is what I get with non-integer scaling, full screen. Does it look decent to you ?
The mask seems clean on the title screen but many artifacts appear in the green flat background of the gameplay screen, don’t you think ?
I would have like to compare with another setup (1240x1080 integer overscale 1:1) which how I would play on another handheld, but I cannot make screenshots on my PC Retroarch as soon as I select integer scaling and the shaders, for some reason.

I would have some nice gaming sessions with that from what I see so I say it still looks just as good as loading it up on a 1080p display. How does Shadow Mask look?

Thanks for your super quick answer. I did similar screenshots with the shadow mask still composite (core provided AR, crop overscan).
That’s much cleaner IMHO, don’t you think ? It’s really super impressive provided what is given to the shader preset (non integer, crop…)

I think you ended up putting up your previous Slot Mask pics from your last post by mistake. Looks like Slot Mask again there.
Indeed. I’ve just modified my post above so as not to pollute that much this already VERY long thread.

Pollute it I don’t mind lol. But yes that is the magic of the amazing guest advanced hd shader at work there, even now I still learn new things about it.
Is that for S-Video and Composite for the Dolphin and PCSX2?

Are such shaders presets super heavy ? I mean, I’d like to run it on an handheld device with a Snapdragon 865 (that of Samsung S20). I don’t have the device yet, so I’m asking

It’s for any console you want to use it for. I’d personally use composite for everything up to the Dreamcast/PS2/,Gamecube era, RGB for arcade and pc games, everything after that is just native wide-screen upscaled.
The S20 should be more than fast enough to handle my presets.

sdm865 should be able to run these shaders just fine. Just make sure you set the video driver to Vulkan.

Nice to see you around these parts. Welcome to the forum.

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.
In the pack there is not any guest shaders folder. Only sonkun with 3 subfolders. Do you mean to rename it to guest?

No, that is from guest.r’s downloaded shader pack, that’s a whole different download that you have to get separately, the link for it is also there.

So out of curiosity I searched to see if there ever was a OLED tv made with standard traditional RGB subpixels and to my surprise there actually was one made back in 2013:
https://www.blvdhome.com/product/samsung-s9c-series-55-1080p-oled-smart-tv-black-kn55s9cafxza-60614
Only thing is that it’s only 1080p and it’s out of stock and probably cost a fortune to find on the market these days. Still a Interesting find.

This is from a 4K OLED, an LG CX I believe.
LG CX has WRGB subpixels?
Edit:
This?

Yep, do note that WOLED, W-OLED, WRGB and RWBG are all used interchangeably to refer to LG Display’s OLED panels which include an additional White Subpixel.

I see. Forgot there were other acronyms used, all of those are the exact tvs I’m avoiding. If the tv I posted did 4k instead of just 1080p I would hunt that tv down regardless of price. From the little research I did that seems to be the only OLED literally in existence that does standard old traditional jail bar type RGB subpixels without any white subpixels in it.
Although it’s only 1080p that S9C OLED is rare to me, wouldn’t mind trying that out simply for testing purposes.
