Actually this is the only mask at 1080p when you get close to screen you can tell you looking a mask, the rest of Guest.r-Dr.Venom masks don’t look convincing and look artificial, except lottes mask 1 that should need at least 1440p and 6x scaling.
Another small tweak to try to create a slot mask with mask 0 (mask 9). There is an option under mask option for mask scale 4x (1080p) or 6x (1440p). Both these masks work directly to full Guest.r-Dr.Venom version but i use the small version for convenience (screens from full version).

Here’s a gift for everyone for the holidays, I revamped my previous custom guest shader preset. Previously I always used the crtsim shader in all my presets, this time around I ditched it and started using the NTSC guest advanced shader with grade thrown into the mix. I made two different types:
one for Arcade/32/64/128 bit/480i/handhelds:
And one for 8/16/PC systems like Sharp x68000, PC-98 etc

You also must have the latest guest shader update for my shaders to display properly, you can get the latest update here.
And if you prefer the warm colors over the cool colors in the first preset simply go into the parameters and press start on “White Point” and it’ll go back to default. Hope you all enjoy.
Awesome, these look lovely!
Seems that the time is right for me to add these as presets for the Mega Bezel!
Thanks for your great presets
Im glad you like them and yes please add them, they’ll make a nice addition. These presets will be replacing my previous ones going forward, I love how the “ntsc phase” parameter auto picks the right phase for each system, phase 2 displays the rainbow effect properly in the bar stage of Streets of Rage 2 and displays Sonic’s shield the way it’s suppose to look in Sonic 1 while with snes it auto switches to phase 3
I wish the mask didn’t fade with increased brightness, I think instead you should do a multiplication of the rgb values to increase brightness. Just my opinion.
I think the only mask that looks even halfway convincing in a close-up is mask 0, everything else just kinda looks like a mess IRL.
The last screenshots are a different thing, the idea is the same but the scanline function now knows the actual brightness of each pixel. In fact there is a relationship between them. If in example you have a full white, it’s 10% blue, 30% red, 60% green. Now the function knows this relationship and uses it
Plus I did some research and when you use RxBxGx the blue is way less bright and creates a huge gap in xBx section so I think it should be raised a bit (normally blue is next to extra bright green, but here is next to xBx, 2 very dark stripes).
IMO the mask 0 should be 1.1,m+0.1,1.2 and m+0.1,1.0,m.
I’m not sure I understand. I’m not really seeing any gaps in the photo I just posted…?
If you move a bit away from the screenshot, Blue isn’t even visible. It’s buried between the gaps
That’s probably happening due to the mask strength being less than 100%.
This was close to a slot mask CRT I played awhile ago. I modified it to be closer to my memory. It bugs me when the slot masks mushes into a waffle pattern in the brights but if it is too prominent you lose contrast. I also like the glow in the negative with this one. This variation is sorta a nice Slot Mask TV with a very nice composite input that keeps things sharp.

My only real critique of the preset itself is the scanlines are a tad “soft” imho. (I’m comparing them to a Mister running component out into a slotmask CRT I own)
Besides that your shots look nice. I like the preset overall.
Shot of my CRT, sorry its potato quality but phone said no, and I was too lazy to upload to another site for a quality boost (I’ll try to do better next time )
That’s a nice tweak right there. I noticed you changed the slot mask width from 3 to 4 and now the slot mask looks all wiggly looking in certain areas of the screen, I assume that was intentional tho
Pic is definitely blurry but I can at least see the scanlines you’re talking about. I forget which parameter makes the scanlines thicker, I think scanline beam shape center? I’ll have to mess around with the settings
For me it looks straight at 4 and wiggly at 3. My resolution is 1920x1200 with integer scaling off.
It’s so hard to accurately get how CRT’s are in person. The slot mask CRT I played on a few months ago had such a sharp mask and tons of color bleeding and artifacts.
Has anyone witnessed flickering (brightness pulsating) on the Windows desktop shortly after using a crt shader on a gsync monitor? Each time I’ve used the Crt Royale shader in Retroarch (Mupen64plus) this happens shortly after playing, even after closing Retroarch. I have to turn my monitor off for a while to stop the desktop flickering. I love this shader but surely I can’t be alone with this issue…
My bad, I meant to say I’m using the Crt geom shader when this happens. I tried to edit my post above but its still awaiting approval.
