Just “showing off” some of my latest and greatest preset variations in action!

On another note IrfanView 64 is a real gem of a tool for quickly and easily reducing 4K PNGs to forum size, while disabling chroma subsampling for preserving even more mask quality!

[ChromeConsole]

Wow. That’s a big difference!

[jeffersonomsi]

Does anyone have a working link, or similar with the same quality?

[Hyllian]

You just need to load preset crt-hyllian-sinc-glow (or any other crt-hyllian variant) and set these two parameters:

PHOSPHOR_LAYOT = 22.00
MASK_INTENSITY = 1.0

Follow my Samsung QD-OLED investigation over on the Sony Megatron thread:

So what better way to make the cost of living crisis really hit home than to buy a bloody expensive new TV! Yes I’ve told the bailiffs to go f*#k themselves whilst I get pictures for you all of my new Samsung 65" S95B QD-OLED TV (temporarily mine at least until my wife comes home at which point she’ll be divorcing me for spending the children’s shoe money on new AV equipment). Anyway here are the first few pictures (and yes I need to update all my presets now as the values are radically differe…

Virtua Racing slot mask preset, more here:

Here’s some pics of slot mask VR racing on the S95B. When you zoom right in you can see the ‘bobble’ on the horizontal wires but when you zoom out it vanishes which is how it works in person. Do zoom in on the third close up picture to see both the slot mask and pixels making up the phosphors in detail and in HDR. Apart from the bobble even the slightly larger gap between the blue and red pixels (vertical wires) work well as they seem to match the height of the horizontal wires [Screenshot_20…

Just wanted to say thanks to @guest.r, @HyperspaceMadness, @Dogway, @aliaspider, @Hyllian and all other shader developers who contributed to HSM Mega Bezel Reflection Shader and made this all possible.

[HackeMate]

Very happy with this settings:

This is the only screenshot for now. I need to get some sleep while I still can.

EDIT: More screenshots. Also I will use this opportunity to admit that “Piece” was configured in no small degree around Alisia Deena Rain’s thighs.

Unfortunately I’m noticing some inconsistencies in the new “Piece” presets I wouldn’t be able to forgive myself for… if not for the fact that I worked on them late between work days. The NTSC presets lack my afterglow settings it’s disgraceful.

[Nesguy]

Sometimes I get tired of all the endless tweaking and then I just use Guest-advanced and guest-ntsc sans masks.

Here’s a look at some of my NES Shader Presets (not Shaders)

Yeah, it’s actually kind of difficult to make out masks without BFI, anyway.

Hey my fellow scanline fanatics. So I’ve been running experiments with shaders again, this time to get things working with RetroArch and the XBox Series X (which combined with a C1 65" oled is like the definitive combo, I hardly can’t believe old games can be made to look so good on such a large display).

My bread and butter easymode halation presets look amazing of course, and so do guest and hyllian (congrats you two for all the new developments by the way).

But it so happens that vertical games are still a bit of a challenge if you don’t do tate, and the need to find a good vertical preset drove this quest. I feel I was successful, and it turns out that the preset I made for those pesky vertical games is fantastic for horizontal stuff as well. It’s a little bit convoluted, using the masks from the img mod shader and hyllian 3D. It has to be hyllian 3D because of its very convenient ability to set the X/Y res, since in order to make it work I had to add a stock pass at increased resolutions (x3, x5, even x7, depending on the game, output resolution and performance target).

First shot is an example of said preset, running at 1440p with mask number 5, coming from my laptop and not the Xbox. Notice all those lovely, bloomy, egg-shaped phosphors! Second is hi-res easymode halation with a shadow mask.

Colour corrections are the usual (green channel cooldown, desat, etc).

Like always, remember to open them in a new tab to get a properly scaled image.

[Squalo]

The similarities are uncanny!

[Rincewind]

Nice! The Mario shot really proves that games developed for composite/RF should be played on composite/RF.

Ok, I have a problem with composite Genesis, everything I try just doesn’t convince me, in terms of saturation, definition, brigthness, and no matters how much I tinker with it.

So, here’s the poor man’s solution: guest’s advanced HD, internal resolution set to 1,40. Does it blend? Kind of. But everything else is satisfying.
