Please show off what crt shaders can do!

I’m doing my best on 1080p, I really copied colors, brightness and gamma from my CRT monitor. I don’t know if it looks good…

Hello it’s really good can you do a test but just a little less dark to compare

I’m a 1080p user, on my monitor it looks a little too dark and also very warm, maybe there is an orange tint? here a comparison with 2 of my presets:

in the middle is guest adv and on the right guest’s ntsc

Could anyone recommend a shader/filter combo that makes Super Castlevania IV (SNES) nice and smooth?

Thanks!

If you like aperture grille, maybe these?

You can use either of the SNES presets available in the preset pack below:

CyberLab CRT-Royale 4K SNES_PSX.slangp or CyberLab CRT-Royale 4K SNES_PSX Fine.slangp.

Or the SNES Smooth Neo-GX Ultra preset available here:

Yeah, I realize now, I’ll keep tweaking, I’ll think I will work on the computer better, on mobile phone is more difficult to notice things. Thanks.

I think it looks better now on 1080p…

And just in case someone has a BGR monitor, this pic is with RGB layout.

I think they look very good but just a bit oversaturated. If you can fine tune that you should be golden!

Hey, I liked this. Can I Try?

That’s sexy. The only two things I wish that could be added to your version is the “base mask” setting from the guest shader and also all the new recent ntsc settings from guest to your ntsc royale version.
