CRT-Guest-Advanced for ReShade :

I've ported Guest-Dr-Venom to ReShade!

CRT-Guest-Advanced for ReShade (Let me know if you found any issues!) : /* CRT - Guest - Advanced (Copyright (C) 2018-2021 guest(r) - [email protected]) Incorporates many good ideas and suggestions from Dr. Venom.

Took me a bit but I got RetroArch running on my iPad Pro. It looks great even with no gpu. Here is venom_sm on some DoomII in dosbox.

It’s amazing how much better Doom looks with a CRT shader

[BendBombBoom]

I’m assuming things are running at 60hz but that 120hz Oled screen of the iPad is nice looking. If only you don’t have to dance around to get emulators up and running on iOS.

New release of crt-super-xbr :

• Added crt-super-xbr-curvature-ntsc-adaptive ;

crt-super-xbr and variants (slang) - 21-01-24

It looks like this link is dead. Is there any other way to get this shader? I’m drooling over it a little bit. Maybe a lot a bit. lol I didn’t see it in the folders at all.

Does anyone have a clean way of combining the gtu-v50 slang shader with crt-royale? I tried adding it as the first few passes on top of royale and that didn’t work at all

GTU is probably the best crt blurring shader I’ve personally seen and I feel like it would do wonders on top of royale but I can’t quite get the two to place nice

Testing out the brand new PCSX2 core with geust-drvenom

[s8n]

very nice knob , and welcome to see more PCSX2 shaders in this thread.

[Red-gehog]

@datjocko It looks beautiful! I did a preset with Venom too. I’m using Lottes mask, but I think the white tone is a little weak. I already used GTU as antidither instead of dither detection as mdapt, then I started using sgenptmix (which has some settings that I think are better than those of mdapt). But I think the gaussian-blur-sharp shows something similar to ntsc shaders, with no color blurs, and without breaking fonts and other details. I use gaussian-blur-sharp with guest-venom.

Look:

[lilbud]

Could you share your shader settings for this? I really like the look of the shader.

[Red-gehog]

@lilbud Here it is! Put it in the ‘’ shaders ‘’ directory: https://www.mediafire.com/file/odvc9ktr8sws9oy/crt-guest-venom-gaussian-horizontal-sharp.slangp/file

[s8n]

tried the preset with PCSX2 today and it looks awesome thank you for sharing. I also tried it with Flycast and the preset doesn’t show up. Any ideas why and how i can get it to work with Flycast ?.

[Duckeenie]

Are you using the same video “driver” in Retroarch?
