This is a set of CRT shader presets built on top of the excellent crt-guest-advanced shader from @guest.r

These shaders were designed with 4K TVs that use a BGR subpixel layout and have a very high brightness in mind. These shaders should work just fine in both SDR and HDR, so long as the display’s brightness is set to a high level.

A description of each shader: crt-guest-aperture-grille: This preset is designed to mimic Sony consumer CRT sets crt-guest-aperture-grille-line-doubled: Same as above, but with line doubling turned on for VGA games, mainly for the PrBoom core crt-guest-aperture-grille-no-interlacing: Same as the aperture grille preset, but with interlacing disabled. This is useful for 480p games, such as Dreamcast games crt-guest-hd-input: This is an aperture grille preset designed for use with 720p inputs. This is useful for use with 7th gen emulators when using WindowCast or similar crt-guest-slot-mask-bgr: This is a slot mask preset designed to mimic non-Sony consumer CRT sets. This uses a BGR subpixel layout crt-guest-slot-mask-rgb: This is the same as above, but using an RGB subpixel layout. This preset is still meant for use with BGR displays.

Version 2024-12-09: https://mega.nz/file/eqQhSLYD#uvgByrhv9P1VPjImQ2QLJccsdP41KIROyzpwszaWvDY

Changelog:

  • Better color reproduction across all presets

  • Deleted crt-guest-hd-input in favor of aperture-grille-no-interlacing and the slot-mask-pvm presets

  • Added a bunch of new presets, including different color profiles for slot mask presets, no-mask presets (for emulating greyscale TV sets), higher TVL slot mask presets (to emulate a ~27" consumer CRT TV), and slot mask PVM presets (to emulate imaginary professional slot mask monitors, even though those didn’t really exist and were mainly dot mask and aperture grille), along with a 480p-interlacing preset designed for use on real CRT VGA monitors using CRT Switchres at 31KHz.
