Retroarch 4K CRT Bezel - Tekken 2
Hi everyone, after trying bezel shaders with two-dimensional games, I got curious about testing a 3D game from the 32-bit era.
I chose Tekken 2 because it features "edgy" polygonal character graphics, combined with 2D backgrounds, and I thought it was one of the best ways to test the quality of this shader, dealing with a "mixed" situation.
Well, the final effect took me back to Christmas 1996, when I received the first Playstation as a gift along with a copy of Tekken 2.
Apart from the curvature of the screen (which I never liked, not even in the 80s ), this shader makes Tekken 2 look exactly as I remember it. Both 3D models and 2D backgrounds are blended just right, retaining detail as seen on older screens.
To avoid any display problems, it is better to watch in 4K full screen (or at least try changing resolution if you notice defects such as strange colors).
If you like the result, I leave you in the description the link to download the "shaders" folder (use Winrar to extract the files), to copy into your Retroarch directory (mine for example is C:\RetroArch-Win64). It should not overwrite any other shader that you may have in your "shaders" folder, in any case before copying and pasting I recommend you back up the "shaders" folder to be safe.
Once you have started a game, click F1, go to the "shader" item and load the "Niubblog_4K_CRT_Bezel.slangp" shader located in the "shader" folder.
Information: I used the Beetle PSX HW as an emulator, but you can also use Duckstation. The important thing is that you use x2 resolution, while I used xBR as a texture filter.
Until next time!

Retroarch 4K CRT Bezel - Streets of Rage 2

Hi everyone, today I'm back to show you how beautiful this filter is which upscales the image of old 2D games while preserving their visual fidelity. I chose Streets of Rage 2 for Sega Megadrive/Genesis as the game for testing because it shows transparency effects that are usually poorly emulated if you use upscaling filters. Well, with this filter these effects are displayed much better than o...

The Legend of Zelda - Original vs unofficial remastered version

Ok, this is a 2006 game that has simply been upscaled, thanks to the emulator, in this case the Xenia Canary, the Xbox 360 emulator. It's amazing how good it still looks (and even play). If anyone is wondering why I made a video about Virtua Fighter 5 and not the Final Shodown version, it's because I simply prefer the Vanilla version.

For this mission you need a fast but also powerful character, I recommend Mitsurugi with the Soul Edge. Chase your opponents and try to hit them with running forward B→B. Every now and then they stop to taunt you, taking advantage. It's not a particularly difficult mission, but it may take you several tries to stay under 35 seconds and get the gold medal.

Another pretty easy mission. I have once again used Astaroth with the Soul Edge, as he does a lot of damage, but I believe you can also use your favorite character equipped with the most powerful weapon available to him. With Astaroth I used the usual moves, (back/down) A, side step B and forward → forward A→B, managing to get the gold medal on the first try.

In case Lizardman wins a match, you should try again from the beginning, because to get the gold me...

This is another difficult mission. It is necessary to find the right timing to charge the Soul Charge (A B K) enough to then hit the opponents, who obviously will not let you rest. You do not need to charge the Soul Charge to the maximum, on the contrary, I do not recommend it, better charge it about a generous second and then hit. Again, for me the best choice remains Astaroth with the Soul Ed...

So weird why my retroarch is not loading this shader, looks great as always, but it's not working on my end for whatever reason. The CRT Bezel worked, I saw the file and it seems like you redirected the shader to another folder? #reference "shaders_slang/bezel/Mega_Bezel/Presets/Variations/Smoothed/SMOOTH-ADV_4_Super-Smooth_new.slangp"
Maybe because when I made this video the version of Retroarch was not the current one, and the shader folders were organized differently. If I can, tonight I'll upload an updated shader for the current version of Retroarch.
Try this, put it in RetroArch-Win64\shaders drive.google.com/file/d/1DcLvc6Ey3AIuANQianmJIKCA4rTLnvnm/view?usp=drive_link
@@ilniubblog9232 Thanks mate, I will give it a try. Gonna try on the "stable" version of retroarch
@@RRRRRRRRR33 It should be ok on the nightly version too
I'm not a big fan of crt, but the transparency/reflection effect at the borders looks pretty damn cool
I wonder if it's possible to load the slangp shaders outside from retroarch. I appreciate their job, but the retroarch UI give me headaches. Anyway, nice job mate, I bet it took a while for you testing the shaders until reaching these results, appreciate that
Unfortunately I don't think it's possible to use Retroarch shaders outside of it, even though some shaders have been exported to Reshade. However I don't think you can export a custom shader easily, and Retroarch certainly has no interest in letting you export them. As for the shader used in this video, I actually developed a more advanced one now, which also handles transparencies more correctly. I made two versions: one in 16:9 (like in this video) and the other in 4:3 with the frame (you can see this in other videos I posted, like this one th-cam.com/video/tslXL_6G3sk/w-d-xo.html ). Yes, it takes a bit of time to test them, but it's worth it, thanks :D

Grandissimo, io non ho mai superato il 75
Ai tempi della ps2 anche io ero arrivato intorno al 75, e siccome era l’ultima sfida per completare il gioco al 100%, mi bruciava non esserci riuscito. Passati alcuni anni avevo un po’ dimenticato questa “macchia”, ma rigiocandoci di recente con l’emulatore è riemersa prepotentemente, e allora mi son detto “E’ ora di chiudere i conti col passato”. Mi sono registrato mentre lo facevo perché così posso rivedermi quando voglio e riassaporare un po’ il dolce gusto della vittoria :D

Yes, my heart stopped during that moment 😁
@@ilniubblog9232It made the battle even more epic imo.
this game needs modern release bundled in a collection with original SC and 2
SC3 is my favorite Soul Calibur chapter in the entire series, without a doubt a Great game of all time!
It is mine too. The ones I'm most emotionally attached to are Soul Edge/Blade and the first Soulcalibur, but the third is the best chapter for me. A bit like Tekken, I have the first 3 in my heart, but I think the fifth is the peak of the series.
@@ilniubblog9232 Hello, yes, you are absolutely right and I totally agree. SC1 is basically a Soul Edge 2, however, it represented the beginning of a new adventure, SC2 was very innovative on a graphical level, but SC3 had it all... great atmosphere feeling, beautiful graphics and spectacular music! Likewise, the first three Tekken are obligatory collection titles, but 5 and DR represented the pinnacle of the saga, which they polished to the extreme in the sixth part... very graphically innovative. Anyway, here are two of the best fighting sagas like no other, regards friend and we continue in the battle! 🔥😅🙌
Soul caliber 3 was the best one because they have different styles from the original fighters. Also, more equipment need to come back and add Al Gore from my Soul caliber 4 Mix with six abiso insane😅
We need SC3 remastered. The same gameplay, same characters, but modern, maybe some online mode. More outfits (like from arcade,...) And maybe even update the Chronicle of the sword and World tournament scenarios,...

I emulate SC3 on my mid-low end android phone with Aethersx2. It just takes a bit of configuration to run smoothly. 😉
im pretty certain this battle is impossible to do with certain characters ninja for example can't deal enough damage to kill the ai
Yeah, that's why I found Astaroth with the Souledge to be the best option.
i tried ninja with forward forward kick kick kick spam and the best i could manage was a 13 second kill on raphael a 10 on killik and 20-25 on amy..her increased life makes her take far too long to kill in time even with an increased attack weapon
what your pc specs? can my gtx 1050 and 16gb ram play this with i5 3rd gen
rtx 3090, 32gb ram and i9 9900k, but you can run the pcsx2 with far lower specs, expecially if you run it at 1080p. I have a second pc with gtx 1080 ti, 16 gb ram and i7 7700k, and at 1080p pcsx2 runs very well, but I think that it would run well also with a i5 and a 1060.

hi, link doesn't work there any chance i can download?
Hi, I tried right now and link works for me, it should bring you to texture pack thread of Soulcalibur 3, on gbatemp.net. In the first post of the thread there's the link to texture pack download page. I tested it with Chrome, Firefox and Edge, no problem at all.
The idea is absolutely genious, but it doesn't look like a CRT at all, there are no scanlines, it's just upscaled and a little blurrier
Unfortunately the "crt" part of the filter, the CRTFakeLottes one, cannot be appreciated well with a video uploaded to TH-cam, due to compression. If you watch it at 2160p on a 4K screen you can see a bit better result, but it will never be like watching it live, I realized that from watching the TH-cam video rather than the actual game. I can confirm that live is better. It is also possible to vary many parameters, if you like the marked scanelines you can easily add them, I usually don't put them because I prefer a crosslinked effect that the crts had, but without scanlines. However, the important thing is that everyone can achieve the result they prefer with Reshade, and that's the cool thing.
You just played with my favorite character. Amazing job! Now I found a way to win (probably) Also 6:22 AYO CASSANDRA WHAT DID YOU SAYYYYYEEE?
