What are your honest thoughts on shaders?

>> No.9874616

I think they hit the wall too early.

Ask the thread that's still up instead of making a new one.

Don't see much debate and opinions on that one, since it's for people who already like shaders to share their configs. I'm asking (You) your opinion.

Lol, I remember the music, that played during that title screen. If I had no CRT, I'd go with the filter version.

The CRTfags are gonna start complaining if they see multiple shader threads and ruin the fun for everyone again so be ready for that.

They're the only option if you don't have a CRT. Simple as.

None of them make whites "glow" like I remember.

I use a CRT filter whenever I play 16-bit games on RetroArch. I feel it adds something to the experience, especially since I'm not a huge fan of real CRT's but I do like how the panel affects sprites and pixel art.

Very good example of why pixels are not supposed to be little squares of identical size.

Pixel shader is the second most important invention in gaming graphics, right after graphics itself.
