I believe as long as your display is set up properly and can auto detect the right colour space (it should) the default settings should be fine, it looked great in Super Metroid and Super Mario World for me just there on a display mode calibrated to 2.4 gamma. On some shaders, one of the shader parameters near the top will be labelled like "monitor/display/output gamma" and ideally that should be set to your displays gamma I think. Here is what I did to compare different shaders: If there is one that says something like "CRT" or "Game" gamma then I don't think you need to touch that one though. If you press "n" and "m" you will cycle up and down the shaders/shader presets in the folder your current preset is in, so you can load, say, the Kurozumi preset from the presets folder and then go back to the game and press n/m to cycle through and compare that with the rest of the presets in that folder quickly while staying in-game. There will probably be a bunch you don't want to compare though and have to scroll through to get to the ones you want so when you find the ones you like, even if you don't modify them, save them all to the same folder (it will save them in the shader root be default anyway) and now pressing n and m will only cycle those ones you saved/want to see. I'm not an expert in this stuff but AT ALL btw, I just learned it by doing. Hope that helpsĬlick to expand.Obviously CRT TVs were smaller and the distance between us was usually larger.īut if this is an issue, you can always scale the image at half of it's size and have some black borders around the screen or increase your distance.įact is, if you want the art to be authentic, a good CRT shader is the final graphics layer that brings all of it together. Developers made the graphics so when the CRT displays them, they appear as intended. Without it you just see the sharp, raw pixels that you weren't really supposed to see. These clean pixels are kinda like having a peak at the backstage area, if that makes any sense.Īnd that's the big issue with many indie developers. Most of them are young and probably never played old games on CRTs. So when they make those "Retro style" games, they go for the pixelly, sharp look. But that's not "retro", games didn't look that way back then. Not to mention 99% of people were playing them using composite or RF cables. A ton of games even take that into consideration, like how dithering patterns intentionally become new colors or transparencies with composite blending, that you completely miss if you use RGB cables or, let alone, modern panels + upscalers. ![]() People do like their upscalers and their sharp, raw pixels. But that's just a preference and has nothing to do with authenticity or viewing the games the way the developers intended.The cause of the intrusion has been found and isolated. We have no indications that other systems including core distribution was accessed, so there is no immediate cause for concern there. ![]() Sites should be operational right now and everything should work fine right now.

This brings the total number of available cores on Steam to 60 now.
