reshade VS crt-royale-reshade

If you are interested in making it look even better, then installing ReShade and adding FSAA there also makes a huge improvement over the best settings in game.

Reshade is popularly used with a vast variety of presets to change the atmosphere, anything works which you find appealing. I like u/Gwnf5066 presets.

I spend some time today and klicked through various reshade filters (free download at https://reshade.me ). They can be turned on and off ingame via hotkey, live-changed during the game and have (almost) no performance hit. They also do not declare as a Warno Mod and hence are fully compatible with multiplayer, ranked games etc. As I am not a pro in shaders and such stuff, it was a process of trial and error.

Download Reshade if you want to use CAS Sharpening (make sure to activate it by pressing 'Home' button once you're back in Starfield) since DLSS doesn't have one atm

Personally, just for the nostalgia factor, I run the game with ReShade ( https://reshade.me/ ) and the CRT Royale filter ( https://github.com/akgunter/crt-royale-reshade/releases/tag/v2.1.0 ). That might impact the requirements and performance somewhat, but I don't think it will be all that much.

Just follow the basic instructions to download and apply reshade to your dolphin.exe. Select the same API used within Dolphin, like OpenGL, DirectX or Vulkan. Download the latest version of this CRT Royale port and put it in the reshade-shaders folder inside your dolphin directory. Start up your emulator. When everything's done right, reshade should pop up as well as CRT Royale. It might take some doing to configure it to your liking, but I found the results very pleasing.

Here are some instructions for getting that to work right: https://github.com/akgunter/crt-royale-reshade/wiki/Pairing-with-ShaderGlass-and-Special-K

Note that this preset works very well with CRT-Royale in suppressing pixellation.

So I got the shader to my liking now! Just a couple things if you guys want to try it out you will need the latest reshade, crt royal reshade, and then my preset. Keep in mind that I really don't have that much experience with reshade so I just did what I thought looked good to me and on my monitor. Feel free to tweak it yourself!

I often use CRT Royale for 2D pixel art games. The default settings are pretty good, but I recommend unchecking "Interlacing" and lowering "Diffusion".

I too can't stand raw pixels on a big monitor, but those games you mentioned look amazing with crt-royale for ReShade on a 1440p monitor. That's my go-to way to play pixel games.
