Conceptually I feel you on that but I feel there may be a better way to achieve that without compromising the color accuracy so severely.

 

[kek_lel]

well flat colours make the game look more "2d", thats intended
emulating hand drawn backgrounds in a retro style console look
kinda

 

[Morrigan Stark]

Um... is this serious?

It looks like someone is playing the game on a really, really shitty, buggy, near-broken TV. And why would you force a retro look on something that isn't retro and already looks great? Poor Donkey Kong...

well I was experimenting and went with the flow, of course DK vanilla is fine but I wanted to try something else
looks good in motion though

CRT emulation is pretty damn good nowadays. I've slightly broken the rules of this thread though - these are photographs, not screenshots.

retroarch, bsnes core, hylian shader. And yeah, they are extreme closeups - reason being to show just how goddamn accurate the phosphor emulation is

Fantastic CRT simulation, terrible (no) DAC simulation. I want to see how it looked via RF via CRT...

You could never tell Link had pink hair over RF in the day.

oh man

I had an RGB SCART cable for my SNES from day one. Obviously we had to deal with 50hz over here in the UK, but I never used RF.

Good times of cursing the PAL standard and wishing devs could do something about it, which they rarely did.

The original SF2 port on the snes was a depressing moment for me! That was one great game, duly slowed down and then squashed by some nice thick borders!

This makes me think of the Game Boy Donkey Kong iterations (ie: Donkey Kong Land), as opposed to the 16 Bit Snes ver.

..I think it has charm.

NTSC version so it's 60fps, running at 480p in the game's settings at 6x Native, so 3840x2880 (if I'm doing the numbers right) then output to 1080p.

Nice and sharp either way. Assets look amazing for a 2005 game.

Might do some Enthusia later.

Thanks.

Enthusia doesn't come out well in screenshots, but ehh, 'least it works.

It's ghosted because the only interlacing method that doesn't shake is Blend, whereas GT4 works fine with Bob and looks sharp.

 

[shandy706]

Is there a dedicated place to post emulated 360 game shots that are running on the Xbox One emulation?

I'm guessing this isn't the place, lol. We're PC only in here...right? Or not..I mean this is the Emulator Screenshot Thread..haha?

This thread needs more Mario Sunshine

Emu: Dolphin 4.0.2
Internal Resolution: 4x Native (2560x2112)
Anti-Aliasing: 8 Samples
Anisotropic Filtering: 16x

I'm always in awe at how well upscaling treats this game.
I only just started playing through this again. I'll post more once I'm through some more worlds.

The color work is lovely. Are you using the 60fps hack?

I've toyed around with the 60FPS hack, and have had minor success regarding audio issues while doing so. For this run through I'll be playing at 30FPS.

The world of emulation tweaking is quite the rabbit hole

The first thing you should do is stop using 4.0.2. It is so old and outdated, download the latest dev build.

It's so nice that Dolphin supports the Wii U Gamecube controller adapter.

Amazing shots as always.

Just started experimenting with manually stringing different shader passes together in RetroArch. Here is Eternal Champions using the gdapt de-dithering shader and then CRT Lottes on top. It's fascinating to use gdapt on heavily dithered graphics such as EC just to see how they turn out. For one, that mist foreground in Xavier's stage has actual transparency now, hehe.

 

[BIGWORM]

What's the best version of Dolphin to use for a higher-end system? Running a 4670k @ 4.2, GTX 970, 16GB DDR3.

Almost looks like a screenshot off an old TV.

They both have this FFX vibe to them. Could have been locations in that game!

Great Parasite Eve shots....

Woops, forgot to fullscreen it seems.

These are great, I really like the way the middle one looks.

This has me wishing they'd use the original model for a modern game. It still looks so good at higher resolutions.

Any shots of Link?

Well of course

That's what I like to see! Awesome lol

My main! I used to play this so much on my PS2 back in the day!

Just wanted to post Riki. Because Riki. :3

Mario assets in an Electronic Arts game is so strange these days considering the company's abandonment of Nintendo platforms.

 

[bomblord1]

Honestly didn't know that existed lol was that some kind of intentional cross promotion or just some easter eggs?

SoulCalibur II

Wow it looks good. Ivy used to look so much better back then.

 

[Vazra]

As for settings excuse my laziness.

Congrats first post on a new page

As for the shots they look great.

 

[potatohead]

Some GTE Accuracy shots from ePSXe 2.0. Jumping Flash! is the game.

GTE Accuracy actually makes this game slow down even on modern computers, it's crazy. Must be all the geometry that is being corrected.

Notice the very clean symmetry of the 3D models, particularly the large mounds of dirt, pillars, logs, and other larger 3D objects.

Lack of z-buffering may be solved in the next year or few years, who knows! That is where this is going at least, amazing times for PlayStation emulation.

That's pretty cool the models make me think of Space Station Silicon Valley
