From MAMEUIFX 0.167 we currently support 5 different shaders. Here are some pics of them in use.
NOTE: I'm using an LCD monitor and I have enabled "Widescreen Stretch" option. Also, I disabled curvature in the shaders to better show the final result. Though I'm a fan of this "flat" monitor effect and I currently use it to play games. The game used for tests is the well-known Black Tiger.
CRT Geom HQ (high CPU/GPU resources demanding)
CRT Geom MQ (medium CPU/GPU resources demanding, very small loss in image quality)
CRT Geom LQ (low CPU/GPU resources demanding, very big loss in image quality)
CRT Geom Bloom (medium CPU/GPU resources demanding, derived from CRT Geom MQ)
Lottes CRT (original version is very high CPU/GPU resources demanding, here is a modified light-weight version)
All these shaders are distributed with MAMEUIFX package. You simply have to do:
1) Select "OpenGL" in Video Mode section of Display tab
2) Enable "Use GLSL" in OpenGL tab
3) Select the desired shader in the MAME Shader 0 slot under OpenGL Shaders tab
For CRT Geom Bloom shader, which is a multiple one, you have to do the following setup in OpenGL Shaders:
All shaders have also their "Vertical" version which have to be used with Vertical oriented games.
That's all, feel free to post comments, questions, etc.
