@masterotaku if you can point me to the exact shader i will search for the issue

The third and fourth ones:

- swap_RGB_GBR
- swap_RGB_GRB

I'm colorblind, but I noticed the differences easily in OpenGL when I tried it a lot of time ago in master builds.

Edit: they behave the same as no shaders, in case you're wondering what they do right now.

* I don't like the look of that hi-res texture pack. It doesn't improve the quality / resolution of most of the textures and it changes the style of the graphics / fonts / UI for the worse.
What I want from a texture pack is graphics / textures as close as possible to the original, just upgraded to (U)HD resolution.
* The combination of artificially increased contrast and heavy bloom crushes the colors/blacks/whites and reduces the color depth / dynamic range.
It may look nice on a crappy 6-bit TN monitor or low-end TV, but if you use a decent TV with true 4:4:4 RGB output and a quality OLED or VA panel, the "dull and lifeless" image will look just as good, but without the horrible side effects of post-processing.
Just turn up the saturation / contrast on your TV if you want more "pop"

Hmm... the game playing in real-time is most definitely not blurry in the slightest. I don't upload images often and didn't realize imgur was converting them to a badly compressed jpg so perhaps that's where the blurriness is coming from.

The texture pack to me looks quite nice, Honeyhive in particular has all or almost all of those textures replaced and it seems pretty faithful. Some UI elements may be debatable, personally the star bit does bother me slightly since it is flat on one edge. I really wish he had made it more symmetrical, but overall it and the environments seem very nice to me.

The Bloom is actually very light, turned down as far as it could go. The stone textures in screenshot one seem to reflect a bunch, but in most places like Honeyhive again, it works out very well.

I'm running on a modern (<1 year old) BenQ 144hz monitor and everything is very clear and crisp, no crappy old TV here. I was fine with the game when I started, but once I tweaked a bit and saw where I could get the colors, the standard way looks dull now in comparison. I definitely like it a bit more colorful.

To each his own, I suppose...

Having a really strange issue when using DirectX with Metroid Prime Trilogy, it seems that in Metroid Prime 2 pretty much every sky texture is not loaded or something else goes wrong and it just comes out as black, and yes it seems specific for this as it works fine in the regular Dolphin build

OpenGL doesn't have this issue

Unsure if it could be my specs but here they are:

OS - Windows 8.1
GPU - Nvidia Geforce GTX 970 (EVGA brand)
CPU - Intel Core i7 4790k - 4.0GHz

That sounds like this issue which existed in regular Dolphin builds for a short time: https://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/issues/detail?id=8565

I don't know if that information is of any help for you, but maybe it can help Tino track down why it's happening in Ishiiruka.

So I'm trying out the 'Depth' post processing effect in Ishiiruka.


This one.

Which gives a silhouette effect

Spoiler: (Show Spoiler)

but as you can see the edges have a lot of aliasing, which happens regardless of anti-aliasing setting. Is there a way to fix this? Or is it just a limitation of the effect?

I saw this the other day about dx12 and that it supports async shaders:


Wondering whether it is similar to what Tino did and if it can be implemented by dolphin.

will check can be caused by the recent changes made to the depth buffer code. Thanks for the report

this effect only show the value sinside the depth buffer, is not affected by MSAA so it will always have sharp edges.

Another good PR for merging:

PR #2593: Removes the 'Toggle IR' hotkey and moves the 'Auto (fractional)' and 'Auto (integral)' settings to the 'Decrease IR' hotkey.
