Simulate CRT

[spacefractal]

also NES and SNES horizontal stretched the image as well, so they did not produce a 1x1 pixel. This should of course been simulated as well.

Im also have did a game in even lower resolution (CatchOut), which simulated a Fairchild F resolution. Here im diddent go after CRT simulator as well, but used its palette.

Scanlines does not work in every thing, and im dont like 100% scanlines as well, but often im uses about 50% scanline in emulators, if there is such a feature. This can easy to been simulated in glbasic eventuelly.

PS. The CRT shader used in that link IS really nicely.

It all comes down to personal preference,  and as Erico it's a form of enhancing nostalgia.
Thanks for all the feedback on this.

The border reflection of the screen as your prime example is way way harder and way off realistic.
Apart from personal opinions, let us know how it goes.

I don´t know...it all depends on your needs and target, but to be really old school, I´d go for a 320x240, 640x480, 800x600 or 1024x728 as high quality tubes can go that way, put it all on an arcade cabinet as it was.

Let´s not count later tube development and neither the likes of 2 tubes together (darius or punch out). 

Cheers.

I found out on Rare Replay on Xbox One last night if you click the right analog stick it puts a CRT filter on the screen with the curving, blurring effect. 3 seconds later I clicked it and turned it off. It actually looked better all pixelated rather than that filter
