Really guys I don't know why y'all not prompting AI, it's very easy:
"Make shader to imitate a CRT and make no mistakes"... simple as that.
Bing bang boom, here's the result:

Ah, the 90s

My plan worked perfectly.
Sleep at 5am to wake up at 9am.

Feeling fresh and revitalized...

Kidding you not, been testing my shader's "Dither Blur" parameter with Sonic 1 infamous cascade part in Level 1... then decided to play it through since I've NEVER played it before...

FUCKING SUCKS.

What's the point of making "gotta go fast" the whole fucking gimmick when level design is awful and LITERALLY PUNISHES YOU FOR GOING FAST?

Sonic fans are mentally ill.

DONE! I'D SAY AT A 99%
THAT REMAINING 1% IS "AS LONG AS I DON'T THINK ABOUT ADDING/MODIFYING PARAMETERS"

Shader: "LCD Master v23"

Yesterday tred to work out a "Glow + Phosphore Decay" effect... and accidentally made a "CRT Flicker".

Went from "SPIR-V" mismatches to "Oh, Windows 7 and DirectX 10? That's my fave!"

Fixed:
- DMG/Pocket/Light Presets now their grids are tied to Game's Native Resolution instead of Viewport calculations. Results will vary from Display to Display.
- GBC Preset has what I assume are corrected colors.

Added:
- Color Parameters for Brightness/Contrast/Saturation... on top of having the old "Color Temperature".
- Contrast Potentiometer for DMG/Pocket/Light
- 8 Phosphore Mask styles for CRT
- Border now adds a reflective border that mirrors pixels outwards
- Vignette
- Border Glow

Working on:
- Glow... I still can't find a way to mimmick the glow I used to see in CRT's when playing in the 90s.
- Shimmer Style... trying to recreate the "Rainbow Chromatic Aberration" in Non-Lit LCDs

Still find incredible how a simple mismatch in text breaks everything.

Woke up at 2am, been tweaking my Shader... more precisely, trying to recreate a CRT Glow (currently unsuccessful)
Good news is, managed to get 8 different CRT Phosphor Masks.
