RetroArch shaders in ShaderGlass

Understand the RetroArch shader library, its presets, and practical uses in ShaderGlass.

Shader categories

Common categories include CRT display simulation, image upscaling, handheld display styles, TV and VHS effects, sharpening and smoothing.

Working with presets

Choose a preset in the shader browser and test it with an emulator or desktop window. Different presets may require different scaling and graphics resources.

Custom files

ShaderGlass supports importing external .slang and .slangp shaders. Not every third-party preset works on every graphics setup, so keep a working default profile.
