NG-1.9.20-hotfix1
2 not critical fixes.
- Deltarender, is a bit heavier now, but much less prone to false positives -> less glitchy.
- scanline dilation size depend on Core size instead of a subsequent pass size.
This, in turn, allow to change (lower to 1x for performance reasons in hires content) the shader pass size without affecting it.
NG-1.9.20
NEW:
* Allow to set glow light sharpness.
* Allow to modulate reflected and diffused light fadeout.
* New Monitor-Screen_Hmask-Screen_SlotMask-Chameleon preset.
* New Monitor-Screen_Hmask-Screen_SlotMask_Taller_Brighter preset.
* Real-time autocrop.
* Add Gameboy Color Presets.
* Scanlines inflation (rounder image)
FIX:
* Tate: Fake scanline size compuration was using the wrong dimension.
* Little border between the bezel and the content will be visible even
when using geometry overrides or luminosity tied zoom.
* Keep ambient leds in place when using bezel and geometry override zoom.
* Adapt ambientlight sampling point to geometry override zoom/aspect.
* Keep ambient leds in place when using bezel and geometry override zoom.
* Fixed Deltarender (not sure when it broke).
CHANGED:
* Better bezel reflections.
* Tuned ambientlight stretcing for vertical games.
* Auto fake integer scanlines will kick in with lower screen resolutions.
MISC:
* Code cleanup.
* Several performance improvements, we're almost back to 4.1 levels.
* Several presets updates.

NG-1.4
Misc
- Xbox/d3d compatibility: add specific workarounds, enable them by editing config/config-static.inc
- New config/config-static.inc and config/config-user.txt files.
Use them to change static parameters or tu turn runtime parameters into static ones
and gain performance. Keep a backup before updating, ofc.
Presets
- Mitigate glitch patterns in Generic-Handheld-RGB.slangp
- Add two handhelds dotmatrix presets "dots" in uncorrected aspect and 4:3 aspect
- Wider ambientlight in generic handhelds rgb preset
- Tweaked ambientlight on gba night preset
- GBA preset: Switched from dotmatrix to pixelgrid
- Reduce spot power on immersive preset
- Add a simple immersive fxaa preset in the old 4.1 folder
- Updated overmask presets to include unsharp-mask+FXAA and moire mitigation
- New preset Monitor-Screen_Hmask_WideR-Screen_SlotMask
Parameters
- Removed GEOM_CUT_EARS parameter, useless since using my curvature now
- Add moire mitigation option
- Allow to define ambientlight wideness for rotated games
- Allow to switch to fake integer scanlines, always or only on interlaced screens (see docs)
- Haloing can happen on an already "scanlined" image if a new static parameter: HALO_PRE_SCANLINE_GAP
- Remove Inter-cell extra steepness parameter; it has been never used and has very little effect
- Vertical cell Mask->Vertical shift: negative values will select the sharpest line when using screen coords
Fixes/Changes
- Bloom strength on white area was broken when using content geometry override, fixed
- Mitigate clipping on bright background images when mixing ambilight over them

- small optimization to ntscdec()
NG-1.0
Main changes from 4.1
-
Low level phosphor-grid
which superseedes scanlines, vertical and horizontal mask.
provides more features and is much more flexible by allowing
to emulate common masks and freely draft new ones. -
Add a new overmask preset to increase the whole visible mask
(at the price of moire patterns on lower resolution). -
Add a new Spark look punch to increase the vertical mask effect.
-
Allow to vertically stagger single phosphors to better emulate
y-deconvercence. -
Allow to change vertical and horizontal mask gamma.
-
Spot is now painted over the whole tube when using bezels
and not just on the game content. -
Improved reflection look.
-
Workaround for Flycast + Nvidia + Glcore + Ambient light
not playing well (that was tough). -
Ambient light scene changes are not instantaneous.
-
Selective NTSC artifacts blurring: inverted logic/workflow.
-
Switched to my own curvature function.
-
Luminosity tied zoom now has an hardcoded range.
-
Add an option to show "basal" unexcited phosphors grid.
-
Allow to use negative blurring parameters to switch from
gaussian to box + (eventually) unsharp mask. -
Input gain is not tied to glow feature anymore,
moved to color correction section. -
Prevent bloom from color shifting high tones due to color temperature.
-
Allow to pre-attenuate gain levels before applying halo.
That way it does not change whan changing gain and may help
in avoiding cascading effects when drafting presets. -
Overhauled nightify function.
-
Allow to widen the ambient light effect without pushing led power
-
Allow to set virtual led position.
-
New ambient light "immersive" preset.
-
Now ambient light bezel and/or background image colorization
can use two blend modes, multiply and add (see foggy parametter) -
New active (not used because prone to change) parameter to
clear dot masks betweeb scanlines (dedot). -
Ambient light does not depend on color/brightness corrections
anymore, set it (once) and forget. -
Debanding is now applied on green component only.
-
Ported all old preset to new code.
-
Made new presets to show different masks possibilities.
-
Experimental delta render to save on battery powered devices
which only render zones of the screen that has been changed
Statically disabled. -
Allow to set minimum lines to detect interlaced content by runtime
parameter. -
Add overlay-powered handhelds presets for:
Gamegear,Gameboy Advance, Gameboy mono and Gameboy mono pocket. -
More colorful Ambient lights.
-
Dot Matrix strength has now an "auto" parameter that adapt the grid
steepness to the viewport size to mitigate glitches.
