I just uploaded new patches for these 4 ProPinball games (links above updated). Now you can use them in portrait or landscape, the result should be the very same and you have nothing to do With these new patches the games should allow you to use any resolutions in the options, it's safe, so use the best one for each of them. (this resolution won't be used, the game will run in your desktop resolution but the result will be really better with the highest resolution available) That's all, Enjoy

Hi, I spent the last months more on pinballs than in arcade games I managed to do something awesome using the CRTGeomMOD shader and it's pixel detection last days : making all the 4 old ProPinball games runing in portrait mode with perfect cabinet camera view To do so I changed a few things and added a pov setting in the shader : and it works perfect !! You can download the configs here (ready to use) : Big Race USA : https://www.mediafire.com/file/8monxwt6qbi5986/BigRaceUSA_CabView_V3.rar/file Fantastic Journey : https://www.mediafire.com/file/w4l1wilek60p4zs/FantasticJourney_CabView_V3.rar/file Timeshock! : https://www.mediafire.com/file/5zr077fkrkm0mck/Timeshock_CabView_V3.rar/file The Web : https://www.mediafire.com/file/8ft21aktxs2hf30/TheWeb_CabView_V3.rar/file As usual just extract the archive in your game directory and set the game to use the 3rd View in the options /!\ For TheWeb you have to choose the 1st View /!\ The patches work with the original old games (CD) and the GOG versions too. The games can be launched with the screen in landscape or portrait mode (the result will be the same). The settings are done for a 16:9 ratio cabinet screen (15:9 and 16:10 are OK too). The games will run in portrait mode at your desktop resolution (any resolution should be supported). But even if not really used to display, don't set the game to a resolution not supported by your screen (don't set 1600x1200 with a 1080p screen for example) For information the resolution choosen in the options will still affect the visual quality so set the best available resolution. All the resolutions should be enabled in the game options when using the patch so you can set 1600x1200 (1280x1024 for The Web) and the result will be better These patches don't include any part of the games and won't change any of their files. (to run the games as usual, just rename ddraw.dll to something else) I also made the aprons and the backglass for all 3 games (included) I'm very pleased to share this work because I love these 3 games for more than 20 years now. And I didn't play them for years just because unfortunately they were made only for 4:3 landscape screens and so until now they could not run in pincabs Here some demo video : I hope it will bring these games back to life in pincabs !! Enjoy! Edit : I just added a PinballFX3 config to get a nice pincab view using the 2nd view of the game (available in the usual PC games configs directory) Edit2 : Configs updated

Salut, le truc du pixel test c'est un truc vraiment génial que Ducon avait ajouté mais je pense que personne ne sait s'en servir :D Je l'avais un peu optimisé pour que ce soit plus simple et que ça fonctionne de manière stable et fixe dans tous les cas de figure mais on a jamais expliqué ni documenté à vrai dire... En fait le but c'est de trouver une combinaison de 2 pixels sur ton écran qui ne sont à cette position et de cette couleur qu'au moment où tu veux activer l'effet CRT Faut donc en trouver 2 points de ton écran ingame dont les couleurs ne sont pas très courantes, qui ne changent jamais ingame!!!, et qui auront peut de chance de se retrouver ensemble par hasard en dehors du gameplay (durant les videos d'intro par example...). La définition de ces points doit se faire en 1920x1080 (j'ai imposé le truc dans le code pour qu'après ça puisse continuer à fonctionner dans les autres résolutions sans rien avoir à changer). Quand t'en a trouvé 2 biens à l'aide d'un screenshot (souvent c'est dans l'UI qu'il faut chercher le reste ca bouge trop) tu prends leurs positions et leurs valeurs RVB et tu les mets en consigne pour le le pixel test. Tu peux régler une sorte de tolérance. Si la tolérance est trop faible ca marchera plus, si elle est trop forte tu risque de voir ton effet CRT s'activer à des moments où t'en voulais pas :D Voilà en gros : donc couleurs et positions en 1920x1080 de 2 points et régler la tolérance. Après en faisant de légères modifs dans le code tu peux faire des trucs comme ça avec (normalement les shaders modifiés sont dispo dans les configs) : Il y a peu de configs qui s'en servent vraiment mais parmis elles si ma mémoire est bonne il y a : R-Type Dimensions, Raiden V, Raiden IV PC, ArcanaHeartLM6S (AC et PC), Les DeltaZeal, XIIZeal, XenoCrisis, GuiltyGear1 PC, SteelEmpire,... Mais pas beaucoup plus je pense

I don't know, I never tested Oui Demul change le ratio tardivement et parfois le shader ne se met pas à jour... Faut mettre un temps plus long je pense (je crois que j'avais mis cette option) ca devrait marcher

It's quite simple : The arts (bezel/background) are defined in the code to be in 16:9, but you can make a 21:9 bezel image and resize it to 16:9 (I'm not sure you have to resize it in 16:9 but probably...) and then in game use the "art ratio" slider in the shader to stretch it back in 21:9. Si tu dois toujours utiliser les configs sinon rien ne sera paramétré pour le jeu et tu devras tout paramétrer toi-même. Le truc c'est qu'avant reshade et GameLoaderAllRH n'était pas vraiment compatibles et depuis cette mise à jour ils le sont.

Just tried with kof14 and 64 bit version renamed "d3d11.dll" works

Hi, You can do it like that, this is what I do for darius for example (3 screens) PS : "flat version" looks better in my case (3 screens displayed in a single one) # # BGFX POST-PROCESSING OPTIONS # bgfx_path bgfx bgfx_backend glsl bgfx_debug 0 bgfx_screen_chains crt-geom-mod-deluxe-flat,crt-geom-mod-deluxe-flat,crt-geom-mod-deluxe-flat bgfx_shadow_mask slot-mask.png bgfx_lut bgfx_avi_name auto

The BGFX chain settings are not saved by MAME so you have to edit the chain setting file : bgfx\chains\crt-geom-mod-deluxe.json The best you can change to set the intensity of the effect is "Aperture strength". This is not really the scanline strength but the "dot effet" strength... 0.3 (default) is probably too high, 0.25 or 0.2 should be better; Also if you don't like the alternate pixel effect you can set "Textured Mask Size" to 1.0 instead of 2.0 and update at the end to get " { "sampler": "mask_texture", "texture": "bgfx/chains/crt-geom/custom-mask.png", "selection": "Shadow mask" } " If you want to use different settings for some games, you can make a copy of this file (renamed "crt-geom-mod-deluxe1.json" for example), set in this file different settings and use this customized chain for the games you want

For the reshade version (v3): the higher the resolution, better will be the result. Most v3 configs are "resolution free" and so they could be used in any resolution (exepting a few ones where the resolution restriction is given in the readme and most often it's more a simple "ratio" restriction to match the settings used) There is usually nothing to change for 4K but the bad side will probably be the performances... (you often need a high-end computer to play in 4K with the CRT-Effect applied) For the Mame BGFX version, it works in any resolution without any issue. In fact it should be even more beautiful in 4K than in FullHD and again even more good in 8K (if you can handle it...) But below 1080p the result won't be very good and to be clear in 720p or less it could be really awful So 1080p is good enough, 1440p should be very good! 2160p will be very nice but needs a very good computer, ..etc..

strange, it should work... In your ini you should have : # OSD VIDEO OPTIONS # video bgfx and # # BGFX POST-PROCESSING OPTIONS # bgfx_path bgfx bgfx_backend glsl bgfx_debug 0 bgfx_screen_chains crt-geom-mod-deluxe "glsl" for the backend works better for me than "auto" (dx11) but you can use any other. Hope it helps. Please keep me informed.

yes your mame version is probably too old. If I remember good it was tested for 0.217 and still work with the last mame versions (any of them) but I don't know for the older ones.

Yes it's annoying I know but you can edit them all in 1 single time using notepad++ for exemple.

There is a MAME BGFX shader : https://www.mediafire.com/file/puhq42l6ku7tnc3/CRT-Geom_MOD_Deluxe_MAME_%28BGFX%29.rar/file To use you need to set MAME video option to "BGFX" and BGFX_screen_chains to "crt-geom-mod-deluxe" (in mame.ini and games inis also)

I don't know for ChaseHQ2 (never tested) but for SFIV it should work. Check "inp_video_size" settings (if the game is not stretched to your full screen display it should be set to the game resolution) PS: Huntdown (PC) config just added

To lower the dot effect you just have to edit "bgfx\chains\crt-geom-mod-deluxe.json" with notepad and put a lower default value in "Aperture strength"

Using Demul's config and the loader included it should work. But the CRT effect itself is set to disable by default for Hikaru games because Demul use a small 640x480 buffer for them and the CRT effect needs more to be displayed correctly...

Oui exact , c'est exactement ce que fait le loader

Si jamais ça peut aider je viens de trouver comment fixer simplement Yatagarusu pour ceux qui ont le fond noir En fait il suffit de passer le symbole décimal en point "." au lieu de la virgule "," dans les options régionales. Comme ça : Avant : Après : Edit : Voici un loader maison qui fait ça et qui remet le paramètre d'origine à la sortie du jeu : https://www.mediafire.com/file/3fjekpirpy60sxr/YatagarusuFix.zip/file Note :L'exe réel du jeu doit être nommé "game.exe" Par défaut ce loader lance "Game Loader All RH.exe" s'il existe, sinon "NESiCA_Unlocker.exe" s'il existe, sinon il lance simplement "game.exe"

Merci

génial je vais tester Et il y a la même chose mais avec "-" pour par doubler les fonctions? Du genre : D-Pad Left=A-Left shift A=Left Shift-A-Z-D-S Left Analog Left=Left Shift&A Je sais je suis chiant

Ca serait bien cool Sinon un truc probablement plus simple et qui serait bien pratique ça serait de pouvoir attribuer des combinaisons de touches. Du genre : Left Analog Left=Left Shift + A Ca ce serait vraiment la classe!!

Merci les 2 jeux fonctionnent impec, Cool d'avoir les voix en fr et les DLC et TU de Carbon marchent impec avec cette version

I own Burnout Paradise remaster and the game is perfect: nothing to fix. It was sold for 5€ for original game owners and includes all dlcs never released on PC (including the island) But Hot Pursuit remaster is priced very high, it looks nearly the same as the original game and brings nearly nothing exepting a few dlcs... BTW if it was priced 5€ too I would buy it

Un truc qui serait vraiment cool ca serait qu'on puisse aussi remapper ses pads avec ce truc. x360ce ne gere pas le clavier et j'arrive pas à remapper mes pads avec (j'ai déjà des pads xbox360 et c'est surement pour ça que ca déconne) Du coup j'utilise parfois dans ce but ta version de x360kb qui a de belles options d'ailleurs mais je suis obligé de passer par joy2key en premier lieu et c'est un peu dommage
