Kortoga Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 Not sure what I do or don't know about RetroArch, but I am trying to save a new setting for the shader used in my NES games. I followed Simply Austins tutorial, but he likes things to look retro with major scanlines like an old school CRT. I like things looking crisp and clean for my 65 inch LCD screen. How do I set the shaders and save the system setup to start each game without these junked up scanline filters Simply Austin likes. Right now, I will change the way the game looks, try to save the config, but the game loads each time with the scanline filter. What do I do to set this so the cleaner look comes up instead of the scanline look?

Kortoga Posted April 18, 2016 Author Posted April 18, 2016 Thanks...Looking for that setting, I cannot find it. Is it named something else? I am starting a game in Hyperspin using RetroArch, then pressing F1 to go into the setup. There is no 'Save config on exit' selection that I can find. I am using my keyboard right now, and before I go into F1 I use the 'M' and '<' keys to scroll through the different available slots. I like sot 28, which makes the screen look great with my monitor. RRRrrrrr, I just want to save this setup so that it overwrites these dang scanlines that have been set by Austin? I know there is a way, only I don't know it yet.
Kortoga Posted April 18, 2016 Author Posted April 18, 2016 I found under 'General Options' the selection for 'Configuration Save on Exit'. How do I use this to save the settings I have for the next time I load this system? I started RetroArch, set the way I like it to look, set save on exit to 'YES', then I resumed content, then I Quit RestroArch, then I re-started RetroArch, but the same scanline settings are set.

It's there dude - Settings -> Configuration -> Save settings on exit. This is a great resource for RetroArch https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/wiki/RGUI

Have a read of the link in the previous post. It's your starting point.
Kortoga Posted April 18, 2016 Author Posted April 18, 2016 Thanks, that helped me figure out how to Load different Shaders, then Apply them, then once I found a good one, I saved the config by setting the 'Config Save on Exit', exited RetroArch, then re-started. I made sure the settings were kept, then I turned the 'Config sve on exit' OFF. Everything seems good for now, thank you...and I now know how to play with the Shaders.

The RetroArch Wiki on GitHub is a great resource - everything is documented.
