Thanx. Here's my second set up, I adjusted it a bit and got it a bit nicer looking.





How you do this.. well, first you must use ps1 emu with Retroarch. And then add  super-4xbr-3d-4p as a shader. However I have adjusted that preset a bit on my own. If you want to  I could upload presets. It is important that you run this in 2x internal and 4k external. That is, chose full screen in the config file and 3840 × 2160 as resolution.
It is then filtered by my own ReShade preset wich contains ALOOT of debanding and some sharpening and vibrance. I could also give you my preset.

I would love an upload of the shader and the reshade preset. These look great. Far better results than I've ever gotten.

Here are some more examples. And I dont know why, but it looks a bit better in game. I don't know why some of the quality is lost.




Here you can see that small text is still readable










Here is my custom preset for the Retroarch shader.

Something is wierd with my ReShade and I can not share any config. But I will tell you what to set.
First is effect ordering, this is important.

High Pass Sharpening -> Vibrance -> Deband

High Pass Sharpening values -

1.0
2
0.80
1
1.69

1.0
1.0
0.00
0.00
0

Vibrance values -

0.30

1.00
1.00
1.00

Deband values -

18.0
0.100
8
3
3

0
1.0
0.0

Remember that after this, you also have to make Retroarch run in fullscreen 4k resolution. And the internal resolution should be 2x to get the best out of the pre-rendered backgrounds.

I have made some changes to my settings. A different Deband configuration and 4x internal instead of 2, resulting in more detailed backgrounds and higher res characters and other 3d elements :)
