What does it do?
----------------------------------------
* Adds an auto-generated bezel around the screen with reflection
* Enable easier use of bezels and more "natural" presentation
* Ease of use for screen scaling and automatic aspect ratio with existing shaders
* Provide a consistent set of enhanced features wrapped around the core crt shaders
* Layering images to add artwork and visual effects
----------------------------------------
How does it work?
----------------------------------------
* In general there is a background image which fills the screen, then the scaled down game screen with an automatically generated bezel image is drawn on top.
* The bezel and frame you see around the screen is auto generated and not part of the background image
* Additional Images can be layered on top to augment the look
* Most things can be changed to your taste with adjustment of the parameters, so try them out!
----------------------------------------
Installation
----------------------------------------
* **You MUST use Retroarch Version 1.9.8 or Later** (It will fail to load on earlier versions)
* If you have previous versions of the Mega Bezel installed:
* Delete the old Mega Bezel stuff from shaders/shaders_slang/bezel
* Inside the .zip is a bezel folder, copy the bezel folder into your Retroarch/shaders/shaders_slang folder
* The final path to the Mega bezel should be `Retroarch/shaders/shaders_slang/bezel/Mega_Bezel`
* If you are using any community packages (including the examples) place them in:
* `Retroarch/shaders/Mega_Bezel_Community_Collections`
* E.G. the examples go here `Retroarch/shaders/Mega_Bezel_Community_Collections/HSM-Mega-Bezel-Examples`
* Set video driver to **Vulcan**
* It will run in **GLCore** but seems faster in **Vulcan**
* Some users have run it with a very long load time in **D3D11** (Not Recommended)
* Restart after changing the video driver
* Open the **Settings** Menu and Set:
* **Video / Scaling / Aspect Ratio** to **Full**
* This will match your monitor aspect aspect ratio
* **Video / Scaling / Integer Scale** to **OFF**
* **Video / Output / Video Rotation** to **Normal**
* **User Interface / Show Advanced Settings** to **ON**
* **Core / Allow Rotation** to **OFF** -- **Important for FB Neo**
* Do this Before loading content
* **Load a preset** in the shaders menu, Mega Bezel shader presets are found in:
* shaders/shaders_slang/bezel/Mega_Bezel/Presets
* When you **save a preset** make sure you have the **Simple Presets** feature set to **ON**
* This will save a preset with a reference to the preset you loaded plus whatever parameter changes you made
* This will keep your presets loading properly when the shader updates in the future
----------------------------------------
Choosing a Preset
----------------------------------------
* Presets are named/sorted by performance
* The most flexible and most resource hungry start with index 0.
* As the name's index number increases the performance of the preset improves but but flexibility decreases.
* The presets with the lowest performance requirements are:
* MBZ__3__STD__GDV-MINI - This has a Dynamic Bezel and Reflections
* MBZ__4__STD-NO-REFLECT__GDV-MINI - This Has a Dynamic Bezel but No Reflections
* MBZ__5__POTATO__GDV-MINI - This has no Dynamic Bezel and no Reflections
----------------------------------------
Presets in Mega_Bezel / Presets
----------------------------------------
- All in the root of the Presets folder use @guest.r's awesome Guest-DrVenom-Advanced CRT shader which is considered the default CRT shader for the Mega Bezel, the only exception to this is the POTATO preset which uses GDV-MINI for performance reasons.

* Presets which set the resolution at the beginning of the shader chain
* Good for reducing the resolution from the core to native res to use with a crt shader
* Helps working with cores which are outputting at increased internal resolution, e.g. 2x, 4k this creates antialiasing at native res which comes from rendering at a higher resolution then reducing it
**HSM Examples Package (Separate additional Package from Mega Bezel)**
* **Community_CRT_Variations**
- Presets with crt settings created by community members
- Thanks to some of our community members who's settings appear here including @BendBombBoom, @NesGuy, @Sonkun & @Cyberlab
* **Variations**
* These presets are simple presets referencing one of the presets in the Mega_Bezel folder
* They reference the original preset then have adjusted parameters or texture paths
* **Experimental**
* **Use at your own risk!**
* These presets are work in progress and are likely to be moved, renamed, dissappear or change behavior at any future release

**Troubleshooting**
----------------------------------------
---
* **If you have difficulties loading the shader** try loading it with the imageviewer core
* **Steps**
* Add the imageviewer core to Retroarch with the online updater
* Open an image with this core
* Load the shader
* If the shader loads correctly then the shader is working.
* When the shader works in imageviewer, but doesn’t work when using a core, it is probably related to the core, or the graphics card being overwhelmed by resource usage with both the core requirements and the shader requirements
* If it is the core resolution overwhelming the resources, try a STD preset, or a STD-DREZ preset to reduce the resolution used within the shader chain
* If you still have difficulties loading the shader with a specific core, try updating the core
* If you still have difficulties download a new separate version of Retroarch and try it there. Sometimes problems lurk in a random config file which is very hard to track down
* **To see errors** coming from Retroarch you need to set up your logging settings:
* **Logging - Logging Verbosity - ON**
* **Frontend Logging - 0(Debug)**
* **Log to File - Off**
* These settings will **cause a log window to come up** when you launch, and you should see any Retroarch errors, and shader loading details
---
**If the Screen is changing size unexpectedly**
* If the screen changes size when loading a game or switching between different parts of the game e.g. gameplay vs cinematic, this is because of the interaction between the different resolutions the core is outputting on different screens and the shader's integer scale or automatic aspect ratio settings.
* **How to fix**
* **Make sure Integer Scale is OFF in the RetroArch Video Settings**
* **If BOTH the HEIGHT and WIDTH of the screen size are changing size**
* Set the Integer scale mode to OFF (0)
* **If ONLY the WIDTH of the screen is changing size** (the HEIGHT stays constant)
* Set the Aspect Ratio Type to Explicit (1) This will use the explicit aspect ratio number instead of guessing
* If this solves your issue please consider posting on the thread at the top of this document the issue you had so that we can improve the auto aspect ratio in the future
---
**If you see artifacts on the game image like circles or interference patterns**
* These artifacts which look like round swirls or circles like tree trunk rings are called a Moiré patterns which happen when a high frequency pattern is sampled at a lower frequency - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moiré_pattern
* The base cause of the Moiré pattern is usually the curvature in combination with visible scanlines
* **How to fix**
* Set **CRT Curvature Scale Multiplier** to 0, This will remove curvature from the game image but leave everything else the same
* Set **Integer Scale Mode** to 1 or 2
* Make the game screen larger with either **Viewport Zoom** or **Non-Integer Scale %**
* Use a higher resolution monitor if available

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**[ CRT SCREEN SCALING GENERAL ]:**
- **Integer Scale Mode**
- **0 - Off,** Use Non-Integer Scale
- **1 - ShortAxis Integer Scale On** - for the viewport (monitor) in landscape mode this is the vertical axis, If the screen/tube aspect ratio is vertical then integer scale is used for both horizontal and vertical axes
- **2 - Integer Scale on both axes**
- **Preset is for Monitor Portrait Mode (Smaller CRT Screen)**
- Turn on if this preset is to be used on monitor in Portrait mode, E.G. if your physical monitor is turned vertical
**[ INTEGER SCALE ]:**
- **Base Integer Scale Max Height %**
- The maximum screen height of the default integer scale when integer scale is on
- **Integer Scale Multiple Offset**
- Adjusts the size of the screen by increasing the multiple of the core resolution (on both axes) when using integer scale, to make the screen larger or smaller
- **Integer Scale Multiple Offset Long Axis**
- Adds an additional multiple offset but for only the long axis, with a horizontal aspect ratio this is the horizontal axis
**[ NON-INTEGER SCALE PERCENT ]:**
- **Non-Integer Scale %**
- If integer scale isn't used, this sets the vertical size of the vertical percentage of the full viewport. The default is 82.97 which corresponds to an exact integer scale of 224p content
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**[ NON INTEGER - PHYSICAL SIZES ]:**
- **Use Physical Monitor and Tube Sizes for Non-Integer**

**[ --- SMOOTHING - SCALEFX - SMOOTH-ADV Presets Only ---- ]:**
**ScaleFX ON** applies a shape smoothing on the core image and creates a higher resolution smoothed image
- After you turn this on you must increase **Core Res Sampling**, or **Downsample Blur** in the next section to see a difference
- ScaleFX only works well when the it's input is the native res from the core
To see the contour smoothing coming from **ScaleFX** either **Core Res Sampling**, or **Downsample Blur** must be increased from their default value.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**[ SCANLINE DIRECTION ]:**
- **Scanline Direction** - Direction of the scanlines
- **0 - Auto** --- Chooses horizontal or vertical scanline direction based on aspect ratio
- **1 - Horizontal**
