Very interesting raffriff42 ! Thanks !

But a light "Oil painting" effect... Sorry, but I'm not totally convinced But however, it's interesting !

Apart from that, I did an alternative version of my "Ultimate script" I called it "New vintage version"

This video of comparison between a CRT display and a LCD display inspired me : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Iwq-blhOtE

My impression was that with the CRT display, the picture has almost a HD look with low resolution material (a Super Nintendo game in this case) compared to the LCD display which is showing big pixels, even if in reality, it's the LCD which is HD

I found that we have approximately the sensation of a vertical resolution 4 times bigger !

So I tried to do a trick

I remind you that I choose to begin with a upscaling of the resolution 320x240, so I rose up to 2560x7680 and reduce the horizontal resolution to 1280 with PointResize.

It's like a vertical resolution approximately 4X more defined.

To create this script, I used this video of Donkey Kong Country played on a CRT display as a model : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GtsHXgB4lM

And this too : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3egFl03LVc

To have a similar image without scanlines or grids, I find it's not so bad :

Anyway, it has always been a kind of trick or illusion ! So, I tried to do the same to get relief !


Here is my script :

I will do a video soon, because it's hard to see the differences with screenshots !
