If you’re looking to improve the graphics on your TRIMUI Smart Pro for Sony PlayStation 1 (PSX) games, follow these steps:
Increase Resolution
- During gameplay, press the Menu button and select the Advanced menu.
- This will open the Quick menu (or you may already be in it).
- Select Core options > GPU Plugin.
- Toggle the Enhanced Resolution checkbox to “ON.” Note that this increases the resolution, but in some games like Road Rash Jailbreak, this works well, while in others like Nightmare Creatures 2, you might experience slowdowns and sound issues. Adjust based on the game.
- Return to Core Options and select Manage Core Options > Save Game Options to retain the settings.
Install a Shader
- Go to Quick Menu > Shaders > Load Preset.
- Choose a shader. For example, scanline.glslp in the shaders_glsl > scanlines directory offers a scanline effect that mimics an old TV, reducing pixelation and making the image appear more vibrant.
- In Shaders > Save Preset, select Save Game Preset. You can also save it for the core, content in the folder, etc., as per your preference. This shader can be used alongside Enhanced Resolution or on its own, as seen in Nightmare Creatures 2, where it improves the picture quality even without increased resolution.
Full Screen Options
Navigate to Applications > System Tools > EMULATORS > OVERLAYS to select full-screen settings for all games. Note that this is done within the system itself, not in RetroArch.
