[Request] Option to remove dithering #1012

Open RinMaru opened 1 year ago

RinMaru commented 1 year ago

While dithering is more accurate to hw of the time its really ugly on newer displays. Would it be too much to have an option to disable dithering on Nintendo 64 and Ps1 or any other systems that utilize dither?

It appears this would first require updates to parallel-rdp in order to remove dithering, for N64 at least. Someone has opened an experimental pull request in the parallel-rdp repo a few months ago ( https://github.com/Themaister/parallel-rdp/pull/35 ) but it would need some work and it is unknown if it will be implemented. I didn't check the MAME RDP implementation, but if it doesn't exist (I would guess it doesn't) then updates to MAME would also need to be made first. Then this could be exposed as a video setting in ares.

If required in additional systems such as PS1 then that would require additional work.
