So, if you would want 4x resolution upscaling with 4x SSAA, you’d set ‘Downsample’ to ‘1/2’. From there, you can apply some frontend shaders on top to create a very nice and compelling look that still looks better than native resolution but is also still very faithful to it. This gives you a very smoothed out anti-aliased picture that for all intents and purposes still outputs at 240p/240i. What happens from there is that this internal higher resolution image is then downscaled to either half its size, one quarter of its size, or one eight of its size. The idea is that you internally upscale at a higher resolution, then set this option from ‘Disabled’ to any of the other values. 4x upscale means 16x times the work that 1x Angrylion would churn through.Īvailable options: Disabled, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8Īlso known as SSAA, this works pretty similar to the SSAA downscaling feature in Beetle PSX HW’s Vulkan renderer.

Even when upscaling, the rendering is still rendering at full accuracy, and it is still all software rendered on the GPU. 2x and 4x by comparison are much lighter. Your mileage may vary, just be forewarned. System requirements are steep for 8x and we generally don’t recommend anything less than a 1080 Ti or better for this. NOTE: It bears noting that 8x requires at least 5GB/6GB VRAM on your GPU. 1x is default and is the native resolution. The upscaling factor for the internal resolution.

We make no guarantees as to what kind of performance you can expect across these platforms, this is all contingent on your GPU’s Vulkan drivers and its compute power. RDP upscaling is available right now on Windows, Linux, and Android. Look for instance at this Mario 64 screenshot here with the game running at 2x internal upscale (512×448). This results in even games that run at just 2x native resolution looking significantly better than the same resolution running on an HLE RDP renderer. Super Mario 64 running on ParaLLEl RDP with 2x internal upscale This means that even though our internal resolution might be 1024×896, this will then be further smoothed out by this aggressive AA postprocessing step. As part of this interface’s postprocessing routines, it automatically applies an approximation of 8x MSAA (Multi-Sampled Anti-Aliasing) to the image. As said before, unlike so many HLE renderers, ParaLLEl RDP fully emulates the RCP’s VI Interface. Now, here comes the good stuff with LLE RDP emulation. When you set resolution upscaling to 2x, you are multiplying the input resolution by 2x. You can upscale in integer steps of the base resolution. The graphics output you get is unlike any HLE renderer you’ve ever seen before for the past twenty years, since unlike them, there is full VI emulation (including dithering, divot filtering, and basic edge anti-aliasing). ParaLLEl RDP is the world’s first Low-Level RDP renderer capable of upscaling. Many users indicated over the past few weeks that upscaling was desired. So something rendering at native resolution, while obviously accurate, bit-exact and all, was seen as unpalatable to them. It quickly became apparent after launching ParaLLEl RDP that users have grown accustomed to seeing upscaled N64 graphics over the past 20 years. ParaLLEl RDP Upscaling Jet Force Gemini running with 2x internal upscale This combined with a dynarec-powered RSP plugin has made low-level N64 emulation finally possible for the masses at great speeds on modest hardware configurations. For the first time, the very CPU-intensive accurate Angrylion renderer was lifted from CPU to GPU thanks to the powerful low-level graphics API Vulkan. ParaLLEl RDP this year has singlehandedly caused a breakthrough in N64 emulation.
