This guide is a source summary of the official RetroArch documentation page for xsoft shaders. The page itself is a stub: it presents shader names, preview images, and external repository links, but contains no background text, no prerequisite list, no step-by-step instructions, and no settings or limitations notes.
What the official page lists
- 4xsoft
- 4xsoftSdB
Each of the two listed shaders is accompanied by a preview image on the official page, referenced as ../image/shader/xsoft/4xsoft.png for 4xsoft and ../image/shader/xsoft/4xsoftSdB.png for 4xsoftSdB.
External links on the official page
The source page links out to three shader repositories: Slang Shaders at https://github.com/libretro/slang-shaders, GLSL Shaders at https://github.com/libretro/glsl-shaders, and CG Shaders at https://github.com/libretro/common-shaders.
