Resolution scaling
- The scaling for the games can be imperfect. Bilinear and trilinear filtering smears the image, while point filtering introduces pixel shimmering in non-integer resolutions.

No Checkerboard Dithering
- This game utilizes checkerboard patterns that on CRTs would become smoothly dithered, but on modern displays it leaves ugly patterns everywhere.
| Use ReShade Shaders. Either emulate CRT effects (if you like that style) or use a shader like Mdapt or SGENPT-MIX that intelligently dithers the checkerboard while leaving the rest of the game untouched (better if you like the way the game already looks)[7] |
