Sharpness, Fisheye, Renderscale, and Chromatic Aberration shaders

As a Roblox developer, it is currently impossible to create convincing photo-realistic VHS-style scenes with the current tools that we have.

With Sharpness, fisheye, renderscale, and chromatic aberration shaders, we would be able to create convincing scenes such as this:

These filters would work for any 80s style experience, as well as any liminal / dreamcore / backrooms style game. They would also work for bodycam style games.

The fisheye effect would create the funniest scenes

Even better, fisheye distortion for the chromatic abberation, so only the edges of the screen are affected, leaving the center (where the player is looking at only 99% of the time) unaffected.

a little artistic flair..

Roblox: “No.”
Me: “RoShade worked just fine though?”
Roblox: “RoShade was an external application, not sanctioned at all by us.”
Me: “But it still worked fine. Have it be among segregated graphics sliders! Next to post-processing or part of it!”
Roblox: “Keep dreaming buddy. Someone from above is pushing down and stopping us from adding it otherwise we would’ve added it by now.”
Me: “WTF!!!”
Roblox: “I know.”

I would love to see more post-processing effects inside of Roblox. Imagine the possibilities it unleashes with just these 4 post processing effects,

This’d be REALLY nice to achieve certain effects like old camera POVs or just making your game look real nice in general.
Some of these effects would work really nice in certain horror games too.

BUMP.

Would be awesome to get more post-processing effects as we were promised almost a decade ago!

Would be even cooler to get the feature to apply these to guis!

BUMPING THIS!

It would be great to have more processing effects for Lighting, as it could enhance user immersion more. It could also raise the quality of games on Roblox, especially games in the field of horror.

Bump add posterization too.

Posterization is already possible but we have to do a trick to get it. The trick works for all devices and is real posturisation
