Sharp Post Effects

Last update: May 13, 2025

This patch is shipped with PCSX2 starting with v2.3.345.

The original Remove Ghosting Effects patch by PeterDelta.

Two cheats modifying the post effects that can be used separately or together.

Remove Ghosting Effects makes several changes to the post effects to make them appear sharper, especially when using upscaling:
- Removes the offset of the radiosity effect, deleting the “double image” effect.
- Removes a half-pixel offset of the color filter, deleting a slight color smear.
- Removes the “seam removal” filter, deleting the “thick objects” effect when looking at building and props with the sky in the background.
Remove Color Filter removes the yellowish filter of the PS2 port, making the game look more like the PC port, albeit slightly darker.
