[Question] Can I turn hd mode 7 off? #92

Closed ghost closed 3 years ago

ghost commented 3 years ago

Some games run bad on my pc with hd mode 7,so I sometimes want to turn it off. The problem is that when I change the hd mode 7 resolution to something lower,that then the whole game is rendered in that low resolution. I also don't want to switch to normal bsnes,cause I want widescreen and hd mode 7 works for many games. And also,can I set hd mode 7 to something lower than the other ingame resolution.

No, sorry, the scale is linked directly to HD Mode 7. I can put it on the to-do list to change that, but it's non-trivial. Much more so if you want resolutions larger than 1x but smaller than the output. What features exactly are you using, that the higher scale has relevant benefits with Mode 7 being low-res? Are you asking because of performance, or for visual/artistic reasons?

Are you asking because of performance

That the non hd-mode-7 things have the resolution that my monitor has and therefore look the best. I want that hd-mode-7 has a lower resolution cause it would cost less performance then,cause I also use run-ahead and therefore I can't use hd-mode-7 with a high resolution.

Just use nearest neighbor and integer scaling and you'll get the same result. In standalone that's Settings/Output/Center and Settings/Shader/None. (Scale 1x) RetroArch can do the same.

I'll close this, as there is no need for change. I can explain further, but preferably on Discord.
