[Wii] [GX] 240p display mode support #11

Hi! I'm wondering if it could be possible to add a 240p display mode for us CRT users? Thank you for porting this to the Wii!

Mefiresu commented 1 year ago

This is definitely possible, and is already planned. It will likely have to be enabled through Settings.ini with a special flag.

Does the Sonic CD port have a 240p feature and what special flag?

Mefiresu commented 1 year ago

I'm not the author of the Sonic CD port so I'd say no. The flag isn't implemented yet, but I'm thinking of adding something like 240pMode=y.

EDIT: Previous comment has been deleted, adding it here:

Do you think you can implement it in the next update and also can you also add a 4:3 mode. I remember Sonic mania has an built in 4:3 mode on PC. Also if this is for retro engine do you plan on porting CD, 1, and 2 sometime in the future?

I do this is my spare time, and 240p is kind of a niche use case, so it's at the bottom of my priority list. 4:3 mode is already available, you need to put your Wii in 4:3 in the System Settings (which you should have done already if you're playing on a CRT anyway). CD, 1 and 2 will be playable using RSDKv5U after some bug fixes, no ETA on that. I don't plan to port the other retro engine versions (ports have been made already, so there's no point in doing it again).

Kind request: can 4:3 / 16:9 be changed through the ini? I have my TV setup with a Wii and the System Settings in 16:9, though emulators and other apps give me the option to use it with the aspect ratio corrected, and when they don't, I just quickly flick it using the TV remote. Having the option through the System Settings means having to switch it only to enjoy Mania at 4:3. If you don't want to do it, it's fine, just to be clear. Thanks for the port, I have been enjoying it a lot, Mania on the Wii is a match made in 2D heaven.

Done in PR #17.
