Homebrew TWPatcher - DS(i) mode screen filters and patches

[Nicota]

Put a "pause" on a new line in the bat and read why it doesn't create it.

ok ill try that

is it possible that the Cia patcher doesn't work on my console? I've tried applying it multiple times but I don't see a difference

Do you have patching enabled in Luma (hold select when powering on: third option: 'Enable loading external FIRMS and modules' should have (x) by it rather than ( ) )? It's possible the patch was created, but isn't having an effect because it's not being loaded by Luma.

I think the source of this trouble is this: When Luma is updated to a new version, it launches itself during startup, once, for the first time after the update, with a settings screen, where ALL options are unchecked. If you skip that screen, tons of homebrew stuff doesn't work properly. It's a problem. I know which options to check off, but I'm sure a lot of people just skip through it. I would say that line 2 (game patching) and 3 (show NAND) should be enabled by default. I also have line 1 enabled (external firms).

The computer patcher is only for widescreen at this time. In fact it makes the scaling otherwise somewhat worse. Only use if you want widescreen, stick to the 3DS patcher if you just want different scaling options within the usual 4:3 aspect ratio.

Wait what's there is a .cia 3ds patcher?

The patcher already includes the widescreen patch, and all patches have been tested across various system versions and old3DS/new3DS, and they all seem to work. The problem is that there is no GUI to change which mods you want to apply, and I'm bad at making GUIs. The awful weather changes don't help me either, hence the extreme delay on a trivial task.

Does the cia patcher do widescreen or only the filters?

The cia one only has filters. The exe only has patches. Merging the two requires extra patches, so I haven't done it yet :/

okay thankyou, do you know if the exe works with wine?

Yes, I'm using Linux, and I even compile the patcher in wine.

Don't have a PC atm, but saw on the previous page I may be able to upres DS games without one, straight from my 3DS? I'm not interested in widescreen, just the upres, is it possible with just my 3DS?

Which post, exactly?

One page over.

Are my queries possible?

Upscaling is NOT possible because that would require changing the DS "GPU" silicon itself. The resolution will always be 256x192.

If you mean the upscale filters (which do "magic" to make the upscaled image look more sharp than the original) then only the patcher cia can do that.

hello!
i have a question, which filter from the patcher cia is the best for pokémon games (especially BW/BW2)?
thanks!

The coding on the right side of the screen is removed to achieve the stretching effect, and the picture quality is not optimized.
