PROBLEM SOLVED!!! Move along folks, move along...

Hi guys, I just hacked a new Vita I got in the mail. Everything is fine except for this issue. Even in full screen mode, the game/image is "widescreen" with black bars above and below the image of the game. And in Normal screen mode, the image doesn't even stretch to the top and bottom of the scree. See screenshots below.

So, I deleted Adrenaline from my Vita (which came through Vita Deploy with the hack, downloaded Adrenaline from GitHub, installed it and it's the same damn thing. This is the first time I have EVER had any issues with a hack. Can anyone steer me in the right direction? I'd really appreciate it.

Thank you!!!

That seems pretty much like it is intended.
The lower pic is the correct aspect ration. The resolution from most PS1 games is 240p or 480i. The native resolution of the Vita is 960 × 544 pixels.
In case of PSP games via Adrenaline, that is ideal, as then the native PSP resolution is exactly 2X increased to match the Vita. with other resolutions you either have bars or ugly stretching.
Also see, if you are playing the PAL or NTSC version of the game, rather take NTSC, so the regular USA version.

You can also try the Retroarch Playstation emulation core(s). That might use different ways to set the screen, like filters and compatibilities might also be different.

Sonofabitch Evil, you were right! (Kind of)...

So CRASH BANDICOOT looks like that on my other Vita, however, the PlayStation game LOADED IS full screen, see below.

PROBLEM SOLVED!!! Actually, there wasn't a problem to begin with, my bad.

As you can see, Loaded plays full screen while Crash is "letterbox".

Thank you Evil, that was a great observation you made.

Cheers Mate!!!

Use custom and try adjusting it yourself.
Great idea! But it's no longer necessary. Thanks for your input!!!

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves

    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.

    It inserts a newline in a random spot.

    never had that i don't think

    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
