B2recomp v0.2.7 fixes a blurry picture on screens with display scaling and a crash in Tag Climax’s online mode. As before, this download contains no game files: the game is built on your PC from your own dump.
Fixed
- Sharp picture on screens with display scaling. On a screen where Windows display scaling is above 100 % (common on 4K monitors and laptops), Windows gave the game a smaller “virtual” screen and stretched its picture: on a 4K screen at 300 %, the game drew 1280 × 720 and Windows enlarged it three times, so even a high Resolution scale looked blurry. The game now tells Windows it handles scaling itself: Borderless and Fullscreen use your screen’s real resolution, and a Windowed game keeps the size it had before. At 100 % scaling nothing changes.
- Tag Climax online no longer closes the game. Choosing Online and then Quick Match showed “Error Code: 2618-0006” and then the game closed. Online play cannot work in B2recomp (it cannot connect to Nintendo’s online services), but now the game says so properly: a short message explains that online play is not available, the game shows its own “Not connected to the Internet.” and you are back in the Online Menu.
How to use
- Unzip B2recomp-builder-b3a6dc6.zip into a new folder.
- Start B2recomp.exe, choose your dump folder and press Build (about 5 minutes on a 16-thread PC).
- When the build is done, choose your settings and press Play.
Updating from v0.2.x: after the build, copy these folders from your old B2recomp folder into the new one:
- build\play\userdata (your saves);
- config (your settings and controls);
- optionally cache, so the game does not prepare its shaders again on the first start.
Windows SmartScreen may warn about B2recomp.exe because it is not signed: choose “More info”, then “Run anyway”.
Status
Both fixes were tested on Windows with an NVIDIA card: the display scaling fix at 100 % scaling and with a switch to 150 % while playing borderless (the window sizes for scaled screens were checked with a test setting), the Tag Climax fix by choosing Quick Match several times. If something looks wrong, a report helps: press Report... in the launcher and attach b2recomp-report.zip to an issue (never attach game files).
