Improvements since 1.2.0
Picture
- One aspect ratio setting: the core's own, now called Aspect ratio and first in Display > Picture. The app's separate ratio (4:3, 16:9, 16:10, 1:1, Stretch) is gone, so the picture always follows the core.
- Widescreen Hack moved from Graphics to Display, right under Aspect ratio. Turning it on sets the ratio to 16:9 and remembers the one you had; turning it off puts that one back (4:3 if none was remembered). The remembered ratio is saved in the settings file. Nothing changes if the hack's value does not actually change, such as pressing Triangle on a default.
- Custom Aspect Ratio Numerator and Denominator now sit under Screen fit, above Integer scaling. They only matter when Aspect ratio is set to Custom.
- The Aspect ratio and Widescreen Hack descriptions now say what they do: the hack only has an effect with a ratio wider than 4:3, such as 16:9.
- The game artwork border (bezel) is no longer drawn with a widescreen picture, because its window is 4:3. Before, 16:9 with the Widescreen Hack was ignored when the border was on.
First start
- The interface language now follows the console's language the first time the app runs, or after a factory reset or without a settings file: French, Portuguese, Spanish (Spain or Latin America) and Japanese map to their own; any other language uses English. An existing settings file keeps its language.
Translations
- Texts that name other menus and settings now use each language's menu names: Settings > Commandes in French, Configuración in Spanish, Tramado, Retroceder and Retour en arrière, Color de la portada, and the Screen fit and Custom names.
Installing this version shows the factory-reset question, which also clears the per-game settings.
