Emulators for Gamecube 240p

Post by GenPDP7 » Sat Nov 16, 2019 11:37 pm

I have got homebrew running on my Gamecube, but I've found that the emulators available run in 480i only. And for some reason SWISS doesn't even give the option to force them into 240p. Anybody run into this? Any solutions for getting emulators working in 240p?

Swiss doesn't give the option because Swiss doesn't support patching homebrew software, nor are they telling Swiss about it.

The following emulators have a 240p option:
  • Enhanced mGBA (by command-line argument)
  • FCE Ultra GX
  • Genesis Plus GX
  • Not64 (by command-line argument or configuration file)
  • RetroArch
  • Snes9x GX
  • Visual Boy Advance GX

I've got Snes9x GX installed and the video options do not include 240p. How do I set it to that mode? Much appreciated! (Same question for FCE Ultra GX). Please note this is not on a Wii. It's on a Gamecube.
EDIT: Oh, I found it. It's "rendering".

So do I understand correctly that setting the resolution for homebrew through Swiss (like with .DOLs) is something that cannot be done because of how things fundamentally work?

Is it possible to start each emulator in 480i or 240p? I'm using a BVM F20 which sort of shows 480p but its a double image so not easy to use. Got the games working fine in 480i / 240p just not the initial menu.

Thanks"
