The issue with the patch is that it removes the intro cutscene of the game and I think some other things as well.
 
Any chance someone could make a 16:10 code for Captain America Super Soldier? It's another Griptonite joint but one that was strangely omitted here despite even more obscure releases getting one.

(It'd also be nice to see some widescreen codes for Vicarious Visions' Transformers games)
 
Is this hosted somewhere like github?
Is there a way to autoupdate them from the 3DS or does TWLMenu use latest version each update?
 
Hello, im having issues using the cheat on Animal Crossing: Wild World, the top and botton screens dont swap either
 
I know that this is built into TWLMenu++ now, and I tried using it for SM 64 DS (enabled 16:10 widescreen by hitting Y in twilight), but to my eyes it just looks like the screen is stretched rather than actual 16:10 scaled. You notice it on the startup image for the game (which of course is not 3d). Is it still working correctly and that's just what happens when non3d images are displayed? I think somethings off, but I'm sure it's all installed correctly and I have "load external FIRMs and modules" enabled, along with game patching.

Yes, that's normal. Only 3D fields will be expanded, and 2D screens will be stretched.

This game required three ASM patches for proper widescreen. The first one does the main widescreen. The second one patches the 3D to 2D positioning scale. The third one patches the culling plane widths.
Sorry for the tag so long after your message, but I was wondering how to change the E3A0109F values to something that match other aspect ratios. I know for 16:9 it's E3A01090 instead, but I can't figure out how to change that for 21:9 or 32:9 for instance.
Is there a simple way to calculate it? Thank in advance for the help!
 
I will pay anyone who can make a widescreen cheat code for Transformers Decepticons DS
 
Is it possible to get this for fantasy life ?
A free camera mode would also be amazing :c
Fantasy life :3

3840x1080
Can someone help me with this please :')
Wrong thread. This is specifically for widescreen cheats for DS(i) games.
Fantasy Life is a 3DS game.

Fixed balloon popping games. Can someone please test this code.
How do I get this to work? I added this code to a usrcheat file and it plays in 4:3 no matter what I try.
 
Is there a dat file or something that includes all this codes for TwiLight Menu++?
TWiLight Menu++ has all of the widescreen codes in "sd:/_nds/TWiLightMenu/extras/widescreen.pck", and they're automatically enabled once you launch a game with the 16:10 aspect ratio setting.

I thought that in addition of enabling 16:10 I also had to apply cheat codes to make the game render in proper 16:10, and not only stretched graphics.

EDIT

BTW, is it normal that, for example in Metroid Prime Hunters, the graphics are stretched? Or am I doing something wrong?

Hello. I've tried out the 16:9 widescreen cheat for Metroid Prime Hunters in melonprimeDS (a modded melonDS to make the game compatible with keyboard and mouse) and it works properly when playing adventure mode or wireless, but strangeley enough when playing in wi-fi the code seems to malfunction and it messes up with how inside layers are displayed, making it very ugly and uncomfortable to play.

Here's video proof (sorry for the bad quality, I didn't want the video to take much space in my drive and I think the error is visible enough xd)

Any idea on what could be going wrong or how could it be fixed? I'm using a modded KR 1.0 rom, haven't tested in a vanilla rom or other region, but I have friends that have that tell me this happens as well.

EDIT: I just tested 16:10 and it has the same error =/
