Hacking Widescreen cheats for DS games on 3DS

gamemasterplc · Oct 9, 2019

Castlevania does thankfully use the 3D engine for most of its 2d. Text and some menus are the main exclusions. The number sprites and the sub screen are also exclusions. It however uses the bottom screen for the main screen and some touch features. Just expanding the view causes some disappearing issues on the edges or on the right side along with a few alignment issues especially with touching. Im talking about castlevania dawn of sorrow. In US Dawn of Sorrow, some view parameters are set in the function at 0x20083AC. Dawn of sorrow does thankfully have a patch that allows you to ignore the touch screen at https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/3408/.

The first 3 lines of yu gi oh's code is the code for the battles of the game with the last 3 being for various 3d parts of the game that are mainly on bottom screen.

I had a feeling, but I wasn’t sure, I just saw that the USA code existed but not the other two. I never played the games before, only way for someone to know for sure is to play it all the way through.

Awesome work on all these hacks, thanks DeadSkullzJr.

Added the extra needed address to the Yu-Gi-Oh Nightmare Troubadour games.

Before I add these codes to the thread, do you remember what the new third address hits and whether it's something on the top screen or bottom screen?

EDIT:

DeadSkullzJr said:
These [Beyblade] games will need a screen swap code in order to take advantage of these codes, so again, these aren't final codes to work with.

From a quick scan of some reviews, it seems like these games are very focussed on touch input for gameplay, is that right? Tapping where you want your Beyblade to go, dragging it to move, etc. If those reviews are accurate, it might not really be practical to swap the screens on these games. Mandatory touch input is the bane of screen-swap hacks.

Sort of forgot for the Yu-Gi-Oh games, sorry..The Beyblade games yes require the touch screen so you might be right with functionality cases.

Bakugan might be a similar case in a portion of the game.

16:10 in Dawn of Sorrow is possible. Bottom screen being stretched is no$gba's fault and won't happen on 3ds.

Fixed balloon popping games. Can someone please test this code.

I cant get the platinum code to work properly, the code works because the image looks squashed after applying it so i think its making it widescreen and then squashing it to fit in the smaller width with the black borders still. This is with an r4 card on the new3ds xl

You need to run the game on the SD card for the game to be in widescreen.
Plus, you don't need to add the code manually.

Chances are low, since that game is in 2D.
