Force 480p/make games look better

I don't think GX has the ability to force 480p. Configurable does, though. To enable it, set "Video = Force NTSC" and "Video Patch = All" for any games that don't typically support it.

Games this is useful for include Madworld, Kororinpa, Mario Party 8, Spider-Man 3, The Simpsons Game and Metroid Prime Trilogy.

 

I tried this and it works for most games. But in Madworld I get a black screen with "Video = Force NTSC" and "Video Patch = All". No crash, since I can hear the sound.
Any ideas how to solve this?

 

I don't think madworld can be forced to 480p. I tried a few months ago with neogamma I think...

 

I have previous confirmation from two people that 480p Madworld worked for them using Cfg (one PAL, one NTSC), but it may use a different display method than typical 480p, explaining why some TVs might blank out.

 

Tony hawk downhill Jam also looks much better when forced to 480p (runs 480i default, at least in the PAL version).

IMO it would be good if all loaders have the option to force 480p.

 

This is a mega-super-necro thread revival but better to bump this than making a new pointless thread.
Is this still an issue? I mean, Is it necessary to FORCE video modes still? And how does it work on WiiU? After all the WiiU outputs in 1080p no matter the kind of game you feed it. Is it relevant in that case as well?
Reason I'm asking is because I've been playing with CFG configurator and Thought I'd find out if it would be OK (meaning no counterproductive results) to just set video mode to either "System Defined" or "NTSC" and video patch to all. Instead of on a per game basis.
Could that cause some issues? Is it irrelevant (vWii)
Anybody has any info on that?
Thanks and sorry for reviving a VERY old thread.
