Any chance of having a "per game" wiiu widescreen option?
Like for instance, Timesplitters future perfect supports widescreen so I'd like to launch that title with Wiiu Widescreen on but Turok does not. So I'd like to keep the original aspect ratio on that one.
Can it be done?
Thanks for everything.

Use an external loader. I'm partial to USB Loader GX, but many like Wiiflow (which is, by the way, being constantly updated for Nintendont)

Aaaaaaand :ninja:'d again

Our only option for that currently is thru a USB loader of your choice.

I have requested the same some time ago.

Well not EXACTLY the same, but something like a CFG file, configurations per game due to some games not being compatible with Widescreen or Progressive, etc.
It would certainly be handy since it is somewhat bothersome to run a game, then notice that the settings are wrong, reset the loader, change them, play it and then change them again once you want to play another game. :/

Why not just use an external loader?

I always use the standalone app, for both testing and compatibility purposes.
I find it easier to have one app per game console, and even like it or not, Nintendont itself IS a loader.
My only suggestion would be that, to add a configuration file that stores the settings chosen for each game separately.

use an usb loader

I always do.
I use CFG mod (latest rev)
It would be cool thought if [user]FIX94[/user] could find some time to update it but I'm guessing he's busy with more important things (Nintendon't at this point).
And I don't see any option for that (I'm not talking about "forcing" widescreen. I'm talking about the Wiiu Widescreen option)

USB loader GX latest version has this option, so is Abz wiiflow mod.

ON a per game basis?
Last time I checked it was on a global scale.
BTW, to be honest, even though GX LOOKS very cool, it is way, way too unstable for my taste.
CFG is way ahead on that regard.

Could we have widescreen on 4:3 tvs? (pillar boxing top and bottom?) Also I don't understand why Wii U Widescreen is Wii U specific. Why not have it do what it does on wii as well?

I'm guessing because the Wii is analog while the WiiU is digital? HDMI can carry aspect ratio info while composite/component can't (please correct me if I'm wrong)

The Test Menu in Virtua Striker 4 ver.2006 is kinda awkward to navigate can the dpad be inverted patched to correct it just for this game? atm
dpad right = up / Tactics (U)
dpad left = down / Tactics (D)
dpad up = Tactics (M)
+ = down also
The service button is mapped to the long pass button, it does a pause in-game now before passing the ball,
can the service button be mapped to C instead for Triforce games? or have Troopz config made the default one for Triforce games, for instance in Mario Kart Arcade GP 2 with the default config gas is mapped to nunchuck tilt and it effects the menu selections, that's why I Troopz config instead as it maps gas to B.
The card test fails, card r/w not found, in-game also states "card not accepted temporally" although I seem to have had it working earlier???
If the selectable button configs where scrapped and a option added to select your favourite button config via the nintendont menu / config file, it'd free up button 2 for other uses.

I'm glad Triforce save feature is implemented, finally we have the option for the announcer in Mario Kart GP 2, btw you can use your save from QF just copy "csave.bin" and rename it to "GP1.bin" or "GP2.bin" respectively and it should work fine, make sure you set EmuMC to off or else the games will crash while saving, the irony.

On a different note, testing both Phantasy Star Online games with EmuMC off the games seem to run fine so it seems the issue is indeed related to the bios being enabled, maybe it's best to include an exception for these two games to not support bios? Also Peach castle now runs fine with EmuMC disabled seeing how the bios are disabled in turn, I'm fine if it stays like this, bios screen work when using EmuMC and no bios when disabling EmuMC, nice!

Edit: FIX94 Do you think you can include this code for F-Zero AX?
Code:

I really don't understand why people like to hardcode cheats into Nintendont.

There are literally thousand of cheats out there and it is not like Nintendont don't support cheats.

Pressing 2 while the settings could open a list of hardcoded cheats we can enable or disable? Mainly for the GP2 announcer to start with
