Other aspect ratio modes?

[knurek]

Well, I'm writing this mainly cause of Dragon Warrior 7. pSX seems to be the best emu for the game (overall the smoothest feeling), but it does stretch the image to full screen.

I guess this is something real PSX did too, but I've grown accustomed to 'Scale to windows size, keep aspect ratio' mode from Pete's plugin. Which makes the screen have borders on the sides, but keeps the aspect ratio (ie, the people don't look like squashed frogs, O letter doesn't look like a circle, etc).

Any chance of adding something like that? I can provide comparative screenshots if you're interested.

Also I did try fiddling with my monitor settings to emulate the non-stretched mode, but all I can get is something inbetween - it simply doesn't support squashing the screen that much.

This is something that has been requested before, and hopefully pSX Author decides to put some options in for display size adjustment, including aspect ratio settings. For now, about the best you can do is use Ultima's pSX Frontend to manually set a specific size in windowed mode... something that will take up most all of your display, though of course I too prefer using fullscreen when playing a game.

Actually this does help a bit, thanks.
Other than the fact that pressing speed up key makes the pSX window return do default resolution, and the general slowness of windowed mode (it does loose frame here and there, compared to fullscreen), I guess that's as good as it will get for now.

OK. But please....dont forget an option to leave pSX the way it is right now. I love it.

Will this fix square games as well? Thats the one gripe I have about this emulator. If that is fixed than I will be a happy little camper

Rectangular ones too... Sorry! Couldn't resist that!
