Dreamcast Widescreen Hacks

Could someone help with the codes for 3rd Strike? I can't find the ones mentioned, in the .CDI. i would greatly appreciate it. <3

 

this is codes finded by Esppiral, i'm finded where is located in binary

 

Yes, I know, but why did you use different values for V2 than he posted for V1? V1 and V2 have the same original values, so the widescreen hack for V1 creates a different aspect ratio than the hack for V2.

 

original codes
PSO v1
Dreamcast Widescreen Hacks
PSO v2
Dreamcast Widescreen Hacks

 

Ah, thank you. I wasn't aware that @Esppiral had made a code for V2 already. Maybe he can enlighten me as to why he used different values.

It appears that doing widescreen as a server-side patch doesn't work on PSOGC. The patch was applied successfully, but I guess the perspective function executes only one time, so the patch has no effect unless it's already in place when the game boots. Whether PSODC widescreen would work as a server-side patch is another matter, since it works in a slightly different manner, but there's no way to know at present.

 

Hello,
thank you all for all those great codes, it's really nice to be able to play in fullscreen on HD TV.

I use Xploder and I have some problems with some codes.

Moero! Justice Gakuen JP
02426B74
43700000

The picture is on ultra wide screen mode, there is a code with normal widescreen please ?

Daytona USA 2001 v1.002 (2001)(Sega)(PAL)(M4)[!]
2C1FE270
43700000

The game didn't boot, console freeze on a white screen. Tested both on a Pal and a JP Dreamcast.

Someone know the HEX for Daytona USA 2001 Pal or USA please ?

Some chance to see widescreen codes for Hydro Thunder in the future ? (if it is possible)

 

you use VGA cable?

I posted the fix for Moero! Justice Gakuen JP a while back, love this game too. Looks so good on a widescreen CRT
Here is the 16:9 Codebreaker code
Moero! Justice Gakuen JP
02426B74
43F00000

 

@CuraeL
I've used this Codebreaker code I found that works for
Street Fighter 3rd Strike NTSC U
02E18DA0 3FCCCCCD
02E18DA4 40000000
02E18DA8 BE99999A

You can however see the limits of the 2d background.
Grabbed the code from here https://www.elotrolado.net/hilo_ho-formato-panoramico-en-juegos-de-dreamcast-widescreen_2131113

 

First successful try at finding a widescreen Codebreaker code for
Project Justice NTSC J
027FDC80 43700000

 

I'm trying to find a widescreen code for Gun Spike NTSC J, but I've only managed to find an address that changes the horizontal 2d UI elements. For address 2C0AB640 I'm changing the value of 44200000 to 43F00000.
Are there any other values I can search for to hopefully find an address to change the 3d elements?

Thanks

 

Thanks a lot ! I will try this !

@megavolt85
Yes I am using a Vga on a plasma TV.

 

hm, code work only in game, menu damaged, map shifted to center of screen

 

@demilich
Moero Justice Gakuen works great now with your code, thank you very much !

@megavolt85
Would have loved to use my Pal original version, I burnt an Iso of the USA version but my Xploder seems to not recognize backup games, only originals. I burnt code breaker with boot loader but it didn't recognize the code breaker CD when I swap. I tried both isos found on the IsoZone without success. Thank you for the confirmation.

 

@Sakuragi_Sama
For Codebreaker w/ bootloader you have to wait a few seconds after you swap in the Codebreaker cd to hear the disc read and then press the button for it to load it properly. If you press the button too fast before it gets a chance to read the Codebreaker cd it will not recognize it.

 

I have waited until the console stopped to read the bootloader. Maybe it's not compatible with a japanese Dreamcast ?

 

Dear demilich, I thank you very much for your reply. I really appreciate it. How ever, I do not have codebreaker.. I was wanting to put the codes into the CDI image. I downloaded a HEX editor and opened the CDI, but I cannot find "02E18DA0" or "02 E1 8D A0" anywhere in there, to replace. Is it because it's not HEX binary? I would really appreciate if you or anyone else could help me convert these codes so I can bake them into the CDI.

Oh, and for reference, I don't need widescreen, just the black bars fix. I think I only need the first two codes.

Anyways, thanks for giving me an answer. I really appreciate it.
