Lower this setting for GPU intensive games.

Show BIOS animation when starting content. Settings that apply to all cores of this emulator Most modern displays will be running at 60 Hz, so choose that whenever offered. This is known to cause graphical glitches, notably stretched 2D elements like FMVs and geometry popping in.įor games which support both 50 Hz and 60 Hz, they will either ask to set the appropriate mode on boot or have it available in its options menu. Do not worry about progressive scan, 480p, 1080i or 240p mode.įor the remaining games that do not support 16:9 aspect ratio (or their offering is inferior as they use the “crop” method, zooming in the image), setting WIDESCREEN PATCHES in the ADVANCED SYSTEM SETTINGS can force the game to render in widescreen. This includes notes about special conditions about their activation. A comprehensive list can be found at the everybodywiki's list of PS2 games with alternative video modes page. Ĭertain games only offer the ability to set the screen's aspect ratio in their in-game options.

But for the games that do support asking the BIOS for the aspect ratio, the only way to switch their aspect ratios to 16:9 is via the following:īack out with to ensure it saves, and exit the emulator with +, + and +. However, the majority of games actually ignore this setting and offer the option in the game itself, if at all. In addition to this, the PS2's BIOS itself supports setting the aspect ratio to 4:3 or 16:9, and games can read this setting to determine what aspect ratio to display. If a game offers the option to use it though, there's no harm in activating it. By virtue of emulation, all games are rendered as progressive scan anyway. Thus, various PS2 games have varying degrees for supported video modes.įortunately, since we are using a high-level emulator, we don't need to worry about whether a game supports progressive scan or not. And this was also before video signals became standardized, like with HDMI. Not only were displays transforming from the 4:3 aspect ratio to the 16:9 aspect ratio, but they were also going from interlaced to progressive. The PlayStation 2 was in the middle of an awkward phase of TV standards.
