Preparation
- Make sure Luma's
boot.firmis on the SD root for this to work
Installing
- Download TWPatch and copy
TWPatch.ciato your SD card (GBAtemp thread) - Install
TWPatch.ciausing FBI- You can also use Universal-Updater to install TWPatch instead of the previous two steps
- Return to the home menu and launch TWPatch
- Hold Y + B to open the patch menu and enable
Widescreen patch (384x240 16:10) - (Optional!) For a less pixelated widescreen, also enable
GPU scaling (blurry, no filters) - Press B to exit the patch menu
- Press START to generate a
TwlBg.cxifile with widescreen- If the top screen doesn't indicate that wide patch is enabled, start from step 3 again
- Move
TwlBg.cxifromsd:/luma/sysmodules/tosd:/_nds/TWiLightMenu/TwlBg/(createTwlBgfolder, if it doesn't exist), and rename the file toWidescreen.cxi - Restart your 3DS while holding SELECT to open Luma3DS's configuration
- Enable
external FIRMs and modules, then press START to save and quit - Open TWiLight Menu++ settings, switch to the
Games/Apps settingspage, and setScreen Aspect Ratioto16:10- This can be done per-game as well
You're all done! Enjoy your DS games in widescreen!
NOTES:
- Do not hold START or SELECT when launching TWLMenu++, if you don't want widescreen to look glitched
- Not every game is widescreen compatible. Here is a list of games with widescreen support
- If you're stuck in widescreen mode in all of TWL_FIRM (including the TWLMenu++ GUI) after following this guide and launching a widescreen-compatible game, delete
TwlBg.cxiatsd:/luma/sysmodules/, and uninstall and re-install TWiLight Menu++, and re-follow the above guide - Most widescreen patches will only adjust 3D elements for widescreen, 2D elements (such as menus) will only be stretched
