Widescreen Development Topic
This thread was created because of a dislike for 4:3 being stretched to 16:9.
This is where all widescreen hack development should be, where you can find a widescreen archive, and where widescreen requests can be made.
What about Dolphin's built-in widescreen hack?
Dolphin's built in widescreen hack usually works, but for many games, there are often issues related to disappearing objects and geometry on the left and right side of the screen. This is known as "culling" and they require "render fixes". For an example of this, go to 5:00 of this video.
