$No Cutscene letterbox:
041bbd50 4e800020

Thank you so much!
I know that I'm asking a lot, but I have a few questions.

1. How does the FOV scaling work, and what part of the code is it?
2. Is there any way to have the game revert to letterboxing and keep the original FOV?
   I took some screenshots to explain.
   Zelda is visible in the cutscene when she should not be. The fade-in and fade-out effects are not full screen.
   3. As a kind of addendum to the fade-to-black problem, I noticed that when you dive underwater, the "overlay" is still 16:9.
   4. OK, I know that this is a stretch, but is there any way to move the HUD to the edges of the screen?
   These last few problems are the only thing keeping this 4:3 hack from being perfect! I only wish that Nintendo had just done it themselves...

Did you mean to reply like that? I only see the quotation of me.

That was supposed to have my answers on it.

Nothing seems to load whatsoever, not even the 50 / 60hz select screen. This is the case under OpenGL and Direct3D11, so I have no idea what might be causing it. The game loads just fine when the code is disabled, so it's not an issue with my dump or anything.

Has anyone here got this working at the moment? I noticed that the PAL code seems to be identical to the NTSC-JP one on the Wiki so not sure if maybe the wrong one has been written then? Would really appreciate if anyone could help with this!!

I'm experiencing the exact same issue on real hardware (but a green screen), so it seems to be a bad code and not a Dolphin issue. Like you I noticed that the Gecko code on the wiki is the same listing as for the Japanese version which seems unlikely. Could this be a copy/paste issue while updating the wiki? Where did that code come from? Would it be this thread? There's a lot of content to sift through...

Can I get a 16:9 code for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Battle Nexus (GNIEA4) NTSC-U, please?

[Raigho]

Any 16:9 widedscreen cheat for Scaler (NTSC-U) [GKUE9G] ? i cannot find it anywhere

[Ivan89el]

Request 21:9 please: Need For Speed Carbon (GameCube/Wii), Hitman 2, Splinter Cells, Resident evil 4 (GameCube/Wii), Batman Begins, The incredible Hulk ultimate destruction

Requesting an updated 21:9 (3440x1440) Gecko/AR code for The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword (US-NTSC). I've been using the following Gecko code from the Gecko codes website:

21:9 Screen Ratio [CosmoCortney]
04576880 3FD00000
E0000000 80008000

It does a good job of keeping the UI unstretched, but there's still noticeable culling on the sides of the screen, and a very strange effect where the reflections on water are offset, and rendered completely incorrectly on the sides of the screen. I've attached a screenshot showing the strange water rendering.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
