how to increase resolution while in game to higher resolutions than the GUI allows - ThisIsMyDogKyle - 01-04-2017

so with the new feature that allows you to get screenshots at the internal resolution on certain backends I was going to try and get some absurdly high res screenshots, my only issue is that the game runs at like 1.5 FPS so I figured I would just change the resolution once I got somewhere I wanted a screenshot, only problem is it seems you can only change it to one of the predefined resolutions in the drop down menu once in game and as far as I know the only way to get above these is by changing EFBScale in the games config file, but you can't change that in the middle of running a game, is there any way I can add my own custom resolutions to the drop down menu, or input a command to do this? Thanks!

You can use the Increase IR hotkey. It doesn't have a limit as far as I know.

Do note that after a certain point, too high of an IR will crash your GPU driver. This is not a flaw with Dolphin.

That worked perfectly, managed to get some 30k screenshots. I'll drop them in the screenshot thread later, well, a link to download them at least as I doubt most browsers can display them, thanks a lot guys!

ThisIsMyDogKyle: Juuuust a reminder, do not post a 30k screenshot directly into the forum! Post a thumbnail and then link to it, like the progress report did!

yeah I normally do that, although in this case it's so big I'm just going to link to the mediafire file and people can download the image if they want.
