Sega Model 2 - 16:9 Widescreen Project, No Stretching. Play Model 2 Games in Widescreen with No Pop In. LUA Scripts for Sega Model 2 Emulator. 1.0.0

   (2 reviews)

About This File

 

So my widescreen project is my baby. With a large undertaking I'm going start small with Model 2. I have provided LUA scripts to enable widescreen on the games that it works with.

Playing HOTD in full widescreen is awesome.

The Nebula emulator for Sega Model 2 has the capability to present most of the library in a true 16:9 aspect ratio with NO POP IN. This is achieved with LUA scripts.

I spend hours doing this so you don't have to :) Creating a 'definitive' pack for play..... not display.

I have tested the entire library and found all but 3 games (Pilot Kids, Sky Target, Virtua Soccer) work great with the widescreen hack/script. With no pop in and truly anamorphic. 

I have also applied the NO FLASH SCRIPTS for House of the Dead and Virtua Cop 1 & 2.
NVDATA files for light gun games are also provided so they are accurate.

All light gun games are accurate for mouse support.

'Where do I put these files?' Simples. Place the LUA files in the 'scripts' folder of the Model 2 Emulator. NVDATA files go in the 'NVDATA' folder. 

Below is a list of the games and their associated rom any important info that needed to be documented.

Simply amazing bro!, you are truly on another level with these projects!!

Cheers man. Just about to drop my Dreamcast widescreen pack. I already have an article on it but going to update it and put it in the downloads section. I wish there was like a utility downloads section, rather than having to upload it to game media.

Hey Warped, thanks for these. I dropped the LUA files in, and for some reason none of my games are going widescreen. Any idea what I might need to change?

EDIT: Found a fix is the nVidia control panel. Thanks again for the great scripts!

Followed your video to the letter and cannot get the widescreen to work. It even screwed up my GUN4IR calibrations. Luckily i made a backup
