I have a question regarding the 3DS Capture software

Post by DorDur215 » Tue Oct 18, 2022 10:37 pm

Ok so I plan on buying a new 3ds xl capture card once they are available but I really want to know how scaling of original ds games will work on it.

I'm not really a fan of the blurry upscaling the 3ds uses for ds games so I wanted to know if there is a way to properly scale ds games in original resolution (hold start / select while booting a ds game) in the capture software so it won't have black bars on top/ bottom of the ds screens?

I also wanted to know if the software can do interger scaling in general since I'd like to have the sharpest image possible.

I would really appreciate if someone that owns a current 3ds capture card or maybe even Loopy himself could answer my questions.

Right-click in the main window to open display settings.
Change the display type to DS (1:1).
Then change to point scaling.

Quick Question (since it's kinda relevant) - Will the capture software meant for the N3DSXL board also work with OG 3DS boards?
Thank you for your time!

Hey Loopy!

Thanks for the answer!

Sorry for the late reply I completely forgot I posted this :roll:

Anyway I have another question and that would be how well does this capture card work as a "consolizer"?

Would it be a good experience playing games on my monitor or does it add a lot of input lag?

I have an old capture and can say that if there's any input lag, it's very little.
It may depend on your computer though; on my old pc (10-year-old hardware), it did have some lag. It wasn't that significant, but it was noticeable.
