Jesus Christ do you really play like that? Doesn't it bother you that it's very clearly stretched horizontally? I swear I am not an autist that's constantly furious at the way people play their games, I'm just saying that this would really bother me and I would rather play with black bars on either side or if that bothers you get a bezel pack. Part of me thinks this is bait.

How ironic that you say this when it's the OP that is stretching the shit out of the game so it fits on his widescreen. I am the one advocating to play it in the original resolution of 4:3. It seems you're a low IQ midwit. Sad, many such cases.

Why are you on RetroArch? Get a normal emulator like SNES9x and stop listening to a bunch of Linux-obsessed autists in their 30s who spend more time tweaking shaders than they do actually playing video games.

>disable layers
When you say "layers" I'm assuming you mean shaders right? Like the overlays that can soften the pixels or simulate a crt effect? The truth is that OP's picture is pixel perfect, it's just really small 256x224 so if you open it in your web browser then it gets smoothed.

>>12702590
OP, Retroarch is a fantastic piece of software but it absolutely is not intuitive at all. It doesn't deserve all the hate it gets but the UI is terrible and it deserves all the hate in the world. I truly want to help you have a good experience. Please do this OP:

Go to your Retroarch menu and go to "Settings". Then go to "User Interface". Then go to "Menu". In here there will be 4 options. You should try all of them and pick the one you like best, but I think the best one is by far the XMB.

Now to save your settings. First go back to the Main Menu and go to "Settings". Then go to "Video", then go to "Scaling". You will see "Integer Scale" probably turned off. If you turn this on, all of your problems should be solved, HOWEVER you will probably end up with black bars on the sides and on top and bottom, which I think is ugly.

Instead leave "Integer Scale" off and make sure that the "Aspect Ratio" is set to "Core Provided". Now go back all the way to the Main Menu and find "Configuration File". Now select "Save Current Configuration". This should make it so all your games are the perfect resolution, no matter what console you play.

If all this doesn't work for some reason, the final piece of advice I have is to change the "Aspect Ratio" to 4:3, instead of "Core Provided". Then "Save Current Configuration". This way every game will be 4:3 but you might have to change it when you play games that were intended for 16:9. I don't see why "Core Provided" shouldn't work.

Only have rgui.

Its actually on. I always have to turn off "keep aspect ratio" so the menu screen isn't stretched.

>Instead leave "Integer Scale" off and make sure that the "Aspect Ratio" is set to "Core Provided". Now go back all the way to the Main Menu and find "Configuration File". Now select "Save Current Configuration". This should make it so all your games are the perfect resolution, no matter what console you play.
Doesn't work. All I did gets reset next time I run the game.
Don't worry is okay, I just have to it whenever I close the game. And it really only happens with a few games. Rudra was a little harder to get accustomed since the screen always tried to change display whenever text came up but luckily this one is fine.

>Retroarch is a fantastic piece of software
>It doesn't deserve all the hate it gets
No, it really deserves more hate. Everyone who gives a fuck about emulation development and improvements should hate RA for the damage it has done and continues to do, by design.
The issue is the main thing RA advertises, their 'cores'. An RA core is just an emulator packaged into a format RA can deal with as a front end. By design, this is a frozen snapshot of an emulator at a specific revision. Since many if not most of these cores are behind the mainstream emulators they are forked from, that means you have a lot of people using out of date emulators.
Which wouldn't be an issue if RA-using retards only complained to the RA team about the problems they are having. But since the people who use RA are functionally retarded, they go crying to the devs of the emulators the cores are forked from, who have NOTHING to do with the cores. So emulator dev time is wasted telling retards "No, that bug has already been fixed, update your shit. No, we don't deal with the RA core, GO ASK THE RA PEOPLE ABOUT IT." instead of making improvements to emulation. And the RA devs have repeatedly tried to pressure emu devs into wasting time keeping RA's cores up to date in addition to working on the actual emulator, because fuck progress when we want our shit up to date but don't want to put in the effort.
That doesn't even count all the fucked up shit the lead dev has done to the people actually working on emulators. RA doesn't get enough hate.

Angela is a good choice for Duran because they have a wholesome ending together. When I played I was tempted to pick Riesz but I couldn't pass a free loli...

more like many of these emulators haven't received official updates in ages. everything is a nightly update, while the main update gets shadowrealmed.
>>
>>12702843
OP this is my last idea, if it doesn't work then idk but try this please: make all the changes you want to and at the end go to Main Menu > Configuration File > Save Current Configuration. Then I think you need to exit the emulator from the "Quit" option from the Main Menu. I remember there being some options about saving upon quitting or something, so if you're just turning off hardware or forcibly ending the running program then it might not save. So after doing Save Current Configuration hit the Quit option. If this fails then I give up. Come back and post results.
>>

I don't remember making this OP
>>
>>12702843
>>12703916
OP I forgot to mention there's also an option under Settings > Configuration> Save Configuration on Quit. This should be on by default but just make sure this is on. If this is on, and you exit the program using the "Quit" on the Main Menu, then all your changes should be saved. If all this fails, I absolutely give up. It must be that your handheld is cursed.

Didn't work. Its using Garlic OS so maybe thats why. But other changes I do like controls do save.
Again it's fine not a big deal so long as it's playable.

>>12703072
How does the game work without her anyways? Seems like she is pretty important since she learns skills from the spitits. Also don't tell me the loli clown is a healer and by not choosing her I have to rely on healing items. Also cool they end up together. Kind of had the suspicion because how tsundere they are from each other and from opposing nations (Even if Angela also hates the wizard).

Jesus Christ these are honestly uglier than the stretch, they are so busy and distracting like damn do people really get that bothered by black bars?

>>12702542
Change the global options to always use the "core provided" aspect ratio (Video -> Scaling -> Aspect ratio: Core provided). Save the config munally. There's also an option to enable saving the config on quit.
You can also change the aspect ratio for the core or the game itself and save it as an override, so that it takes precedence over the global config. Yeah, RetroArch can be a bitch to set up at first.

You're an idiot. Thats just the first Trials of Mana overlay that I found, it doesn't have to be that one. It doesn't even have to be specific to a game, it could be just like red bricks or something. Some people really hate those black bars.

Save Configuration on Quit is turned off. Bro turn it on please.

Goes back off whenever I close the game.

>>12711598
Ok ok ok. Turn it on again, and then go:

Main Menu > Configuration File > Save Current Configuration.

Now if you turn off the game and turn it back on it SHOULD now be turned on. Dear God if this doesn't work its because the previous owner of that handheld is literally haunting it from beyond the grave.

>>12712929
You turned on "save configuration on quit" and then you did "save current configuration"? And then you exit the program using the "quit" from the main menu? And it still doesn't work? No way man you gotta be doing something wrong. I had a hard time changing a setting on retroarch recently but if you do the following 3 steps it should work:

Save configuration on quit > ON
Select Save current configuration
Exit using QUIT from main menu.
Quit playing and do this shit.

After you turn it back on, check the "save configuration on quit" option. It should be on now. Please dear God post proof.

Yeah I do that.
I am using Garlic so maybe thats the issue.
Anyway I made my peace with it so don't worry.
Will send you a video teying that later.

Right now I want to know if playing as Angela the only way to cast magic? I don't see any option for her to cast in the AI menu. Also is the AI kinda fucked? I have them attack nearest/untargeted enemies and when I select Angela to cast magic the other characters get near my her instead of fighting.
Also fighting the ninja bros made me realize I hate how you can't access items for a while until the enemy animation plays. Like the enemy attack starts but it takes like a second for the animation to play so I am mashing the item button like crazy but it does nothing.

OP I don't know much about Trials of Mana but I wish I could give you advice. I just want to help you because I think you're a real person that wants to enjoy retro games and I want you to have a good experience here even though often there are some real mean assholes on this site.

I found a thread on Reddit that I think might help:

reddit.com/r/RetroArch/comments/1c5sxbj/how_to_set_aspect_ratio_globally_for_all/

If you want to give up trying to fix it, I completely understand and I don't want you to feel like I'm annoying you with all these suggestions, but try it again lol but this time DO NOT load the game first. Before you start the game, just change the settings you want and then save configuration and quit from the Main Menu.

So just go to the quick menu and do "close content" and then that should get you into a state where there is no game and no core running. Then change the aspect ratio then save configuration then quit. If this doesn't work, I will eat my own dick on national television.

Finally was able to class change after getting out of the volcano Island.
I hated it. Very long, missed the village so I reached the part I wasn't meant to yet facing the strongest enemies yet and when I found my way, I was dealing with a long ass dungeon.
But anyways I went with the team above but wanted to check the other classes.
Its cool that they change their sprite. A shame Lieze class sprite wasn't as good as the one I actually chose but my MC and Angela selected classes looks great. Particularly Angelica who is basically showing her ass.

>>12713238
Hmm I accessed the main retroarch menu (Not loading any games) and the pptions you told me to set up were already on. So guess doesn't work.
