Possible to not full-screen on an Android tablet? - yuzutea1 - 11-04-2013 08:36 PM

Is it possible in the options to not have the game fill up the entire screen on an Android tablet? I have a lot of games that have 2D graphics and they just don't look that good stretched out on a 10" tablet. I looked in the settings and 1X resolution still makes it take up the entire screen.

1x-yes, but why not try smth higher (2x-5x), or switch to non-bufferded rendering (resolution resizes automatically)

if u dont want to see the menu screen at the bottom,
try covering the remaining screen with ELECTRICAL TAPE, that should do it.


Big Grin just kidding!

actually he complained about pixelated image

Changing the graphics from to 2x or 5x doesn't really have an effect.

I tried going to non-buffered rendering but it didn't have an effect either. Is there some other setting I need to change?

This is probably because the PSP used widescreen and when you tip your tablet side ways it is normal? >_>

I also have a 10" tablet. Screen looks normal when in NON-Buffered mode. But at best I get 30fps on a slow game -_-

It remains in widescreen orientation even when I rotate the screen. How do I change it so I can play in portrait? That might help the problem.

unfortunately portrait mode is not supported yet, it caused crashes and was removed for the time being, you could try experimenting with anti-aliasing, texture filtering and so on - other than that I don't know
