How to make Psp games Look better? Ark + 138 Menu

Post by cha0tic » Tue Apr 28, 2015 3:35 am

Hey guys just did the ape escape exploit to get ark running and 138 menu, first time ps vita hacker here.
Took me a couple hours to manage to get my birth by sleep iso on my vita ended up using ftp didn't mind the wait. But the game is extremely blocky, is there anyway to fix the graphics? I know if you purchase a psp title off the store you can hold the touch screen and a menu pops up.
Is there something similar for this?

Hi ! Since you're launching your ARK-2 eCFW through à PSP game, you can change the settings of the said PSP game to affect ARK-2 and the game it runs. To do so, just long-press the PS button, as you would do for toggleing the Wi-Fi, in this screen, on the top you have a "settings" button. Here you can toggle Bilinear Filtering and other nice options for the touch screen and the right stick. I suggest you to set thé right stick as L-R, so you can change to view in Birth By Sleep.

Personnaly in ARK-2 I see a noticeable différence when I set the Bilinear Filtering.

P.S. : please forgive the accents, I'm writing on my french phone, it adds accents with auto-correction ^^'

Vita looks blurrier than PSP because of the scaling and size. But OLED screen of Vita looks great, it has a wide color range. Especially blacks look awesome. They look black, not gray like in PSP.

It looks blocky because it is using the PSP's lower resolution on the Vita's slightly larger screen's higher resolution and it has to scale, thus creating the "blockiness". PPSSPP (which is what I assume you were using on your iPad) changes the resolution so it doesn't look as bad - plus it also has some other graphics tweaks which make the game look nicer, which the Vita lacks.
We are such stuff as dreams are made on, and our little life is rounded with a sleep.
