Title: [FF7] how can I remove "black bar" at bottom of screen?
Post by: Fendera on 2014-10-01 16:14:42

Hey Guys

Im sure the question is somewhere around here but I wonder if I can remove the black bar on the bottom of my screen when I play FF7 with HD Mods? The Game is perfect now except the black bar  :( it is only in the fields.

thx for help!

You can't. This is a common request, but not something anyone's figured out yet.

It can be removed in battle, does not exist on world map, but cannot be removed from field (without significant changes which are a waste of time vs the benefits).  On PSX the black area is distributed on both top and bottom.

I am willing to bet Aali could shift the screen to the centre so it looks more natural, but removing it entirely is simply too much hassle.

It would be better if he could add a fake fullscreen (borderless window) and a dynamic resolution. It is possible to make a window bigger as your monitor supports it, so if you make the window bigger in the y axis you could cut off the black bar. But this will also cut off screen when the game swaps into the full 3D mode and this could be solved with a change of the resolution of the window.

Geat news, just like FFVIII; how complex and how much work would it take ?

When he could shift the screen to the centre it would be nice! But I get used to it
