Help with Mortal Kombat Deception

Hi all,

Is there any workaround to screen issue in MK Deception? It looks like the image below.

I am running it in 4x native, 16:9. I have downloaded the widescreen fix and put it in cheats folder and turned on enable cheats and enable widescreen fixes. This is what it says in my console:

Code:

However it still looks like the image above. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Edit: It displays fine in software mode, but the quality is obviously nowhere near as good

Try using an custom resolution and check whether the problem persists.

That did the trick!
Thanks alot!

Yeah, this game had some problems with the native scaling resolutions. For unknown reasons, having a custom internal resolution fixes it.

Would the problem persist if you set the resolution to, say three times the native resolution (1920x1344)? I don't mean auto-native scaling, I mean actually setting the custom res to that.

The native resolution for the games are not always same , they are different for most games. Custom resolution just sets the desired resolution without taking the native resolution into consideration.

Maybe the scaling for the native resolution is not proper in this game. I'm not sure about the solution to your question, you should probably test it out

Nyeh, you're probably right. Not many games ran at 640x448, did they?
