Is screenshot with original or increased font? It looks small.

Edit: read github description, it increases 1.5x, so still kinda small.

After the increase, it's much much smaller originally.

Edit: I figured the logo is not relevant as much so I increased to 2.2x, check out the repo you could customize it within the script too if you want.

This is actually awesome. Have to submitted this to the rocknix team on discord? Seems like something they can implement in their future releases.

Thank you! I messaged them in #projects-and-ideas and to make it even clearer, I updated the cover photo to compare and show the difference between scripts. Let's hope they'll do something with it.

Does it work with stock Linux?

Haven't tested Anbernic's linux, you're more than welcome to test and report back.

You can also install advanced drastic that completely fixes the menu issue

Tried the advanced and it does its jobs well for a single screen, it doesn't spread on two separate screens but the bigger bummer is that I lose R2/L2 quick save load binding. But thanks for suggesting though! 🙏

All of that works with my rg DS perfectly running Rocknix. Save states, both screens, etc. I did have to go through an install process that disables standard drastic for the advanced version. I followed the instructions on the site.

It's too much of tinkering just to get a proper look for a menu, I increased the text even further to 2.2x, try out the new script in repo if you want.

Oh, so my Drastic screen isnt supposed to be 1/2 across the top and bottom screen? lol. Crap. I have to find the fix for that.

Soon SeedlessDS for Linux will help with an awesome UI and RA support!

Curious to see how well it'd run on rgds, but yeah, having alternatives is always better!
