Replace the white 'background' with black

Issue:
Is there any possible way to make the “background” of citra Black instead of white? I’ve managed to get citra fullscreen as well as working with a controller, all that is left is that unmatching white background of the emulator. 3rd Party or editing in files as long as it works i’m happy to hear about it.

Make background black instead of white in macOS

Open: (user folder)/AppData/Roaming/Citra/config/qt-config.ini

Go to [Renderer] and set bg_red, bg_blue, bg_green to 0.

It should be like this now:

P.S. PSMD is kinda unplayable right now, because it crashes in the space scene.

By smaller you meant your screen is 4:3 aspect ratio. If you want a more efficient use of screen space and maintain the aspect ratio, you’ll have to use custom layouts which is hidden away in the qt-config.ini file. It’s not an easy feature for users to use and understand. Which is why it’s a hidden feature.

i know the custom layout settings and also tried them but did’t succeed, so if you can then please give me the settings for that screen. I’ll be greatly thankful to you.
