PCSX2 - Widescreen Game Patches

[Devina]

Also I've noticed a few patches for games that already have native widescreen, Like Soul Caliber III. Why is that?

Maybe if you read the readme in the archive, you'd know.

Well, I'm sorry for assuming that after "Spanish" it was all just in other languages, Like most readmes. Maybe you should group the English information with one all together, and then add other languages after it. Then maybe i would know.

And if it was your intent to sound rude, You did so very well.

I'm not mad or anything (it's difficult to detect people's emotions through written language on the internet), just a little frustrated.
Your question was answered anyway, so that's that.

@devina40:
1
Suggest you add "Network Access Disc & Hardware - Online Arena"
to the list of "Games requiring 16:9 set in BIOS".
2
Suggest you rename "Games requiring 16:9 set in BIOS"
into "Games requiring 16:9 set in BIOS to enable build-in 16:9".
3
It has appeared to me that setting the screen configuration in the BIOS-menu
to "Full" won't do for "Games requiring 16:9 set in BIOS"; it has to be "16:9".
Suggest you add this info.

Cheerio.

Here's a patch for 007: From Russia with Love (SLUS_212.82)

Note that PCSX2 cannot currently get past the intro in this game - I used a downloaded save game to get in-game.

Also - the PNACH for this doesn't 100% translate to an ELF patch, two extra hacks (commented out but included) can be used in conjunction with PNACH Converter to make a working ELF hack.

Here's the intro running on a PS2

Gauntlet: Dark Legacy SLUS_212.82

Widescreen + Render Fix + FMV Fix + Font Fix

The render fix properly adjusts the object clipping to the new widescreen viewport but I wasn't able to figure out how to adjust the clipping viewport so I ended up just disabling it - in some limited testing I did it didn't seem to reduce the frame rate. Update: Frame rate is perfect all the way through the first level on a real PS2 so this should be fine.
