This one is made already by Sergx12, (thank you to him), i noticed
that do not matches perfectly, and i changed some values for match.

Also i added a value which fixes graphical glitches in the 2 player mode

And finally i added another patch for the original version of the game,
which have different CRC number and i needed change two adresses.

is there any way to fix the garbage (not sure what to call it?) that appears on the sides of the screen in place of the blank black space that is supposed to be there when retaining Xenosaga Episode I's FMVs at their original aspect ratio?

how it looks:


how it's supposed to look:


it's fixed sometimes if you press F9 twice but I don't want to do that every time since I'll be recording and switching from software to hardware mode requires a restarting of the software I'm using.

the patch I'm using (the one that can be obtained from the archive now) has an optional vert hack but I'm not fond of vert hacks because part of the screen will be chopped off.

is there any way to fix this? thanks!

Archive updated, added alternate CRC for Obscure PAL (no FMV fix, sorry)

[sergx12]

may be we should ask the pcsx2 developers to add a hack which will switch gs window to 4:3 aspect ratio (like f6 hotkey) when fmv plays and when put it back to 16:9?
we already have switch to software when fmv plays,so i do not think that will be very hard. it can be part of enable widescreen cheat option or something else.

@Devina
no luck with fov during Team Blasts in sonic heroes.
render fix will be rather for this game (hud,menus ...) so i better try to find it.
btw
render fix for dolphin's lemony snicket ntsc
042A4EF8 BF400000
042A4EFC 3F400000
and please remove this line 0507C470 3F800000 for The LOTR The Return of the King from your post in dolpin forum.i forgot to do this.it hor fov,but dolphin ws hack do it beter. two other lines work as render fix.

[RoseBuddi]

that sounds perfect, actually. much easier than making FMV hacks. but I'd guess it's easier said than done.

[cybercjt]

i missed it somehow when testing. the only way which i find to fix this issue also disabled rendering outside 4:3 area. i give up for now. sorry. may be later i give it another try

Thanks for the heads up bro, I'll be tuning on that.

^ Nicely done with Nightmare Before Christmas. If you ever feel like improving the NTSC-U version, feel free.
Not a big deal tho.

Also, there already is a Xena patch in the archive. Why re-do it?

Btw, a note to everyone: the Obscure 1 PAL patches are slightly narrower than they should be. If anyone can correct them, feel free.

Thanks about Nightmare Before Christmas, the true is that for all the
extra values for menus or others is so tired encounter them, i spend
a lot of hours various days, anyway is easy for anyone making it for
another region, are just memory values changing 3F800000 for 3F400000
using the program widescreen helper.
The pity is that this game have one value which changes almost all
the entire game in widescreen, but it brokes a lot the menus.

About Xena patch, my fault, i don't see it when i checked the archive, i
removed it, thank you for the advise.

Best regards
