PCSX2 - Widescreen Game Patches

[stranno]

Free Mode or Musou Mode?

I've tried FM on real hardware and it works propertly with patch applied.

It was Musou mode in Sun Jian's story mode. I guess it does not occur in Free mode because it's missing the cutscene at the start of the battle.

If you have the savestate previous to this mission i can try. Full savestate doesnt allow to choose missions on MM, only on FM.

Hm, such as?

Like black lines on Final Fantasy X-2, AA crashes on Rumble Fish, 4:3 vids on Suikoden V, or startup problems like Rumble Roses, etc.

Yes I double checked that the patch was the issue, I've been testing stuff for years so usually I know what I'm talking about

So how long we must wait the save file?

Dynasty Warriors 5 NTSC WS patch causes a crash at Battle of Bai Di Caste - Wu forces, right after you press start battle
Suggesting it gets removed until it gets resolved

I remember the PAL version also crashed sometimes when watching the cut-scenes before the battle starts. I found out reducing the value for the renderfix fixed that issue.

So maybe it's worth a try to do the same for the ntsc version.

Could you try this code for the ntsc version :

Code:

gametitle=Dynasty Warriors 5 (SLUS-21153)
comment=Widescreen hack by nemesis2000 (pnach by nemesis2000 )
patch=1,EE,00146c48,word,3c0243d6
patch=1,EE,00181cec,word,3c023f15

Great job with Tales of Destiny 2, I couldn't find a 2D scene fix either sadly, but I'll put it in the archive for now.

Like black lines on Final Fantasy X-2, AA crashes on Rumble Fish, 4:3 vids on Suikoden V, or startup problems like Rumble Roses, etc.

It may be possible to fix problems like those through .pnach files, but a lot of things also need to be fixed in PCSX2's hardware mode which could still use some improvement.

Nope didn't work. Finally got around beating 7 stages with Sun Jian to reach that one. Attaching the memcard.
