PCSX2 - Widescreen Game Patches

[No.47]

even if it possible it'll take a hell lot of time

Especially since savestates cannot be used when editing the ISO...

Maybe it's still possible to patch the rest of the 2D elements?
Then it would look fine as well. I'll search again, but chance is slim since I already tried without success.

Strange that the Ratchet games use this hardcoding, while the Jak games can be patched as every other PS2 game. I always thought they're using the same engine.

I believe they're modified versions of the same engine.

I found two memory addresses for R&C3 that maybe are a starting point.

This is the internal (vert-) widescreen mode:



Proper hor+ FOV with the patched ISO, but messed up GUI:



By changing the two addresses

Code:

201DC118 //horizontal GUI scaling
201DC11C //vertical GUI scaling

from 1 to 1,333... the HUD (as well as the options menu etc.) is fixed again:



Note: As expected the addresses change after the first level.

^ There isn't a zoom value which doesn't affect the HUD? Hmm.

Insert your game into the DVD drive and use ImgBurn to make an ISO, saving it to your HDD. It's easy, fast and legal.

new patch for Okami (SLUS-20811)

21068223.pnach

fixed drawing issue
fixed some popups

I've tried this code and I still see a black screens when I try to draw. It seems like half the screen has a black background, which causes me to guess where I must draw something.

I am using OPL r790 w/ ps2rd built-in.

Mastercode below was fetched by mastercode finder.

Code:

"Okami /ID SLUS_211.15"

thank you i did that it worked very well but still @4:3 aspect ratio

and @ Devina .. i'm very sorry about what i said earlier

and here a repost for my problem and this time is 100% legal


i downloaded PS2 Widescreen.rar and i did all the settings in PCSX2 emulator

i have 3 original games (NFS Hot Pursuit 2 - Devil May Cry 3 - Midnight Club 3 - DUB Edition Remix ) and i made my iso files legal and fast "thanks for your honesty"
NFS and DMC run in widescreen 16:9 correctly with out any problem .. but the only Midnight Club didn't work at widescreen and it run at 4:3 only whatever i do ..

the game id is SLUS_213.55
i have its patch 60A42FF5.pnach but it doesn't work and pcsx2 can't even see it in its log

i tried different Revisions of pcsx2 and setting and still not work at 16:9 and the emulator still doesn't read the 60A42FF5.pnach patch


this is what in the 60A42FF5.pnach file :

gametitle=Midnight Club 3 - DUB Edition Remix SLUS_213.55
comment=Widescreen Hack
patch=1,EE,00527e14,word,3c013fe3
patch=1,EE,00527e18,word,34218e34

again sorry for what i did before .. and Thank you

^ There isn't a zoom value which doesn't affect the HUD? Hmm.

The problem is that we batch edit a lot of addresses in the ISO image (probably over 1000, didn't count them) and unfortunately some of them are for GUI stuff instead of in-game FOV, since they use they same values in case of R&C 2 and 3...

The game CRC (shown in the console) must match the PNACH name, i.e. 60A42FF5. If it doesn't, the patch is not loaded...

hex code is 100% workable on a real console, so if pnach doesn't work on a real console, try hex edit
