PCSX2 - Widescreen Game Patches
Hey, Can you guys make patches for Sakura Wars: So Long, My Love? Specifically, Disc 2 which has Japanese voice overs. And if preferably, the 2D elements and FMVs, but if it's not doable, just the in game 3D part is fine.

Having a few small issues with the widescreen patch of Tales of the Abyss.

The world map when in the Field is a bit glitchy, for example the player marker is sometimes off the edge of the map, and there are multiple place markers (dots) that are off the map too.

Another problem (again minor), when entering battles the cracked screen effect splits into two seperate screens.

A slightly worrying problem I'm having is when a skit is finished in the Field the screen goes corrupt (like white noise) for a second then goes back to normal (this problem only happens in the Field for some reason, not in towns/cities/dungeons).

Something which I think is probably unrelated to the widescreen patch is that the game stutters a bit when moving the camera and walking around in the Field, but my guess is that isn't something that can be avoided (I could be wrong).

Screenshots of first 2 problems attached, would be nice if someone could tell me if this is only a problem I'm having or if it happens to everyone.

Are you using this patch?

Maybe try deleting the lines I highlighted in red and orange.

Your patch is very NICE. But it doesn't work in ver 2.0



PS :

Would you make font fix of the Rule of rose and Fatal Frame (Zero) when you have time?
