I'm not an expert

When I started, my skills was below zero. And I had only two ways "ask someone" or "do it by myself ". And I have choosed second way. Then I opened ps2sdk and read. After there was a lots of trials and errors, before I recieved the first results.

The one good tutorial is the ps2sdk documentation and then trials and errors.

All that I learned is in the ps2sdk documentation with formulas, pictures with detailed descriptions.

P.S. and sorry for bad english

This is the most I could find of it online, and honestly, I have no idea what any of this means, or how to use them to make widescreen patches.
I'm a human, not a supercomputer. If I want to begin something, I need it in Layman's terms.

http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/LaymansTerms

Perhaps make a YouTube video tutorial if you want other people to catch on.
I could even help out, and link to it in the archive's readme like I do for synce's tutorials. Knowledge is power~

Until then, I'll do the most of what I can, in regards to archiving patches and porting them to other regions.

try to google

"Sony Official PS2 SDK"
"pdf00001.pdf ps2"
"pdf00002.pdf ps2"
"pdf00003.pdf ps2"
"pdf00004.pdf ps2"
"pdf00005.pdf ps2"
Alright, I'll check it out later.
If you need any help with anything, let me know. Keep up the good work.
Just ported your values for FFX-2 to both Japanese versions in the next update.

I'm having problems with the Wild Arms 4 [NTSC-U] Widescreen Game Patch.

I'll check it out. I think I got the code from psx-scene.

I think this is the value causing you misery.

Try changing the "00" to "ff" instead in the .pnach, and it should work.
Not sure why it's causing that?

Thanks for the tip! That fixed WA4. ~_^

I had to hex edit GSDX and change the CRC for WA5.
OLD: 2C0D64C1
NEW: 070C64C1

I'm now testing the Widscreen patches for WA3, so far so good...
That's good!
Tomorrow, I'll go about making a .pnach for WA5, and Half-Life PAL.

By the way, I was playing FF12 with the new black bar fix.
So in the beginning of the game, Basch turns to Reks and...

NIGHTMARE FUEL.

But then again, this isn't the only Square Enix game that has characters with impossibly thin waists.

About KH2(J), I always prefer the original voice work, and while the disney voices in japanese are indeed terrible, you don't hear them enough for it to be that annoying(except for Mickey, oh gott)- Can't wait for 2.5 Remix, so I can play final mix with japanese voices. And it's cool for whenever you can, just noticed Symphonia is on the request list, which is another one I'm really looking forward to being widescreen. Biggrin
