It's a good example but it's also important to note that the further you get from the camera the less effective resolution there is for a given polygon and the problem really magnifies.
For instance if a characters face is close to the screen, they may have 100x100 effective pixel snap points and it really doesn't manifest at all. But if they are far, they might have 5x5 for the same amount of polys and it becomes a scrambled mess.
At normal PSX res you don't notice it because at that distance so few real pixels would represent the face that it doesn't matter. But in HD it becomes clear as day.

Well it's because the sampling is linear, there's no z-buffer to know how many samples it must take depending on depth, let alone that even if there was z-buffer, it's next to zero of use without floating point.
I believe this can get aleviated fully with not much of a big cost in performance but I have no idea how framebuffer-specific effects could grab a buffer from the higher quality raw samples. Things like battle transition effects in JRPGs and FMV backgrounds (see FFVIII) could break.
I hope somebody could do a Jade Cocoon patch. It's one of those games that even though it has pre-rendered backgrounds using the GTE hack reveals that there's more to the sides on most stuff. I tried to do one but it's as stubborn as Crash/Spyro series.
Is there a way to change a regular (not widescreen) code from PAL to NTSC?
What I want to change is this:
204FE990 41820000
It came from Samurai Warriors 2 XL PAL and I want to convert it to SW2XL NTSC.
Hi all. I have just one simple question. Is it possible to convert universal widescreen ability from PCSXR emulator into regular cheat code?
Best regards.

Nope. You would need to have a modified GTE chip to do that work. The hack actually goes as deep as changing how GTE chip on the PS1 works.
Now I'm not sure if something like Swiss on Gamecube (

Thank you very much Esppiral for the patches and for the new value, archive updated.
Best regards.
