This is an archive of the retro game enhancement patches that I have made. These vary from enhanced widescreen (2D / FMV Fixes ) to effect removals (Letterboxes, blur, etc.), and even 60fps patches.

NOTE: This archive contains PCSX2 patches that are currently not in the PCSX2 community archive. Do NOT request to have them added to the archive. They are being posted independently for a reason.

I will be adding a lot more patches in the future as I am currently in the process of dusting off and polishing a large number of my old patches.

If you find any issues with my patches or have any requests, feel free to contact me via discord.

[PS2]

Crash Twinsanity (NTSC-U v1.00 & v.2.00) - Force enable built-in widescreen

Ratchet & Clank (NTSC-U) - Re-worked widescreen patch. My old patch had issues I was not made aware of. Now includes an FMV's fix.

Ratchet & Clank - Going Commando (NTSC-U v1.00 & v2.00) - This patch is a replacement of an old one I worked on that now functions as an actual fix for the built-in widescreen instead of a hacky force.
