Rather than patching the video code directly I set a hardware breakpoint at the GS register(s) to detect any write attempts. On a breakpoint hit, I simply modified the original values that were written to the registers to fit my needs. That's an interesting idea, I'm surprised hw breakpoints work o...

I'm not very familiar with this, but I speculated that the game was getting vsync interrupts for every half-frame in interlaced mode...

The tool patches parameters to sceGsResetGraph() and can adjust the DY value in tGS_DISPLAY2 (some games pass a smaller value when in 480p, causing the ...
