PS2 Ratchet: Deadlocked widescreen patch issue

[kesterstudios]

Hello guys, I've been trying to use the widescreen cheat for Ratchet Deadlocked (SCUS_974.65) on actual hardware, but I'm running into an issue. This was a problem that was mentioned years ago on the PCSX2 forum website, but it was never addressed.

The game boots up fine and the widescreen setting in the game options is already set to "ON", so the game is detecting the patch and there shouldn't be an issue with the mastercode. However, once I load my game save and enter the hub level, it freezes.

The game seems to freeze because of this line:

// Jump to DWORD patching routine
patch=1,EE,201577B4,extended,08030000

The game will load the hub area with this line deactivated, but the crappy cropped widescreen will be used. I'm guessing there's either something wrong with this line or something wrong with the "Code patching routine DWORD" section of the patch.

Would anyone know how to fix this? I would ask PsxFan107, the creator of the patch, but I'm not able to get in contact with them. This is the patch I'm using:

gametitle=Ratchet - Deadlocked
