A proper fix for this is not happening nor is it even desirable because of the performance impact it would have, the game seems to unintentionally rely on the RPC arguments remaining in cache until sceSifCallRpc. A slightly better patch is possible, this one eats some extra EE cycles and might theoretically make the game emulate at less than full speed (but probably won't in practice).

Summary of changes...
Fixed menus and HUD for Spyro: A New Beginning and Spyro: the Eternal Night.
Fixed missing dialogs and reduced the VRam usage a bit for Tales of Legendia ("8-bit textures" help a bit more with Vram/speed). Should be playable now in hardware mode. Thanks to rama for figuring it could be hackfixed this way and the initial patch :)
Half-screen fixes for Ty the Tasmanian Tiger 2, X-men Origins: Wolverine, Call of Duty: World at War - Final Fronts.
Modified the Star Wars: Force Unleashed hackfix a bit, shouldn't have the see-thru objects anymore.
Also modified the Metal Gear Solid 3 and Gran Turismo 4 hackfixes as they needed different skip values for each region (PAL/NTSC). Thanx to avih for the region code... and the free C/C++ lessons :P
The hackfix for Sly 3 was still showing stripes for 3-D and two-player modes, fixed for NTSC version now and hopefully works for PAL one too.
Couple GameDB updates after the gif rewrite.

it kinda works better if you make the hackfix use the function...
GSdx: Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 2's hackfix works with NTSC version now too.

The Lord of the Rings: the Third Age (Removing fat stripes on screen).
Digimon Rumble Arena 2 (Half screen issue).
Star Wars - The Force Unleashed (Hiding HUD and 3d issues. Not perfect and NTSC-U only, not sure if it works with PAL).
Star Wars Battlefront 1/2 (Huge VRAM usage issue. NTSC-U only, not sure if it works with others).
Black Hawk Down - Team Sabre (Half screen issue and removes the night vision filter which was broken and using a lot of VRAM).
Minimal changes to other CRC hackfixes and GameDB.

Also a few changes for Tekken 5, "City at sunset" stage, hopefully there's nothing else wrong with this game anymore.

Also removed the effect in the burning temple stage which had thin lines over it when using high res.
GameDB: More updates ~_~

These games will not work with newer PCSX2 versions anymore.
Game database: A few updates
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4525 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
This should be mandatory but (most probably) timing issues make this break more games than it fixes.
Notable exception: Mana Khemia 1 (going "off campus"), so I added it to the auto gamefix database (Only NTSC so far, anyone got the PAL CRCs?).

- Added an EE roundmode patch entry for AR Tonelico 2 that fixes a fall through floor bug
- Disabled an exception in the ISO file reader. It now continues working when it runs into incomplete game rips (may need a review).
- Disabled 2 annoying logs :p

Another round of configuration dialog renovations.
Fixes the leftover "Skipdraw" text when hacks are disabled.
Group the options a bit nicer. Group hardware Anti Aliasing with hacks.

Long interrupt delays are always bad, no matter how true it is to actual console behavior.
(Issue with running code in block slices.)
Also removed outdated hacks for Devil May Cry PAL :p

* Add SkipMpeg for Guilty Gear X Accent Core Plus (Issue 761).
* Set SVN EOL props to LF for the GameIndex.dbf file, since that's what PCSX2 uses when it generates and/or modifies the file.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@3297 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
The other games in the database that are using skipMPEG patches need to be tested to see if they still even need them...

If you know a game that still needs you to manually select the gamefix in the gamefix panel, the please comment (or fill out an issue).

So far I've added the tri-ace gamefix to all tri-ace games i know in the database.
The other gamefixes just need to be added to the games in the database (pcsx2 already has the support to load the other gamefixes)
