Tested a little. Works fine so far.

We can fix the bloom effect rather than disable it. Doesn't seem to affect shadows or any other graphical effects.

Sorry to dig up old skeletons:)
Any success with that old crash bug in Dynasty Warriors 3 XL when we trying to load Battle of Wan Castle? Always bugged me that it prevents progress of Musou campaign.
Maybe FPU/COP accuracy range needed?

EDIT: MK Armageddon still has SPS graphic glitches with small particles both in Konquest and when in a fight (falling leaves, sparks from metal or lava, etc.)

EDIT2: Does anyone know why --gs-force-bilinear=1 always crashes emus? Trying to fix pixelated ui text in Snowblind games. Seems forcing bilinear filtering fixed it in PCSX2.

Try this:

Dynasty Warriors 3 - SLUS-20277

Emu: Jakv2

Code: 
apiRequest(0.1)

local eeObj = getEEObject()
local emuObj = getEmuObject()

local patcher = function()

eeObj.WriteMem32(0x0013AC30, 0x03E00008)
end
emuObj.AddVsyncHook(patcher)
 
Found the fix to Spyro A New Beginning NTSC thanks to an old PCSX2 thread. Appearantly, it's the same as the PAL version.. or it's the PAL version that is wrong. Anyhow, this worked for NTSC, I have tested:

LUA:
apiRequest(0.4)

-- The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning

local eeObj = getEEObject()
local emuObj = getEmuObject()

eeInsnReplace(0x001849B8, 0x44840800, 0x00000000) -- Fixes HUD and menu display.

-- Graphic improvement: removes corrupted lines on screen with uprender enabled

emuObj.SetGsTitleFix( "forceSimpleFetch", "reserved", { texMode=1 } ) --texMode=1 ?
emuObj.SetGsTitleFix( "forceSimpleFetch", "reserved", { texMode=2 } ) --texMode=2 is BILINEAR


Emu used: KOF98. This emu seems to work great for Eternal Night too. No other bugs or performance issues detected.
 
@Drobovik2 Try this

Dynasty Warriors 3 - SLUS-20277

Emu: Jakv2

Code: 
apiRequest(0.1)

local eeObj = getEEObject()
local emuObj = getEmuObject()

local patcher = function()

eeObj.WriteMem32(0x0013B5E0, 0x0)
eeObj.WriteMem32(0x0013B5E4, 0x0)
end
emuObj.AddVsyncHook(patcher)
 
@Scalerize
Just ran a quick test with new code. Good news, now seems the Wan Castle stage is playable and not crashing upon pressing Select+Start to go back to menu. Still need to play throu the stage to finish it normally or test quit saving. But unfortunately falling-through-the-map is still present. If you jump at certain places character is just falling through the floor then stops underground so to speak and teleports back to the surface.:)
Any clue why this falling thru map is connected to the patch?

Update: No more crashing during Wan Castle stage either upon loading the stage, exiting and saving, then loading back into the stage. Stage can be finished normally, the only thing is still present is falling thru floors.

The patch simply skips jumping to the function causing the crash. It has to be related in some way to the FPU to be causing geometrical inaccuracies such as the one you mentioned. Idk what else may be causing this, but I might, however, be able to pull something off once I get my hands on it again.

Well, if u use Jabu tool for example, in setting we have checkbox with "Use Compression", you can remove it!
Thats why after convert you have smaller size of game then before!

@Vika23 so I unchecked "Use Compression" option, So with my first try I used Jak V2 as the emu and opened the game then I see the playstation 2 logo intro then endless black screen but with fps counter is on I see that the game is still running not frozen but as I said Black Screen but I noticed something when I was going to delete it and its save file to try the other emu I saw in the save game menu a corrupted data, But for Rogue V1 when I try to open the game just crashes, I think Jak V2 can still run the game but I think I'm missing something.

Well, thats mean game need other emu! Just need pick right one, or find commands on pcsx2 forums! Sometime we have luck and fix black screen just with picking right emu, sometime need do more work!

Wacky Races Starring Dastardly & Muttley (SLES-50183)

CLI:
--gs-kernel-cl-up="up2x2skipinterp"
--vu0-di-bits=0
--vu1-di-bits=0
--vu1-mpg-cycles=400

Siren v1 emu used.

Skipinterp fixes the vertical semi-visible black lines. Previously with JakX, this game still had stutters, the vu-di commands simply turned them into micro stutters so tracks like Fish N Ships or Terminal Termoil were still pretty bad when you were next to the other racers, however Siren v1 has almost eliminated them entirely, I normally only get 1 or 0 micro stutters per race even when I'm next to the other racers. I also recommend turning 60Hz mode on in the options menu.

And for Monsters Inc. - Scare Island (SCES-50595), the Parappa v1 is better than KOF98, there was severe lag in the boss challenges with the latter and Parappa emu fixed it. It is perfect now.

EDIT - one more:
Alpine Racer 3 (SCES-50887)
CLI:
--vu1-no-clamping=0
--vu0-no-clamping=0
--vu-custom-min-max=0

Emu used: Jak v2

Fixes some rendering/flickering issues behind your snowborder. I think vu-custom isn't really necessary but the game works fine with it either way. VU clamping should suffice.
