==========================

Anyway, this game was ugly as hell because of all the models swapping at very close distance, so I made something about it while also making 60fps patch for increased responsiveness and synchronize save as the game didn't wanted to save for me otherwise for some reason.

Activate same way as cheats, detailed instructions/descriptions included in code comments, just a note, both 60fps and LOD hacks require powerfull pc to run, do not use it if you already have performance problems. LOD hack can cause instability even through I tried to tweak it to avoid this at least for the first city, if that happens only fix is to reload the game from normal save, so do not play with disabled autosaves using that hack:].

Small comparism of LOD hack:
ON:


OFF:


Edit: Added PS3 Connectivity hack. After activating it, you can use ps3 connection in the upgrade menu for some cool stuff.
Also LOD hack seems to be pretty stable, I played for quite a while without a crash, I guess as long as the max distance is smaller than 100.0f it's ok with the game. Makes the game much better since the original is just dreadfull with stuff loading completely different model just few steps in front of character.:3
Another Edit: removed warning from LOD hack, I just finished whole game with it, so I guess that's as stable as it get's.

This does seem to be the definitive way to play, i only found your post half way through the game, while looking for ways to unlock ps3 exclusives.
I'd also recommend the right analog stick cheat. Really wish ppsspp had some community wiki like Dolphin does, so cool tweaks like this would be visible for all. Doesn't seem to work my us version however.
