Mmm lots of issues with this game :). Did you test a couple of Hacks, rounding and clamping modes?

I tested each of the GSdx hacks individually but without rebooting the whole emulator, I tested each clamping rounding mode after rebooting the emulator (because I got an issue that would appear because of a rounding mode but would stick even if I changed it later and would only be fixed if I rebooted the emulator with the correct rounding mode) and I tested every gamefix in the manual gamefix tab except preload TLB hack because that one just crashes.

could you please tell me which clamping/rounding options you used

This issue occurs regardless of those settings.

i see thank you would have been easier if the pcsx2 page for the game just said no known workaround

The GS dump is no good, as the texture is broken earlier on, as is the case with this damn game.

If software does not fix it, why is the GS label still intact? This has to be a core issue.

ghost avatar Dec 25 '23 16:12 ghost

It's not, the game downloads data from the GS and reuploads it, and it's likely that the download got corrupted/bad data, so it reuploaded garbage. It is still a GS problem.

If you load in to the game in software, it will likely be fine.

Still an issue as of v1.7.5341 checked by me.

If you load in to the game in software, it will likely be fine.

  • I started this mission on Software renderer and playthrough until that level without changing renderer, but it occured.

Berylskid avatar Dec 26 '23 07:12 Berylskid

So it did occur in software mode? damn... okay, thanks.
