rpcs3 Dante's Inferno [BLUS30405] Graphics issues in cutscenes featuring Lucifer

Game has problems with rendering Lucifer, whenever he shows up everyting goes to black. NVIDIA GTX 1070 Looks like this with no additional settings: NoSettings_Lucifer1 BLUS30405_20200123065302_capture.zip

NoSettings_Lucifer2 BLUS30405_20200123065402_capture.zip.001.zip BLUS30405_20200123065402_capture.zip.002.zip (Had to add .zip at the end to upload, remove extention before extracting)

RPCS3.log_NoSettings.zip

After testing each and every setting individually and every possible combination i found that only Force CPU blit and Read Color Buffers can somewhat fix this but not quite.

Force CPU blit only: FCB_Lucifer1 BLUS30405_20200123071306_capture.zip

FCB_Lucifer2 BLUS30405_20200123071430_capture.zip.001.zip BLUS30405_20200123071430_capture.zip.002.zip (Had to add .zip at the end to upload, remove extention before extracting)

RPCS3.log_FCB.zip

Read Color Buffers only: RCB_Lucifer1 BLUS30405_20200123073207_capture.zip

RCB_Lucifer2 BLUS30405_20200123073313_capture.zip.001.zip BLUS30405_20200123073313_capture.zip.002.zip (Had to add .zip at the end to upload, remove extention before extracting)

RPCS3.log_RCB.zip

Copmbination of both Force CPU blit and Read Color Buffers doesn't give you anything different than just FCB: FCB_RCB_Lucifer1 BLUS30405_20200123085223_capture.zip

FCB_RCB_Lucifer2 BLUS30405_20200123085516_capture.zip.001.zip BLUS30405_20200123085516_capture.zip.002.zip (Had to add .zip at the end to upload, remove extention before extracting)

RPCS3.log_FCB_RCB.zip

Also worth mentionning that there should be another character on the screen which doesn't show up at all for me but it does show up for people testing on Linux with AMD hardware Screenshot_from_2020-01-22_22-55-08

~~Also Write Color Buffers setting introduces crashes with differen errors (such as Verification failed (0000000000000000) or Access violation - no RTTI data!) in certain moments (first boss encounter for ex.) and crashes during cutscenes which are random but related to WCB turned on. When WCB is turned off crashes won't occur.~~

~~Both OpenGL and Vulkan are affected by this.~~

Fixed with #7353

RPCS3.log_WCB_DeathCrash.zip

Easily reproducable by turning on WCB, starting game and getting to first boss fight.

I think this just requires WCB to be enabled. FCB just breaks rendering if WCB (and sometimes WDB) setting is not enabled. Is the WCB crash still happening?

No, WCB crash doesn't happen anymore. It was fixed with #7353 as i mentioned. But WCB (or WDB, or FCB) doesn't solve anything, everything is still black and/or transparent when RCB is turned on.

Mar 01 '20 14:03 SmitheeGuy

I can confirm that as well. WCB or other options doesn't fix the cutscene issues.

Mar 01 '20 21:03 web1018

Exactly the same issues here :( BLES00713

Mar 23 '20 17:03 StreamWhenGuy

The issues still present on newest version of RPCS3 :(

Apr 06 '20 10:04 ndvn101092

it's only in this cutscene ??

Aug 24 '20 00:08 J7sn

it's only in this cutscene ??

IIRC there's a couple of more cutscenes further in the game that have the issue.

Aug 24 '20 05:08 StreamWhenGuy

@SmitheeGuy any update?

Feb 05 '21 18:02 digitaldude555

I would also like an update on this.

Feb 10 '21 00:02 dylonthomas

Same issues BLES00713 on newest version of RPCS3 NVIDIA GTX 1070

May 10 '21 03:05 sergus2008

Still not fixed huh. I guess we'll just have to wait.

Jun 11 '21 16:06 joshuacode751

Well, the kd-11 build doesn't fix the cutscenes with beatrice and Lucifer and Virgil still has the missing blue highlight. At least the sky box are no longer black

Sep 06 '21 18:09 Jonathan44062

Still an issue on the US release and newest dev version of RPCS3.

Sep 25 '21 03:09 Cyiatic

still having the same problem

Jan 29 '22 14:01 ghost

Needs a retest. The glow on lucifer was fixed at like the end of 2022, not sure about this issue tho.

Jun 17 '23 08:06 Asinin3

Still an issue

Read Color Buffers

No RSX Buffers

Using RCB fixes the black boxes particles.

P.S: The glow it was for Virgil

Jun 17 '23 09:06 Jonathan44062

Retest after #14907 might be fixed

Jan 05 '24 21:01 Triticum0

RPCS3.log.gz Using all RSX buffers and RSX detiling Still not fixed

Will this ever be fixed? Still an issue up until today, March 10th 2024

Mar 10 '24 19:03 evillurker

Anyone knows if there has been any changes to this recently?

Jun 20 '24 14:06 GoodWall533

@CaosRed If this is still open, it means that the problem is still not fixed, besides, why use Write Depth Buffers? See my post, using Read Color Buffers partially fixes the black screens, but with Luficer and Beatrice it's something else

Aug 07 '24 03:08 Jonathan44062

@Jonathan44062 gracias por la respuesta, coloque la actualizacion segun lo que veo, ahora bien es cierto que mejoro el tema de pantalla negra, y con la ultima actualizacion el desface en los videos tambien mejoro bastante, ahora se ve la cilueta de Lucifer y Beatrice, creo que estan a punto de encontrar la solucion.
