[Feature Request]: Gameindex: Forced Software Renderer #6276

Open seta-san opened 2 years ago

seta-san commented 2 years ago

Description

some games are utterly broken in hardware mode. allow the gameindex to force the game to software

Reason

less configuring for end user

Examples

singstar: the entire series is broken in hardware mode. and the game will never suffer in software mode.

Mrlinkwii commented 2 years ago

auto Renderer already exists in the code , no need for a gamedb flag

Adding to what link said, I'm not sure because there's alot of variables to account for in terms of HW configurations. One renderer may not work for another user's setup

Guys, please stop misunderstanding the request :P

However I will change the title to reflect properly.

seta-san commented 2 years ago

not in all cases. maybe the option should just be to force the game to software or hardware.. what ever the hardware default is.

refractionpcsx2 commented 2 years ago

forcing to hardware is stupid, some people might have crap hardware incapable of running hardware mode at a reasonable speed, a switch to force software is fine though.

There are per game settings now. Why would renderer be in the gameindex?

refractionpcsx2 commented 2 years ago

UX I guess. Some games just don't work properly in HW mode.
