Yeah, that's a mix of multiple things in one checkbox. But not really a good fix as it can break other things further in games.

[SeruranBlue]

I tried it and now it's fixed.

[SeruranBlue]

if it doesn't break anything maybe we can get ref to add support for it in the gameindex

I gonna test entire games.

I reached ending and i found several issues.

In software renderer with all default settings, if zooming out maximaumly, the game speed slows down. This issue doesn't occur with non-software renderer.

• stage 6: 45FPS (75%)
• stage 5: 50FPS (80%)
• stage 2: 43FPS (70%)

There is a chance that captured image turn into another image. this sometimes occurs when you push F9 (change renderer) or F4 (toggle frame limitter) or tab (Turbo) after captureing the image, regardless of whether renderer or Disable safe features.

there are no other problems.

I tested this last night, and the Sony logo appears if you put the interlacing mode in to Bottom Field First (any type)

Looks like it regressed in #7376 HOWEVER this doesn't appear to be the cause, just the symptom

In hardware mode, for some reason it's only drawing every other line and wiping out the previous ones, so when it comes to drawing, it's picking the wrong lines. Before 7376, it was actually doing this incorrectly, which is why it's now a problem.

So it could be, as you guys pointed out disabling safe features fixes it, it could be a misdetected screen clear. or they are doing it with scanmsk (only draw every other line), which is gross, but some games do it :P

As I suspected, it is using scanmsk, so I've excluded that from our fast clear, since that would be invalid behaviour anyway #7933
