[BCES00173] SOCOM: Confrontation - Rendering Issues

[ItsLaguna]

Quick summary

Game has issues while rendering maps, sometimes structures and models disappear and then reappear after a few seconds. What seems to be shadows are also bugged.

The game requires Precise ZCull to alleviate the vast majority of the rendering issues, if set to Approximate, more than half of the map being played barely renders around the player.

Also a few examples of water and shadows bugging:

I saw a "similar" issue with MGS4 where it needed Accurate xfloat to prevent specific sections in an Act from disappearing at specific angles, but that didn't fix it for this game... in fact, it bugs the color of some textures.

None of the RSX buffers seem to affect this either (I know there's a PR for this stuff but I haven't tried it yet, will do if it's necessary)

Attach a log file

RPCS3.log.gz

Attach capture files for visual issues

I'm not completely sure how RSX Captures work, but I tried to capture the exact frame of some issues, for now there's just one for the water and another of a small part of the map disappearing. If it's not enough I'll try to upload more.
