Splinter Cell Blacklist - Loading screen after last mission statistics.

[r3538987]

Firstly thought its a random bug, but later just out of curiosity tried again, and it's same. When you hit Continue on stats screen, it loads cutscene, but loading overlay stays over. And it's not only during cutscene, later there are credits, and this behavior remains.

Here is save file before last fight on rookie difficulty. https://gofile.io/d/GmjhJW Maybe can help to reproduce.

Can you check that the new skip smi animation option is doing this?

Also test with this build.

Took ASI, added SMI line into INI. Tried with both options 0 and 1, in both cases behavior remains. By the way, DX11.

Config, just in case, but I don't think something was touched there.

[MAIN]
SkipIntro = 1                              // Skips the intro videos

ScreenCullBias = 0.0                       // 0.0 achieves the best draw distance, game default value is 1.0, but it makes distant objects disappear

No idea then.

[r3538987]

Then we wait for additional suggestions. Maybe this happens on my setup only for some reason. Additionally tried with these - it is same.

SkipIntro = 0                              // Skips the intro videos
SkipPressAnyKeyScreen = 0                  // Skips the Press any key screen and checkpoint selection
FullscreenAtStartup = 0

https://steamcommunity.com/app/235600/discussions/0/846963081239623008/?l=schinese&ctp=4 Based on comments this could be vanilla issue after all.

[ThirteenAG]

Looks like framerate related bug indeed.

[r3538987]

With locked 60 in Borderless Fullscreen mode, still happens. At least good to know this is not due to FusionMod. Shall I close issue?

[ThirteenAG]

Yeah, I don't think there's anything I can do. Maybe it's suppose to work with 30fps, who knows.

[r3538987]

Haha, actually it works.

When played with high framerate, during stats there is one second 30fps dip, maybe this also affects upcoming scene.

For some persons DX9 worked better, but I kept my settings same, DX11, Ultra, FXAA, plus Nvidia overlay remains, MSI Afterburner too.

Framerate was locked via Nvidia Control Panel.
