VAG Voices Cutoff

[dbz400]

Just for record only , there are missing VAG voices in FF Type-0 (however , i didn't see it use sceSetVoicePCM or sceAtrac )

(mission narrator voice) 33:34:032 HLE\sceSas.cpp:114 I[HLE]: sceSasSetVoice(08c8b8c0, 2, 0928b878, 20096, 1) 33:34:032 HLE\sceSas.cpp:218 I[HLE]: sceSasSetPitch(08c8b8c0, 2, 1486) 33:34:032 HLE\sceSas.cpp:338 I[HLE]: sasSetSimpleADSR(08c8b8c0, 2, 000000ff, 00005fca) 33:34:032 HLE\sceSas.cpp:201 I[HLE]: sceSasSetVolume(08c8b8c0, 2, 4096, 4096, 4096, 4096) 33:34:032 HLE\sceSas.cpp:179 I[HLE]: sceSasGetPauseFlag(00000000) 33:34:032 HLE\sceSas.cpp:201 I[HLE]: sceSasSetVolume(08c8b8c0, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0) 33:34:032 HLE\sceSas.cpp:233 I[HLE]: sceSasSetKeyOn(08c8b8c0, 2) 33:34:032 HLE\sceSas.cpp:85 I[HLE]: sceSasGetEndFlag(ffffff03) 33:34:032 HLE\sceSas.cpp:85 I[HLE]: sceSasGetEndFlag(ffffff03)

sceSasSetVolume(08c8b8c0, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0)

looks like it turns the volume all the way down for some reason? Maybe GetPauseFlag doesn't return the value it expects?

[dbz400]

throughout the log , sometimes i also seen it tries to set volume to 0 for other voices . however most interesting , all the other voices are present and looks good , only missing narrator voices

Besides, in MotoGP , we may hear the BGM plays around 1-2 seconds then stop playing , i think similar case for RR2 as well .I think may be related to either END or PAUSE flag.

humm , narrow down to here ..... which make the BGM stop playing in MotoGP and RR2

if (curBlock_ == numBlocks_) {
    end_ = true;
}

Hmm, I noticed this happening in Legend of Heroes also, but it's having semaphore problems around the same area...

Those missing voice appears in the @oioitff build and looks like they are atrac3+ voice instead of VAG sound .

[hrydgard]

Ah ok! That means that the games are using the old trick of playing a fast-to-start sample to cover up while starting up the slower Atrac3+ decoder, or something like that.

yep , hope VAG sound cutoff issue in MotoGP in some other games will fix soon :)

Just a note, this issue has finally been fixed thanks to @unknownbrackets VAG fix.

[hrydgard]

Great. Though that means I was wrong above :)
