Z buffer mode "Magic blue smoke" - graphics bugs!!! #189

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
When I use Z buffer mode "Magic blue smoke" - I have very many graphics bugs in 
different games. 

Some objects just dissapear or becomes ugly...

I tested it with newest drivers.

Nulldc104r54
Video: GF9800GT
Sistem: WinXPSP3
Vredist2010
DirectX2010

P.s. maybe it just DirectX9 problem???? But... I dont think so...

Could you provide some screen shots?  Trust me, You're not the only one with 
this problem, I'm having it too.  It's just the new Z-buffer mode.  If you 
don't like it, then use the "Fast when available, Best Precition" mode.

I have had the same problem.  I uploaded some screenshots, which you can check 
out here:

They compare the differences between the "Fast when available, Best precition" 
and "Magic blue smoke" z-buffer modes.

P.S. For example, I have this  "Magic blue smoke" problem with: 
- SA2 
- BERSERK 
- PHANTASY STAR ONLINE
- JET GRING RADIO

In other games I seen just a little problems, but they exist anyway...

The new mode is experimental and exposes issues in older nvidia drivers 
apparently.

This problem happens to me also.Other z buffer modes is fine.Been using 
gtx470(258.96 driver)

Just a question btw,I have to play nulldc with vsync to make it look smooth 
60fps.Without vsync,the fps is always 60 but the actual graphics looks like it 
was under 50.I believed that this is a graphic driver issue as it happens with 
dolphin dx9 plugin also.Did you guys ever experienced this?

use audio limiting

Original comment by danialho...@gmail.com on 16 Aug 2010 at 12:18

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Yeah, audio limiting isn't accurate enough, so it results in non-uniform 
framerate (also known as micro-stuttering iirc)

N2008eogen: Yeah, the new code seems to have some problematic cases, i need to 
work on them.

So far i know of
Soul Calibur, SA2, JGR, Berserk, PSO. Any other affected ? Which games show 
minor problems ?

Sonic Adventure 2 is the only game I've tested, and as you can see from my 
previous screenshots, the problems are quite major.  They are just graphics 
problems, which isn't so bad.  It doesn't affect performance or stability.

I tested r59. Much better! 
But... many bugs is still there.
For example:
18Wheeller -- I cant see menu! Screen with title sometimes becomes black.
Red Dod -- I cant see menu.
JSR - Sometimes shadows takes fullscreen.
Berserk - Sometimes shadows takes fullscreen.

But, I see the progress! Exelent work!!!!

Sonic Adventure 2: Looks the same as the other modes.  In r54, the shields all 
looked perfect, but many objects were missing.  In r59, the shield looks funny 
again, but all the objects are visible.  It looks exactly like the other 
z-buffer modes.

Gundam FvsZ DX: All the menus are totally frozen, you can troubleshoot that 
changing to another z mode and then going back again, tested gameplay too, the 
pause menu doesnt appears with this Z-depth mode...all 3D stuff looks perfectly 
anyways.

Marvel Vs Capcom 2, Jet Set Radio:
Sometimes, the shadows get inverted, for example, while walking in some places 
(mostly where shadows end)...In MVC2, in the Clocktower stage, when the flying 
thing is over the arena, the same thing happens.
