(Android) Depth glitch in KHBBS when Buffered rendering

[Fei-Lix]

This depth issue was already old and i just got to report it now because I got no time to post it. Anyway, this issue only occurs in Android. My android smartphone is Xperia S and its specifications: Adreno 220 GPU and 1.5GHz Dual core "Scorpion".

Non-buffered rendering shows a correct depth:

Buffered Rendering shows an incorrect depth:

Does it mean PC one renders perfectly fine ?

[Fei-Lix]

yea

[dbz400]

I see. Wondering if it is depth issue or just missing texture rendering

[Fei-Lix]

well, i think its a depth, because polygons/objects were only visible when the character is near around it. correct me if im wrong

[dbz400]

I see. Humm , bit strange .I'll take a look tonight.

[Fei-Lix]

sure, take your time :)

For me on my DROID 3 playing DBZ shin budokai

i had missing objects from the background stage, but disabling mipmapping

Fix the missing background objects,

@RinkuFo if you disable mipmapping, what changes do you get

[Fei-Lix]

@adriandennis17 nah it didn't change any

[dbz400]

Is this issue still happen ?

[Fei-Lix]

@raven02 indeed yes

[dbz400]

@RinkuFO , can you share a savestate here ?

[Fei-Lix]

@raven02 sure, i brb

EDIT: about that.. is ur KHBBS is a USA or JPN?

EDIT2: Well here's the savestate of USA version, ask me if u need JPN version.

All versions get affected by it btw, US/EU/JP/FM+. If you want any savestate from any of those, just tell me.

[dbz400]

Thanks @RinkuFO .Will test it out

[Fei-Lix]

@raven02 you're welcome, take your time and hoping that you'll discover something interesting :)

[dbz400]

Humm i got an error loading it up . @RinkuFO , can you take one from latest build ?

[Fei-Lix]

@raven02 sorry for a long time no response..

here you go! and good luck ;)

[dbz400]

Thanks .let me test it out again

[dbz400]

Humm same error message ......strange.

[Fei-Lix]

@raven02 must be because of the savestate saved by Android and you'll get an error (which it does not recognize it) if you used the savestate by android using windows?

[dbz400]

I uses it on windows .I will try it on android

[Fei-Lix]

okay take your time ^_^
also just incase you get an error again, might be your settings didnt satisfied due to my settings are different as urs?
here's the significant settings on my android.....

Graphics:
Mode = Buffered
Mipmapping = On

=Performance=
ENABLED: Hardware Transform, Software Skinning, Vertex Cache, Lazy texture caching, Retain changed textures

=Hack settings=
Texture coord speedhack = On
...................................................
System:
=Emulation=
Fastmem = On
CPU clock = 333

...the other option that i have not mentioned means it is not rly a significant effect and others are unchecked.

Is this still happening in the newest builds?

[Fei-Lix]

@thedax I will test it out for a sec.

[Fei-Lix]

It seems still happening in the newest build

[unknownbrackets]

Just to be clear, this doesn't happen with buffers disabled, right?

Does this also happen with completely default settings - no speedhacks or etc.?

It may be a situation where it's relying on depth being copied between buffers. Does this also happen on any GLES3 device?

@unknownbrackets
sorry late response. I was busy from few months ago.
Wait, I'll try it again... I think I remember that I already tested it w/o any hack options.. but I'll retest again today.

[Fei-Lix]

Back..
I reinstalled with the newest build and it seems the problem was still occuring. Even though I already turn-off the speedup options such as Lazy textures, Retain changed, coord speedhack, etc

Just for comment. I have same troubles even in start game Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep Final Mix (ULJM05775).

Screen:

UPD: I think it was fixed, because I started new game and watched all videos. But other bugs still remain.

[ofry]

After all videos in starting game I will see black screen if I switch to unbuffered rendering and turn back to buffered rendering.

This is unbuffered rendering:

[ofry]

Now my issue with buffered rendering has solved after v1.0.1-769-gc4ea4e3

Please test it on Android smartphones...

[thedax]

@LinkEP or anyone else experiencing the depth issues: does this still happen in the latest git builds from the buildbot?

[unknownbrackets]

I wonder if this could even be the lack of depth blitting?

[ppmeis]

Tested with latest build. It works fine on my OnePlus Two:

Okay, will close. Can reopen if anyone who was previously experiencing the issue says it's still not working on GLES2 devices.
