Test configurations on Windows:
Environment | Configurations | Comments | Tester | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Region | OS | CPU/GPU | Revision | Graphics | Sound/Pad | ||
NTSC-U | Windows 7 Ultimate |
|
1.1.0 (r5380) | GSdx (r5376) |
|
Enable Alpha Hack to fix shadows. Plays just fine with no real issues. You can use either EE or VU hacks for an extra FPS boost. | CrazySteve88 |
NTSC-U | Windows |
|
1.1.0 (r5480) | GSdx SSE41 (r5442) |
|
Runs at 300% speed. | |
NTSC-J | Windows |
|
1.3 (SVN r5932) | GSdx |
|
USA v02.20(10/02/2006) Very rare to happen any little insignificcant shadow bug, for this turn on alpha hack in GSdx and play on perfection. It's possible appear some glitches in some cinematics in hardware mode, this not affect the game experience, in software mode it's fine. | |
NTSC-U | Windows 7 Ultimate x64 (SP1) |
|
1.5.0 (dev-1977 gdf32564) | GSdx 1.1.0 AVX2 |
|
BIOS: USA 2.30, Runs fine. FMVs work correctly in the more recent developer builds too. Shadows are definitely improved as of 1.4.0, but they can still glitch up from time to time. I personally haven't experienced the 'Sora ragdoll' issue when transitioning to different areas in the game, so that may have gotten fixed too, but I can't be too sure of that one yet. | Ryudo |
