Known Issues

Map screen grid pattern lines too thin

Status: Active
Type: Minor
Description: When raising the internal resolution above Native the grid pattern get much thinner, making them hard to see.
Workaround: Go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, set Renderer to "OpenGL (Hardware)", click "Enable HW Hacks", go to Configure Hacks and enable the "Unscale Point Line" hack. Or set the Internal Resolution to "Native" or switch to Software mode by setting Renderer to any of the "(Software)" options.

Screen cut off at the bottom

Status: Fixed
Type: Serious
Description: Part of the bottom of the screen is cut off.
Workaround: This has been fixed in recent PCSX2 v1.5.0 git builds.

 {{Issue
-|IssueName=PCSX2 1.4.0 GSdx regression: Screen cut off at the bottom.
+|IssueName=Screen cut off at the bottom
 |IsFixed=1
 |IssueLevel=1
-|Description=One of the updates to GSdx to improve the CRTC output size handling caused a regression to occur in games that run in native resolutions of 640x480 pixels (or higher). Code Veronica X is one of those games. The regression itself is that it causes a part of the bottom of the screen to be cut off.
+|Description=Part of the bottom of the screen is cut off.
-:A fix is already in the works for this issue, but it most likely won't be added to 1.4.0 itself, so you will have to fetch an updated GSdx file from one of the future developer builds to get around this (Or  use an older GSdx, but that's somewhat pointless). There's no other workaround for this aside from sticking to the now outdated 1.2.1.
+|Workaround=This has been fixed in recent PCSX2 v1.5.0 git builds.
-|Workaround=Fixed in recent revisions of PCSX2. (1.5.0-dev builds)
