{{Issue
{{Issue
|IssueName=Thin vertical lines
|IssueName=Characters cast no shadows on hardware renderer
|IsFixed=0
|IsFixed=1
|IssueLevel=0
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=Using high resolution in GSdx brings some thin lines over the screen.
|Description=Characters will not cast any shadow in any GSdx hardware renderer
|Workaround=You can either: Use native resolution or use 1260x(any) resolution. You can subtract any multiple of 60 from 1260 (eg, 1200, 1140, 1080, etc) as needed for performance, but no horizontal resolution greater than 1260 works. Vertical resolution has no effect on the black bars, so you can set this to any value you desire. In older GSdx versions, 1270 rather than 1260 works in the same manner.
|Workaround=Update to latest dev build.
Don't use HW AA, it will cause the problem even in "Native" resolution.

|Description=Some stages are darker than normal in GSdx hardware mode.
|Workaround=skipdraw=2 in hardware mode or software mode (F9) in GSdx helps with this but some stages will not show shadows where they should.
|Workaround=Use PCSX2 1.5 or later.

{{Issue
|IssueName=Thin vertical lines
|IsFixed=1
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=Vertical black lines appear when running the game in any resolution that's higher than native. This issue also occurs in various other [[Namco]] titles.
|Workaround=<s>You can either: Use native resolution or, use 1260x(any) resolution. You can subtract any multiple of 60 from 1260 (eg, 1200, 1140, 1080, etc) as needed for performance, but no horizontal resolution greater than 1260 works. Vertical resolution has no effect on the black bars, so you can set this to any value you desire.</s>
:<b>This is now fixed in the more recent developer builds found [http://buildbot.orphis.net/pcsx2/ here]. Use the 'Align Sprite' hack found under 'Enable HW Hacks' in GSdx options.</b>
