Slowdown in SW mode during tech/ether attacks and when multiple A.G.W.S are on screen, but fullspeed in HW renderers.

==Known Issues==
{{Issue
{{Issue
|IssueName=Saving game may crash at specific save points
|IssueName=Smaller/aliased minimap icons in HW renderers
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=Software anti-aliasing (AA1) is not yet fully implemented in hardware, which is used for the triangle icons on the minimap. This is more obvious at native resolution.
|Workaround=Use SW mode or a higher resolution multiplier.
}}
 
{{Issue
|IssueName=Amplified banding in HW renderers
|IsFixed=0
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=0
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=Some save crystals will crash the game. List of definitely affected savespots: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/519264-xenosaga-episode-i-der-wille-zur-macht/62218540
|Description=Banding is very noticeable in any of the HW renderers compared to software. (https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/issues/7272)
|Workaround=Use save states.
|Workaround=Use SW mode.
}}
 
{{Issue
|IssueName=Black surfaces in cutscenes
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=Many of the cutscenes have black surfaces scattered on the environment or on characters. Gameplay isn't affected. (https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/issues/2737)
|Workaround=Use Vulkan HW renderer or SW mode.
}}
}}


{{Issue
{{Issue
|IssueName=Missing text
|IssueName=Overlapping shadows
|IsFixed=0
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=0
|IssueLevel=0
|Description= Text will be faded (or completely missing) in Hardware mode.
|Description=Instead of a single blended shadow, multiple pieces appear to overlap on the active player character's shadow
|Workaround=Possibly fixed with v1.3.1-966-g260c127. Go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, and set Renderer to any of the "(Software)" options.
|Workaround=Set blending to medium in DX11/12 or use any other HW renderer.
}}
}}


{{Issue
{{Issue
|IssueName=Shadows puppet lines
|IssueName=One row of garbage pixels across top and left side
|IsFixed=0
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=0
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=Shadows will have puppet lines in both OpenGL/D3D11
|Description=During cutscenes and some gameplay you may notice one row of garbage pixels across the top of the screen or along the left side.
|Workaround=Go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, turn on "Enable HW Hacks", go to Configure Hacks and enable the Half-pixel Offset hack or set TC offset to X=0000 and Y=1000(will fix puppet lines partially depending on scene). Alternatively set Skipdraw to "1" to remove shadows.
|Workaround=Zoom the screen in using CTRL + "Numpad +". You can reverse this with CTRL + "Numpad -". Alternatively use cropping feature in 1.7 QT.
}}

{{Issue
{{Issue
|IssueName=Black Lines in GUI/Menus etc
|IssueName=Corruption/garbage on save icons
|IsFixed=0
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=-1
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=Black lines show up in Character portraits and game menus.
|Description=Save icons contain some kind of colored garbage on them. (https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/issues/1857)
|Workaround=Go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, and set Texture Filtering to the default "Bilinear (PS2)" option or "Nearest".
|Workaround=None for now.
}}
}}


==Fixed Issues==
{{Issue
|IssueName=Ghosted frame after loading screens and FMVs
|IsFixed=1
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=A single frame from before a loading screen starts or the last position an FMV ends on remains on screen for a short duration when resuming gameplay, known to be a regression (https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/issues/6625), only affects HW renderers.
|Workaround=Use SW mode (issue resolved and closed).
}}
{{Issue
|IssueName=Shadow puppet lines
|IsFixed=1
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=Controlled character's shadow will have "puppet lines" in both OpenGL/D3D11
|Workaround=Go to Config > Graphics settings > Hacks, turn on "Enable HW Hacks", go to Upscale Hacks and set Half-Pixel Offset to Special (Texture). Alternatively set Skipdraw to "1" to remove shadows.
*'''Notes:''' HPO is set automatically by the Game Database in 1.7 when upscaling.
}}
{{Issue
|IssueName=Various Lines in Menus/HUD when upscaling
|IsFixed=1
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=Various lines show up in menus and HUD elements when using an Internal Resolution greater than Native.
|Workaround=Set Round Sprite to Full.
*'''Notes:''' Round Sprite is automatically set by the Game Database in 1.7 when upscaling.
}}
{{Issue
|IssueName=Characters sometimes have no shadows in cutscenes
|IsFixed=1
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=Characters don't have detailed shadows in cutscenes, only the simpler ones that are just circles.
|Workaround=Config > Graphics settings > Hacks > Enable HW Hacks and enable Auto Flush. Enabled by default with GameDB in 1.7.
*'''Notes:''' Auto Flush is automatically set by the Game Database in 1.7.
}}
{{Issue
|IssueName=Flashbacks render as completely black with D3D11 (Hardware)
|IsFixed=1
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=Cutscenes involving flashbacks with a black and white filter instead render as a completely solid black box. Gameplay isn't affected.
|Workaround=Use the OpenGL renderer instead of Direct3D11.
*'''Notes:''' Fixed in 1.7, DX11/12 renderers are usable.
}}
{{Issue
|IssueName=Saving at specific save points may crash the game
|IsFixed=1
|IssueLevel=1
|Description=Some save crystals will crash the game. List of definitely affected savespots: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/519264-xenosaga-episode-i-der-wille-zur-macht/62218540
|Workaround=No longer an issue on 1.7.0-dev-115 and newer. For older versions, [https://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-Post-your-PCSX2-cheats-patches-here?pid=603236#pid603236 A patch has been made to prevent crashes at all save points]. Alternatively, create save states before interacting with save points. If a save point crashes the game, load the save state to resume the game, and avoid saving at that save point.
}}
{{Issue
|IssueName=Missing text
|IsFixed=1
|IssueLevel=0
|Description= Text will be faded (or completely missing) in Hardware mode.
|Workaround=No longer an issue as of at least v1.5.0-dev-3264-gd77d440a0. If present on older revisions, go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, and set Renderer to any of the "(Software)" options.
