Known Issues
Scenes are distorted and unwatchable
- Status: Fixed
- Type: Serious
- Description: Some cut scenes are distorted and unwatchable using a hardware renderer but they are far and few between (maybe half a dozen in the whole game), the context is still clear from audio.
- Workaround: Software rendering may fix this.
(fixed since r5229)
Darker screen
- Status: Active
- Type: Minor
- Description: In dx11 hardware mode, screen often gets darker than it should be.
- Workaround: Dx9 mode would fix this, but fps is severely reduced.(30~50%)
Alternatively: Enabling Alpha and Half-pixel Offset along with a TC Offset Y of 1000 (in the configuration menu of HW hack) fix the shadows and the screen being too dark problems.
