Status

Previous behavior:
Crashes on launch (see here)
Crashes at the first cutscene. Also showed same graphical errors as #178.

Current behavior:
Functions similarly to it's PAL counterpart. (Game plays relatively well with minor issues: Graffiti and shadows are missing, boost dash blanks screen.)

Additional Information

This is the NTSC disc combo, it also included Sega GT 2002 and some game demos/videos. Came bundled with the xbox at some point.
Tested on 94a2ddae (Oct 8 2017)

Always recieve this after the loading intro. Combo disc tested.

I'm unable to reproduce this issue on my machine, could you try a release build and see what happens?

[JackaJacka123]

I've got a similar issue. I am using a region free copy that only has JSRF (Sega GT 2002 is not on this disc)

This is using the release from appveyor from January 25th 2018

[HyperScorpio]

Do you guys check the sun light in the sky? Make sure it have some object or texture.

[HyperScorpio]

A few pixels appears here.

[HyperScorpio]

It must be some bad texture with a bad code in.

[HyperScorpio]

Thanks guys for this version.

1.01: Xbe.txt

Opening credit screens show properly:

Main menu with background music appears to show correctly:

Characters, rails, objects, and floors all appear to render in-game:

At least in GG's garage, lighting, item placement, textures, and character models appear correct, even from first person view:

Meters, effects, trick names, and score all appear properly:

Idle animations also appear to run smoothly:

Ground effects (like the dust plume) appear correctly:

Mission dialog boxes appear with proper static effect:

Paint cans also show up properly and animate:

Graffiti does NOT show up after spraying:

Tried to get an image of the boost effect, but unfortunately (as happened a lot in testing) it claimed my "disc was dirty", even with an unmodified (to my knowledge) XBE.

[ObiKKa]

There's also a third typical problem with this game - the big buildings and man made objects tend to lack their own shadow casts.
Also I recommend that you make use of an online photo collage website to compile 2 or a few screens into one by one montage screens. It's to make each post in the GitHub thread smaller. Coz we can all expect further bugs and posts to be made about these games over time.

This is most likely the issue why Graffiti doesn't work right

[PatrickvL]

We have to look into what's supposed to be in r1, and more specifically in it's alpha channel.

[LukeUsher]

It must be an issue with our shader converter: Basis that it is not possible to read from r (temporary) registers without writing to them first, earlier in the shader: The conversion must be missing something.

[PatrickvL]

As far as I can tell by the commented lines, there's no assignment to r1 in the Xbox shader, so it's more likely it's depending on some default content

[infinitephantasm]

graffiti when in gameplay seems to have a strange issue where the contrast/colors are wrong, and other graffiti's alpha channels seem to also get loaded in?

this isn't the case when changing graffitis in the garage, or in cutscenes (e.g. chapter 2's intro cutscene, where you can see poison jam's graffiti)

not quite sure as to why this is happening. on cxbx-reloaded 63bc65ec.

[infinitephantasm]

builds above 63bc65ec (this appears to happen in c6875ad9 and 8fd6253a) appear to be causing crashes when certain things involving the camera occur (camera switches in cutscenes and the camera changes done when picking up graffiti souls, from what i've been able to tell)
it always seems to be random, but it's always the same issue. i can't find anything in the kernel logs that could be the issue, only DSOUND errors that seem to be in both 63bc65ec and above (and it shows up beforehand iirc)

also possibly related, the startup time of the game (logos appearing) seems to be much slower compared to 63bc65ec

[ipwwn]

Can confirm build from December 2 2019 (63bc65ec) is way more stable than current build, I just played the whole Rokkaku Dai level without crashing whilst in the newest build it would be a matter of luck not to crash at around 5 minutes of gameplay

[xmat123x]

On an rtx2080 the player character and NPCs turn invisible. Using the DXVK wrapper as mentioned in the PAL thread for AMD RDNA users hasn't fixed the issue either.

I also got a game crash in the first mission but haven't been able to replicate it.

[lsdxm]

The game plays completely perfectly for me, including boost dash (but the graffiti issues still exist, I’m not observant enough to notice if shadows are working or not), until I get to Shibuya Terminal, where the FPS comes to a screeching halt. Professor K’s text bubbles take half a minute to catch up and go off the screen, and when I’m looking at a crowd or anywhere that renders the center of the level (the bus terminal) it slows to about half speed.

I originally ran it at 1080 but tried 1024x768 with the same results, if I go lower the game doesn’t load; I’m gonna try turning off vsync and see if it helps, will update then.

Edit: turning off vsync didn’t help, and I’ve now realized that the intro (Which also takes place in Shibuya terminal) isn’t supposed to be slomo. I’ve never played this on console so I just thought it was supposed to be that way, but when I get to the part that shows them skating around it jumps in and out of slomo whenever the terminal area is in view.

Edit #deux
The multi thread speed hack fixes it, but then it crashes semi-regularly.
