Try:
Config -> Emulation Settings -> VUs
Set clamping mode to extra or extra + preserve sign

[levonnn]

It fixes the highlights, but not the wheel multiplying.

[levonnn]

Still, I'd like to thank you guys for impressive work. It looks and works almost flawlessly in software mode. Shadows are fixed. Only minor stuff is left.

@levonnn,

here shadows are not fixed, white blink on and off.
I tried also the settings for clamping mode to extra or extra + preserve sign but white shadows under cars are always there.

Did I miss something guys?

Thanks

You need to grab the build from this pr

Thanks for the reply @prafullpcsx2 but I don't see no download link there...

[RedDevilus]

Checks then appveyor then artifacts or ci and choose from there

[BroKill]

In Checks I see nothing clickable, it's empty.

Some good soul can send me the link?
Thanks

[RedDevilus]

Sorry it was check then appveyor then click below on one of the environments (green line under name) and then artifacts

I'm wondering if you guys are able to fix HW Render option for this game because using Software Render option it looks a bit blurry.
HW Render option has a few bugs I see : corrupted textures on cars and bad intro.

Thanks in advance

Intro is a hard problem, it's a shuffle effect but not the easy kind.
Textures on cars needs research from me still.

[asp0909]

I hope it is possible to fix this game in HW is the only game in the saga that can not be emulated well on PC

[BroKill]

@tadanokojin,

is there any news about HW Render with this game?

Thanks for your work and thanks to all involved.

Can someone tell me if the fix was put into 1.6.0, the thread has a 1.5 download which supposedly fixes the shadows under cars but in 1.6.0 the issue is still there. At least the cars look good in software mode and the game runs smooth overall.

[tadanokojin]

The shadows are fixed in 1.7.0 dev builds.
I'll look at the car textures today I guess.

The shadows are fixed in 1.7.0 dev builds.

amazing thank you

[tadanokojin]

Moving the car texture problem over to #3639 since original issue is about the intro.

[BroKill]

The shadows are fixed in 1.7.0 dev builds.

Which build? All 1.7.0 or a specific one?

Thanks a lot for your work.
