Ppsspp: Ridge Racer Black Wall Textures

[Panderner]

I found a bug where I saw black wall textures in Ridge Racer

I'm using Realme C2 Android 9 Pie and ppsspp-v1.8.0-507-gaea42006d

[hrydgard]

Yeah, this seems to have appeared fairly recently. Do you think you can try some old builds to try to pin down when this started to happen?

[Panderner]

Yeah I found it in previous builds

[hrydgard]

Many versions back?

Are you using Vulkan or OpenGL?

[Panderner]

Opengl

[Gamemulatorer]

@Panderner complete your phone specifications like what's the GPU, CPU and graphics backend like OpenGL or Vulkan and most importantly what version of ppsspp this issue didn't happen 🤷

[Panderner]

Problem solved. I turned on disable slow effects to fix this bug. But Sonic games too bright when you turn on disable slow effects I remembered #6117

[hrydgard]

Actually, that's really weird. The walls should be ok even with slow effects not disabled.

[Panderner]

False. The bug still happens when the disable slow effects are not turned on

[Gamemulatorer]

@Panderner are you using the USA version of that game if yes could you possibly upload the savestates of that game here so that I can also check the bug 😅

[Panderner]

Disable slow effects on:

Disable slow effects off:

[Gamemulatorer]

Go to PSP > PPSSPP_STATE > then compressed ULUS10001_1.00_0.ppst and ULUS10001_1.00_0.jpg into zip or rar file then upload here so I can try that part of the game that you SS

[Gamemulatorer]

@Panderner ???

[Panderner]

Here:
PPSSPP_STATE.zip

Looks fine to my phone with Mali 450 GPU using your savestates
EDIT: Sorry I also have the same problem but not the same as you I notice the trees background is all black even block transfer effects is on in my phone 😅

Hmm... 🤔
Can you check your display settings in ppsspp and see if it's set to auto scaling?
That's the only thing I think that causes that issue in your phone also are you using fullscreen mode of ppsspp?

[Gamemulatorer]

I'm hoping this GE Dump can track the issue

Enabling The "Disable Slower Effects" fixes the graphics glitches in my phone also speed up the game performance ^_^

[Panderner]

Thanks I turned on disable slow effects

[Gamemulatorer]

@Panderner can you check the graphics > display layout editor and see if it's AUTO SCALING if YES try to change it to PARTIAL STRETCH?
and see if this solve your problem?

[Panderner]

@Emulatorer Nothing happens

[Gamemulatorer]

Ok probably @unknownbrackets and @hrydgard can only solve your issue about
that ^^

Sorry I didn't help you :(

This problem started at the following commit by @unknownbrackets : https://github.com/hrydgard/ppsspp/pull/12158

Here's a GE dump with a repro:

Haven't investigated more yet..

[hrydgard]

Closing it as fixed for now after reverting that in d8db8ec, but will reopen when digging into #12272.

Thanks @hrydgard
