Rpcs3: Regressions from #5675

[kd-11]

A regression tracker for any remaining bugs introduced by https://github.com/RPCS3/rpcs3/pull/5675.

EDIT: When reporting a regression, check if its fixed by enabling WCB and/or forcing CPU blit from the debug option.

[MSuih]

Yakuza 4 Ingame is now almost completely black now, only showing some lights in distance. Also there seems to be a still image that constantly flickers over the right side of the screen. Affects both opengl and vulkan.

The game also spams RSX: Blit request consists of an empty region descriptor! to log.

Indoor segments look a bit better, sometimes showing half or even full frame of correct graphics through the flicker.

Enabling WCB or CPU blit separately don't change anything. Enabling them both on OpenGL prints the following error to log and crashes the whole emulator: RSX: g_access_violation_handler(0xc2650004, 0): Assertion failed: src != nullptr (in file ...\rpcs3\emu\rsx\common\texture_cache_utils.h:1403)
On vulkan it fixes the flicker, but graphics are still mostly black.

In an earlier version of the PR Yakuza 4 worked fine, but I wasn't checking it often enough to know which change caused it to regress.

[legend800]

Do you not want issues that are fine with WCB + Blit?

Regression List:

Burnout Crash: (with or without WCB + Blit)
No longer playable - mad flickering of objects in levels following by a crash within a min or so (2/2 repro). GFX/stability perfect on Master. Happens with/w/o WCB+Blit.

S {RSX Decompiler Thread} RSX: New program compiled successfully x6
F {RSX [0x025d690]} RSX: class std::runtime_error thrown: Verification failed:
(in file c:\projects\rpcs3\rpcs3\emu\rsx\common\texture_cache.h:2101)

Backbreaker Vengeance:
Broken "Touchdown" text (only with WCB+Blit off):

Broken field logo: (with or without WCB + Blit)

Motorstorm Apoc. - (Needs wcb to render ingame gfx, blit makes everything black)
Does a weird thing now, where it shows a discolored edge that moves itself to the edge of screen and makes the black border bigger than normal. Strange.

[SkyEua]

In this new version (rpcs3-v0.0.6-7867-980c3d6f_win64).

The menu still continues with the same problem; but in the game.
The game came back to work normally, only in these parts of "balance" happens an FPS fall

What did not happen in this version of the RPCS3 emulator v0.0.6-7840-a43e7c17, even running in 5K, was perfect

Note: from the RPCS3 version v0.0.6-7840-a43e7c17 - FOR - RPCS3 v0.0.6-7857-1875dc3f the game gets injurious 0,73FPS

Need some general feedback with this build https://ci.appveyor.com/project/kd-11/rpcs3/builds/23040747/artifacts.
Note: Please check both OpenGL and Vulkan and note differences if any. Flickering with vulkan in some games is expected due to uneven performance desynchronizing Cell threads. This is being worked on. If it works fine on OpenGL and is mysteriously flickering with vulkan that is likely the cause.

[BreakPoints]

The regression that I reported has been fixed in the new build. Not noticing any differences with master in Jak and Daxter's case.

Rampage World Tour NPUB30003

Monster Jam: Path of Destruction [BLUS30561] is same

[stride21]

In Resistance 3 the size of the screen portion that shows graphics when using the auger sight can expand and contract in size or completely disappear. When it contracts it can leave a still image that is the same size as the previous portion and it doesn't go away when it happens but with the PR it no longer shows still images when using the auger.

Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crank in Time is still the same with the recent PR.

[SkyEua]

Need some general feedback with this build https://ci.appveyor.com/project/kd-11/rpcs3/builds/23040747/artifacts.

RPCS3 v0.0.6-7862-154c8a2e
With vulkan, the game presents itself correctly, all the time in 30FPS even in 4k.
Only the opening screen, below 9FPS this time.
But occasionally I get the error:
F {RSX [0x014dea8]} RSX: class std::runtime_error thrown: Assertion Failed! Vulkan API call failed with unrecoverable error: Device lost (Driver crashed with unspecified error or stopped responding and recovered) (VK_ERROR_DEVICE_LOST) (in file c:\projects\rpcs3\rpcs3\emu\rsx\vk\vkhelpers.h:1278)

Already in OpenGL, It behaves the same way, low fps only in opening; running 30FPS at all times.
But when it comes to the "balance" part the FPS drops.

I would have sent the log file, but it gets really big 2GB ????

@jenci8888 I can't look into it if it dies with SPU crash; I certainly do not touch anything on SPU with this change.

[elad335]

This looks like a page fault miss.

[MarioSonic2987]

With Vulkan, MCLA now shows pink flickering reflections. Enabling Force CPU blit doesn't fix it. SRM and WCB (needed to fix broken car) are enabled.

You forgot to clarify what OpenGL looks like or if strict mode does anything.

[Emulator-Team-2]

@jenci8888
The fbo_fixes branch is not rebased on the latest master, so there is no fix for gt 5/6 in this branch.

[MSuih]

The only change for Yakuza 4 is that the OpenGL CPU blit + WCB crash has changed to RSX: class std::runtime_error thrown: Verification failed: (in file c:\projects\rpcs3\rpcs3\emu\rsx\gl\glhelpers.h:303)
It also no longer crashes the whole emulator.

[MarioSonic2987]

MCLA OpenGL

Before #5675:
With WCB (Different lighting is due to the game loads a different landspace in title screen.):

Without WCB:

#5675 and after:
Without WCB, has black flickering reflections.

With WCB, throws this in console and crashes the emulator:

·F 0:01:26.276390 {RSX [0x001e01c]} RSX: class std::runtime_error thrown: Assertion failed: src != nullptr
(in file c:\projects\rpcs3\rpcs3\emu\rsx\common\texture_cache_utils.h:1403)

With fbo_fixes new build, it still has black reflections without WCB. CPU blit doesn't fix it.
With WCB, throws this in console and crashes the emulator:

F {RSX [0x0031afc]} RSX: class std::runtime_error thrown: Verification failed:

[SkyEua]

https://ci.appveyor.com/project/kd-11/rpcs3/builds/23070933 Should fix unstable vulkan image (flickering)

In the "balance" part this is working normally, even in the part of the introduction.
Only in this part that remains the same.

[kd-11]

@MSuih So vulkan is still broken? I'll look into the OGL issue.
@SkyEua We had this regression before; I remember it was easy to fix - will look into it.
Fortunately the most dangerous bug (flickering, which means race conditions) is gone now so the rest should be manageable.

@Xcedf Unfortunately there is no way around that, the old method just looks up a value and doesn't even check if its valid. It 'just works' for some games but clearly breaks many others.
Optimizations to the new cache mayb alleviate the performance hit, but for now the performance regression has to be there.

Well, that was fast. The logspam is gone with #5742 applied on top of #5741.

[MSuih]

Would it be possible to have similar checks in the case where source region does not fit?

[kd-11]

Do you have an example where source does not fit? The fix affects both src and dst, but src allows 'clipping' of inputs for performance reasons. Tbh that is a hack and will be removed down the road.

@Emulator-Team-2 I'll need an RSX capture for that as well; something is 'off' with that second blit transfer

[kd-11]

Also, can you check if WCB makes the issue go away? In theory it should, although there is still a bug there that needs fixing.

[Emulator-Team-2]

@kd-11
WCB doesn't fix this issue.

[MSuih]

@kd-11 Uncharted 3 during intro and Lollipop Chainsaw during certain scenes. I was thinking it could help with the AMD hw blit memory leak, but on further inspection it seems unrelated as there is one case where blit causes memory leak with nothing in log about blit request failed.

Also I'm not sure if you need an update but Yakuza 4 is still black even after the last PR merge. Without CPU blit and WCB the right side of screen is still messed up, and there seem to be new long lines on left that I haven't seen before. Also with those two disabled it still spams Blit request consists of an empty region descriptor to log.

Edit: Somehow forgot to include an image, here you go:

[stride21]

Auger sight in Resistance is working correctly when using OpenGL and CPU blit with #5726 but it still has the same issue when you have low health most or all of the screen will turn black with or without using the auger sight.

Quick note, when testing make sure you first check if everything is working ok with 100% resolution scaling. Non-native rendering can break things so its worth making sure everything is native first and then report if scaling is what is causing problems.

Pushed an intersection fix to the new PR, you can retry with that.

[legend800]

So it's 90% better. It's still off in the menus, pause menu, start of race and cutscenes. But once the race gets going, it's fine. So you're definitely make changes in the right area.

[MarioSonic2987]

Black textures in RE6 are now fixed.

[kd-11]

@Emulator-Team-2 Is Monster Jam fixed now?

[Emulator-Team-2]

@kd-11
Tested with latest build.
[Vulkan]

[OpenGL]

[vsub]

Eternal Sonata - the game is running really slow in a lot of places(weak cpu)but for example in Tenuto Village when I just load my save and do nothing for the next 20 seconds,the max speed I can reach is 18fps but since 0.0.6-7857 till 7888,the max speed I can get is 12fps

So 5-6fps drop since #5675

[kd-11]

Pushed a fix for Monster Jam issue, retest other affected titles.

@vsub Performance is not a primary focus at the moment. Optimization will come later after accurate rendering is achieved. There are still several PRs left in the series.

[Emulator-Team-2]

Monster Jam: Path of Destruction is fixed now on Vulkan and OpenGL thanks.

[kd-11]

I suppose the only graphics issue remaining issue here is now Yakuza 4, right?

[legend800]

That and the Motorstorm Apocalypse black screen areas I think.

[kd-11]

Did you check @legend800? There were like 3 more commits/changes since your last test.

[Johndeep]

About Hyperdimension Neptunia [BLUS30701], after that PR, there was some change happening.
Again, I'm comparing between rpcs3-v0.0.6-7825 and now rpcs3-v0.0.6-7901 (since the 7825 was about the last "stable" before this huge texture change).
Furthermore, I wouldn't say it is a regression, but it seems that the blur effect in on the one hand finally present, BUT on the other hand, it is.. messed up.

After texture improvements, there are blur effects now, but not quite correct. (rpcs3-v0.0.6-7901) (Please don't mind the fps, because I paused the game)

No blur effects at all. (rpcs3-v0.0.6-7825)

[legend800]

@kd-11 Yeah, I was testing on the latest build.

I found that expanding the "screen area" in-game affects the "black area" bug's behavior in those areas (menus, pause menu, track countdown, start of race). If I go 100% screen size (default is 50%) then all those areas are completely black.

Default screen area:

Screen area changed to 100%:

[kd-11]

Likely fixed in my appveyor builds, but also breaks a bunch of other things (still wip)

[legend800]

Now it's just all black always, no matter the in-game setting (w/ WCB+Blit). Soft locks during launch unless Blit is forced on.

[stormymff]

Yakuza 4 is still in black screen with WCB and force blit CPU on.

[Xcedf]

GoW3 water colors are refixed with latest push

[kd-11]

@legend800 Check newest push for MS Apocalypse, fixed a few more issues. I think It's still broken if you use full display scaling ingame settings, I'll check it tomorrow.
@stormymff Force cpu blit is a debug option, it can't work properly with usable performance for all cases (specifically writes to render target area are often lost and there is no way around it that does not destroy performance). As long as the default settings work correctly, it's fine.

[Emulator-Team-2]

Tested with the latest commit:
BioShock still have pink graphics, but only with a vulkan without enable WCB+Cpu blit.

[legend800]

Motorstorm Apoc. is perfect (graphically) again. Thanks kd-11!

[kd-11]

Quick update on bioshock - I know why it's not working too well but it needs quite a bit of work (old code was working because of a hack). Should be ready in the next day or so.

[stormymff]

what about Yakuza 4?

[MSuih]

Yakuza 4 is working fine on the kd's appveyor builds

[stormymff]

How to use it?
the problem starts from here

and it ends like this

sometimes, if i walk near the walls and rotate the camera,i get this

but it does not affect on pause menu

RPCS3.log.gz

[MSuih]

1. https://ci.appveyor.com/project/kd-11/rpcs3/history
2. Click on the latest entry from fbo_fixes branch.
3. Switch to artifacts tab and download the largest file from there.

You could also ask questions like this at discord chat so that people following this regression issue woudn't get pointless notifications.

[stormymff]

My apologies sir. Thanks for the responds, this is my first time

[Xcedf]

@kd-11 just out of curiosity, since you're improving GPU Blit, is there any way to make GoW Ascension work with it, for now it only works with CPU Blit, with GPU Blit it has
E {RSX [0x026b69c]} RSX: nv406e::semaphore_acquire has timed out. semaphore_address=0x50300510
E {RSX [0x026c910]} RSX: nv406e::semaphore_acquire has timed out. semaphore_address=0x50300520
on older builds, before your tc rewriting i used a hack to make it work
disabling the line in texture_cache.h
cached_dest->reprotect(utils::protection::no, { mem_base, mem_length });
And it worked a lot faster than with CPU Blit, now it also works, except it cause the overall darkness ingame.

[kd-11]

Interesting, I'll look into it.

[kd-11]

Bioshock should now work correctly with builds from my repo. Check for any specific regressions. Only vulkan implementation is done, OpenGL in theory should be completely broken as format conversion is not yet implemented.
Uncharted 1 has a wierd glitch where it looks like motion blur is completely broken despite the fact that everything is being done accurately; this needs fixing before the commits are ready to PR.

[Xcedf]

Do not have Bishock to test but here's a portion of improvements of the last push

Baja: Edge of Control

The game still has some issues with skybox texture, but work a way better with GPU Blit now, besides maybe WCB+CPU Blit fix this, but work twice slower

Lolipop Chainsaw

The intro scene is not exactly totally fixed but also a way better

The Darkness Demo

Main Menu now looks fine, unfrotunately can't go ingame it freezes with Vulkan Driver Fail with GPU Blit

Fixed uncharted 1 as well (cache lookup bug); only OpenGL implementation of format conversions remains now. Just check if anything regressed in my builds. A PR should be coming in the next 48h.

[kd-11]

Retest any remaining issues with https://github.com/RPCS3/rpcs3/pull/5785.

[MarioSonic2987]

MCLA and RE6 still look fine with #5785:
