Hack was used to remove garbage data rectangles from popping up on screen when objects and characters were added to or removed from the world.
This issue is now being handled by OI_DoubleHalfClear in GSRendererHW.cpp, so the hack is no longe necessary and has been removed.
Removes Alpine Racer 3 hack. Issue has been resolved.
Moves NanoBreaker hack. Issue has been resolved for OpenGL and hack has
been moved to DX only.
Moves Tri-Ace games hacks. Hacks are also necessary for OpenGL with "Partial" CRC Hack Level to prevent massive slowdown.
Move Tales Of Legendia hack back as it's also necessary for OpenGL with "Partial" CRC Hack Level to prevent graphical issues.
Close: https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/issues/1698
Added PAL and NTSC-U CRC's for Ar tonelico II.
* 0x9C712FF0, Jak1, EU
* 0x472E7699, Jak1, US
* 0x2479F4A9, Jak2, EU
* 0x12804727, Jak3, EU
* 0xDF659E77, JakX, EU
Please report me the CRC of the US version too so I can add them.
Please test the shadows rendering (openGL HW + accurate blending at least basic)
The game sets the framebuffer as an input texture. So I did the same for
openGL. Code is protected with a CRC. It is working because the game want to sample
pixels.
For the record, I tested it GTA too, it doesn't work as expected because
the game will resize the framebuffer to a smaller one. So you don't have
the guarantee that pixel will be read before a data write.
Note: it requires at least accurate blending set on basic
Note: I need CRC of all Jak games that suffers of this issue. Thanks you :)
The hack only fix the HW renderer but not the SW renderer. However I'm not sure
the issue is from GSdx.
The hack will disable alpha test that used to generate empty draw call.
It would requires some texture dynamic width convert shaders.
So as a quick solution, let's add a new CRC hack.
For issue #1362 (granted the CRC is correct)
It is mostly the texture shuffle effect which is now emulated correctly on openGL
They remain in the Dx level as speedhack in particular for
* Castlevania;
* GodOfWar;
* StarOcean3;
* ValkyrieProfile2;
* RadiataStories;
Remove old commented hack: Drakengard2, ArctheLad, ReZ
Separate hacks that are only enabled in aggressive mode
- 14 Updated hacks, 41 new hacks (See full list at the first comment).
- New crc-hacks might have patial crc lists, so it's possible that some copies won't get the benefit (yet).
- Non crc-hacks code was NOT imported from Cutie, so some crc hacks might not be as effective as within Cutie itself.
- New region: CH, few more CRCs.
Note:
Due to the very big list of affected games, I couldn't test the vast majority of them, and so your help would be appreciated in testing. Please report (even if someone else already reported with the same result as yours) with the following format:
<game name> - <better/worse/same> (reason) - tested <little/medium/much>
e.g.:
Tomb Raider Legend - Better (removes garbage graphics) - tested a little.
GTA San Andreas - Better (removes ghosts) - tested a little.
And of course, big thank you goes to the author of Cutie, for the time put into improving PCSX2, and for respecting the GPL license and releasing the code.

Skygunner crashing on boot.
James Bond 007: Everything or Nothing doing a huge Vram usage when opening the weapons screen and making the system crawl at it. Couldn't test much with this one and only added the US version for now.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4921 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Summary of changes...
Fixed menus and HUD for Spyro: A New Beginning and Spyro: the Eternal Night.
Fixed missing dialogs and reduced the VRam usage a bit for Tales of Legendia ("8-bit textures" help a bit more with Vram/speed). Should be playable now in hardware mode. Thanks to rama for figuring it could be hackfixed this way and the initial patch :)
Half-screen fixes for Ty the Tasmanian Tiger 2, X-men Origins: Wolverine, Call of Duty: World at War - Final Fronts.
Modified the Star Wars: Force Unleashed hackfix a bit, shouldn't have the see-thru objects anymore.
Also modified the Metal Gear Solid 3 and Gran Turismo 4 hackfixes as they needed different skip values for each region (PAL/NTSC). Thanx to avih for the region code... and the free C/C++ lessons :P
The hackfix for Sly 3 was still showing stripes for 3-D and two-player modes, fixed for NTSC version now and hopefully works for PAL one too.
Couple GameDB updates after the gif rewrite.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4833 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Adjusted the SW Battlefront hackfix for the PAL versions (NTSC-U and PAL versions have the same CRC but use slighty different buffer/texture addresses...)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4787 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
The Lord of the Rings: the Third Age (Removing fat stripes on screen).
Digimon Rumble Arena 2 (Half screen issue).
Star Wars - The Force Unleashed (Hiding HUD and 3d issues. Not perfect and NTSC-U only, not sure if it works with PAL).
Star Wars Battlefront 1/2 (Huge VRAM usage issue. NTSC-U only, not sure if it works with others).
Black Hawk Down - Team Sabre (Half screen issue and removes the night vision filter which was broken and using a lot of VRAM).
Minimal changes to other CRC hackfixes and GameDB.

GameDB: Onimusha 4: Dawn of Dreams playable again with a patch. Minor other updates.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4706 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Also a few changes for Tekken 5, "City at sunset" stage, hopefully there's nothing else wrong with this game anymore.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4585 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Added Haunting Ground to the list of games that get their post processing automatically removed.
The game still shows a badly blended fog but is otherwise nicely playable now.
Hacks are from an unknown coder. Thanks for figuring it out! ;)

Apply hackfix for Wild Arms 4. Thanks Lana and 89CamaroIROCZ :)
We're still missing the PAL and JAP CRCs though. Issue 185 collects them.
