DMC3, Onimusha 3 rely on this behavior.
They do fullscreen rectangle with scissor, then shift by 8 pixels, not done with recursion.
So we check if it's a TS effect by checking the scissor value.
Credits to Kojin for figuring out the issue.
In GSRendererHW, reuse the method CanUseSwSpriteRender for OI_JakGames.
As in current master, 16x16 "flat" sprite draws are performed via CPU: those are palette rendering better emulated with the SwSpriteRender.
Jak games do also many 64x64 "flat" draws, but mostly for render to texture effects that are already correctly emulated in the TC, so those draws are not done via CPU (as on the contrary happens for DBZ BT games).
Use SwSpriteRender to render sprites, which:
- fixes kaioken effect,
- fixes character outlines when upscaling,
- reduces frametime by up to 3ms with big upscaling factors.
Automatic, same as before, automatically enable based on height delta.
Force Disabled, fully disables the half bottom detection.
Force Enabled: Fully enables the half bottom detection.
Xenosaga handles the half bottom as an vertex offset instead of a buffer
offset which does the effect twice.
Half bottom won't trigger a cache miss that skip the draw because it is
still the normal buffer but with a vertices offset.
Issue #3147
Developed a new SW sprite render function, which is used to fix
Jak and Daxter colors in Jak games and to remove the old Jak games hack
which yielded wrong colors and clashed with TC search texture in RT function.
- Remove OO_JakGames hack for palette readback from framebuffer (slow,
clashes with texture in RT TC function, clashes with Target readback logic)
- Developed new method SwSpriteRender with CPU rendering logic
- Add OI_JakGames method using SwSpriteRender for CPU palette rendering (fast,
does not clash with texture in RT TC function, no readback required)
Bonus: fps also sees an improvement in Jak games 3-5 increase.
It will allow to render the shadows properly.
Rendering pattern is:
Save RG channel with a kind of a TS (replaced by a copy in this hack),
compute shadow in RG,
save result in alpha with a TS,
Restore RG channel that we previously copied to render shadows.
Typical shuffle case is 1/2 height so other half is undesired
In dbz we split the depth buffer.
- Sample first half, write to `0x0`.
- Sample second half, write to `0x800`
- Finally, sample `0x0` though `0xffc`
Crash Twinsanity is a similar case.
A short summary how d3d option behaves compared to gl.
None d3d-> behaves the same
Basic d3d-> even less than 1/3 of Basic opengl.
Medium d3d -> less than 1/3 of Basic opengl.
High d3d -> 1/3 of Basic opengl.
Note: Medium and High options are mostly intended for debug use.
It works on games such as Fifa Street 1 and 2 (character and stage
rendering), mission impossible operation surma (shadow rendering).
It needs at least Basic level of blending enabled on d3d11.
