[BUG REPORT] Gran Turismo 4 (PAL)

[Zalien]

Hello everyone!
A bug appeared today on Gran Turismo 4 (PAL). It consists of a blue screen flash just before the start of player control on races. It appears systematically.
I hope this can be fixed.

[Zalien]

ok.
try :
- software mode
- disabling cheats/patches
- vulkan renderer

Yes in the meantime because this bug was not present with these same settings before today's update.

[jesalvein]

why this ? :
[6.3288] [Unsafe Settings] Mipmapping is not set to automatic. This may break rendering in some games.

[Zalien]

With Vulkan, the bug (that is in fact red or blue screen flash in some camera change) is there but not as much as in OpenGL renderer.

Because for Gran Turismo 4, community recommend Full PS2 Mipmaps
