GSdx

Yep, but it might not be the case for others scene.

Yep, but it might not be the case for others scene.

It's the same hack as you are using on AT1 right?

I have both games, and I have saves in practically every area for both games as well(I make saves like crazy). I could quite easily test it.

I maybe have found a better solution. I'm very close to correct rendering. Please find the patch is attachment. There are 2 hacks
1/ the previous one: UserHacks_align_sprite_X
2/ the better one (2x only): UserHacks_stretch_sprite_X

Edit: I posted a new version.

By the way, I tested without the filter option (in my opinion this option must be disabled for sprite rendering accuraccy).

I computed a formulae to extend the latest hack to support all upscaling (+ filtering of standard primitive). Only 2x is pixel perfect (which is consistent with the math). Unfortunately others scaling (3x/4x) are better but not yet perfect. I'm not sure I can do better. Anyway I will clean my code and commit this latest hack.

Next round will be a new look at ace combat/colin3. If someone have some GS dump for tekken and others game that have massive vertical line so I can give it a look. Thanks.

I know AC5 has vertical lines. I can do a GS dump for that if needed.

[gregory]

I have an ace combat dump (squadron leader). Is it the same?

Edit: by the way, the 2D strech texture hack was commited.

[Blyss Sarania]

Nice, I'll be checking it out momentarily. Good job!

[Blyss Sarania]

I guess I'm not doing something right. I compiled the latest GSdx, set UserHacks_stretch_sprite_X=1 in gsdx.ini, made sure HW hacks was enabled.

No change.

Edit: Oh also with filtering off. Still no change.

[gregory]

remove the _X

UserHacks_stretch_sprite = 1

Edit: yes I love changing option name Hack does both X and Y so I feel it was better without the _X

[Blyss Sarania]

Ahh yes. Yeah it works perfectly at 2x. Pretty well at 4x. Not so well at 3x. But that makes sense that it would do better on 2 and 4(half pixel * even number = full pixel?)

Also is it forcing filtering off? When I have it on even setting full tick box in filtering does nothing. I mean it's fine if it does, I am just curious.
