I'm trying to help a friend make Star Ocean 3 run well on his PCSX2. Framerate hasn't had any problems, but he's very bothered by vertical and horizontal lines appearing on his display.
After he's spent hours of tinkering with TC Offset values and stumbling in the dark, we've made no appreciable progress.
Rather than keep stumbling, I'd like to ask for help. What system info would be necessary for coming up with a fix?
Tyvm for your time in advance.
Edit: first batch of requested screenshots posted both below and in OP.
Collected in dropbox folder.

First things first, What Hardware do you have for your pc? Is Intel or AMD for the CPU? IS Nvidia or AMD for the GPU?
After that what are your current settings and have tried different modes as far as software and hardware or have you just done one or the other?
The Best Way to get help would be to Post the Logs to the Form post so we can take a look at what you got. Also take a look at the compatibility section as some games have optimal settings posted (this does sometimes pertain to specific hardware), i do not know if Star ocean 3 does.
Does the problem only occurs during upscaling?
Can you please screenshot the issue?
Which pcsx2 version do you use?
Just FYI:
Star Ocean 3 normally has no issue like this, upscaled or not. It does need skipdraw = 4 to remove broken DoF but that's about it.
So yeah: screenshot, hardware, config please
Hm, my post with the screenshots is gone.
Well, I've collected them and put them in the OP too
Spam filter keeps flagging your posts, sorry!
Lol, no problem.
I eagerly await assistance. In the meantime I'll keep trying TC Offset values, but I somehow get the feeling that isn't going to be an effective fix given your questions about hardware et al.
Are the screenshot links working ok?
Those lines on the map are normal and are cuased by upscaling. Is the issue still present when you run at native? At least I always had the lines on the map when playing.
Confirmed. Map lines are normal, can't really fix em unless you don't upscale.
I thought you meant lines in the main game.
