Xenosaga 1 text

[Sumulacrum]

Hi. I've been trying to get Xenosaga to run right. So far I have managed to get it to run at near enough full speed using gsdx but this has an issue in that it won't show some text such as in save/load menus. If I use Zerogs it will render the text but runs extremely slow or glitchy with the relaxed depth/specular hacks on.

Is there a tweak in gsdx that will show the missing text?

Which version of PCSX2 are you running?

[Sumulacrum]

version 0.9.8

What are your system specs? GPU in particular.

Try this:

Get latest SVN build from website. (SVN builds are the in-development version of the emulator, and while sometimes unstable, generally run better than stable beta.)

Use Gsdx plugin.
Turn on 8 bit textures.

And make sure to use DX10 rendering (Vista or better required).

System specs:

cpu- athlon64 x2 4800+ 3.2GHz
memory - 2GB ddrII
gpu - 7800gt

Not optimal I know, but it works well enough.

Lastest svn has the same issue. I am using Gsdx and turning on 8-bit textures does nothing as far as I can tell.

I'm on XP so no dx10 for me...

[Ambient_Malice]

Have you installed the latest Nvidia drivers?

Have you tried OpenGL rendering in the latest SVN?

Actually--
GeForce 7000 series are not DirectX 10 capable, anyway.

And I think rama really meant what he said...

Hmmm... well that's annoying. Oh well. thanks anyway.

As an aside, is there a reason why it doesn't work in dx9? Or is it just that the dx9 renderer is slowly becoming a "legacy feature" and so doesn't get the dev time it otherwise would?

It works fine here, DX9 and DX10 modes both.
Can you check if software rendering fixes it for you? (F9 while in game)
