PS: Isn't this merged to pcsx2 yet ?

There is currently an auction for one on Yahoo JP that I can link to if anyone would be interested in picking up a copy for testing, although additional fees will cost you around ~15-20 dollars extra if you order from the US via proxy.

16:18:39 - mirh: so... nobody gave a look to racer_s's gsdx fix?

16:53:43 - gregory38: hum it will likely cause bug on some games
17:10:44 - mirh: it does actually solve some bugs in others though
17:12:39 - mirh: and anyway, if you look at the code, there's an if conditional... that I believe is there to avoid the games you mention
18:25:44 - pseudonym: Ummmmmmmmmm. Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
18:25:55 - pseudonym: Isn't he basically just forcing everything to native res with that patch?
18:27:35 - pseudonym: Removing hd rendering would indeed fix hd rendering bugs
18:27:39 - pseudonym: "fix"
18:38:43 - mirh: afaik that *fixes* hd rendering
18:38:58 - pseudonym: From his description, it disables it
18:39:06 - pseudonym: He just doesn't realise that's what he's doing
18:39:16 - mirh: wait wait
18:39:32 - pseudonym: You didn't link the post with the actual patch
18:39:41 - mirh: check a page behind
18:39:55 - mirh: native resolution rendering is just fine
18:40:51 - mirh: this instead makes possible proper rendering for HD resolutions
18:41:05 - mirh: you get odd vertical lines otherwise
18:41:05 - pseudonym: ...not seeing a patch -_-
18:41:11 - pseudonym: Seeing a dll and a ***** full source tree
18:41:17 - pseudonym: I'm not going to generate a patch myself.

18:42:12 - mirh: http://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-GSdx?pid=...#pid428109 and here it's transcribed
18:43:04 - mirh: [though I'm noob and I can't get a working plugin from it]
18:43:53 - pseudonym: ....that is a massive hack which will in fact completely disable rendering altogether for many games
18:45:23 - pseudonym: That's not fit for inclusion. It's not even a good game hack.
18:46:02 - mirh: so... any other idea for those pesky vertical lines?
18:47:05 - pseudonym: I don't care. Use native res.
18:47:33 - pseudonym: I can probably tell you what's happening though
18:47:49 - pseudonym: It's most efficient on the GS to do large renders in vertical strips
18:47:59 - pseudonym: To avoid crossing memory boundaries
18:48:51 - pseudonym: So the game's final rendering stage in this case is scaling its internal buffer to the display resolution by flat textured quads across the whole screen
18:49:59 - pseudonym: Rounding on these strips is creating gaps, likely the original geometry doesn't have the edges meeting up, just well enough that they get rounded correctly on the GS
18:51:01 - pseudonym: If you really wanted to hack it, replacing the geometry with a single quad would be the way
18:59:20 - mirh: would I have better to post a remainder on the forums or open an issue on github..?
18:59:41 - pseudonym: It's a ***** patch.
18:59:54 - pseudonym: How can I express this in a way that you understand?
19:00:24 - pseudonym: It literally disables rendering if the framebuffer is located at the start of GS memory
19:01:17 - pseudonym: (There are absolutely no restrictions on where you place your internal and display framebuffers in GS memory)
19:03:16 - gregory38: technically it replaces with a SR (but that not better)
19:03:19 - gregory38: I need to go
19:09:18 - mirh: i had high hopes after I saw the results..
19:09:20 - mirh: but I guess I'll have to put heart at rest
22:32:53 - cotton
23:35:53 - MrKB: pseudonym: http://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-GSdx?pid=...#pid424436 <-- that doesn't look like native res to me
23:38:20 - pseudonym: MrKB: I revised my opinion after I actually read the code
23:38:37 - pseudonym: What I initially said was based on a post about the patch, since I couldn't see the patch itself
23:38:47 - pseudonym: It's still bad, but differently
23:38:49 - MrKB: Oh gotcha
00:46:25 - mirh: glimmer of hope?
00:47:35 - pseudonym: No, after you found the patch for me everything I said stands
00:47:50 - pseudonym: It's bad code with a bad intent
00:49:04 - mirh: fixing hd resolutions is inherently bad?
