Yeah, it's in game blur. I noticed it ages ago and it drives me nuts

What about software mode ?

Software mode does fix it, but causes a huge performance drop, everything goes slow motion.

I've tried that, still gets the blur, in fact that picture is of the game being run at 4x native.



I'll try skipdraw 1 but I've tried skipdraw 5 already and it didn't do anything.

What's your PC specs?

AMD FX-8350 8 core

8GB Ripjaws (I think)

You can set extra rendering threads to four or three, it will boost up the speed somewhat.

*boost up the speed in software mode

Also, somewhat? Gg

Now it's crashing when I go into software mode, is there a way to start the game in software mode? I guess I can just sit farther away from the screen lol but the thing is that it stops doing it when I pause the game, which makes me think it's a problem that can be fixed.

Config-> Video -> Plugin settings

Change Renderer to Direct3D 11 software.

But it shouldn't crash.

This blurring also happens to me in this game and others, like Tekken 5.

The Bob tff deinterlacing method gets rid of the shaky effect, but the game still looks blurry. Fun fact, pausing the game makes it look right, with Bob tff (watch at 100% size to see it better):




For example, look at the horizon, and that island far away. It's like my astigmatism in real life!

If someone has the NTSC version of Tekken 5: does the game not need deinterlacing in progressive mode? If it looks fine, then it's a much better version than PAL version.

A "force progressive mode" in GSdx would be great . It's a pity that many games with progressive scan cheats don't need it in PCSX2, while games like this need it the most.

PS: skipdraw doesn't fix this, nor any other hardware hack.

imo, that is correct, no deinterlacing option is needed. Tekken 5(US) looks incredible with ps enabled, as does most of the other PS2 ps games Ive tried, like SoulCailibur, GT4, etc..:






As for Jak, honestly the VU cycle stealing speedhack often contributes to this blurry/shaking look which is why I rarely use that. not to mention it gives false fps readings.... Blinkyrocket, if u have VU cycle speedhack on, lower it or shut it off(leave on the micro-vu hacks if need be). Then use bobtff interlacing option and see if that helps. Lower your rez a little if you ur fps decrease...

here is what mine looks like at 1920 x 1440 internal rez, pic is 1920x1080:



no issues..
