Oh, I forgot to mention that this also happens on DJ Hero 1.

[Crafty-The-Fox]

This also happens on the DJ Hero 2 demo

[Crafty-The-Fox]

might also happen to affect Guitar hero games, not sure though.

[Crafty-The-Fox]

RSX tag? not sure if that applies to this

[digitaldude555]

@Crafty-The-Fox retest.

[Crafty-The-Fox]

[Crafty-The-Fox]

@digitaldude555 still happening on newest master

[kd-11]

Please retest with current master. This is likely fixed.

tested with 0.0.16-12374-ddbe4960 and still not fixed

[shockdude]

Crowd graphical issues are still present in 0.0.17-12611, in DJ Hero 1, DJ Hero 2, and the DJ Hero 2 PSN demo.
Screenshot from the DJH2 demo attached. You can go ingame in the demo by emulating a turntable (enabling Pad 7) and then entering QuickPlay

Was just thinking about this issue on a whim and decided to make some more recent screenshots & logs.
Glad to see the new In Progress label, excited.

It's a mipmap generation issue for 16-bit texture formats. They are quite rare when it comes to blit engine so it can break without anyone noticing. I'll have a fix ready later today.
