Title Name: Elder Scrolls III, The Morrowind - Game of the Year Edition (USA) #469
Comments
I think the behavior may have improved a bit since this was filed, I can see the game world being rendered with some significant artifacts (a red poly instead of what I guess is a shadow / stencil buffer behind the NPC?) OS: Kubuntu 21.04 Version: 0.6.1-33-gc8c8cacc6e |
Yeah shadow / stencil buffer implementation is broken in a lot of games. |
@abaire I asked OP to retest it on the discord and behave hasn't change so it might be version differences causing the bug. |
Yeah, i've recompiled from the latest git commit (as of the date of this post), tested the game and still having the exact same issues as the original post, i am now using the latest nvidia driver instead of the 460 driver.previously it seemed buggy but now at least in my experience it is quite stable. Note: I use Ubuntu Mate distro, but it's basically just ubuntu with the DE replaced, so this might be the cause but i really doubt it. |
Thanks for the info! It's very strange; I'm also dubious that distro would have anything to do with it. I'd expect that if there's some weird difference in dependencies it'd almost certainly be video driver (or HW)-related. I wonder if there's some interesting timing issue with the game code itself, like perhaps my system ran slower than yours and it ended up not flashing up the screen at all so then it doesn't get stuck? If you're interested in debugging more, compiling with |
@abaire I have done this. I take it you want my I booted the game and played up until the keyboard appears to enter the player name and then closed xemu. I am running Windows 10 and the bug appears the same as shown in the original post, NOT like #469 (comment). It might be worth mentioning that we are using the same GPU but my CPU is a Ryzen 5 3600X. I built xemu from commit 758e36d |
@nalabrie thanks, unfortunately the way to get full nv2a logs changed very recently, so this log file does not contain the interesting bits. I believe you now need to do a debug build and pass Alternatively, if you sync back to |
No problem, I went back to commit a13f3f4 to be safe. The log file ended up being about 150MB so I had to upload it to Google Drive. Hopefully that has the information you're after. https://drive.google.com/file/d/11VXcr6bJodfgrOlY14UsETtec37uUuEP/view |
The log could be useful; if it's not a big hassle for you it'd be great to attach it. I think you're actually best off syncing back to master and using the new tracing functionality as you can turn it on via the monitor (under debug) just before you do the interesting thing to keep the size down. https://www.qemu.org/docs/master/devel/tracing.html#generic-interface-and-monitor-commands has the docs on how to enable the tracing. You'll know you have the logging enabled if it outputs things like: Edit: And on save states, they're not easily portable as they're saved in your xbox HDD image. I also just double checked my disc and realized I have the NTSC Platinum Hits edition of the game, so maybe this really is specific to the GotY build and my test is invalid? |
@abaire I'd love to help but commit 517e4b3 coincidentally fixed this issue entirely lmao. Good work. Off topic, but it looks like the water rendering is bugged. You can see it in my video during the race selection section. |
@nalabrie Awesome, no need for the log then :) Would you mind filing a new bug for the water rendering issue? I'm also curious if #720 will have any effect on that. Hey @mborgerson or @databoose can we close this as fixed by #599 ? |
Sure thing, I can probably have that done sometime today or tomorrow. I'll also give #720 a try. |
@abaire Before I make a new bug report I have a question. First off, I merged #720 with master and that did not fix the water. I'll still file a bug report for the water issue. I might have found another bug as well but I'm unsure if this is just xemu's intended behavior so I wanted to ask before posting two bug reports. If I play the game up until I can make a proper save (not a save state), restart xemu, then I am able to load the save. But if I make a save state, save the game properly, load the save state, then all the real saves are gone. Even after restarting xemu entirely, the saves are forever missing just because I loaded a save state. Is this intended behavior or specific to Morrowind? It doesn't seem intended to me. |
Sounds good, hopefully it won't be too hard to track down. I'll keep an eye out for the bug report and will see if I can repro when I'm back with my machine.
I believe this is intended behavior. Think of a save state as a snapshot of the entire machine in time. This includes files saved to the hard drive (including the game saves in E:\UDATA). When you revert to a xemu snapshot, it's more or less like anything that happened after you took the snapshot never happened at all. It should not be specific to Morrowind, I'd expect that behavior to be the same for all games (or manual FTP-ing, etc, everything). |

Bug Description
Cannot see anything in the game, audio is fully working, and the game is still otherwise running, but there is a black overlay with red corners (presumably the red edges are supposed to be when the player takes damage?)
As far as i can tell, this bug never goes away and remains the entire game, rendering it effectively unplayable.
Steps to reproduce :
Expected Behavior
Red corners are not supposed to appear at all, the screen is supposed to fade in from black from the video intro to fully visible (it is very quick but can be seen in the video below)
