Hi there, first of all thanks for nullDC, that was a great surprise this week-end.

I have just tried Resident Evil - Code Veronica, and there are some gfx errors in the menu.

There, a picture for the right side menu:


And another one for the bottom left side of the menu:


Notice that the upper left side of the menu is invisible too in both of the screenshots.

Thanks for your good work!

EDIT: Missing infos on my second post

Sorry for the missing infos, here's my config:

Plugins: nullPVR 1.0.0 (with or without Dynarec, with or without CP Pass), Image Reader Plugin 1.0.0, nullAICA 0.1.0, nullDC Controller Winhook 1.0.0, 2x nullDC VMU 1.0.0, nullExtDev 1.0.0

..tried RE CV too,this what I have so far:

-nullPVR has issues with menus and text,as reported already.

-the graphics are flawless using Chankast PVR with Z-Write options enabled,sound is perfect as well using Chankast's AICA (and it doest die after a while like it did with chankast).bad new is that there is no way how to limit FPS when using Chankast's AICA,and the game runs waaay to fast to be playable.nulldc totally needs an FPS limiter somewhere in the emulator core..pretty please :innocent:

-using nullAICA (sync to audio on),the frames are much more acceptable (although still not perfect),but the sound quality is much worse (changing buffer size didnt help),when compared to Chankast's AICA..quite a lot of cracking noise,especially when some background sounds (like rain) are present.

-gamma slider would be great as well,CV is very dark..but that a very minor issue.


anyway,I must say that nullDC is a great improvement compared to earlier emus,great work & many thanks :)

I'm running A64 3700+/x1950xtx/onboard AC97/win xp pro with latest drivers & DX9c feb

I have a very annoying graphical bug in RE:CV.
When I pick up the two Golden Lugers, the whole screen goes grainy. I can get through this point (I don't pick them up), but when I get to the "submarine part" I can't see/do a thing.

I tried my save with Chankast and Demul, they all produce the same bug... Is this a known bug with RE:CV or is it on my system only? Is there a solution?

Here is another screenshot. (Steve picks up the Golden Lugers)
It indicates that the problem is with displaying only that specific effect (gas/water)

Any advice?

that gas/water thingy is a known bug,the effect simply doesnt work when using Chankast PVR graphics plugin.try using nullPVR graphics plugin for that part of the game.

alternatively,you can simply ignore the issue-simply dont pick the lugers up (steve will pick them up,and you will have to turn of the gas or something similar,I dont remember anymore),and use the map to navigate through the "submarine" part..

Sadly, the bug is present with the nullPVR plugin...
But thanks for the map-advice! :)

Ehh... implementing the feature (render to texture) would fix the problem... Apparently.
Ok. so we can wait (maybe in the next release ?? ... who knows ??...) to see if this can be work :) thanks ;)

There is no plan to imlement on the next release , as it whould have a speed impact on slower gfx cards ... but i may as well implement it and require faster gfx cards =P

For a perfect emulation I imagine that it will require it. Maybe is the price we need to pay, if we want perfection..I trust that it will be implemented when the precise moment Arrives... :)
thanks to explain, now I have a clear idea of this. Sorry for my English :)
