GRAPHICS ISSUES

[HiTechAndroidGaming]

I am facing graphics issues with the new PPSSPP v0.8 & v0.8.1 like in WWE SVR 09 players are invisible , in NFS Undercover cars and roads are black & Spider Man 3 keeps on loading .

These all games worked with v0.7.5 & v0.7.6 pls fix the issue

Your GPU should be a PowerVR. Unfortunately the emulator have a problem with this GPUs. I think this GPUs have a bad driver to compile complex shaders. Wait for updates of emulator.

EDIT:Like Henrik says in other post, but he say about the GPU Mali, but I think the Mali is based in PowerVR:

Previously you were likely missing graphics. I assume you are using a phone with a Mali GPU, and they have terrible drivers that often fail to compile complex shaders. I added the hardware transform error printout so that we would notice when a shader failed to compile. It falls back to software for those graphics, causing the slowdown.

I'm slowly working on optimizing the shaders so they hopefully will all succeed on Mali but we'll see if it's possible to fix completely.

Yes, but it was fixed. I think the Mali GPUs is more simple. It had bugs seems this:

i see .... but only v0.8 both note 2 and canvas 2 face the problem

The issues with Mali started a bit before release of 0.7, and was fixed later.

In 8.0.to 8.1 in wwe 09,10,11 you cant see Players, but i think this issue is new versions where dont have media engine

Since the official 0.8.1 is outdated see if the problem is fixed with the latest build which you can grab from here (look under "Automated PPSSPP Builds").
