Legend of heroes prophecy of moonlight witch problem

[superzeno]

Hi long time lurker first time poster. I recently downloaded the ppsspp for the android but I am having a problem with one of the games, legend of heroes prophecy of moonlight witch. In the game when ever I am in battle mode my character and monster sprites seem to be stuck in a picture. Like they look like unmoving pictures in rectancular box and the surrounding graphic animation just move around the sprites. When I try it on my laptop however it looks just find, so what the problem? What setting do I need to use to fic this, or can someone tell me whats happening to the sprite in the game please.

Try setting:

* Vertex cache OFF
* Retain changed textures OFF
* Lazy texture caching OFF

They can cause glitches like what you've described.

Testing builds of PPSSPPSDL git master on AARCH64 linux with Panfrost (FOSS) GPU drivers.
git master commit 39198b53a521ae7d8031303173b1b12164659017 (feb 23, 2021)

API v3.0.0 ES / Shading OpenGL ES GLSL ES 3.00

Build config SDL:Linux, arm64, Driver Mali G52 (Panfrost), NDEBUG // USING_GLES2 // ARM_NEON.

The Legend of Heroes Trails + SC and Crossbel Arc and most games render fine.

Legend of Heroes: Prophecy of the Moonlight Witch and Song of The Ocean (eng) have problems.

Title Screen and videos play fine. The SoTO scripted beginning (seagull flight) renders fine.


Tried vertex cache, retain textures and texture caching off.

GPU Driver test reports all okay:
Problem appears under wayland/wayfire and Xorg.

I'm guessing it's not a GPU driver issue on my system but rather something specific to PPSSPP and these particular titles. I have tested through many combinations of rendering and cpu options.

Anyone else see similar issues?

That's bizarre, definitely looks like a driver issue. I've played through Song of the Ocean from start to finish in PPSSPP with no issues, though only on Windows (x64) and Android (aarch64) on a git commit from 2 years ago. But it still works from what I can see.

Different games render differently, and this game might be using a combination of alpha testing and depth testing that Trails in the Sky wouldn't. The driver tests haven't been very comprehensive - they're mostly ones we've reported to vendors specifically.

Are you able to try Vulkan on the same device? We've definitely seen bad Vulkan drivers too, but I think the Mali ones have been pretty decent generally. That chip should be Vulkan capable.
