Mario Super Sluggers needs Disable Per-Pixel Depth for Neon Sign Minigame
0%
Description
Mario Super Sluggers - RMBE01
When you go into Challenge mode, you can pick many stadiums to go to, rescue characters from strangely baseball scenarios. Wario's City area, right at the start, has a Goomba who wants you to trace his Neon Sign. When you click the game, it zooms into the sign but the screen slowly white's out, as if it's being obstructed.
This doesn't make the Minigame impossible, but tracing the signs from memory would be an impressive feat.
I was using Dolphin 3.5-402(rd994e56b60aa0f6fc2f1da333d0b320fcfbda018)
Did this ever work? Yes, yes it did. Any build that has the option to disable per-pixel depth can play through it normally. It seems to have been removed by 3.5-147 r80f6e8b84cd98120ad55a6830a68039ab6a2a48

I should add, that the game does work properly in Software renderer, It's only OpenGL, D3D9 and D3D11 that need the disable per-pixel depth.

Many games work properly on Software, but no one actually uses it to play

I know, but I like to mention whether or not a glitch exists in software rendering, and I somehow forgot when writing the original post.

So, this option is created again and called "Fast Depth Calculation" in 3.5-1344.
Can you please recheck it both with this option enabled/disabled?
Updated by JMC4789 almost 11 years ago
Fast Depth Calculation has no effect on the glitch. I went back to 3.5 and confirmed disabling per-pixel depth fixed it. Using a fifo-log from 3.5 in 3.5-1344 still gets the whiteout.

Copyed from IRC:
but loading a fifo-log recorded in 3.5 into d3d9 on latest has the whiteout
As the fast depth calculation in d3d9 is exactly the same as in 3.5, there might be another bug hided by ppd.
So who wants to check from 3.5-146 to 3.5-549 with reverted 3.5-146?

I'm on it. Sorry I didn't see this sooner.

- Status changed from New to Accepted
- Category set to dx9
This issue is fixed in the back-ends that it's possible to be fixed in (aka not D3D9)
It was fixed by zcomploc merges, respectively for D3D11 and OpenGL.
