Latest update reintroduced the bug on level 3, 4.
No combination of settings seemed to fix it.
Previously "Strict rendering" solved the issue.  Now I tried everything and the problem is still there.

Vertex cache, write color buffer, accurate xfloat, etc nothing worked so far. I've attached a log file if that helps.

Can't say which version worked. But it was definitely the one that was only a bit older than the major update of RPCS3 last month [that made many games playable using compiler].


Edit:   Latest version of RPCS3 "v0.0.6-8085 Alpha [2019-05-08]" solves the graphical problem.

However, performance too a hit. Even in levels where the bug wasn't present.

Seeing the same rendering Issue I reported for NHL Legacy.  A part of the screen is not rendered correctly.

Anyone else having sound mute issue with this game?

Don't know what happened but the sound mutes itself few moments after starting the game. After that if I restart the game, the sound stays upto only GameLoft screen. And then it's gone.


The problem most probably is on my end cause I even tried 0.0.6.xxx versions and getting the same issue there. This all began after I clean installed my PC. Other games on RPCS3 aren't getting is muting issue. What should I look for and how can I narrow down the problem?


Edit: Attached log

   
To fix the main character looking like a mess of pixels enable debug mode in config menu (edit CurrentSettings.ini in GuiConfigs folder set showDebugTab=true)
then in debug menu disable "Use GPU Texture Scaling"

Also ensure 'Write Color Buffers' is enabled under GPU tab.

Worked on the sound muting problem might be fixed using PPU interpreter. SPU  LLVM and enable acurate x float, SPU block size giga, preferred SPU threads auto.
Not sure exactly which setting it was that made the big difference but it seems with enough tinkering it can be worked out.
