Dolphin Emulator Extra Copies of Text Problem

[pjbridger]

Hi Guys,

 

I have a small issue with Dolphin,

 

Everything looks great, except,

 

In multiple games I have a strange issue where the text is messed up on screen,

 

This happens in new super mario, Wii Sports and more,

 

This issue only happens when using DX11, if I change to DX9 it dissapears, but the performance of DX9 is pretty bad for me,

 

I have tried setting the resolution lower and texture cache to safe but no joy,

 

If anyone knows how to fix this t would be great!

 

Thanks!

Which graphics card do you have and are you using the latest dolphin build?

Thanks for the reply,

 

I have a Radeon HD 7870 and i am using the Iishiiruka 661 build,

[ChrisKant]

Try a newer version of ishiiruka. I guess something with 8xx is out now

[pjbridger]

I tried the newer version, same problem,

 

Even more unstable to be honest,

 

any other ideas?

[JoyStickKilla]

Did you try vanilla Dolphin?

[pjbridger]

Still the same thing,

 

Im thinking there must be some kind of internal setting that needs changing?

[pjbridger]

This only happens intermittently if that helps,

 

As in some times the fonts show up as correct,

Does it still happen if u switch to using opengl instead of dx11? I have a few games that show the same type of artifacts, some I've noticed go away depending which graphics back end dolphin is using

[pjbridger]

@BATTLEDONKEY,

 

That does work!

 

The performance hit is pretty huge though, As you are no longer using the GPU so much,

 

would be awesome if there was an option so I could still use DX11?

[pjbridger]

Yeah its kinda unplayable at a decent resolution on OpenGL

[pjbridger]

Any other ideas?

 

Would love to run this using DX11

[Suhrvivor]

Try disabling antialiasing and using native resolution to increase performance. That does it for me on my setup with onboard Intel Graphics.

Thanks for the reply,

 

i can get the emulator to work on DX9 at 2x resolution with no issues,

 

I was just looking for an option where i could still maintain the 4x resoloution,

 

I guess ill just stick with the performance hit from OpenGL,

 

Thanks for suggestions,

hi guys, 

just to add,

Some games such as Super mario galaxy have messed up sprites which can be fixed using,

Texture Scaling Mode - XBRZ - 3X

This fixes the sprite issue in most cases and you can still use DX11 at 4X resolution
