Texture/Mesh Warp

[kite1234567]

dont know if i need to post a log or not but can if need be, my specs are in the other post i made about the unpause crash,

certainly these arent supposed to look like this, i wonder how many other items i can find that do this.

post another weird graphical artifact

[kite1234567]

very rarely you will get a weird artifact on the muzzle flash of your gun when shooting in this intro area at the moment similar to the light artifact above

its very hard to get a screenshot of it

another weird mesh bug on the door after you find the destroyed generator

warped tree mesh after you get in the car and drive away after first meeting the two

The door one seems to happen with several double doors to some extent. I was just about to post about this myself happening at the hotel main entrance and dining room doors.

Also encountered a similar warping tree graphics heading north from SWERY '65:

Thanks both, the screenshots make it very clear. This is the native renderer: on some objects (double doors, some trees) a few vertices get pulled far out of place. We suspect those draws use stale data for the animation that moves them (hinges, wind). 2.0.3 didn't touch vertex data, so it has most likely been there since 2.0.

A few things would help us find it:

• Did you see it on 2.0.2 as well? Does it happen with the default emulated renderer (ROV)?
• A log from a session where you saw it (the logs folder next to the game), plus roughly where it was. You already gave us good spots: the double doors after the destroyed generator, the hotel's main entrance and dining room doors, the trees north of SWERY '65 and on the road after meeting the two.
• The first two screenshots (item previews in the pause menu): what looks wrong there, the item model or the blocky background?
• For the muzzle flash and the light artifact, a log from that session is enough.

Saves close to those spots would help a lot too: zip the userdata folder next to the game without userdata\cache (that part is big and not needed) and attach the zip here. With a save right before the doors or trees we can load the exact scene and dump the draw that breaks.

Here's the requested logs and saves on my part. This is still happening for me in version 2.0.3 and it does not happen with the emulated renderer. Also one more for the pile, noticed a bit of weirdness going on with the pillows in York's room. The triangular gaps are only there with the native renderer, but they are aligned like this and clipping into each other with both.

Thank you both, this is fixed in 2.0.4: https://github.com/LittleBitUA/DPRecomp/releases/tag/v2.0.4 (the launcher's Update button is enough).

Your saves made it quick. On Crowley9's hotel save a RenderDoc capture of York's room showed the pillow drawn with 217 triangle corners from a list the renderer thought held only 216. The native renderer misread the size of those lists and dropped the last entry whenever the count was odd, so the last triangle of the model pointed at its first corner: a long spike across the object (doors, trees) or a triangle facing away that the card skipped, which leaves a hole (the pillows, and York's tie showing through his back). Emulation never had this because it doesn't use that size.

If you still see a door or a tree pulled out of shape on 2.0.4, please post a screenshot and the log. The light artifact and the rare muzzle flash glitch are probably something else; if you catch them again on 2.0.4, a log and a save from that spot would help.
