Press Square / Switch if using New Translation.

If not, the old way was to try using antidote/elixir etc on yourself. A box will pop up with the status.

aye yaye yaye, just square the whole time...

edit: it doesnt happen every time, but more than 50% of the time since i discovered it, also i havent left this underground tunnel and tested that either for the record, nor have i tested for mode 2

i'll investigate.  And definitely doesn't happen with 60fps off?

Correct, has never happened with it off, and i've played the majority of the game with it off
 
@Orichalcon

pause also corrects the issue intermittently while stop is applied.  So... it's 100% related to 60fps

-- It's linked to the missing effect issue.  Something is being altered slightly because of the timing of the pause based frame limiter.

As per my issue above (more details provided), I have now tested the game with The Reunion on another TV via HDMI and the problem of no sound in-game (but sound during cutscenes) persists on that TV as well.

Does everything else work as expected when connected to HDMI? Windows sounds, video playback, other games?  I'm connected via HDMI audio to my external receiver and everything (including FF7) works as expected for me.

OK rather hilariously...  there's a counter and depending on what value it has will determine certain effects.  Take Slow:

movsx edx,byte ptr [00BFD0E4]  // value of counter
and edx,01
test edx,edx
je 00424842 
mov eax,[ebp+14] 

The problem is that now we're using frame limiter based on pause, this section of code is being seen 1/4 times.   So values may be

0, 4, 8, 12  ... and then slow will cause animation to stop because what it expects is

1 ,2, 3, 4  -


So it's either always calling the code... or always not calling it.  Rather than calling once every 2 frames.


There will be another counter causing the issue with missing effects...  the effect will be called every frame - or not at all - instead of whatever.

Might something like this be responsible for the sometimes missing / always not-flashing gunfire effects?
 
02.Dec.2016   imagelesskink   Menu Enhancement   Certain models and effects can overlap the battle menu.   PRIORITY

I had a look at this and the news isn't good.  Because the visible area is now expanded, no checks were done to ensure Z position for models.   The only solution I can see is to change Z of EVERY menu item to draw on top of models.  The problem is while I can do this for barrier graphic and so on, making the menu and menu borders do the same isn't as simple.  There's no existing Z parameter for it that I can see.

I may need to seek help elsewhere.  I had a look at the model stuff and located where aali's dll drawing the models, but that code is well beyond me and i'm not sure that would fix the issue at any rate.
 
thats interesting that the whole thing is linked with another bug...

i figured it would be a simple fix, whoops  :-D
 
and i still cant find the part that's causing the fire effects to disappear.  Went through all counters too.

It's 100% the same issue though.  The fire effect cuts out one in two frames.  And with current 60fps we have either fire effect always drawing each frame or not drawing at all. 

Funny thing is the bullet casings that are dropped look better when incorrectly drawn every frame - as you see the full animation.

i've had weird issues when porting sound out of a laptop hdmi before (certain audio playing, and not playing others), i dont know why, but sound coming out of hdmi can be finicky

i'd recommend using some usb speakers (or ones that plug into the 3.5mm jack) alongside the TV for sound, successfully troubleshooting your problem is a slim chance, not to mention a nightmare
 
I've located problem area for the firing effect.  I had to literally go down every function in the main battle draw function - branching out.
 
Good evening,

Im not sure if there was a change, but I am unable to use the remako mod with the new update. It was working prior by putting the remako files into custom and typing in satsuki under the custom id (same name as the folder within custom), thank you in advance.

See first post.  Use Hotfix 11.
 
Sorry for asking that out of of nowhere, but i seem to have crashes after some time of play. Currently using the Steam version with several mods install on top of it, like satsuki field and world map stuff. The thing is, the less mods there are, the later crash happens. More mods - sooner. So i have to guess it has to do something with texture overload or something like that. I've fiddled with texture cache size in options.ini with numbers like 256 1024 2048 etc... while some made the crashes to be much later, some numbers made the happen sooner. Is there anything in options.ini i can change that would fix the random crashes entirely?
