PCSX2 Test ☆ Xenosaga Episode 1: Der Wille zur Macht
Testing out PCSX2 quality for Xenosaga Episode 1: Der Wille zur Macht.
A few graphical glitches still occur. Such as:
* No shadows under characters in the overworld. This is from using Skipdraw to remove them, as otherwise they glitch (minor).
* Some of the flashback scenes are completely black in Direct3D Hardware 11 or Software mode. Was able to get them to load in OpenGL Hardware mode (severe).
* OpenGL Hardware runs the game pretty well at the same settings, but is more pc intensive, and can cause background audio glitches as well as audio popping during heavy loading (minor).
* A couple of save points in the game are bugged, and will cause your game to crash. This is a bug that was carried over from the original version of the game. However, there's a downloadable patch to correct this. ► https://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-Post-your-PCSX2-cheats-patches-here?pid=603236#pid603236
* The save point patch causes a glitch with the save preview image, as it reduces the file size down to 1kb (minor).
Many cutscenes in Xenosaga are actually pre-rendered, so that's why the quality shifts so much between scenes. Unfortunately, there is no way to fix this outside of an official HD remaster.
