And this is the bug:weird white lines appearing at the text making it look bad.The problem vanishes if i change filtering mode and then put it where it was...

Umm... Why are you linking to your Hard Drive? We can't see what's in your hard drive you know. You need to upload the image to a webserver first.

Anyway, instead of attaching a screenshot tell us what game and what your specs are and what the problem is.

[emuxhaven]

ah which plugin you using?

Man Pete's OpenGL plugin is great for me and runs my DW7 game the best.

[brightman]

Are your menus a little messed up like the ones on mine? The DW fix doesn't really work that well, and VRAM does the same thing as the fix but it still doesn't look correct...

Oh well, I'll stick with the Soft plugin for this game for now.

[emuxhaven]

Well the menu's were screwed up in the Pete D3D plugin but his OpenGL they show up fine. And ya the Soft plugin is good too but this one is way better for me. WAY better .

I see that the menus are not transparent there, so I assume that you're using that DW7 textbox fix? That doesn't seem to work for me, so what settings are you using?

[bositman]

The problem appears at FF9 text..this is my config:(sorry for the screenshots thing...it works at some sites)

OK, set offscreen drawing to 3 and that should be fixed.

Edit: According to your first post, if the filtering mode is bad, change it. I use filter mode 5. But the offscreen drawing still sticks, change it to 3 or some battle text will be missing.

[bositman]

Ok will try thanks for the info brightman! http://www.emuxhaven.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Hey bositman, does FF9 run w/o slowdowns on your comp with that plugin? _ANY_ slowdown.

[brightman]

FF9 slows down before battle screen, but that's a CD-ROM problem. To avoid any slow down make an ISO.

I am not bositman, but I haven't experienced any other slow down...

or use a CD-rom with a large buffer (my CD-writer has a 2 mb buffer and no slowdowns)
