Street Riders - Graphics flickering and other issues

[ghost]

Game or games this happens in

ULES00276 - Street Riders

What area of the game / PPSSPP

In-game when you are racing you could see that graphics sometimes flicker and that lights are misplaced or bleed over.
Reported this as a Vulkan issue but it appears on every backend (except OpenGL because I don't use it).
Screenshots:

Can you include a GE frame dump? My guess is this involves culling.

I would bet this is two separate issues (far lights bleeding through, vs culled polygons at the edge of the screen).

Well I did 2 recordings because I was not sure if I reproduced it correctly on the first one.

Unfortunately, these frame dumps don't contain any drawing commands. Please make sure frameskip is disabled while making the GE frame dump.

I'm hopeful this may be related to the changes being discussed in #12058, and a frame dump would help verify this and ultimately the fix.

OK here is take 2.

Tried the latest dev builds and it doesnt seems like anything changed...
If it helps , the game seems like a almost direct PS2 port of a game called 187 Ride or Die.

Add this game to DisableRangeCulling compat.ini fixes the flickering issue.

DisableRangeCulling OFF

screen_flickering.mp4

DisableRangeCulling ON

no_screen_flickering.mp4

Remaining issue is depth/Z that could possibly fixed by #14833?

[ghost]

Slightly unrelated but I think that DisableRangeCulling ON needs to be applied to TOCA Race Driver 3 as well because it also exhibits a similar issue here (I didn't try it though but maybe @gamemulatorer could).

[unknownbrackets]

DisableRangeCulling no longer does anything on most devices outside Mali and Apple, iirc. I thought Intel supported the culling features. Outside those devices, I would expect the missing panels no longer to be an issue.

Is this still an issue with Vulkan and GL? Do you have shaderClipDistance and shaderCullDistance (Vulkan) or GL_ARB_cull_distance (GL)?

Seems like some of the graphics are fine now last I tried.
The lighting issues still appear though.

Others have reported me that if you got an NVIDIA GPU the game seems to be slower by a lot of frames.
Getting 10-20 frames.
I am on an AMD GPU and the game runs fine (althought on LInux) so I wonder if its a driver issue...

[ghost]

The light misplace is finally fixed now!
PPSSPP v1.13.1-63

PPSSPP v1.13.1 Stable

Fixed by 8260b46

Great, thanks for testing!

I'm gonna close this issue because I believe the other bug was already fixed.
