Kirby's Air Ride - Black Textures

[roundtree]

Hello,

First I would like to say thanks for making such an AWESOME emulator! I have been having such an awesome time with it. I would like to bring up one thing. There is an issue with Kirby's Air Ride on Android and iPhone releases of Dolphin emulator. The textures that load in game for the track are black. This problem may not exist on the PC versions, but I'm not sure.

   

The issue has never been reported on the issue tracker probably due to people's laziness (MYSELF INCLUDED). There were 3 reddit posts made on the subject, and 2 of them were deleted. There was also 1 post about the iphone issue, and I think that was deleted. If you guys like, I can try to submit the issue to the tracker, but I'm honestly not sure how to do it. If someone has a link, that would be appreciated.

I was having a problem submitting images, but I have resized one image just to show you what is happening. I have tried to tweak various settings with no luck so far. The game still sounds like it runs full speed and quite well! It's just having a texture issue at the moment. I am mainly posting here to make moderators aware of the issue and to ask if anyone has suggestions for the settings I have not tried yet. I have 18 other games on the android version running full speed. And honestly I never expected 1 or 2 games to run full speed on a phone.

Sorry, I should have mentioned it. I'm using a Galaxy S10+. I've tried both the Vulkan and OpenGL video backends with the same results, but I think you are right. It looks like a gpu driver issue to me. I also wonder if it could have anything to do with the gpu chipset. I just installed cpu-z on my phone. It says my video hardware is Adreno 640, and my cpu is qualcomm 855. It is also using Android 10. I just wonder if the gpu drivers could be out of date.

I'm pretty sure this issue existed before Android 10 too.

It has I checked it on my red magic 3 on the lastest version it's problems but I checked 5.0-9312 and 5.0-9269 the textures appear but the lighting does not work it's always dark and all level.

FYI, Dolphin was never released officially for iOS. There does exist an unofficial fork though.
