Has anyone noticed this? And how did that happen? - Lucario - 08-23-2015

I was just browsing my Dolphin game list and just noticed this white dot when I selected Super Smash Bros. Brawl.


RE: Has anyone noticed this? And how did that happen? - MayImilae - 08-23-2015

I checked some revisions I have on hand to see.

3.0 - No dot
3.5 - No dot
4.0 - No dot
4.0-41 - No dot
4.0-88 - DOT
4.0-364 - DOT
4.0-419 - DOT
4.0-926 - DOT
4.0-4784 - DOT
4.0-7373 - DOT

So, between 4.0-41 and 4.0-88. Lucario can you bisect this further?

EDIT: The only thing in that range that looks like it would apply is 4.0-78. Can you test 4.0-77 and 4.0-78?

I blame these

https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/commit/693cee36cb0b0194ca3e87d200d341b0330e05d5

Try 4.0-75 and 4.0-76, up to 4.0-78

If I had to guess, i'd say its 18abc33306bd1bfe8ecc590666da9d7fa3a9b86d (2x banner images).

Sorry for late reply and yes, looks like 4.0-78 introduced the white dot.

Thank you for bisect while I was doing other things, heh...

If you aren't aware, the Wii banners are actually twice the size of the GameCube banners. Dolphin has always downscaled the Wii banners to the GC banner size, but as of 4.0-78, on HiDPI displays it can use the extra resolution for "retina" banners. For everyone else it's still downscaled. In theory, nothing should have been changed for normal DPI users, but apparently comex did something that is causing these dots...

Btw, it's even worse in Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition! Four dots!

Lucario, do you want to make the issue report?


RE: Has anyone noticed this? And how did that happen? - Lucario - 08-24-2015

Thank you for explanation. It was interesting to see that RE4 Wii Edition has 4 dots.

I haven't made an issue report about it yet. I was hesitant in making one until now.

I will make one later today because I haven't slept last night. If you want to make one before me, then be my guest.

Oh my gosh, Super Mario Galaxy has a white dot in 4.0 and doesn't have one in 4.0-7373!
