golden sun dark dawn djinn bug

Hello. I tried Golden Sun Dark Dawn with the latest version of DeSmume and if you have any djinn on standby they will show up transparent when you go into battle but on a real DS they aren't transparent.

Re: golden sun dark dawn djinn bug

Re: golden sun dark dawn djinn bug

Tried changing the 3d renderer and I got the same result, then I used nightly build d939459 with same result, and then I tried changing the 3d renderer again with that nightly build but got the same result.

Re: golden sun dark dawn djinn bug

post a screenshot and if possible find a video of this scene on hardware on youtube. i really doubt this mismatches the hardware. it's almost impossible for me to imagine how something accidentally gets transparent.

Re: golden sun dark dawn djinn bug

This is how it looks on my DS. (This was taken from my laptop)

And this is what it looks like on desmume no matter what renderer I use. (it's kinda hard to see but the djinn are there on the top screen)

Re: golden sun dark dawn djinn bug

weird, this is 2d, not 3d. and this is even the kind of thing we've bugfixed since 0.9.11

Re: golden sun dark dawn djinn bug

Very strange.

The djinn are sprites that are drawn in the OBJ layer. When debugging, it appears that these sprites are using the Transparent OBJ mode, which is forcing the sprites to draw transparent. Under normal circumstances, this is the intended behavior.

However, it looks like Golden Sun: Dark Dawn is doing something strange here, because even though Transparent OBJ mode is being used, the sprites are being drawn as opaque. I have no idea what kind of special rule the NDS is using in this case. Or maybe we're just using a faulty implementation of the Transparent OBJ mode.

It really is all very strange.
