[Q] gsHWFixes

[shikulja]

roundSprite
texturePreloading
preloadFrameData
halfPixelOffset
autoFlush
and etc.
The games contain a lot of manual graphics fixes, are there any workarounds to reduce reliance on hacks, and make the renderer more.. correct?

[JordanTheToaster]

Yeah there is a way to make them more accurate it's called software mode.

@JordanTheToaster When I read blogs of switch emulators, they try to get around graphical bugs, globally, without using hacks, although they certainly cannot do without them
And of course, for hardware modes

PCSX2 is not a Switch emulator.

The team is aware that hacks are not ideal. However, there is no magic wand to wave and make graphics problems go away. They take time to both identify, and solve. If it were as simple as waving a magic wand and having them go away, it would have been done long, long ago.

If you have a support issue, you can ask on our Discord or Forums.

Sure, if you want things to run at 1fps. It's a trade off.

If you know of better ways of handling things, please submit a pull request. But otherwise I'd suggest not commenting on things out of your depth.

(Also consider that the majority of these are hacks for improving upscaling, which is a hack in itself)
