Title: Final Fantasy VIII intro weirdness
Post by: bchan009 on 2010-03-17 15:09:01

FF8 runs great using the new OpenGL driver by Aali, but  there's something that still bugs me.

Whenever you launch the game and the intro credits are supposed to play (stills of Squall and whatnot), instead the Squaresoft logo just keeps fading in and fading out.  So instead of seeing the game credits I just keep seeing the Squaresoft logo.  It's a shame, 'cause I like the stills they show during the credits.  I think I had this happen once when emulating the PSX version too.

Anyone know why this is and how I can fix it?  It doesn't affect gameplay but it is kinda weird.

Same thing happens to me, not sure if it's related to Aali's driver or not.

The same is occuring to me when using the cutom driver.

Are you guys getting a slow down/drop in FPS per screen?

I don't have any speed issues, but then again I'm running this on a reasonably beefy PC.

Turn off vsync if you are getting lag, and maybe disable shaders.

Aali fixed this in one of the older versions, but apparently it broke again in the newest version.

Use this version for now:

That version gives me the same results... Slow FPS.
